Depends. Some builds of Tomato (Toastman's for sure) put a firewall up on IPv6 by default. Asus's firmware does NOT firewall IPv6 at all. If you have shell access to your router, I suggest putting up a firewall on IPv6. The following should

And even when consumers use Google for mobile searches, they are often doing so on Apple devices like iPhones, for which Google has to pay Apple a fee. Those types of fees are large — equivalent to 25 percent of Google’s revenue in the qua

Not on the HTC Evo LTE (Basically the One X). When it got Jellybean battery life too a nose dive. I often see Maps accounting for 70% of the battery usage with Google Now.

This hasn't worked in the Android Gmail app for several years now. The option is there, but no matter what I select when replying to an email it will ALWAYS send it from the address it was sent to. So let's say I have 2 email address, me@gm

I quit Firefox as soon as Chromium for Linux was available. My problem with Firefox wasn't so much the memory leaks (though those were annoying), but rather that it was SLOW. Opening new tabs caused the whole UI to grind to a halt while the

Yeah it locks up Chrome for me, pressing Ctrl+w closed the tab after about 10 seconds. Chrome 20 on Ubuntu 12.04 x86_64. Core 2 Duo with Intel graphics.

Going to sleep does not cause the brain to actually power off. It's still running, your consciousness is just different. You still wake up from loud noises and light, and external stimuli can still influence your dreams.

That analogy doesn't hold. You could always freeze half the loaf when you get it. It's not the same with cable TV. A better analogy would be that you wanted to buy a loaf of bread, but the grocery store forced you to also buy hot dog and ha

I fail to see your argument. The owners make money without receiving dividends. It's reflected in the stock price. When a dividend is issued, the stock price goes down by exactly that amount. It's the exact same thing. If you want that mone

They probably do it because dividends are seen as somewhat obsolete, but firms have to continue paying them because they set a precedent. They are small because they have to be consistent or investors freak out, so the actual earnings aren'

Yeah, the problem is that every single app is written in JavaScript. It works better if you open the apps you use frequently and just leave them open. Then the page remains rendered and is much faster. Interestingly, it would be possible to

Sure, it would have been better if these features were in a 1.0 release, but Palm doesn't need to take away Apple customers right now. There are a lot of people who don't want AT&T service or don't want to pay the extra for the iPhone p

The problem is that they aren't deregulating the industry. Providers such as Comcast are legislated monopolies in certain areas, and do not lease out their lines to anyone else. There isn't anyone else to go to when these providers begin in
