I can get on board with most of that. I think the simplest bit would be that if a corporate entity commits a crime that, had an individual committed it, would have led to jail time the major shareholders spend an amount of time in jail proportional to their interest in the company. That was...

Of course VW cheating is a bad deal, but to me it brings up a broader issue. Is diesel too dirty to burn in cars efficiently and cleanly? Are there just too many nasties in the fuel to start with?

Not the only ones: Mercedes-Benz, Honda, Mazda and Mitsubishi, Renault, Nissan, Hyundai, Fiat, Volvo, Jeep, Citroën also found in violation.

Here is a playlist of all of the Leonard Susskind @ Stanford lectures. I'll see you in a month.

JTR, not sure if you've been keeping up with the news for the last half-decade or so, but you are no doubt eligible for highly subsidized health insurance through the ACA. I went through Covered California for my wife and kid as it was cheaper (even without subsidies) than adding them to my plan...

Where the Ubiquiti solution really shines is in multi-AP installs. Once you have the software going adding another AP takes under a minute.

Not happy, but not planning an exit yet either. If this deal had happened before I bought in I wouldn't have done so. I'm still optimistic that it takes at least a year for them to damage the product or brand enough that I jump ship.

My clients have the money. At their level this isn't even a poor choice. I try to cultivate a knowledge and appreciation of what is possible and they choose to have it. Compared to a garage full of sports cars or a jet (or both) this is chump change.

I've had a half-dozen root canals in my life. There is a genetic thing where my saliva actually eats the enamel off my teeth. My grandmother had dentures in her 20s, my mom in her 30s, I'm planning on a mouthful of implants in my 40s. No point in sinking money into a set that only have to last a...

Looking forward to that. The highest capacity LG G4 is only 32GB, and even with a 128GB card in it that won't be enough if I can't move apps and secured data.

I haven't been in about the same time, though I am sure the number of cavities exceeds the number of teeth.

Board in question is a Gigabyte Z170X-Gaming G1

This system is going to have two Titan X and a 9x120mm radiator system, it is in no way about real-world performance.

Storage porn. I've found people online who were able to install Win10 on a RAID0 of these beasts.

I don't have a degree, but science in general (physics in particular) are a fairly deep hobby. It certainly helps. I'd love to be part of a club, but don't have enough time to make any kind of commitment.

There are very few places without empty roads, you just happen to live in one of them. There are countless options around here if you want to explore the limits a bit. Plus a world-class racetrack if you want to go really nuts.

I also use Google Authenticator for some stuff, but a physical key to unlock the smartphone seems like a great idea to me. Another thing I just found out about is Intel True Key. Looks interesting.

Parrot MKi9200 looks close enough that I've ordered one to try out. Planning on wiring it directly to the amp and not having a head unit at all.

I thought the same thing. Or a wall of 55" 1080P Televisions. If you go larger 4k and do the math just right, you could get a smooth radius of curved TVs across the front of the room. That would look incrediballs.

My new smartphone (LG G4) doesn't have a fingerprint reader on it (sad). If it did I wouldn't bother, but now you have me thinking it would be a nice thing to have. I'll have to look into whether the YubiKey Neo will allow me to unlock my phone and activate Lastpass via NFC. That could be really...

I think it is all relative to what the author of the pages you are viewing had in mind. The BBS days had all kinds of optimizations for low-bandwith connections, but I remember being on 28.8 long after 56k was a regular thing and suffering for it. Then when I had dual ISDN when everyone else was...

Exactly like this: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLaeETZPdShsN8XtwhDKS-iVJZ38lKFKI9

Looks great. Thanks for that.

At the moment standard displays are getting very competitive with projection systems even up to 75"+. Unless projection gets much better very soon I'll be switching to a regular TV for the next refresh.

Did you mean Pradeep or JTR?

Google is the gold-standard of search engines, Yahoo has been deteriorating lately and might be as bad as Bing at this point. Even worse is that they don't seem to have the bandwidth/computing power to serve all the searches coming in since they bribed the Firefox devs to move everyone to Yahoo...

I'll stick with ABP until it does me wrong. Good to know there are alternatives out there. Thanks for doing the legwork folks!

What is the average time for you between a new lens being delivered and it being used?

Eventually you won't have the time to change. Eventually you'll have brand-new computer hardware still sitting in boxes after weeks just because you haven't had time to get to it.

Might I recommend a CRT? They are more throw-in-proof.

On another note, Firefox really screwed their users by changing default search to Yahoo. Not only are the results obviously inferior, but my users are now actually timing out ~15% of the time.

If you use Chrome, the plug in is all you need. There is a plug in for Firefox as well (which is all I use). IIRC, the Chrome plugin has more functionality.

RFID blocking wallets are already a good idea.

I'm ordering a 100/100 fiber connection and they just gave me 128 addresses without even asking.

Test drove one in 2011 when I got my car. I don't fit in the hardtop (I'm 6'3") and I consider a car without a solid roof incomplete. I'll have to try the new one, but considering it is smaller and lighter I don't have many hopes.

No doubt overkill, but at that price why not?

Yup. No problem at all. And if you find yourself running more devices that can use PoE (cameras, APs, etc), you can get a switch that includes providing PoE power and simplify your wiring further.

The responses to that post make the same statements I'm about to. The default assumption in an IPv4 Firewall/NAT setup is to deny all incoming traffic. This is the assumption because with NAT enabled you would have to specify to which NATed computer the traffic would go to. Similarly, giving...

I don't know enough to speak intelligently about it yet, but I really like NAT and non-routable IP addresses. This is the simplest thing a firewall can do, and I'm not looking forward to being without it.

I thought they'd said as much. I remember reading somewhere that "Windows 10" will be the last windows release (like OSX). I was expecting them to go directly to a subscription model as well, but that hasn't happened (yet).

Lastpass made switching phones and reinstalling my main laptop much easier. I was also just informed that one of my vendors had a data breach, knowing that that password was unique and easily changed made that a much less stressful situation.

The recent Lenovo servers I've been picking up have their RAID card in them and it plays very well with SSDs in RAID-0, 10, and 50. I don't get all the performance the math would suggest, but it ain't bad.

I'm with Merc on this, you're quickly entering a particularly messy rabbit hole. There is little that can be easily fixed beyond what we've already discussed.

Indeed. Once you've verified that the fault isn't with any part you can fix, there is little point in figuring out what the problem is.

Try these: 1. Tell the OS to forget your AP and then add it again 2. Uninstall the WiFi adapter and re-install 3. Rebuild the TCP/IP stack

Totally stoked about Lastpass still, in fact I've helped a few other people integrate it into their lives and am investigating the enterprise version for work. Dashlane seems fine, all the features seem to be there. One of the things I like about Lastpass is how well they handled their security...

I run a company account of phones, about 300 total. Verizon has excellent online tools for managing huge numbers of phones that Google doesn't have yet.
