If F-Secure is in Finnland, doesn't that mean they would have to delete user data on demand, undermining the service in doing so?

He shouldn't get a monopoly, but going from 1 to not in the top 400 overnight is suspicious. Not that Apple ever promised that wouldn't happen. But it is probably worth complaining about publicly in case that helps shake something

The 2016 Global Wealth Report from Credit Suisse Research Institute says you need $744,400 in household assets to be in the top 1% globally. I don't think most Americans making $32k/yr will have that level of assets. In a differen

If they do it anyway, you probably can't reasonably stop them short of quitting. Quitting likely would be best, but maybe you can't afford to right now. If it comes up while talking with a client, I would just tell the truth abou

There are various open source FPGA projects that do HDMI output. Some of them probably run on hardware with enough extra LVDS lanes to also do PCIE. The MKR VIDOR 4000 has connectors for both HDMI and Mini-PCIe, and the datasheet for the

In 2008 it wasn't a competitor for 2008 gpus, not read it intended to be. Still, the date would be good. It would be nice to see an update for pcie, uefi, and HDMI. Might even be easier to do today than that was back then.

I don't find that satisfactory. They don't have to explain themselves at all, but it would be nice know why the F5 purchase would charter that decision. Also if the F5 purchase makes you want to leave nginx, why lighttpd? They don

Lighting and sound are definitely more important. Under many circumstances a good sounding well lit 720 (or even 480) video is better than an average 1080 video. That does mean that 1080 or 4k is overkill though. Especial if the content inc

2006 would still be very usable and wouldn't require any special desktop or distribution. I think that as you go back further it will be web browsers that cause pain before Linux itself does.

Terry Gross is an excellent interview and I enjoy her work very much. However, the advice claims to be how to have better conversations. I'm not convinced that interviewing and having better conversations are the same thing. Further,

With the old one, you would probably need a mini DP to DP dongle anyway (I did for my displayport KVM on my 2012 Mini), so this isn't really worse, but it might mean you now need a different dongle.

I think that Ubuntu switching from the Unity Desktop to the Gnome Desktop in 17.10 is a real set back to its quality as a desktop and especially laptop OS and it will probably take until 20.04 at a minimum to really resolve this. I won'

If you look at the smaller print on those two pages, the Ryzen 7's single core performance is a little under the I7's, meaning if your workload doesn't take advantage of the extra cores then this only roughly an equal move.

They didn't loan him $1,000,000 all at once. The person used as an example initially borrowed $601,506. That seems high since he was told to expect the program to cost $400,000 to $450,000, but the original WSJ article explained that
