You're seriously wondering whether or not someone is going to trust their secrets and the source of their income with a complete stranger, and further pondering whether or not you can trust an anonymous criminal?

Terrible article. Interviewing companies about their plans to move to Windows 8 less than a month after it's released? Of course the numbers are going to be low. I would be surprised if 1/3 of the people interviewed had ever even seen the

Actually the sign-up page is what is jarring me. Everything I click on sends me to a sign-up page. What if I just wanted to look at the auctions? Wouldn't it be preferable to only force people to have an account if they want to bid? How

While I appreciate Tesla as much as the next person, the statement that he's responsible for "most" of Edison's inventions is wholeheartedly not true. Edison is still seen as being largely responsible for things like the phonograph and kine

I'm not trying to come off as negative, but did you ever stop to wonder if you're making things more complicated than they actually are?

I'm considering signing a couple of my employees up, but I'm reading the description: you'll be expected to learn and use grep, ssh, apt-get, tail and man I also see that restarting services is in there.. however I don't see anything that

Online: Windows 8 is different! Everyone panic. (Anecdotal) Reality: Everyone that uses Windows 8 manages to get past the interface changes within the first day of use.

Scaling that up to laptop or desktop screen size is a completely different set of motions. Why do you assume the motions are different? Apple has already proven this with the Magic Trackpad for desktops.

Hundreds of billions of planets, and this is just our one small galaxy. Just given the sheer scale of the universe, I think we almost have to be foolish to think that we're the only life forms that exist in the whole thing.

I'm two months or more into my Windows 8 experience, and I love it. Articles like this are just spread FUD in a desperate grab for pageviews. Windows power users will likely have no need to ever touch a metro app. The only people that will

This comes from a book called The Richest Man in Babylon http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Richest_Man_in_Babylon_(boo... It's a very quick read, and you can probably find it online for free, as it's nearly 100 years old. Everything you ne

The feds didn't go after MegaUpload because it allowed people to share files that may or may not be copyrighted It's very presumptuous to assume you know the reason why the Feds raided MU. If the Feds had a case they should have presented

Along the same lines, I've always had the thought that the reason IPv6 adoption is taking so long is because encryption is actually built into the protocol. What happens to all those billion dollar wiretapping facilities all over the countr

Except for MAC filters aren't relevant to this situation at all. Private VLANs, however, are. A VLAN would keep these computers on their own network, and firewalls could be set up on the network side to prevent this stuff from happening. A

Did you try to contact Google's refund people and ask about this? I would be surprised if they turned you away. If they did turn you away, you might want to think about getting a credit card with purchase protection. All Amex cards, and s

No, but I can't for the life of me figure out what technical reason is preventing Apple from allowing this. If an iPhone 3GS can run iOS6, I am perplexed why the same can't be true for the iPad 1.

Personally the only reason I go to eBay is to get away from "big sellers". If it were a free-for-all everyone with a massive inventory would drown out all of the individuals (the core of the site).
