Well the reason for the leak was shit private contractor because they sold the service requested at the lowest price. If they'd gone with some other more expensive contractor there would be a lot of explanation to why they wanted to waste taxpayer money, there's a law in place for how contract...

Or you know you could "just" look at the open source code on github that they claim they will publish... It does sound like an interesting tool I wonder if there's limits to it or non feasible, there's some large .exe's out there...

I got tired of Googles obsession with blinding me with white and changes that I didn't enjoy like this... So I went with Vivaldi (Firefox is for "other things") and much nicer with choices but it does seem to have WAY worse performance in loading and showing web pages and slower to add new tabs...

Shocking... I got in to the alpha and as expected bunch of connection issues but what made me stop trying: it was boring and annoyingly couldn't get the controls to feel "right" not even starting on menu/selecting things. But in total so NOT worth getting banned for.

This is a hilarious thread between the Nvidia (<- actual spelling of the company) jokes, the hate for influencers and gatekeeping... Yes Nvidia pays money to get brand recognition, yes Nvidia had some issues with their launch but that's nothing new, yes there are people who get paid to show...

No they are like a card game based on DOTA.... "Artifact" And VR titles and a "singel player game"... I do wonder if they have "IT" to make good games still though, a lot of big talent has quit from the time of "big games" and there's rumors about their company culture that doesn't sound great...

Not entirely sure but I've seen some projects of unlocking phones using Yubikey, they have a bluetooth and NFC version so you can use it the same/ish way as the USB version for 2FA on phones and apps...

"If you didn't watch it in theater in '77 then you're no true fan and have no say in it" "I didn't like this so it's bad" "SJW!!!!!!!!!!!!" The so called "Star Wars hardcore fanbase here is a lovely bunch.... I Agree the Last Jedi was heavily flawed but I've seen worse, Solo did a lot wrong it...

These new 4k 144HZ monitors even have fans... Yes you will hear your monitor... saw a video previously posted on [H] the Acer was bad, the Asus (not posted here, just a reviewer post on a forum) has a fan but supposedly better and less noisy one. And I'm not surprised about sub sampling there...

For those wondering Paul from Pauls Hardware got a closer look at the cooling setup The pipes goes to a AC cooler so sub ambient cooling at least...

+10 years on steam, ~200games (no idea of hours played) a bit above $1700 spent... Not to bad but I wonder if it includes game codes (like humble bundle, etc) as "Value"..

It's fine to dislike someone even hate but go on a twitter hate spree like that after someones death is just distasteful. And I have a feeling it might hurt his carer, there's a lot of gamedevs and most aren't vocal about their buthurts... And no TB was not perfect or a saint but his family and...

We have lost a legend in gaming, it hit me hard I loved his unique style and way And pardon my language but: Fuck cancer. We have lost to many to it.

Did you know that due to the large amount of clothing/shoes charities have given to some poor countries it crashed the local clothes/shoe business and the countrys economy has been worse of due to the charity... Giving money and stuff to the right place is harder than it sounds (just check what...

No idea but it sure is going to get tested.... In the area the temp can go under -20C and above 25C a regular year with heavy snow that gets plowed (not very carefully there's always a lamppost or two that gets a bit crooked after the winter) and they use small gravel (not sand) and rare...

This sound like mostly audiojunk... I listen to mostly digital/streaming but tend to buy vinyl from artists I really like but couldn't afford (or want to) get stuff where something like 24/96 or this stuff would make big enough difference... Have heard to many song s ruined by bad mastering and...

There's a costly way they can do it to, making the sensor HUGE... not cost and such viable probably but it's possible from what I understand of it. And yes please faceunlock isn't to interesting to me but under screen fingerprint sensor is even though I would like to know how secure the...

What's easier name 10 Oscar movies or 20 Movies you liked?.... Does it matter in other words? "TV-movies" or streaming or cinema I don't see the difference more than average screen size they been shown on first months... If I got something I wanted from watching a motion picture it probably...

I'm not American so I could have misunderstood the last sentence but that sounds insane... Pointing a gun at someone isn't a crime? Around here pointing a gun at someone counts as death threat and is quite a big offence. Or is it something like just "local offense"? If someone points a gun at...

On my tax forms I get taxed a tad under 30% (income tax) add to that required pension of about 7% and the almost flat 25% tax on everything you buy, if you add everything together then yea you get taxed 40-60% (depending on income) I would show you my tax forms but it would take to long to...

Whilst 1y warranty is standard I for one would enjoy if tech companies would believe in their products more and give like 3y warranty because they know they won't fail because their awesome QCY/etc.... But that would mean consumers paying more and way to many will not for a chance it will last...

Wrong? It seems to be fixing itself... so that's good i guess? Just pray you don't get to close to stupid, it's not contagious but it can hurt... And stupid that tries and only partly fails might even learn something to become less stupid!

Well it had a few things going for it, fun cool idea that hasn't been overused and netflix ads/placement... I enjoyed it, however it was far from perfect it had some really dumb things going on and lost a bit here and there but still the idea kept it at "solid watch" for me... And don't listen...

The 4K looks great on my 4k 15" screen too, but it would still look great at 1080p as long as it's a good screen and color reproduction. Most depends on distance from screen like Nvidias coming BFGD at 65" if you sit less than 2m from the screen it would look bad at 1080p...

An interesting notion I find in this thread is that what commenters dislike the most is the hobo/smelly/non-clean people more than anything else... Maybe do something about their situation to keep them from being smelly/non-clean and making the public transit bad?... But then there's also the...

Nope, cellphone broadcasts is the way to go! Works quite good and send out emergency messages to everyone with a mobile phone connected to selected towers... And since almost everyone has a mobile... But turning of FM is dumb, try to build a FM radio it's relatively easy, now try to build a DAB...

I would suggest screen facing down or maybe hanging in cradles could probably fit in something like 4 Imacs in a 8U format... But why no 10G network? Would be quite useful of you don't want storage in reach of a TB cable... But I guess there's TB->10Gb dongles!

That's what I got from it too.. First bunch of edge cases with a "rich kid" and in most cases kids would just use their phone, plus nitpicking her helmet isn't strapped in properly and has a high risk of falling off... Then end the whole thing with showing how ignorant their "average user"...

I wonder who did all the business decisions when they started up, first they didn't expect the taxes in Europe (they draw taxes additional for creators in EU and so on) now they want to swap around the transaction fees? Did they not count on that? Someone has to pay for the transaction... Or is...

IME is stuff that is a part of AMT a thing that can be useful for companies for deploying software/updates etc remotely (even when the pc is not logged in or even ON!) is disabled, for regular users nothing to my (limited) knowledge... HOWEVER Intel claims, without showing, that IME is needed...

Not surprised Google is an ad company if everyone start hating ads even more they might start looking in to blocking all ads including googles... And also look in to other operating systems.

And some studios think the difference is just in cost of the game... Oh hi there EA et al. Prime example ME Andromeda not a AAA title since it was developed by Biowares un-experienced C-team....

I'm guessing that it''s less likely they would go after US based for the more undercover stuff to not get blamed for stuff locally... But yea today's modern OS you tend to need less AV for regular people with minor (un)common sense..

Well vinyl has at least some ok reasons to exist when it comes to music quality, not great mind you but still, and album art and such can be cool in the format. Tape on the other hand... I found an old tape deck, a while ago, and connected it up to record to tape when I then played it back it...

I'm having a bunch of "fun" issues with my XPS15 witch does include weird random heavy stutter in some games (but with regular framrates), but my favorite si far is that my Samsung 950Pro sometimes goes to 100% usage during web browsing making the system unusable and a powerbutton off is the...
