You didn't read my comment did you? The artists wouldn't have any power to play with and wouldn't have even have had this venue to practice their art if it wasn't for the kindness of the building owner. The artists are s

I feel like these artists just screwed over their own community. Sure they got some money, but at what cost? The owner originally allowed these artists an opportunity and a venue to express themselves at no cost, and when he had decided it

Is there any evidence these are low quality though? I bought a Lumia 720 which I used for 3 years and still works perfectly another 3 or 4 years later, although the Windows OS was lacking in many ways, the phone itself is engineered extreme

It doesn't make the situation worse, you're the only person suggesting that. It offers some extra security, but very little. It's the digital equivalent of locking your back door but not bothering with the front door.

Since the EU has stated they won't be doing any trade deals with anyone not in the Paris climate agreement, it looks that this won't be a problem with the current US administration. http://www.independent.co.uk/new

Assuming an attacker can't know your information is not a good idea. Your login information can be gained via keyloggers, network sniffing, phishing scams, malware, malicious employees, and all sorts of other methods.. This is why two

If your doctor can't diagnose you without you asking for medicine you saw on TV, either your doctor is an idiot, or you suffer from a huge communication problem. Your self-diagnosis isn't the failure of doctors, it's the fail

When I went from S7 to S8, I really thought Samsung did an amazing job learning from their mistakes and creating an excellent phone. Everything except the Bixby button. A feature I will never use and is difficult for users to work around

What about the Sony hack required extreme sophistication? Placing tailored screens on all user desktops, the way the data was found and exfiltrated.. it all might not have taken massive skill, but there was a lot of time, effort, and plan

This article to me is just more evidence that North Korea was not behind the Sony hack and possibly other high-profile attacks attributed to them. I mean on the Sony end you have something requiring extreme sophistication and technical know

For those that are interested, Netflix's Dirty Money (S01E01) covers this topic from the point of view of the auto manufacturers emission scandal that happened recently. It really puts a whole new spin on this very important conversati

All of the tracking done by strava and fitbit is all just built into your telephone, same as myfitnesspal and most of the other ones. Your options are not carrying a standard phone, or just not deliberately tracking yourself. These are not
