Glad to see that the superiority complex of the scene is still alive and well... Everyone needs an onramp to discovery. There are WAY worse things to be into than Green Day. But pl…

Within Google there are several tools, but the most common (and IMO best) is markdown. (Docs is a close second.) Pros: Get's checked in like code, gets reviewed, and leaves a nice …

I never said it was fair play, I disputed that it was a "bizarre tactic". There is a trademark angle to your example, so if DDG has a Trademark argument, they should challenge (alt…

I'm not sure that I agree that owning a domain is a bizarre tactic.

I disagree on the "more electron" front. Running old Chrome with known vulns packaged up into an app is not the direction I'm looking for ChromeOS to go. I'll take an app in a tab,…

Sad to see AirVPN excluded. While their website isn't the most elegant I've seen, it's not user hostile enough to abandon altogether, IMO. It also seems a bit odd to rate VPNs on t…

What attack vector does changing your password help with? Are you concerned they could have recovered the account password via the Oauth scope?

California native here. This is the first time I've ever heard anyone say this about LA. Most generalizations usually go the other way; this is new. To be clear, all the generaliza…

Google's OpenDNS servers are not down, they are recursive resolvers, and are not getting data from Dyn's authoritative resolvers. OpenDNS caches DNS data for longer than other recu…

This is sadly true, but I think we also need to reject that this is the new normal. We need to continue to push back firmly on secret government request without oversight.

This would be a brilliant long game phishing attack. You have regular emails with links arriving that people think they have to click or bad things will happen. Not saying at all t…

Minor nit: shocked, not electrocuted, since you're thankfully still with us. :) Electrocution is death by electric shock (that's the '-cution' part, like execution).
