Another reason, if you live in a city like where I grew up (Port Arthur, Tx), you had better be ready to be viciously attacked if you are out on a bike (or even out walking).

I'm wondering if they have friends inside of Apple that can tell them the protocol... or even copy code.

I'll join in... https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/fgc-live-streams/f... Totally unrelated to hacking :) It's for finding twitch streams for Fighting games (Street Fighter, etc).

My guess is that it was very rare but because of agendas, it'll be played up and mentioned to seem as though it was more common than it actually was. Just me guessing... knowing nothing about the subject.

Plex is great. I'm on vacation with access to my full movie collection. Streams perfectly.

I wonder how much attribution can be given to the thought that many people keep their minds more active now with various forms of entertainment like games, smartphones, books, puzzles, etc.

This is an excellent article. Like Air France 447, seems very plausible that pilot error did play some role. This reinforces my respect for the pilot of US Airways Flight 1549, Captain Sullenberger.

It's more of a comment about the predictability of political articles on HN.

I have no idea who Mayor Rob Ford is, but I assume he must be to the right of center for this to be the top item on HN.

I'd say it could be troubling for dropbox. It's probably game over for https://aerofs.com though unless AeroFS drastically changes/pivots. For dropbox, they do have some advantages. Bittorrent brings up thoughts of piracy. Dropbox does

If I had to bet on this, I'd say Satoshi isn't Japanese.

Why didn't I think of this? Seems so obvious after the fact.

I really feel that BS is a different use case.

This seems superior as it provides more advanced configuration and no limits with the number of parties you can invite. It appears to be free. And no central server. Transfers were painfully slow with Aero, I assume this would be faster.

I'll admit it, you described me. Plus it's so awkward to take a large camera that I've just stopped using it altogether except for the rarest of occasions.

"Keep Calm and Carry On". This phrase from the British has peaked in recent times. http://www.google.com/trends/explore#q=Calm%20and%20Carry%20... A week hardly passes that I don't see it on a shirt, a coworkers wall, or in a meme.

Who you know and who you are friends with means a lot and can make your life much easier in many respects. That's one reason I see so many playing that social game at work. It really turns me off, even though I know it's important, I'd ra

>What interests me more is why does this stuff keep happening in Apple’s name? It's very similar to politics. Apple are the Republicans of tech in that every minor story is major news, all dirty laundry aired by journalists, bloggers, a

Maybe phones should provide a "charge only" setting that can be toggled on when using non-trusted devices to charge your phone?
