I wish there was a [podcast] mark or something like that, like there's a [video]--I hate consuming information in audio form, this would help me avoid a click.

If I ever had "premature ventricular contractions", whatever they are, I would never touch a coffee ever again. How can you do that? "rarely fatal" is not good enough for me :/

A small question. For a CloudFlare-protected website, I see this in crt.sh: >X509v3 Subject Alternative Name: >DNS Name:sniXXXXXXX.cloudflaressl.com (X are numbers) >DNS Name:(lots of domains, including the one I was researching) &

Hence the "incendiary but correct". Just the "admits recording" is incendiary enough. Or you think the title wasn't written with the purpose of being clicked upon?

Incendiary title, even if correct. There is no proof whatsoever the recordings were uploaded anywhere.

People responsible for data protection in Equifax know perfectly well how the data is stored[]. The CEO, evidently, does not. No news here, just a headline to provoke outrage. [] Yes, "no protection" is also a way of storing data

Using Messenger you can start a secret conversation with someone which is encrypted end-to-end. Those conversations only exist in the current device. But regular conversations are not encrypted in any way.

This has nothing to do with price floors. In your first message, you're assuming that workers have a choice regarding where to work. That is simply wrong. So wrong that I understood your comment was a joke.

Mere mortals trying to understand the inner workings of intelligence agencies make me cringe. There are no good boys and bad boys here.

Drug users usually turn violent and can be a hazard to themselves or others. Somebody trained to deal with such situations is required. This is, a cop.

That's the point. She's not just a woman, she's a woman with fake tits and no problems to show her physique--I think the possibility of her being a persona is over the roof, the same I would think of a super hot guy who posts

I clicked on the Iridium website and I only see one line of text in uppercase. It has nothing to do with Python's or Ruby's. The Iridium website gives me the impression I'm downloading something akin to Comodo's browser.

That's something I don't understand either. The government here has completely forbidden tobacco ads. Why not do the same with McDonalds and all that stuff? Will we have to wait a few decades more for the gov to catch up?

The Iridium website and logo look so professional and "enterprisey" that it looks like there's lots of money behind of it and they're going to screw you. A barebones or even text-only website would do them a favour.

That's not really the way it is. It is possible for something like this (these two being related) to not appear on wikipedia, and it is also possible the commenter is not able to come up with something interesting on google (maybe he s

Is there no way to flash the ME without expensive tools (i.e. software-side)? If Intel goes bankrupt they might just release the keys needed to disable/update the ME.

I don't understand the downvotes, as usual. I wish it was mandatory to write a reason every time you donwvote someone. They don't seem to be related.

You're free to look for those videos using the search feature of YouTube. I did and they are real. Some of them feature thumbnails or content that are clearly disturbing or include sexual themes. You would also believe the BBC which is

Hello, if you are being ironic can you please tell me why it was. I saw that article and I've seen lots of really bad examples of sexual propaganda directed at kids. Screenshots that circulated around the conservative sphere of Twitter
