What I find amazing is that it's that large despite only being two bits of color depth, and it's extremely short and low framerate. Where the hell did all that filesize come from?

Caller ID spoofing can be done with an Android app. It's supremely trivial.

I think this was posted not because it's news to anyone, but because up until yesterday, Zuck was denying that it was happening. https://techcrunch.com/2018/04/11/facebook-shadow-profiles-h...

I always figured it was an issue with turning an inherently interactive form of media into a form that's taken passively. That seems like a rather difficult transition to make, hence movies about video games in general doing better t

I'd say that if your microservices aren't sharing that type of code, you've probably made a software design mistake. Perhaps beside the point, but that's a bit of a contrived example. I mean, people doing things wrong is

When did Electron even enter the conversation from Mozilla's side? It seems like people are inserting that detail entirely on their own.

Kind of strange that Google's first result for "sshuttle" is a dead project (literally says "Wrong project!" in the title) that links you to the real one.

Eh, that seems a little too loaded, all things considered. But definitely accurate in this case.

Same here. Devs can't even mount thumbdrives. Which is fine for us, we don't need them, but it prevents some funny business should one of our laptops get stolen.

I would probably use a hybrid of the two. Use the tag system for things I've tagged, and fall back to a regular filesystem for untagged files. That's basically how I have Steam setup. Most of my games are tagged, usually with mult

All of the debit cards I've gotten from traditional B&M banks have let me activate them at an ATM. Only my current bank, which does not have physical locations, doesn't give me that option. I assume it's because they let

Heh, well, sucks to be that guy, then. Because uBlock blocks that domain as it stands right now.

I went there recently for the first time in a while and was denied entry because I was using a VPN. Oh well.

So, bear with me on this, because I'm certain a lot of us have tech-illiterate parents and will understand what I'm getting at here. I'm not sure Fark is the best example, given that their demographic seems to be middle-aged

Even this year's April Fool's event was called Circle of Trust and leans heavily on having groups of friends. Which, of course, sounds of so familiar.

You're judging all cryptocurrencies against Bitcoin, which is already inaccurate. They don't all work the same way or consume mass amounts of power like Bitcoin does.

Kind of amazing that the Rust blog, something relatively new, is the top domain of all time.

The author immediately qualifies those numbers, which addresses your question. > Now, 6h left is a high estimate, obviously; work and private can (and do) expand on a daily, fluctuating basis, as they do for all of us.

I was forced to take that class my first time through college. Somewhat predictably, I was one of only two or three students under 40 in that class. Also somewhat predictably, none of the under-40 students had any trouble or needed any help
