I don't agree with all their business practices, but if you're looking for an alternative, Garmin watches do all of that well these days. I'm quite happy with my Forerunner 735XT.

You're correct, but from my understanding shifting the trust to the FPGA is a productive move as an potential attack is much more difficult to execute. Bunnie explains on his blog [1] better than I can: > The CPU is, of course, the

In a similar vein, is there a cost effective way to purchase a single ipv4 address? Just for the novelty I think it'd be cool if I could spend ~$100 to have an ipv4 address that's permanently mine.

At the risk of wanting this to be something that it's not - what's the reasoning behind not targeting Precursor towards running (embedded) Linux? With a little more RAM it seems like the specs would make it a great fit for Linux,

Yes - I have to say it is a little frustrating that there isn't an easy way to find new postings. Would be great to be able to sort comments by new. Or maybe there's a way to do this with third party services?

I'd be free to choose the version of software to run on it. If they were to, for example, put out a release that broke compatibility with a niche game that I enjoyed, I could downgrade and continue to play that game. But, honestly, it&

Huh, that's a really nice way of looking at it. I suppose I was thinking that it's my device that I've paid for so there shouldn't have unnecessary restrictions imposed on it. But it's true that I'd prefer a re

I'm curious, how do Nintendo justify such an anti-consumer protection? It seems like it only really has upside for them.

Am I wrong to assume that cloud vendors are the most worried about these sort of exploits? Having exploits that would allow customers running on the same hardware to access each others' data seems like it would be disastrous for them.

Honestly, I think that's what makes working at a large "web-scale" company so attractive to me. When you're running at that sort of scale you can't afford to be as apathetic about performance so there's a lot m

I'm not any epidemiologist, so if someone knows more please correct me, but I read that viruses with a high mortality rate are much easier to contain. Mainly because the virus more naturally dies out as it kills its hosts. That was one
