I love my MacBook Pro. Really, I do. And chances are, I'll probably use some iteration of a PC (in this case, I use an eGPU so I could replace my desktop entirely) until I, well, stop using hardware. I also use macOS and Windows on it.

One of my favorite musicians (Rhys Fulber, mostly due to Conjure One and Delerium for me) started releasing music on Bandcamp. Admittedly, the new cd really isn't my cup of tea, but I bought it from there anyway. Can't remember wh

Ah, that’s a fair point. I read it as facial recognition tying into the card stored in the system.

Outside of being a 2FA/fraud prevention measure, what's the benefit of facial recognition here (I also imagine a lot of your customer base would be opposed to the idea of someone storing facial data for this, but I digress)? The c

Dunno, having an actor to oversee the behavior of telecoms would be an advantage, not the opposite. In our neighborhood, we're waiting on Spectrum to finish their infrastructure install. We were initially in talks with AT&T to come

On the T-Mobile side, were they leveraging the "Binge On Us" or similar setup? I have T-Mobile One w/ the international one plus or plus one (can't remember. The naming kind of stinks) add on and I've never noticed

Since we're talking music, I'd probably want a hybrid. This for passive protection, but say auto-extension free of charge if the creator still trades on it. So Aerosmith who continues to do performances of their work would be able

I found out about this breach Friday via The Verge. At that point in time, I didn't receive an email/text. So for a while, I figure I'm not part of the subset of users. Then, at 9:11pm that day, I received the text message.

Epic, well Tim Sweeney, bemoaned Microsoft for pushing to get developers to release apps/games within their store. I think Epic feels, and probably rightly so, that they can go the direct route and come out okay. And if they judged inc

the fingerprint reading API (not sure the name in Google's world) isn't dependent on Google Play Services, is it? If it isn't, in theory they could still implement it to be the confirmation for purchasing I'd imagine.

@ynniv - because if you can coax a friend who isn't on anything but Facebook to use Signal over, say, Messenger, then it is a net win. Is it perfect? No. Is it a better situation than the current? Yes.

Disney has lobbied for increased copyright durations. In fact, by what you are saying (life, remaining I assume, plus 70 years), Disney couldn’t do anything with Alice until 1968 which would be 2 years after his own death. I’m all for compa

I use Pocket, but I think these sorts of things (Feed readers, tagging bookmarking services, etc.) should be outside of the browser by default. From there, you can have addons that may be more first class citizen than others in that they in

In our environment, a vendor would probably be better served to offer a no frills basics thing and then just sell customization support (or painless customization). You could probably check off every bulletpoint imaginable and then we would

How many different theater chains are around you? This isn't like streaming services where it may not make sense to have Streaming Pass A and Streaming Pass B if they primarily share content. Quality ones here, 2. Total this-or-that pr

yeah, I'll agree here. Being able to slap an annotation on a method in C# is one of the major pluses. [Authorize] in ASP.NET MVC (Core as well I believe?), the various ones in Entity Framework, etc. Very useful.
