I recall news stories about legal pot businesses in Washington not being able to keep their money in banks because of federal regulations, so I'm curious how they're able to take credit card payments. Is it different for medical m

They claim that their 50 Whr battery can power a MacBook Pro for 6 hours, a MacBook Air for 12 hrs. By my math, that would mean that the MacBook Pro would only be consuming an average of around 8.3 watts an hour, the air only around 4.2 wat

The thing that always annoyed me about Aereo is how they restrict who can "rent an antenna". If they are to stick to their legal argument that they're just renting an antenna, then why can I not rent an antenna based in New Y

Who decides who gets to be a CA for SSL certs? Similar process. Somehow my browser doesn't recognize a CA that would allow any random person to pretend to be Facebook.

Yes... swap the two drives. The optical bay cannot properly put the HDD to sleep. I am running a similar setup, but with the HDD in the original bay, and the SSD in the optical bay and have no issues.

I'm successfully pushing local content to my Chromecast. The developer in question was using an undocumented API. If you use the documented APIs, things work just fine.

Sadly, it doesn't look like they support group messaging. That would be a killer feature.

I've been using my Chromecast to play local content since day one. Then again, I have a whitelisted application that I'm using and I'm not distributing it. There is nothing really stopping developers from developing such serv

I'd be curious to test something like this: http://jsfiddle.net/CLJYC/ "Do you have a gift card or promotional code?" Y/N, and then only show the field if yes is selected.

Because zip codes do not equate to cities 1 to 1. Many cities have multiple zip codes, and some zip codes span multiple cities. Zip codes are based on postal routes, cities are not.

OSX doesn't use IP geolocation to determine location... they use wifi triangulation. VPN connection-state shouldn't make a difference one way or another. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wi-Fi_positioning_system

You're correct in pointing out that the odds of #FF4A00 being selected randomly are the same as the odds of #EAF7C2 being selected randomly; just as the odds of the Powerball numbers 1 2 3 4 5 P6 being selected randomly are just the same as

You and I see a single site where you can go and find movies people have uploaded to YouTube. The MPAA sees a single site where they can go and make their DMCA requests to YouTube. I question how long this will be useful.

I like Android intents and all, but I think Facebook is misguided if their plan is to release a new version of Home every month. The intent preference is only remembered for the same version of the app... that means if they choose to updat

No way to fix it? Not that they should, but Facebook could just stop redirecting www.facebook.com/profile.php to www.facebook.com/<username> By making that change (and having no other way to hit a page that redirects to my user pag

That's my point... from the merchant standpoint there is no additional integration required... they just process it as a credit card. Facebook limits the spend based on the merchant identifier that gets sent to them from the POS. Basical

It looks like this is just a prepaid credit card with dedicated balances for each merchant. While I'm sure Facebook has buy-in from the merchants (as they are using their logo and other brand marks), in theory Facebook could offer gift car
