As thekaleb mentioned the creator seems to reference this symbol a lot in his games. Here is more of a back story (after some google-fu of course as I'm not very familiar with the …

I wonder if they will block cell signals? I've noticed in certain Walmarts my signal won't work no matter where I am - more than likely the thick walls I would assume were blocking…

Regarding the DNA bank: I would like to know what information will they hold - just digital fingerprints of the DNA, or actual organic material. Depending on what is stored this co…

For the lazy: (this will hide the referral and not forward you to the image crying about HN traffic) https://anon.to/?https://www.jwz.org/xscreensaver/

I haven't really seen this discussed since it's release and I would like to get others inputs on using it now that they have "improved" privacy [1]. 1. Now they hide the data such …

The feature does exist however it doesn't work in every scenario. Essentially when your pager shows "X - Y of Z" (and not "X - Y of many") the keyword being many of course. Your ab…

Thank you for this information - seems to be so - just tried a VPN from Canada and it only shows the email that I entered. However I still would like to disable it on the off chanc…

(see below for update about Android 6.0+) Depends on the phone and if they use passive or active probing [1]. I also do not see a way to disable it globally yet as it's currently i…

Medical marijuana user here, next time if you feel comfortable recommend to the user they grab a can of Ozium before going to public venues. It completely takes the smell out and r…

This still has many flaws. 1. New guy gets hired. 2.You work for a large corporation and we'll you can't say you can trust everyone there. 3. Small company of 10 (company I work at…
