I assumed the goal of those systems was for end users with no system or programming knowledge. hability to escape sandbox will only cause pain and security holes, while serving one or two advanced users.

all those projects are dead on the water thanks to DRM. I look into them from time to time. If your source is a topbox or smarttv itself, you can't get any signal because those things use drm protocols that only allow one source. you c

lol. something fried because google hardware is notoriously bad, not "because you installed linux". Hardware is not supposed to fry because the software told it to.

I'd like them to conciliate this rule with companies whose only business purposes are to sell that data, like TLO from the other HN frontpage article. Even ignoring the fact that their data finds way into automating identity theft fin

contributing to your social critic on everyone having an opinion; why not see the first c-section as the root of the problem?

the very arguments the article gives to shun off this attack is what i think makes it very possible and the best option. Scale. NSA demand backdoor on CPUs. other States figure out how the backdoor works and how access to it is allowed on t

you can abstract as much as you want, but at some point you will have to interact with a disk. heck most http proxies abuse the "file" concept in linux kernel as a way to get memory cache of disk data for free. see https:/&#

I disagree completely. Exclusive content is not to protect against netflix becoming a monopoly. it is for the studio to try to be the monopoly! if your content has a price in the open, streaming platforms can then compete on price/qual

the standard is pretty clear and give options to make a cheap or expensive product. the shock is that apple and samsung both decide to make very expensive products, that implements the "cheap" options as a way to lock consumers. .

intel is failing benchmarks, security vulns all around. Nvidia is failing to deliver price/perf they promised years ago. amd is the opposite of both and it's stock continues to dive. go figure.

yes they are. nhtsa and others require so much preparation and analysis for each test that for the cost of one run the makers can run upwards of 1000 chasis compresion test which will cover every angle imaginable. so yes, the manufacturers

Every car was getting the top score until nhsta realized they were all "cheating". by cheating I mean going for the low hanging fruit: they all saw crash tests only doing frontal crashes and sideways, so they beefed up against tho

the goal is to "step in when excell starts to get in the way" I doubt they will ever care about any of that. a "side loaded application" will likely be the answer to most of those comments.
