That could be but if purism open sourced their designs and their drivers etc.(like they have) then it would be harder to mask that fact. Or maybe you are a NSA agent trying to send false flags! :p

Unless purism can prove they are NSA proof, I would not buy their computers. They expect a very large premium for the fact that their computers are open sourced. Don't get me wrong. I believe what Purism is doing is great and with the

Why don't more people just live in RVs/vans? Taking out a mortgage is a huge risk over 30 years - what happens if you lose your job and cannot find another one at the same pay? Or you get sick and cannot work? I guess you could se

I have a very close friend that works for the clandestine service, Mussolini. He tells me that they have backdoors into all cellphones that exist. I didn't believe him at first but looking at the recent vault 7 leaks[0], now I am not d

Please keep in mind when using Qube OS is that it does NOT protect you if your hardware is compromised. The NSA and other clandestine agencies have an easy backdoor to your computer even when running this.

Android Studio, and in turn, Jetbrain's IDE are an absolute godsend for productivity. Quick actions, macros, shortcut egornomics, etc. are top notch and make me a happy developer. I would even dare to say, it's a better IDE than V

Unions are there to protect worker rights and to help them gain a livable wage. Even in my last job people were talking about creating a programmer's union to prevent all the unpaid overtime we do. This type of progress is only going t

They are not parasites. And I am now questioning where's your humanity. Would you be saying the same thing if your mom or dad was in the said union? I don't expect you to see eye to eye but I want to say progress at the expense of

They're both pretty much exams. The 'MCSE' or any other certification from Microsoft would be worth more and probably be cheaper than udacity. If your goal to have something to show to a potential employer, MCSE will hold alo

It's a bit unbelievable they were able to double the range of the already highly efficient model S... Maybe a significant reduction of weight + increase in battery? Whatever it is, it's amazing that they were able to pull it off.
