That hasn't been true in many many years. Multicore processors literally run several things at the same time. Even a single core can literally run several instructions at the same time thanks to instruction level parallelism, in additi

My best advice: try it and see. Speaking for myself: I switched from Kodi to Plex after finding that Plex requires considerably less effort to achieve greater functionality, and the differences are things that I actually like. Your mileage

Ha, neat. I just got Plex DVR running a couple days ago. I have both an OTA tuner and a CableCARD tuner. I don't really watch TV, but Comcast did the thing where it's cheaper to buy TV than to not, and I figured I'd rather ha

This is a civil case, so Waymo's burden isn't "reasonable doubt", it's "preponderance of the evidence". In other words: is it more likely than not that Otto stole their tech from Waymo? This is a much easi

You don't need to break SHA256 to de-anonymize these values. `awless` collects account number hashes. AWS account numbers are 12 decimal digits long, meaning there's a total of 10^12 unique values. Values are anonymized before sub

The delta-V requirements for landing on an outer solar system body are… intense. New Horizons flew past Pluto at 14 km/s; in order to land, that relative speed would need to become zero. This concept likely requires new propulsion tech
