Agree, this is super strange. No one wants to use DHE because of the performance impact. Windows 7 and later do already support ECDHE + GCM, but only when combined with ECDSA. In practice, nobody can use ECDSA because old clients still n

After spending some time in Hong Kong, these are the motivations that I've seen for jailbreak: 1. Piracy. Apps are expensive on iOS, but Hong Kong loves brands. Having an iPhone is a fashion symbol. Also, access to pirated content

Yuck. This is a good example of why you're supposed to reduce the dimensions of the video if you want to reduce bit rate with H.264. If you simply reduce the bit rate, you end up losing detail. e.g. for a video with a typical level

Hosed. Getting timeouts for /details. 2 issues in general, though: (1) The BitTorrent protocol is not hospitable to linear downloading. (2) Pirated video content is extremely incompatible with browser-based playback... stuff like MKV

Yuck. Sorry that you had a bad experience. It sounds like you hit a nasty sync bug on the destination machine. We've been patching a bunch of issues with client sync reliability over the last year. It's hard to diagnose at this

I love ExpanDrive and use it every day. Thanks for adding OneDrive support in v4 :) ExpanDrive's WebDAV performance has been kind of rocky, though. From what I can tell, it doesn't appear to support byte range seeking. To get t

Altering text files is sometimes an issue in OneDrive for Business, which is a totally separate service based on SharePoint. Consumer OneDrive never alters your text or binary data. Photos are only scanned for nudity if they're broadl

Hey pling, I work on the OneDrive team. We definitely don't do the type of content scanning that you're describing. I wouldn't be comfortable with that. The only time we currently use file hashes for automated takedown is

+1, weight has a huge impact on the user experience of a smartphone and doesn't get enough attention in specs. There is a significant comfort difference between light phones in the 100-150g range (latest iPhone, Nexus, Galaxy) and heav

I could see this backfiring. If this gains any momentum at all, the media response from the ISPs will be obvious: "We appreciate that web developers are embracing their right to throttle certain customers. We're very happy that

People complain that OS X requires apps to be signed by Apple (by default). But in reality, it's the sanest solution to this problem. When the OS enforces signature checking, you don't have to worry about whether it was downloade
