The difference is plain as day. I currently use the closed back Beyerdynamic DT770 with an amp for listening to music, but exclusively the Bose QC25 for work and commuting. The main difference between my Beyerdynamic DT770 and the Bose QC25

There's no hidden motive here. It's interesting work, but usually this type of research is done on malware samples and the like, and not "regular" apps. That's why I'm curious if the authors should fear legal r

I was thinking along the lines of something like this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-circumvention If the app uses DRM (e.g. Netflix), I would imagine that some of these laws could apply depending on the country,

Then you could just sniff the traffic, or if you can't MITM the connection because of pinning etc. then you could still run the app inside a debugger and get the keys that way. Note that if the keys are valid for all users, you'd

Ignoring the results here, isn't the act of disassembling random Android APKs illegal? Theoretically, could one of the affected companies sue them? Also, if services only give you a single secret key per developer, what is the alternat

I went through 3 different Crucial M4s, all replaced under warranty due to unrecoverable read errors and subsequent data loss. That model really had some serious issues at the time.

I remember both that Windows 95/98/ME had it's issues and that at some point you could even buy Linux distros in a box next to the Windows boxes. But how do you see the push Canonical did with Ubuntu? As I remember, the senti

I happen to use Linux as my only boot OS and I actually own a copy of Photoshop, Illustrator and Acrobat that I use semi-regularly. Everytime I want to use either, I have to spin up a Virtualbox Windows VM just to edit a few pictures. The a

You don't need Adobe Cc on Linux if you're going with one of the alternatives. And both Gimp and Inkscape are Linux applications, GIMP is even part of the GNU suite!

Germany != Switzerland. There are lots of cultural similarities, but also vast differences. I wouldn't recommend making that statement in a group of Swiss and German people. (For the record I'm Swiss, but I think most Germans woul

Downvotes? The look of the original website (the URL without the "better" [1]) much closer resembles the original c2 wiki style. The CSS is not even needed in this case. [1] http://motherfuckingwebsite.com

There are some that just show up as an audio USB device, which is pretty nice. I have this one, been using it with Ubuntu 14.04 on my W520 Thinkpad: https://www.amazon.com/Sennheiser-BTD-500-Bluetooth-Dongle/d... It do

I've also always gotten everything to run with just xargs and minimal scripting. For my taste GNU parallel gets recommended a bit too quickly e.g. on Stackoverflow when the standard tools would do just fine. Your linked SO question is

Lots of third party code is tested only on the latest LTS version, so using LTS often makes everything easier.

People sometimes are just thick, focusing on "quirks" instead of the content. I get that people might disagree with his views, but why would they think he's not worthy of respect?

The one thing that truly matters is how they determine if your use is "embedded" or not. And they left the answer out of the FAQ: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/articles/javase/faqs-jsp-1... >

It's not just the formatting, the content is also rather unimpressive. How can you not be able to find your way through a startup codebase if you came from a corporate job, where presumably you worked on much bigger projects? My takeaw

Great list. I've encountered almost all of these situations before and it's no fun if your bash script goes berserk. I would add that you should use an explicit shebang such as #!/bin/bash instead of #!/bin/sh

You don't need x86 when mobile, legacy desktop apps don't work on small phone screens anyways. When mobile, you use native ARM for low power, when connected to power and a screen/mouse you can use more power and emulate x86 o
