Merchants can continue to accept mag stripe transactions but they do so at their own risk. Failing to switch to EMV by the switchover date in October means that any fraud that occurs via a non-EMV transaction is now the merchant's liab

In these types of situations it doesn't even make sense to try and surreptitiously make a recording of the call. I routinely record _all_ calls between myself and attorneys, accountants, advisors, partners, etc. and after asking permis

You are not awarded a domain name simply because you hold a trademark. There is evidence that domains have been awarded to trademark holders after a UDRP hearing and the trademark holder contested the validity of the registration. Read the

I remember using Qik[0] way back in like 2008 or 2009 and back then you could stream video in real-time to your public profile and it also saved the video for playback later. Looks like they were bought by Skype and I don't know if it

Outside of the outrage over "borrowing" the bandwidth on my WAN connection (which I agree is wrong to have on by default), how much of a help is this feature for distributing updates over the LAN? For example, I installed and full

I won't name the "Uber for Lawyers" service we recently used for a minor task, but it was just as bad as you might think it would be. I would not recommend anything like that to anyone, especially for trivial services. When h

Searches for "Unix less" or "Linux less" are spot on. Even "less command line" will get you there easily. It's all about context. And of course there are always the man pages, which is usually the best

I would imagine that if you were up to something like this, the laptop in question wouldn't be your daily driver. In which case you would likely want to physically disable inputs and sensors like cameras, mics, location hardware, etc.
