Especially if they're going to make claims like "Ultra Secure", it makes no sense to use 3DES... while it's not completely broken, it's certainly not the best option. AES would be both faster and inherently more sec

Might be too-little too-late, but anything that reduces adware/malware installation possibility is a good thing. It may not be enough to save SF, but at least it's going in a better direction now. Hopefully they will make other si

No doubt a move to give Hillary a boost. Unfortunately. Kinda sick of the DNC at this point as a Democrat myself.

Yeah maybe it's mostly specific to Windows. Wouldn't surprise me if that's the case. I was speaking from a Windows perspective (I should have specified).

Is this reasonably small enough not to cause performance issues? I notice it mentioned trying to keep the size more reasonable. Ad-blocking via hosts files can often lead to a noticeable performance hit.

Twitter is not bound by free speech. They can create whatever rules and restrictions they desire for their platform. They are also not a government entity and not arresting people for violating their restrictions. Ultimately this is not a f

Trying to convince myself to buy the darn thing. I use it sparingly but I have found nothing else that even remotely compares. Been trying out others lately (Atom, Komodo Edit, etc) and Sublime seems to just kill them from a performance sta

The only time I've ever clicked on them intentionally was on a site that had ads by The Deck network, because they were attractive ads and the service advertised was something I was genuinely interested in. I have yet to have this happ

Simple answer is: Yes. Though, I am of the belief that any scroll-jacking leads to a bad experience. It goes against what the brain expects and is almost never "delightful" enough to make up for the inability to exert normal movem

I've never enjoyed using LinkedIn. Especially running into its constant "add more people from your address book" prompts when attempting to use the site. The UI is extremely cluttered. The blog/status posts I find mostl

True, there are many implications here. I'm curious if there could be a legal remedy to this kind of convenience-hostage-taking.

Why does TechCrunch pull this crap? Their entire "article" is an image that links to Wired.com and nothing else. Of course I guess I shouldn't be surprised, their quality has always been subpar, fits in with the rest of the t

Is this an actual service accepting actual signups? If so, please realize your login form and signup process are not HTTPS and therefore do not even have minimum security.

Does this address the short lifespans of incandescent bulbs? Since the filament portion is essentially the same, wouldn't these new bulbs suffer from this same issue, and wouldn't that make them less efficient overall due to repla

It's possible that's the case. It does take far more than 10 days of devoting your time to something to truly make it a habit, especially when experienced in such a different setting that will be nothing like home. My original pos

It's possible that experiencing the extreme makes the "milder ways" much easier to make a habit. When you've just meditated for 11 hours a day for 10 days straight, 30 minutes a day seems like nothing. I think the retrea

Somewhat misleading headline by the Telegraph. This is a proof of concept and doesn't really hint at any "return" of incandescent light bulbs unless they reach their efficiency hopes and get them back on the market. Maybe a r

I had a Gigabyte board (GA-Z170N-Gaming 5) that was very unstable with Skylake. The newly released beta BIOS update resolved the issue. Not sure that it's related to this issue directly but it did involve random freezes.

Login/Register pages are not HTTPS-secured. This is a huge flaw/oversight and renders me extremely skeptical of the service and those running it, because it is an Internet 101 type of mistake that no one should be making these day
