I agree. But I wonder how much resistance you would get from the military, veterans, military families, and so on who make the argument that for every robot we make a human soldier doesn't have to be put at risk. I don't agree wit

There are other reasons why you shouldn't install apps from Facebook and LinkedIn[0], but one thing I do wish is that there was an easier way to tell Chrome to default to requesting Desktop sites[1]. The state of most mobile websites i

I think there's room for interpretation but that in cases like this, it is indeed a bug. Many applications are programmed this way but I firmly believe that an application needs to honor the TTL of a DNS request for any subsequent conn

For plex users, if your friends can access your plex server, this is trivial. One of you starts watching a movie, the others start watching the same movie and it asks them "would you like to resume from X". Just say Yes and you&#x

Oh I get it now! lol at the irony of my comment, I honestly had no idea. I personally wouldn't use this for my blog because in my opinion a blog shouldn't require Javascript to display content, but I know I'm in the minority

It seems to require Javascript to load the content. Is there information about this elsewhere that doesn't require Javascript to view?

I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not. When I'm the "thing" being sold, the onus is on the vendor to provide a value that keeps me there. LinkedIn seems determined to be as anti-user as possible, and as some

This is the exact reason why I refuse to give amazon a non-prepaid visa card. Where I live, every grocery store sells them without requiring ID.

Iptables applies to all processed packets. One of the common gotchas though is that if you add a rule to allow "Established" connections, and then try to add a new rule after that which says "block IP X", that will no

> "Global companies should be able to share information globally." This is an interesting point, and to me it seems to be pitting global companies against individual countries. This makes me feel uneasy because I feel there&#x2

Subscribing to high volume mailing lists from gmail is something I would actually advise against. I had legitimate emails bouncing because the mailing list had put me over the maximum number of emails that a free Google account can recieve

Curiously, having to email <mailinglist>-unsubscribe@server.com to unsubscribe from a mailling list is, to me, preferable to having to login to a website in order to unsubscribe from the same mailing list. I think it's because I&

When it's trivial to re-subscribe if you want to, I'd prefer that they do include a one-click unsubscribe. I'll deal with anyone who maliciously unsubscribes me from a mailing list that I want to be subscribed to, and this wi

How easy is it to unsubscribe from those newsletters? Is there a one-click unsubscribe link that doesn't require you to login or enter anything before unsubscribing you? If I've subscribed to a mailing list or newsletter and there

I've got a very similar anecdote. Added songs to iTunes outside of the iTunes store, and months later went back to play the song but couldn't find it in iTunes. The first few times I chucked it up to me being crazy and misremember

Maybe what Github needs is a way to put an issue or all issues for a project into Review Mode where every comment posted to the issue by a non-contributor must be reviewed and accepted by project members before it is posted. This would allo

Its good that they own up to it but I'm getting a bit tired of hearing "we take security very seriously." I feel like this phrase has become the mating call of organizations who aren't serious about security until they g

Thank you for making these points, I'm just disappointed at how often they need repeating for some people, do you know of a website that explains the reasoning behind not relying 100% on JavaScript for your website? There's mother

This must be the simpler solution compared to that though. Maybe if people stop dressing up like seals (big black wet suit) they won't look so tastey to the seal eaters.

If you harmed 1000 people by taking a dollar from each, to me you've robbed 1000 people. But, there has to be room for lenience in every law. Was it intentional, was it a computer error, did each person just forget to pickup their chan

I use a similar feature on Android. What I really want though is a very simple feature. I don't want my phone to accept phone calls unless the number is in my address book already. Its so straightforward and already implemented in othe

BBC Panorama had an excellent episode exploring these very questions. At least I think it was Panorama. I tried searching for it but all I get are hits about Jimmy Savile. They found a young man who selfidenties as a pedophile, who was actu

Yes but how do you do that when the supreme court has ruled that money equals free speech? There's lots of people who can see that money in politics is the problem. How do we solve it though? Wait for a supreme court judge to die and h

An interesting situation would be if one person got the device knowing their room mate was privacy conscious. The other person has now lost their reasonable expectation of privacy in their own home and might not even know it.
