My initial (sure to be expanded) list of things I hate about iTunes 11: 1) The option of a dark background in grid view has been removed; the white background is horrible; 2) Sometimes the expanded view works well (the algorithm is clearly

I don't view CP as a free speech issue, I just think its prohibition is an arbitrary, puritan social construct. Same applies to indecent exposure laws, I guess. At what point did we decide the human form is indecent in its unclothed state,

Indeed, you're probably protected by safe harbor/mere conduit laws in most jurisdictions, but you're still liable to become the subject of law enforcement investigations and have your equipment seized. More hassle than it's worth.

Do you mean as a relay or exit node? Exit nodes are the ones that take the heat. I would be very surprised if you've run a Tor exit node for a considerable period of time without incident, even if it's just abuse notices from your upstream

Of course, I should have specified I was referring to exit nodes. Without the exit nodes, the relay nodes are nothing; just a bunch of people playing hot potato with encrypted data and no one prepared to take the heat by attaching their det

It's plausible deniability, but that alone isn't sufficient to avoid prosecution in most jurisdictions. The standard in most jurisdictions is proof beyond reasonable doubt. I don't think the OTR plausible deniability would be considered rea

If a non-profit can keep on top of all the different codecs, profiles and containers, why can't Microsoft? By all means leave the bleeding edge professional codecs to third party software, but most people only use VLC to play rudimentary fo

1) Oh absolutely, I don't dispute VLC remains useful. I just think it's a shame that we still need VLC. To most of its users, VLC is "that thing that my friend told me I'd need to install to play these videos because for some reason Windows

1) It's 2012 and we still need third party software to watch videos? I understand VLC does other stuff, but the reason most people use and install it is just to watch videos; 2) This seems like an awful lot of money, not to mention the prec

If I understand correctly, the key feature of OTR is its plausible deniability; the messages you send do not have a digital signature that a third party can use to verify their integrity, but the other party in the conversation is able to v

The sheer number of Herman Miller SAYL chairs and iMacs is unbelievable, not to mention the sheer number of employees. Is Living Social even profitable? Edit: To answer my own question, a $558 million loss last year: http://www.bizjournals

It might have some benefit somewhere along the line, but the cost of day-to-day abuse (or plain old misuse) would be far greater. Cost-benefit analysis says no.

Yep, if OVH were referred to it would only have been in a negative context, e.g. outing a P2L (Pay to Leech) site or someone seeding files to torrent trackers.

OVH are most certainly not popular with the scene! That said, OVH is extremely popular with those involved in piracy more broadly, and their servers are used extensively as seedboxes.

The extra profit from pre-emptive upgrades is probably cancelled out by the increased cost of warranty repairs. Repairs get more complicated, more costly, and more consumers end up having their devices swapped out where previously individua
