This is actually pretty awesome. People like Tsunku who have lost their voice to cancer or other diseases now have hope of regaining their voice. Now all we need is a surgery to actually put this to use

I've been saying for a while that I'd pay $5-10 a month to not hear those commercials about gastrointestinal distress or bladder issues, but this is even better!

If I recall correctly, TSMC is number one, and either Samsung or Global Foundries is number two. Pretty sure it's Samsung, sing Global FOundries has been having issues getting 14nm working.

Someone should devise a filter for various game servers that preemptively prevents them from joining and poisoning a community. Better yet, pen them up with their own and watch the chaos from a safe distance.

I seem to recall GOG doing similar tracking down of rights. They also try to get the promo stuff as well, with manuals and code wheels and such. They also do it for games that they haven't tracked down the rights for, too, in case one day they track down the rights and can sell it. A lot of people say that they just set up a DOSBox profile and are done with it, but I seem to recall they also go through with debuggers and see how to disable old forms of DRM that won't work (eg CD detection).

Forgive me if I'm missing something, but this seems to be exactly what GOG has been doing for years. Are they remaking them?

Just get a pile of AMD cards. Doesn't even matter what model they are as long as they're the same generation (and even then AMD's kinda given up on that). It'll make it easier to set them up as one giant monitor, and you won't get frustrated by running into architecture/power issues.

I'm still rocking a Phenom II x6, and in Linux when I have the CPU governor set to 'conservative' or something similar, it'll drop to 800 Mhz like it's nothing, and shed 40 watts of power consumption. Stock clock for it is 2.4 Ghz, but it'll go up to 3.5 Ghz just fine if I don't put it into sleep mode. How, then, is this such a big deal? Just because it's mobile?

Aw, wish I hadn't posted. I would all my modpoints to you.

If you really wanted to make it stop, there's a single blob of Javascript that does the redirection. I wouldn't know how to do it, but it seems the variable(or array or object, I don't know what it is in JS) 'de.bild.cmsKonfig' contains the actual redirection URL. I imagine a userscript designed to set that to null would render their anti-adblocking useless.

On my HTC One (M7), the emergency dialer is not the stock Android dialer, and when you try to highlight the text to copy it, it tells you that it's not an emergency number and therefore the call wasn't sent. Same with the unlock screen: you can't paste text into it. I imagine the only phones that could be susceptible to this are the ones who are very close to stock Android, and since they are close to stock Android, they won't be vulnerable due to the new way Android updates are handled (every part of the system sans kernel is an app that can be updated).

Because I don't use Adblock, Adblock Plus, or any other adblocker that bends to the whims of advertisers. Instead, I use uBlock.

I bought an Acer DA220HQL, a 21.5"(!) Android tablet.
It's actually more useful than it seems. We mounted it on the wall in a space we always pass by, and I set it up with Google Keep and Calendar, and synced the family calendars to it, as well as the shopping lists. I did have to use Raccoon to get the apps to install on it, and there are a couple reflow issues with they layouts, but you really can't notice. Now, could we look at a calendar or the shopping list on a phone? Yes, but you don't always have your phone, and having something always there is really useful.

I won't stand for this ridiculousness.

Set up your router so any unauthorized MACs are monitored via MITM. Strip away SSL, kill any SSH pipe or VPNs, log all traffic. Be sure to put up a warning in the middle saying what is happening and why. Something along the lines of "One of you rbuddies gave you my password. Therefore, I am going to record and save all data transmitted across this connection. If you do not consent to this, please opt-out by disconnecting." To be honest, someone's going to find a clever way to prevent this.
