A surveillance technology, intended only for lawful use, is being used unlawfully. Huh. Who could have seen that coming?

Required reading: "The Circle" by Dave Eggers. Skip the movie; the ending sucks and there's too much drama. The book neatly lays out how little steps towards a better life (like being able to find your lost dog) lead to an op

What I don't understand is how they get blindsided by the public's reaction. Do they not have high-powered PR teams to do market research? Or did they fire them when they came back with news that the self-centered execs didn&#x2

We implemented a very similar solution more than five years ago. The NanoPi R3S was not available then, so we used the GL.iNet GL-MT300N-v2 (aka Mango) running OpenWRT as our edge gateways. It's slow and only has two 100Mb ports, but

It's hard to take this rant seriously when the author chose to clutter his rant with snowflakes. If he's looking for more readers he's lucky I run uMatrix and chose to disable javascript instead of just closing the tab and m

Shareware has been around since at least the 1980s, kids. The value proposition is that you get to evaluate an app's quality first before committing a payment. If an app is unusable without an IAP, then that tells you about the develo

In Win98SE days, I setup a PC for my parents to use. It was their first computer, and I personalized it the way I setup mine: enable view extensions and path bar in Explorer, remove the Go button in IE, and so on. Then I got a call from my

Looks like the transformation of RHEL into a Windows clone is nearly complete. I'm all for it, as I expect a modern fork without systemd will coalesce for those of us that prefer Linux over Windows.

The engineer's method: there's a way to wipe all markings and still figure it out. If the compressor is off and turns on when you turn the knob clockwise, then clockwise sets it to a colder temperature. Conversely, if the compre

This makes me wonder, how does a certificate of death work? Could a doctor declare that it does not have a heartbeat, and is therefore dead? Would that remove its person-hood, as there is no person to represent it and show life in court?

You can blame the ever-increasing complexity of MS Windows for that. My parents are now on Linux, being that the only things they do on it, other than open the occasional email attachment, are all browser-based. It's easier for me to

I'm pretty sure this is more feature rich than dnsmasq, but the golang ipkg on the latest OpenWRT release is 99MB. My overlay filesystem started at less than 24MB. This software not for users like us. Perhaps someone will implement eq

The first link has no relevance to the discussion, and the second I had indeed read before posting. Need I point out that C++ IS NOT C. Being a good C++ programmer does not make you a good C programmer, and vis versa. I would argue, in f
