I'm not entirely sure. I believe it has to do with the DRM implementation. While Widewine is the DRM in Chrome and Firefox, Edge uses something different[1]. I've seen people talk about Chrome being able to handle 1080p in ChromeO

Also Edge is the only web browser where Netflix can be streamed at 1080p and 4K. OTOH Chrome and Firefox are only at 720p. Safari is at 1080p though. (Netflix's windows app is another route) Edge also supports Apple's Live streami

I'm not sure if they have the software dev capability. Sure, they make nice UIs/apps on top of Android, but what about core computer science and domain specific skills? The new OS they tried to make was apparently full of kernel l

Hardware instructions for AES and GHASH make AES-GCM faster than ChaCha20-Poly1305. Apparently the most popular cipher mode used in TLS is AES-GCM and has seen a lot of attention, including its inclusion in the linux kernel[1]. OTOH, ChaCha

If you look around, the problem touted here was that formal verification was done, but independently for two different parts of the standard, in isolation. The layman answer that is formal verification should've been done on those syst

You are right, but only for the perfect 'VPN'. There are also many insecure VPNs out there, which don't cover all your bases (for ex: VPNs that don't tunnel DNS requests through the VPN is a common mistake) So while ther

>It also seems impossible to order the older version specifically. Yep. I've been trying for a while, but couldn't be sure if what I was looking at was version 1. Especially since the Alfa alternative is bulkier.

Note that there are two versions of that dongle. The version 1 has Atheros Chip[1] with the best wi-fi support but version 2 has a Realtek chip[2] with subpar support. AFAIK it isn't possible to get version 1 of the dongle today. My su

This is an insanely difficult project. If you want to replace any part from the logic board, your best bet is to replace everything . Changing any one thing (SoC, connector, etc) isn't possible because you'd have to be really g

Anyone have an idea why they would spend resources to do this? I have a feeling this has to do with the recent $18 modem article, but this is every iPhone.

Well the problem might be price fixing of RAM (speculation, btw). There's competition in CPU world but its a different matter in the RAM/HDD world. RAM has actually been getting more expensive. https://www.reddit.com&#x

Well 'smaller' and 'close to 50%' will have different effects, and I'm willing to bet that the number of individuals affected will be a lot, lot less than 3bn.

It isn't, except for the fact that most people who can code low level programs know it. But what you don't want into consideration is pretty much the important part of shipping a software you want to proliferate easily.
