I'm not disputing that Ghostrank tracks you, but your framing and presentation of the facts is FUD designed to fit your wished narrative.

It is not "calling home" if you enable the collection... Privacy Badger isn't nearly as effective as Ghostery. Regarding Ghostrank -- isn't it better that ad companies learn to create non-intrusive, acceptable ads so tha

Nope, still only locked to the same code as your lockscreen. FWIW, on CM11 you don't need the other app: 1. Set a long password that you want for encryption 2. Enable encryption 3. Change lock to 'pin' or whatever

I said nothing about landgrabing...Just pointing to some of the failings of lollipop.

For inexplicable reasons, Lollipop removed silent mode. The new task switcher is an abomination and memory management is way too harsh (constant gc-ing)

As mentioned by acomjean, fecal transplant (FMT) is the typically how we restore "healthy" biota in the gut. Interestingly, only a handful of species play a large role in the regulation of gut microbiota and physiology/psycho

Those aren't particularly new things to study. We have tons of murine data on the subject and quite a few PhD students over the last 4-6 years have done their PhDs on microbiota and diet with themselves as the guinea pig, so to speak

Eh, as a researcher at the periphery of the Human Microbiome Project and American Gut project this has been the accepted (and already shown, experimentally) conclusion for quite some time.

That's resetting the PRAM and was required on old macs for some of the fimrware changes to actually take place (since the firmware was cached).

>own proprietary technology Surely they should all use BLE or similar? If umbrella disconnects (you're outside the 15-25m range), give an alert. If using BLE, the protocol is essentially open and other apps could build around it.

The juxtaposition of buying a This Old House subscription with bitcoin is fantastic and I may have to make that purchase.

Yup, I ran into the same thing about a month ago. I've since switched over to Route53 -- it's going to cost to $4/mn for my personal domains.

Erm, most Android flagships (and many non-flagship phones) don't support expandable storage and Google is going out of their way to remove support from Android itself.

This isn't a recent term at all? Back in the 90's people were selling dedicated, unmanaged hardware as "bare metal" servers. Bare metal simply refers to the fact that they're handing you an assembled server only --

IMO, PointHQ's quality and value proposition dropped after they were bought out / restructured into the Copper.io brand. Plus the change in pricing peeved me quite a bit.

µBiome is vapid consumerism in my opinion. They don't contribute data to the research community (as far as I know). The vast, vast majority of all bacteria are not culturable in a lab. That being said, we use rRNA/rDNA sequencing[

Depends, multidomain certs aren't horribly expensive. Non-EV multidomain certs usually start around $100 and cover 3-5 domains in the "base" certificate and you can pay $10-20/year more domains. EV multidomain certs star
