My dad gave me a laptop with games and basic tools on it when I was 2 years old, and i figured that out pretty quickly. When I was 6, I was allowed to use the internet but there were limitations for time and keyloggers. My parents gave up w

Adb yo, you can remove packages without root. Even then, I do wonder what fragments are left behind. I fear Facebook/Google/et. al are too intertwined with the likes of Samsung and LG. Even when I remove all related packages, Face

What do you mean? Should refinement equal surface complexity?

It's because our politicians are hypocrites who use morality as prestige, all the while engaging in the very behavior they decry. I guess there's also less of a paper-trail when prostitution is illegal, and girls are less willing

You think it's irreconcilable for an individual to be okay with farming data, but not with indirectly killing people? Everybody has a slightly different moral compass. Every "good" person does "bad" things. I highly

I can only view like 4 lists of 13 articles each right now. The website directs you to download an app, which seems to be nothing more than a shortcut to a webpage. When i open the app, there is a banner at the bottom that says, "Get i

Wouldn't modifying the sample slightly, like lowering pitch by a few cents or stretching parts, also make it seem original? Audio is definitely too easy to spoof for it to be a security method IMO.

Are they the only provider in your area? Every year when my contract is about to expire they tell me my rates will be increasing from $60 to $90/mo., I call in and say I want to cancel and go to CenturyLink unless there is a comparable

In addition to competition, there were also safety issues with proprietary chargers. I personally experienced this, when I had an emergency and my LG Lotus was dead. I tried using a borrowed microUSB charger at the hospital, only to be pres

I don't know any good reason for them not to make ast2 and the battery health check available directly, other than to promote sales and additional door swings at their retail locations. I've always hated how opaque iOS is; Android

...and yet they comply with ~80% of government requests for user data? At the end of the day, they still have a way to break their own encryption; they just don't want to set a legal precedent or create tools to allow a third-party to

I read Wheeler's statement as sarcasm. He said the decision was "tragic" right before that line. It seems like he is implying that nobody likes cable companies, and now they're going to hate the similarities in interne

I am not sure I follow your line of reasoning. It is obvious that Kaspersky does not advertise itself in such a way, and the average consumer probably has no idea the company is even based out of Russia. Who cares if Putin personally calls

...or, just sign out of Snapchat before turning airplane mode off. At least that's how it used to work.

I fix phones for a living and frequently assist customers with calling manufacturers for warranty issues. LG and HTC are the worst, with the most frequent denial of customer assistance. Samsung and Apple have their faults, but you can typi

If how the individual came into possession of the property is a mystery, how is it clear the property was illegally obtained? I would be hard-pressed to prove that many of my assets truly belong to me. Edit: all of this is off-topic, as the

Then how does God exist? To me, the argument that a creator makes more sense than naturally occurring existence simply displaces the issue. God is then the unexplained, naturally occurring existence.

Yeah, but at the same time... If they want to reap the tax benefits of basing themselves out of a country, I would argue that they should be subject to that country's rule. Really, calling themselves an "Irish" company seems

Or, "That sounds like a fun challenge! Can I ask you a couple questions to better understand how this company is structured before answering?" Just saying you don't have enough information to formulate a plausible response d

'Arms dealer': one who sells arms. The point he is making is that, regardless of what is considered legitimate, both this individual and the U.S. government are, by definition, arms dealers. Or at least that the U.S. is an arms d

All of your audio is recorded (google.com/dashboard) then the audio files are thrown into a lottery. Individual people transcribe what they hear for the computer to build associations. Or, at least, that's my best guess with zero

Thanks for saying this! I work with phones and it's sad to hear people talk about the ever-widening gap technology places between them and their children. Too many people from younger generations make fun of their parents for being te

I agree with you emotionally, but question your argument legally. What, 'is,' and what, 'should be', are rarely the same thing. If government wants something forbidden, it creeps towards it. Expectations are meaningles

This is how it sounds to me. I think it is naive to assume Mr. Gates' character is so one-dimensional. He is a critical thinker; I'm sure he realizes the dichotomy he presents is BS. He wants to protect his legacy. Mr. Cook, on

Precedence is a serious issue in the U.S. While the end result of this case might not be an immediate, radical policy shift, it would certainly lay the groundwork for that in the future. You give the devil an inch... As others have said, t
