Hi Ted. This event seems to have been triggered from abuse complaints - and involved the registrar not reaching out to the client in question. Curiously enough, I had a very similar incident with Namecheap last week: an unsubstantiated emai

I love namecheap - customer for over 10 years - but a recent incident has me rethinking my patronage. We recently received a "lawyer DDOS" - where a law firm sent multiple letters claiming /alleged/ trademark infringemen

Many people jump out of planes in 200+ km/hr of wind without getting snapped into pieces. Perhaps it's comparable to that.

Depends on the border. For about two years after the attacks, the A1 (major highway between France and Belgium) was restricted to one lane, with barrier chicanes before reaching the border. Eventually the three bored policemen at the border

Hi - small note from someone who has worked extensively with homeless. While each bullet point you make has a superficial logic, they are (unfortunately !) Incorrect due to erroneous assumptions. If the "problem" was as simple as

I found that XMPlay replaces Winamp perfectly. Tiny footprint (less.than 1MB), support for all modern codecs, active development, API and plugin environment, streaming. Combined with the minimal skin, it's my first install on any new w

Do they actually have GPS? The Chinese bikes have a dirt cheap BLE module; the App pulls GPS data from your phone. Which is to say, when people displace the bikes "manually", the maps are no longer accurate.

Absolutely. The Turkish army occupy a few buildings on the "main road", with regular patrols, floodlit streets, etc. When we were there, there was also a UN presence, about 1km down the road from the Turkish HQ. There's a con

Supermarket checkouts in France are woefully slow and ineffecient. I've lived here for 10 years, and it drives me crazy. - Cashiers do not pack for you. (Most other countries, they will bag as they go. Groceries are plonked on the othe

Furthering the other replies, manufacturing is hard . In a similar vein to the way software devs roll their eyes when a client says: "..It's just a tiny change, it won't take any time", there are so many hidden gotchyas

For anyone interested, Iran has some amazing examples of mind bending mosque decoration. If you're a fan of maths, tesselation, art or architecture, it's all there. They have a style that I can only describe as 3D honeycomb stalac

You are correct, but tethering ability is controlled by your carrier, meaning many have it disabled or charge for more if you tether. The wifi to wifi ability is fantastic when you are in hotels, etc that charge per device. It's the o

The one missing "tweak" - open tethering. MyWi was an amazing Cydia app, allowing for 3G > wifi, and even wifi to wifi sharing. The iPhone still feels totally crippled without this functionality, and there's not even any w
