I wanted to be able to get at Apple's content distribution network directly instead of guessing when stuff would be made available to me, and found it convenient to have a physical…

It detected the abuse perfectly, that was the point it was trying to make. They're not using it because they don't want to

I realize this isn’t something people want to think about, but that’s precisely why these people are doing what they do unchecked. The most surprising thing about this is that the …

Another example of a corner being cut is that it was not tested on pregnant women

it does work though, because the sandwhichers will just take the delta between the accepted amount out, and the actual expected amount out, front run that, then back run the bulk o…

yes, I reluctantly do indeed

I'm curious about exploring this myself, would you mind explaining in more detail what is lacking after forking the main net with ganache? Is it that you need a high powered server…

I'm far from an expert on this, you probably know better than I do, but wouldn't forking the blockchain at the block height you're interested in with Ganache and execute it there b…

I've had the opposite experience too. I have an Nvidia linux card and Wayland on Fedora has always worked very well for me. In comparison Xorg on Ubuntu was a nightmare on the same…

I didn't until you linked to it, but having read it it still does appear that comparing single thread to single thread is not very accurate. Neither would core to core considering …

It turns out that the benchmarks for M1 vs latest generation Intel & AMD CPU's are indeed overblown, and it is an incremental improvement more than a great leap forward. The source…

if only they'd do this for apps accessing the microphone, or do the same thing as they do with the camera making the application visibly request access

You wouldn't know of any reason to believe that the NSA had access to google traffic back when they did if Snowden didn't allow you to know. Why choose to assume they don't rather …

they want to push iOS. They are begrudgingly updating their Mac line, with horrible specs such as 5400 RPM drives, and are avoiding holding an event for the announcements. This way…

I'll listen to music everyday for a week then not at all again for the next 8 months. I would happily pay for it on demand, but monthly it'd end up costing me something like $10 pe…
