Technical issue, but... is the "Recommend" button doing anything? (or supposed to be doing?) I push it and nothing happens.

Corporations cotroll the DNS mafia. Distributed decentralized domain name service is the future!

Not anymore. They corrected the DNS records already, just wait for it to propagate.

LEGO is just now (in process of) suing Czech Pirate Party on trademark grounds. We (as in pirate party) made a pretty mediocre (IMO) ad before elections, which used CGI models that bore some resemblance to Lego figures. They didn't like tha

About bitcoin: It depends. Yes, it is not fully anonymous, but you can make it reasonably anonymous quite easily (infinitely more than any credit card). Just trade it for cash with someone you know in the first place, then send it to MtGox

They say that Hushmail keeps your mail in plaintext. But does it? From what I heard, they encrypt your mail even on their servers. However what kills the service for me is the need to pay if you don't use it reguralry - and there is no way

What's better - if you click on it, you see just that. A blogger logo. That's it. That's where the link leads. To blogger logo.

Funny thing is that the "new and better" Google Groups don't work for me on any Android browser on my tablet, at all. Why make a website and not test it on your own ecosystem? Sometimes I don't get Google.

funny thing is - trailers are today revealing much less than in the past. If you have seen the movie True Grit - either the old or the new one - compare the trailer to the 1969 version, which essentially gives out all the plotpoints - http

Well, they already make trailers and put them to every videosharing site possible. If you add all footage from the trailers, it can be about 10 minutes, maybe more.

I am too lazy ... ummm busy to read the paper right now, but well, is it really causation, or some very, very weak correlation?

if I get it right, BitTorrent live is a centralized server with a proprietary (?) client? I don't think that's the lesson to take from BitTorrent.

I still don't understand - Israel and its citizens claim that Gaza is the aggressor. While the civilian casualties are much higher on Palestinian side. And while it's Israel who blocks shipping goods and humanitarian aid to Gaza.

How effective these things actually are in US? Why am I asking... I am in from Czech Republic, where I can't imagine anyone knocking door over door and asking people to vote. Actually, this behavior is so connected here to Jehova's Witnesse

Can I ask a pretty newbie question - how is BGP connected to IP, TCP and DNS protocols? Is it sitting "below" them, "on top" of them, or is it somewhere else?

I think there was a story like that on frontpage of hnews few days ago. I just think that once a service is as big as google/facebook, these things just happens without malicious intent. Especially if you have a culture of "hack first, worr

It's funny that those things reappear pretty frequently. Google is sinking pages on purpose so they buy ads. Facebook is sinking posts so they buy promoted posts. Yelp is sinking down businesses so they buy ads. It's possible that those are

Oh, OK. I can see the mails too, I just didn't think it's such a security risk.

It's funny that rt.com, who is always first to point out things like this in the west, is suddenly moot on the issue.

This is nothing, compared to the "peer review" of the humanities lectures. I know that there is no easy answer for doing MOOC (massive open online course) in humanities, but, according to the web, Coursera's solution is not working very wel
