I don't see it on either my MacBook or my iPhone. Both of which do automatic downloads. The album is on my "purchased" list so I can download it if I want to, but it wasn't pushed to my phone/Mac. This seems fine to

I agree Outlook is the best for business use cases but for a college student, iCal is great. I have a colour for each subject, an "events" calendar (non-academic, recurring) and a "significant" calendar for important eve

Linux is completely unusable for me. For instance, I've never found a good replacement for Calendar on OS X. The nicest calendar program I used on Linux had no CalDAV support (WTF?) and required me to use increment/decrement butto

I'm not entirely sure if CGN will provide some legal protection for pirates but it might make it harder to pirate content as you cannot open ports on CGN meaning BitTorrent will have less seeds which slows downloads. Afaik, IPv6 will

If you have that mentality, we'll never get off IPv4. If that happens, ISPs won't have a choice but to implement Carrier Grade NAT. That's bad for a lot of reasons, but mostly because many homes share the same address. Implem

My ISP (BT) has a full IPv6 implementation but it's not targeted at home users right now. I'll try contacting their customer support to ask about rollout plans but frankly, I don't think I'll get anywhere. Personally, I

I had* an IPv6 tunnel for about a year and only a few months ago I turned off IPv4 to see how far we've come. Practically everything broke. Nearly all websites I use on a daily basis didn't work. The frustrating thing is a lot of

They probably want to know what it's like to live on Soylent for an extended period of time. I did see a video by Motherboard/Vice where he drank it at a restaurant which I think misses the main point of Soylent. Eating the same f

There is nothing stopping you from eating food for enjoyment. Soylent replaces food for fuel. If I were to live on Soylent, I'd still go to restaurants with family and friends, and they'd probably be more enjoyable as I'd be

I don't like the design either, it's definitely one of DuckDuckGo's strengths, especially the new redesign. It's very nice.

If you search using POST, that isn't a problem. Also, referer headers aren't sent to unencrypted links so if https://duckduckgo.com sent me to http://example.com they would not see where I came from. Those

If you are using DuckDuckGo for privacy reasons, I strongly suggest you use https://startpage.com/ instead. DuckDuckGo isn't much better than Google; both of them hijack your links. This gives an opportunity to track w

I really think Eich is going to have to step down at some point. The backlash hasn't calmed down and Mozilla is going to risk losing more users over this. At some point you have to ask if it's really worth it. Does Eich bring more
