apache ab. nginx serves static and dynamic content faster. not sure how many other metrics one needs to gauge a web server's performance.

I for one switched all my web servers from apache to nginx. It simply performs better.

I guess Skull Candy is gonna get sued... ?

There's something sketchy about having google control access to my remote desktop...

The old "they do it too, so it's ok" defense.

If their job was killing children, would you be arguing semantics about the difference between following their mandate and whether their actions are permissible?

Does it not seem strange to you that you're ok with spying on others, but you're not ok with spying on you?

So spying on China is ok, what about other countries? Can we spy on Canadians? They're not American, so I guess that's a yes?

I'm assuming you have some evidence that your car was towed, right? Like a receipt, or testimony from the driver of the tow truck?

It was being towed in gear with the passenger in the front seat? (cars can sense when there is someone sitting in the seat).

As someone who had godaddy hold my domain hostage, this is great news.

GoDaddy had received a single complaint from an anonymous source, which was apparently enough for them to threaten to revoke my domain if I didn't pay their $200 extortion fee.

I'm pretty sure the car reports whether or not the car was on or off when it was moving...

If Ford knows people are committing crimes, aren't they legally required to report it, otherwise they become an accessory..?

And they're adding a new layer of costs. Now instead of just paying for your bandwidth, you have to bribe hundreds of local ISPs to allow access to them.

This is just a sneaky way for AT&T to break net neutrality, first they offer special access to companies with deep pockets, next they start explicitly charging companies for mere access.

You're saying it's not legal for me to run a store that has a TOS that all entrants must agree to which has a clause that says, "i can shoot you in the face if I feel like it"?

Damn, I thought I had found a loophole!

Google doesn't (as far as I know) save that data or send it to 3rd parties. Facebook appears to be creating a profile based on those keywords and using it for yet to be defined purposes.

Contextual ads require context.

If all someone is doing is running a function that looks at keywords then displays a relevant ad, this doesn't both me.

If they collect the keywords, save them to a profile db, then sell that profile to others, that's a far more obvious violation of privacy.
