Because it is likely that a poster on an imageboard made the video themsevles, rather than reposting in an environment that may only permit simple image links, it encourages them to save it as webm instead of distilling to a GIF (not easy t

I know you're using that stock picture as an example of cookie-cutter-stepford-wives-american-hoa-creepiness, but taking a look at those from the air I see a really good use of interior space for low-slung structures, and some charming

I should point out that for many organizations that have "big data" sitting somewhere, it usually is structured to begin with because it was collected by a repeatable process; or at the very least each piece of the whole (if it is

Why does the idea persist in this day and age that because the public-facing component of an organization's website is down or being DDoS'd that it has anything to do with the internet or non-internet facing operations otherwise?

I use Pandora and Google Play to find stuff, and Bandcamp to pay artists and get downloads if they're there. I know streaming is a raw deal for creators sometimes.

It's visual irony. The characters depicted are usually the least likely to say the things associated with the trolling, and/or would be amusing to imagine the juxtaposition. This is why sometimes you sometimes see trolls use weste

The "cloud" is not organized in such a way as the article wishes it to be, to have ecologies to be explored, such that a field guide or niche study is appropriate. Lots of assumptions required to back the parallels, most of them o

What makes you think that? I recall reading previous articles linked from HN on this very topic that Facebook most strongly values the network size they can use in marketing sales pitches (i.e. the print circulation equivalent, the "re

I wouldn't call RHEL 6 ancient. Thankfully this may be going away at some point in the future, leaving it up to agencies to certify products or stacks on their own merits, or to instead have them be evaluated for specific purposes if s

So if I buy (or farm) a lure module and place it on a Pokestop, this is the same thing as if I spray painted "Free Puppies" on the side of a panel van and drove it in front of a school? Because I think that's the bottom line

Firefox has a UI that is rendered in web components and javascript just like the displayed pages in the tabs. This technology is called XUL. The Gecko layout engine renders both XUL and HTML styled with CSS. Traditionally this was all handl

Absolutely this. Also I think that since it's so much easier now to get access to porn and even toys easily / privately that you don't need to go find an encounter to get off, unless you actually want to be social about it. A

For me, an interesting take-away from this survey is that people assumed that _scientists_ would jump the gun, that "...scientists would rush to offer each of the technologies before they had adequately tested or even understood them.&

Only permit logins from a client access device that you also manage and/or control. Like a Bloomberg terminal.

It's available, but the concept has issues when implemented simplistically on a multi-processor system. (I'm not familiar with the arguments as to why; sorry). You also have to request this behavior explicitly, and I think under c

For this role OCS worked better before Skype for Business. We had click-to-call, voicemail, forwarding configuration with Outlook integration. It worked great. Then we went to 365 and Skype, ostensibly as a cost saving measure, and now none

If you release your snapshot used for mirroring via rsync right away as part of the cron job, and only take it and maintain it in CoW mode during off-peak hours, then it's usually a good compromise for getting something crash consisten

The issue is that local privilege escalation to root will always be a thing, even with seccomp limiting syscalls visible in a container. sVirt (SELinux as it relates to VMs and containers) can make sure that even with unintended root escala

3500k is common in CFL, but you have to want to be investing in CFLs. My biggest issue with them is size limitations. Lots of places they won't go.

They're canceling it _because_ it was successful. The issue is that by using virtual Master Cards they have to pay part of the interchange fee to Citi (or was it Bancorp?). Not only that, but if you were backing it by a credit card, th

The Shield portable is a goofy looking PoS that you can't easily put into a pocket. For $200 the Nintendo or Sony options are a lot nicer. The barrier to entry for Android gaming is lower, but no one is going to develop for the form fa
