   I get symmetric gigabit in HK and it’s really handy for quick access to my NAS from anywhere.

   I haven’t looked at the actual content of the repo, so this is pure speculation. One of the possible reasons for stripping it down is for tighter control over real time performance. To achieve smooth audio playback, you either need to ensur

   This is when I wish we could demand that Adobe release the source code to Flash, at least the player part.

   And then I just found out I have it in my Steam library already. I don't even remember when I bought it.

   Now you made me look up The Witness... Are you talking about this? https://store.steampowered.com/app/210970/The_Witness/

   Does that mean it will be available for reading online as well?

   Wait, what? You clearly don’t know me because my name is not Karl.

   Why am I getting downvoted? Am I not raising a valid point about physical privacy? It’s not like I’m calling anybody here nosy.

   I can’t use pen and paper because I’m surrounded by nosy people who don’t know to respect my privacy. And if I put some kind of lock on a physical diary or something, they complain that I am hiding something.

    This is despite their claim that they fight for Internet users' privacy.

    I'm really looking forward to 8GB of RAM. 4GB feels pretty anemic nowadays when you know that Firefox or Chrome will happily eat up the RAM with a moderate number JavaScript-laden tabs open.

    Say what you want, but I grew up in Montreal, Canada, and my impression is that Catholics there are quite liberal. I went to a Catholic high school and we were given proper sex ed, including how to properly put on a condom, with the assumpt

    Well, it mostly means I'm Baptised and I went through Confirmation and all that, but I still don't have to agree with everything the Pope/Church says regarding very specific issues . I still agree with the general message of

    I do know that "Christian" is a very broad label (Catholics, lots of different Protestant churches, Anglicans, and Eastern Orthodox). Don't assume I'm ignorant. XD In fact, I'm Catholic myself, but I don't give

    This makes me wonder what’s going to happen to the partnership between Atlassian and Slack.

    It’s also possible that it’s for tax compliance. When doing online commerce, it is sometimes required for the merchant to charge different tax rates depending on the location of the buyer, and then remit that tax to the corresponding govern

    A few years ago, I just designed my own business card to include a QR code that encodes a vCard. No need for this NFC stuff (and it works for phones without NFC).

    Consider this: when you initially submitted your data, the NN said you’re fine, and so you forget about it. Later on, the NN is tweaked and would say you actually probably have cancer, but you don’t know because you never bother checking ag

    I have a blog generated using Pelican, using a slightly modified version of the pelican-bootstrap3 theme. This makes me feel pretty guilty when I realize that my blog is loading 118.18 kB of minified (!!) css, and almost 200 kB of web fon

    Yeah, I, too, found that to be a really odd piece of advice from a security expert. If I were the Brian (but I'm not), I would have asked followers to not trust the site until the certificate issue is fixed, even though I "kno

    I'm surprised that Brian Krebs still uses Comodo. Why not LetsEncrypt with automated renewal?

    I'm depressed, anxious, and lost. I'm 38, married, and I have two daughters. My career seems to be stuck. I work in IT, but I don't think I'm actually very good in any specific aspect of it. I suck at debugging. I write

    I can kinda understand GitLab's reasoning (correct me if I'm wrong): if the conflict resolution needs to happen on the destination branch and the PR author has no permission to directly commit into the destination branch, then the
