And as for "why are not selling this in every retail store?", the answer is the same - because if they were, no one would buy them. I found the situation curious, while everyone complains about it, only very few people are trying

Before we put all the blame on vendors, I submit to you, ladies and gentlemen, this: the public finds this tradeoff (privacy for entertainment) completely acceptable. With all the outrage, privacy-centric solutions are out there and relativ

I'm a little confused about the point the author repeatedly makes in this article, complaining about the #includes on top of the file. Genuinely curious, where does he propose to put the includes?

I don't think it's a question of who deserves what. They deserve a living wage. The kids deserve to get their presents on time. I deserve a pony. The question is how whether to see it as a smart tactical choice to get that they &q

The solution is to project strength and hit them where they don't expect. You are dealing with a thug, not a cost/benefit accountant, as Obama seemed to mistakenly believe. As long as they do things and we respond, nothing good wi

I suppose it’s my belief that he gave everything he got to FSB vs your belief that he’s telling the truth and he didn’t. I base my belief on the first hand knowledge of how Russia works, and the fact that it held all the cards and Snowden h

It’s a fact he went to Azerbaijan at the same time Putin did. It’s also a fact that he flew to the Paris right after. Putin spokesman said they did not meet. There were speculations that they did - references are on Wikipedia page.

He didn't have to escape to Russia with a bunch of laptops filled with classified documents, the majority of which he's never made public. If he cares so much about exposing the US government, he should stand up for his beliefs. Y

Ok, before everyone loses their minds over this, let me point out some interesting details: - Durov was an author of VKontakte, I suppose you can say it's Russian Facebook, then there were some events resulting in him leaving VK, and l

Yes, email has evolved from an open standard to a closed system dominated by only a few big corporations. I don't see how is this situation acceptable - such a fundamental functionality is out of reach to all but a few of us. Well, Gma

Hersh is clearly a douche. But what if the US did, indeed, destroy those pipelines? Great job, guys. Blow up the rest of them. The last I’ve heard, South Stream is still operational.
