   Agreed. There are proxies which defeat detectors. If i were a fraudster i'd use those. So all you're doing is losing real customers.

   I run several mailservers but my main email addresses go to fastmail. the OP wants "low-maintenance". that's fastmail, it just works. I ran with protonmail too for a while, it's good, but costs about the same as FM. Unle

   and JPEG option to use arithmetic encoding. The patent expired YEARS ago and is saves 10-20% of the size. for some reason people still aren't using this option for JPEG (compatibility mostly).

   This is impressive, I'm going to start using this. I know that the wish list must be long, but I'd really like to see things that i CANT do in other editors, such as PS; (1) PS (the version i have anyhow) does not support PNG8 wit

   A while back i wanted to write my own calendar to support custom recurrence rules, as well as the usual ones you always get. Custom rules would include things like calculation of Easter and other holidays and events that move about like moo

    Hi, i have a similar app, which is free. I see that your app needs access to the Android contacts and calendar. I didn't want that for mine. I wanted something totally independent, secure and encrypted - but also sync across platforms

    point taken. but it need not be solved by increasing the barrier to entry. instead it's a ranking problem; make the poor titles sink to the bottom.

    i think this is bad news. "We will ask new developers to complete a set of digital paperwork, personal or company verification, and tax documents similar to the process of applying for a bank account." It's all about control

    i agree. Stuffing everything into one tin makes it too big with too short battery life. The problem with putting sensors & power in the strap is that it's not longer a watch insofar as you can change straps. personally, i think the

    It was great. but writing on a micro screen is no fun. press and swipe are about as far as it should go with wrist touch interfaces.

    yeah what possessed them to make people say "ok Google". I might as well say, "I'm an idiot". Was it not possible to make it start listening for commands when you activate it/turn wrist etc.

    I agree. I think the mistake made by the industry is selling them as "watches" and not gadgets like bands or wearables in general. A watch should be good to tell the time. smartwatches are a throwback to the 70's where you ha

    Haven't they figured out yet that telling the time is the thing that smart watches do the worst. instead, i want a band. I'm still waiting for an Android Wear band. i want something a bit like the Microsoft band 2 [1], but slimmer

    thanks. For web pages, I usually clear any existing metadata within images, then insert some simple (but correct) keywords about the image. Wondering if I'm wasting my time.

    Wow! I had the same idea over 10 years ago. I'm glad it's being done. My idea was using a giant P2P indexbase. However, I read the tech page, but it doesn't explain enough. For example, for this to work, there would have to b

    Hey thanks. I wasn't aware of the dylib appstore restriction. Is this still the case with iOS8 and if not, could a dynamic LGPL Qt app be put on the store. I hope they allow this going forward.
