This looks sketchy as hell. No personal information attached at all and the domain has who-is protection. How do we know this is legit? (Edit: nvm, misinterpreted the website)

Then don't give your data to anyone. Perfect security doesn't exist, no matter how hard you try or how much money you throw at the problem. Breaches happen, end of story. So the real issue should be: When and how will a new secu

This is my first time discovering IPFS, so pardon if this my question is obvious/addressed elsewhere. At what point does the "network" become too small. I.e. if your computer can only reach 10,000 devices... are those 10,000

I'm no battery expert, but is it possible that they have several battery compartments that can all be charged simultaneously? Thus reducing charge time? Edit: Just read the latter part of your post after I wrote this. I think this is

I think it's more probable that they had the right intentions in the beginning, but then realized how much money these vulnerabilities might cost to fix because they had no easy way to resolve them without recalls. So rather than fix

"A bigger concern to me is the wood rotting from exposure to water or chemicals. Although reinforced concrete also "rots", but in different ways. Wood at least tends to sag before failing from rotting, unlike concrete."

I'm not saying they are, but phone connectors.. aka "Aux ports" were designed in 1878, with the 3.5mm rendition dating back to the 1960's. It's obsolete tech. We can easily be making headphones with connectors tha

I couldn't agree more. A guy that's been sitting on a grandfathered 3.5Ghz license approached us to lease it from him or partner with him to use it. He hasn't used it himself in over 7+ years.
