This has been my consistent experience with McAfee in particular. I worked for 4 years in low level tech support, fixing computers for people that were sold in retail. We were required to recommend Anti-Virus software to our customers, and

Indeed. For the built in installation process that Microsoft wishes everyone would use in Windows 10, it could be this simple: - Open the Store - Search for "Name of App" - Click Install Bonus, this works for GUI software managers

Hrm! IANAL, I was entirely unaware this was even a thing, and now I'm deep down the Wikipedia rabbit hole. The more you know! Looks like the legality of it varies by state / region / country. Maybe it's not illegal where

Wait, why would they? The Windows license is bundled with the cost of the computer. You bought the license, whether you plan to use it or not. They are under no obligation to sell the license separately or offer you partial refunds, that&#x

So if I'm understanding this correctly, Lenovo isn't actively blocking Linux, they're just using a newer RAID mode in their storage controller that there are no existing Linux drivers for? This doesn't seem like that big

Your math doesn't work out there though. If we had 30 day months, we would end up with 360 days spread among 12 months, and an extra 5 days leftover. 28 day months make far more sense, would align nicely with your proposed single New Y

The primary issue with wildcard certificates is that it encourages certificate reuse between server environments. Even the act of transferring keys around carries a certain degree of risk. With a wildcard certificate though, say you have a

I think that one of the baseline requirements for an internet connected device to be considered fully secure is automatic patching by the manufacturer, with a signature verification system for the patches. If a vulnerability is found, this

Couldn't you just reverse the order then, and create an xz.tar? Maybe I don't understand the benefit of taring the data first.

I'm really surprised this hasn't caused more of a Net Neutrality uproar, since it's essentially the worst case scenario. If you don't pay T-Mobile to be one of their approved partners, your service is punished by costing

This worked for me, but only when I googled the exact article name. I had to open up the article (in "pay or else" mode), copy the title from there, paste that into Google, and then click on the same search result that had faile

I can't read this article without paying for a subscription. Forgive my ignorance of procedure with something like this; should the title perhaps include an indication that the article is not free? I didn't see any guidelines conc

I really recommend a raytracer, especially to anyone interested in graphics. It's straightforward, powerful, infinitely expandable with optional features, and opens up a ton of discussion about performance, code complexity, and general

Bootstrap is a lovely little thing. I use it for all new projects, as it kindly stops me from being nerd-sniped by CSS features and cross-browser comparability quirks. I usually end up needing to supplement it or replace it eventually, but

I'm trying to figure out why this site exists, what their business model is, and what they're hoping to accomplish. There's no pricing data available anywhere that I can tell, but it's obviously a company. I'll comb

I was taught in the US, and Solfege was used prominently in my voice classes, but rarely in my theory and piano classes. I think it's a system that works well when you don't have to think about the actual note name that you'r

On the science side of things, Vi Hart put together just an excellent video that goes over harmonics, the overtone series, and why 440 Hz and 880 Hz sound so "indescribably similar" to this blog author. https://www.yo

I can sight read for winds and voice, but not for Piano, despite being able to play Piano relatively well. Thus, this explanation will probably apply mostly to single-voice musicians. 1. Find Do. This is the first note of the Major scale in

Oh good. I expected to see a chart on the popularity of charts. I was not disappointed. I've got to imagine that printing the early charts on machines largely designed to print text would have been such a chore. But I don't know

I like how even the author doesn't try to call it a great game. It is just what it is, and nothing more; a lovely anti-RPG with some unusual humor, and very hit or miss gameplay. I personally really enjoyed it, but a lot of the critici

You're quite correct, the 750N was from memory. The actual model is an RT-N65R. That firmware looks lovely! I will give that a whirl when I have time to dink around with it, possibly this weekend. Thanks for that!

That sounds like a good idea on paper, but I think rotating or animating content (especially advertising banners) would heavily complicate that strategy.

On the subject of e-ink smart watches, I love my Pebble Time for exactly this reason. One of the backlight settings is Off, and the display is gorgeous. I forget it's even e-ink, because I'm so used to thinking of Kindles when I

This is part of why I'm so annoyed by the push for metrics at my service oriented company. Fortunately our company culture is such that my managers understand (and encourage) the need for frequent breaks and lightheartedness. If I had

That requirement is a bit outdated. At native (not higher than a real gamecube) resolution, I find that the vast majority of games play just fine on Intel HD 4000 integrated graphics, and I imagine newer chipsets perform even better. When D

I think the idea that another man might find them attractive is a source of discomfort. When I came out to my straight friends, almost all of them asked me if at any point I found them attractive, and were visibly relieved when I informed t

I discovered this the first time I had to rent a car from my dealer. There were about 12 other phones connected in, and my phone would have ended up with all of their contacts if I hadn't thought to disable contact sharing. (Fortunatel
