Yes - clearly you should never type your passwords for online services into anything that might be connected to the Internet.

I don't use LastPass for more important sites like banking (or even email), but I certainly use it to generate and store a secure password for all the random web forums I visit.

Yes, the speed limit is typically a maximum of 65mph with a few of the big open space states that go up to 75mph. While people typically do drive 70-80, most people don't get experience driving 100, and the traffic certainly wouldn't have been giving way for him to be driving that fast in the left lane so he almost certainly would need to weave around.

No, they just followed it closely enough to see where it landed

There must be a different tea party I haven't heard of, because the ones I've talked to have been full on cut everything/remember bengahzi/obama is killing america

The IRS isn't a critical infrastructure so that seems unlikely. The recently lost ones were on a hard drive that died so it's even more unlikely the DHS stole a copy.

What a confusing question... I have a CFL bulb that's been in use since early 2000's, but it's not my most recent. The most recent would be LED bulbs which definitely haven't failed yet.

I'm sure there's been a few cheapo CFLs over the years that have died, but they're not most recent either and I have no idea how long they lasted.

Given that is asks for my most recent, I'd have to say it's never failed, but the option "Never had one fail" refers to any bulb. Guess 3+ it is

Actually, we're MORE safe than ever, despite what we've done to ourselves with ridiculous measures. Education and social programs do a much better job than metal detectors.

That was my thought upon seeing them assembling the rectangular sections on site.

What does seem interesting is the idea at the end of the article of constructing a printer on site and having it print out more interesting shaped houses. In that case, there would be tremendous gains since this machine is very flexible in the patterns it can print. A work crew could spend a few days setting it up, 24h to print the house, then a few days polishing and cleaning up the printer. The roof might take a bit more time, but it could still be useful.

The lack of data services makes them not such an attractive option. The expensive in-flight wifi doesn't really cut it.

More interesting statistics would be the number of people that use devices at all during the flight, though that would be more difficult to determine.

Yeah when I point my phone at something I want it to tell me how far away it is and the surface temperature and all sorts of good things!

But bikes don't cause much wear-and-tear on the roads or emit toxins into the air.

That's a very strange definition of backup. Sounds more like you're talking about an offline backup. Typically backup systems are connected to the system that made them so they can be restored easily.

My (not very smart - no apps) TV can't even handle viewing the channel listings on broadcast for too long before it freezes/crashes/sound stops working. I can't imagine it would do very well if it had to handle more than 30 channels.

Routers are all so different- sometimes it's "port forwarding", sometimes "virtual servers", sometimes "gaming/applications" or something different entirely, not to mention different languages. With UPnP at least I can tell people "ok click around advanced settings until you see "UPnP", then make that enable" and that will sometimes work. It was a real pain to implement since as you said the documentation is terrible.

Current solution is to send the local ip, ip4 and ip6 of the server to the client, and they try connecting to all of those before more complicated stuff with ports has to happen. Even then there are problems with mobile and third-world country ISPs that issue a different IP per connection because they're doing NAT with multiple IP4s.

I finally got one with a chip, but it's chip and SIGN, not chip and PIN so that kind of defeats the purpose and makes it useless in other countries.
