I'm guessing it's going to do all this stuff on the device, and not done in the cloud.

Nearly every sentence of this post is factually wrong. A wide variety of DRM free video exists on the internet, some of it is even paid material. Louis CK, Jim Gaffigan and Greg Pr…

EarPods are quite decent and the design is very ingenious. However, the response is pretty neutral. I'd imagine the Beats acquisition is probably at least in part to make better he…

D'oh. Somehow missed the fact that you were hardening the machine against attack.

why are you disabling the card bus, firewire and sd card ports?

I'm just happy he's willing to give credit where it's due. That to me, speaks volumes towards the dev's character.

I grew up in the Airforce and spent a lot of years all over. I now live in New York City. If my keyboard thinks, just because I'm in New York City, that I meant to say, "Stand on l…

I really REALLY hope that no one is ignorant to the fact that tricking people to touching their penis is wrong. I'm REALLY really REALLY hoping.

By the time Apple showed up to any particular gadget segment, that gadget segment had existed for years, and sometimes decades before. iPad? Tablets had been kicking around since t…

The exact nature of various FPS gaming engines from that era kind of gives me a massive headache. Still, the point stands that this isn't unprecedented. John Carmack's has, in the …

Not unprecedented though. Carmack did once advise Ken Silverman on using sectors with his 3D engine. Which later became the Build Engine.

I also meant to say that even if we do eventually make something cool, the crushing realities of working as a software developer still sucks. Granted, if you're a Googler or Amazon…

I'm struggling to find any sort of counter argument that isn't, "But we get to make something cool!" Which is wrong, because most of our time, we're coding up something that shits …

how the hell am i supposed to make money!? I just keep bleeding cash no matter what I spend my time on

you don't think it's unfair that a landlord can upend your life and make it complete hell just so they can get tenants who are willing to pay more? This isn't about moving, this is…

I don't want my system to crawl or my eyes to burn because someone decided that yellow on white or white on yellow or yellow on magenta was a good idea or that having a song from 2…

if ICQ was so wonderful to use then why did we flee to the next best thing to come along? My feeling was that ICQ sucked in a very horrible way. I was never around for the Friendst…

Z-80 ASM is arcane? Well, it is also has custom audio and graphics.

The problem is, you're asking people who've lived in a place for generations just to up and move because yuppies want easier access to bars and fancy coffee shops. Surely you can u…

Same's kind of true on iOS. Ultimately, the best solution seems to be on both platforms, ... VLC. Everything else seems to be based on ffmpeg anyway.

Reasonably regulated market where people are free to pursue economic opportunities but with oversight that protects the underclass and underprivileged?

What about for EFI? Does this guide hold up the same?
