    I don't think it's a good idea to have that doorbell, or any doorbell that is surveilling at all times and you don't own the recordings. Who knows who is watching them.

    I was just using a 2012 X230 running Arch and it's plenty snappy on the command line or even running an electron based editor (or as good as such a thing can be)

    Can't stand Noah or his preening "adult in the room" affect, when you can find him tripping over his own feet on Twitter any day of the week.

    I think that's a little silly, You can get a google search to look for hyper specific stuff it just requires a little bit of massaging. It was not at all true that there was no mas…

    I don't know how to estimate nostalgia but I've absolutely noticed google search results getting worse in the past 6 - 18 months. You'll see that the entire page of results is base…

    If there's any justice in the world every person who participates in this sort of work will be shamed and ostracized in the future.

    What is this? No offense but this site looks like a concept mock-up. There's no actual information besides general ideas and stock photos, and there's no further links or reading, …

    Facebook's abuse of privacy is only part of the problem, the much more pressing issue is that it's become a publisher and news network de facto.

    Why wouldn't someone who wants Google and Amazon broken up also want Disney and Comcast broken up? That's a massive strawman.

    Which actual differences exist between the hardware security of a Pixel 2 and an iPhone 7?
