Chrome doesn't have the ability to edit cookies built-in, either, does it? All I can find is viewing and deleting.

I found keeping my Yubikey Neo on my actual keychain to be a bit inconvenient, but wearing it around my neck like a dog tag has worked great. Sadly, I've been unable to convince my wife that it's worth it. She won't wear it

Nor can you integrate with the local filesystem, or call native APIs. With a hidden Java applet, it was pretty easy to make a full-fledged application that just happened to have a web-based API. That's getting a lot harder. Chrome ex

Android TV devices act as Chromecast receivers, so you can do the same thing on Android TV, at least with media player apps. However, I don't think there's a built-in way of transitioning state for full-fledged Android apps. Sam

The io.js situation was more akin to Python 3 vs Python 2 than Python vs PyPy. It might not have looked like a major difference at first glance, but there were notable significant, which came with some breaking under-the-hood changes.

I have a 2600k at 4.5 GHz (probably can go faster, since I haven't put much effort into overclocking). For almost everything I do, it's fine, but some games in Dolphin still push the limits. It's really annoying when somethi

At least with SSDs, there's much less worry about your RAID 5/6 array self-destructing while it's failing over to a hot spare. With hard drives of that size, I'd only feel comfortable with full mirroring.

I use Session Manager [1] for this. It has a "restore tabs on demand" option. I usually end up restarting the browser every week or two, either due to Windows updates, Firefox updates, or getting enough active tabs that the brow

Ironically, Chrome on Android handles this better than Chrome on the desktop. I have 15 tabs open on desktop Chrome right now, and it's getting a bit cramped. My Note 4? 33.

I use Tree Style Tab for this, although I hate the actual tree functionality - it just happens to be the only reasonable vertical tab solution I've found. Unfortunately, it seems to get a little bit laggy with more than a couple hundr

I think Microsoft could be in a position to do this with Windows 10. It certainly seems to me like it would be the next logical step after the Surface Pro.

The lack of a "for 10 minutes"-type option is, IMO, the biggest failing of Privacy Guard. XPrivacy is better in that regard, but was harder to use overall when I last tried it. XPrivacy does have the benefit of making it easy to

Chrome is utterly unsuited to the use case of leaving hundreds of tabs open, which happens often to me, as I only bother updating/cleaning my bookmarks a couple of times a year. There's three main issues with Chrome: 1) Nothing I

You print off a list of backup codes and stick them in a safe. Then log in with the backup code, and set up a new Authenticator token. You could also add a U2F token and store that away.

Then why not allow users to defer entering a phone number until they try to add a service that actually requires it?

Yes, that's definitely unfortunate. I don't remember it being required with older versions of the Authy app. I really hate forced cloud service integration, especially in applications that deal with sensitive material.
