> Not a noise standard, which would make sense. A speed limit. Is enforcing a perceived noise, or even a measured decibel limit on the ground even realistic? It would be difficult …

CloudFlare's Universal SSL certificates used to be shared between multiple unrelated accounts by SAN stuffing, so back then they definitely wouldn't have given out the private key.…

A push button normally closed momentary switch would be pretty slick too. Also it would probably be best to put it on the ground wire. Car radios will have at least two power wires…

I took up bouldering around 2 years ago, despite my fear of heights. I've managed it by sticking exclusively to gyms, and staying well within my limits. What also helps is the gym …

They mention Cellebrite because they share specific stats on how much data they can copy off a device in a given time. It's essentially used as a source for the end of the paragrap…

Is the electric mini cheaper than the standard 3 door hatch? The only price points I'm seeing are £16195 for petrol [1] and £24400 after UK incentives for the BEV [2]. [1]: https:/…

I was going to mention that the one that has broken earth's orbit is the wrong vehicle and is not a first generation Tesla Roadster, but then I realised the repair woes are likely …

I would love to know what they classify as a daily active user. My expectation would be someone who sends or receives a message, but I would never have expected the numbers to be s…

Wood gas is mainly hydrogen and carbon monoxide. Even a small leak into the passenger compartment could be deadly, especially if it was filtered well enough to be odourless and the…

The argument is that if you are buying a licence, the retailer is obligated to tell you you're buying a licence. Current advertising, shopping, and checkout flows instead communica…

Yes, actually. Because that event was referenced in the original article, which made it the last book I had thought about.

It doesn't make sense to me that eBook retailers can claim they're selling licences to view books, instead of the books themselves. If I were to look for 1984 for a kindle, I'd: 1.…

Deviant Ollam does another talk with elevator consultant Howard Payne just about elevator security which is fantastic. It's very similar to this one, but goes deeper into the singl…

It's quite incompetent and negligent to put network connectors on servers that cause spectacular failures when exposed to a network. This isn't a fair assessment of the situation. …

I'm not going to comment on moral or legal responsibilities of bookies and gambling companies, because I am uneducated on both subjects, but I found your use of the term "collect m…

My mind jumped to Canada when I read the above comment, but really there are a number of countries that fit the mould. Most western countries have a special levy on blank media, in…
