I don't use the automatic fill option, but LastPass can usually fill on demand even on no-paste sites. What is the actual logic behind banning pasting, anyway? Is it just anti-scripting? If so, it seems like locking the account after a

I think you may have misread? GP said that the XPS is inferior to the Carbon and that Macs were in a different category because of the OS and ecosystem and therefore not directly comparable.

Totally OT, but I'm see a lot of companies use lever.co for job applications. When you look at one of their application forms, there's nothing about privacy or what they will do with applicants data. Granted, many applicants'

Depending on the terms of the lease, yes. No, but if they say similar stuff on their own (i.e. Gab's official Twitter account, may tweets now deleted), you don't have to assume anything.

In theory, sure, sounds good. But the facts on the ground matter more than theory. The first fact is that there is precious little voter fraud of the type that can be stopped by voter ID laws. Did you hear about the woman from Texas who was

Not to be a downer, but the current top story is "Thousands of Native voters in North Dakota getting free IDs". The reason that's necessary is not not depressing. It's sort of like "Man who fell off click only bro

This isn't a polygraph. The article calls it a lie detector and we call polygraph tests lie detectors but the claimed mechanism here is a bit different. I'm not for it, but it's not a polygraph as described.

Yeah, but who did it? All five of them, one of them, another cop not at the scene but with access to the system? Contractors with system access? It's not enough to be sure that a crime happened. Which isn't to say there shouldn&#x

Why corporates continue to use third-party AV is probably a combination of momentum, marketing, and 'something must be done - this is something' but I'm just speculating.
