It is entirely possible that they have spoken to the artist. Let's not jump to conclusions about it being a "rip off".

Yea, it's pretty awful. Beyond that you also have to trust that the phone is doing what it says (not broadcasting wifi beacons when wifi is off). A faraday caged messenger bag has been on my list for stuff to make. I've also been

Yea, I'm thinking of ditching my sim card or living mostly in airplane mode with wifi. I don't want to be part of a system where even the cell phone carriers are selling my real time location.

I tried using hack once, spent a few days on it. It was a total disaster from a user-developer perspective. The documentation was poor and certain modules (the xhtml or equivalent module in particular) would not work due to versions or depe

Speculation: Zerodium has an 8.x RCE and burns the 7.x noscript bypass to get users to the new version. Added bonus of publicity.

I went on the other day to buy a specific brand of pants. I was in the app. I searched, clicked the first link, seemed like it was coming from a third party seller. Selected the size I wanted and ordered. It arrived and was a completely dif

It is observation, with low emotional reaction, in the present moment. The classic example would be focusing on your breathing. You may have thoughts arise during this time, but you do not react to those thoughts, instead just acknowledge t

My understanding is that NK works out of a Chinese city Shenyang. [1] Their lack of internet infrastructure does not really matter in that case. As well, if they are working out of China you have to assume they are exchanging information wi

This is just a "slippery slope" argument. If you do not give people a place to use the restroom, do not be surprised when they use the restroom. If people do not have a place to sleep, do not be surprised that they still need to s

Doesn't this statement: >I have a high churn rate (install/uninstall ratio) of about 70-80% Contradict this statement: >I know its an app with a viable market, and has potential. Other suggestions: >I am getting 3-5 free

What is someone supposed to do if they are tired or need to use the restroom but do not have the means to get a hotel? I would rather sleep in my car on the side of the road and get fined than continue driving in a sleep-deprived state. I u

Apple is the gold standard of mobile security and also a shining example of a closed source, proprietary ecosystem. This is coming from a dedicated Android user who has a preorder for a Librem 5. I did not order it for security reasons, I o

Will you short the S&P 500 right now? If the answer is no, just hop on the index fund train. It might be near an all time high, but it can go higher while your money is sitting idle. Maybe it will drop and wipe out most of or more than

Germany has a pretty awesome computer security base already. Look at CCC. The government may need to better align their values with the people's to harness that talent though.

Yea, I really like Go because it isn't C++2049. I was able to get writing it quickly, and I don't have to think too hard about what the right (read: most clever) way to implement something is given all the language features. I lik

I would really like to see an analysis for an optimized swipe layout. The biggest goal would be to reduce ambiguity of words.

Price follows buyers and sellers. It is not some magical property that miners are chasing. They produce a product for costs and aim to sell it above those costs.

You can sell at a loss if the asset is dying off, but for the most part an actor isn't going to sell for less than their costs.

A currency with no mechanism for monetary policy is not going to be adopted. Bitcoin is purely deflationary for more reasons than just people losing their keys. For example, a fixed reward split between a growing group of miners will also c

My SO and I were discussing her former boss who was an amazing people person. She would flatter people and curry favor, but it totally worked. It was hard not to like her because she was so good at it. Bringing those skills of building conn

I love the front of this thing but the back is absolutely hideous [1]. I'd be vying for one if it was a flat hatchback. 1. https://images.carscoops.com/2018/08/cbfacc26-kalashnikov-cv...

EFF did a similar thing with the Best Buy / pedo doctor case. This doctor has child porn on 5 devices, but the search was questionable so it got thrown out. EFF never mentions this fact and instead make a big stink about the Best Buy e

Yea, similar thing happened to me. Went in for a physical and was at a 10.5 for D. I didn't really realize I was in such a rut until it changed. I joke now that the way to know I'm depressed is when I drive slow and would be willi

I did on shrooms once. It had some nice patterns because my pupils were so dilated. Thankfully not blind.

I think you're right. There was just an article about blue light speeding blindness, but the flux author chimed in and said screens are less than 5% of the hazard weighted irradiance of the sky. [1] I'm not totally sure what that

This is a great idea. It could really turn into a study group for new papers. You might want to edit your post / title. I don't think I would have known that it was for academic papers if I hadn't have opened the link.

I just ordered one of these last week. I'm stoked to have a phone that I control. It will be amazing as a dev to just write an application, scp it over, and have it draining my battery in no time.
