I don't see why Apple would try to rip me off any more than my ordinary bank would. I already get zero interest, with a few banks even going negative, and the deposits themselves are FDIC insured anyway. What are they going to do, take the principal and run? Personally, I don't even have a savings account. No point to it, when you can just keep it in your checking account for the same interest or invest it. Anyway, my point is this, retail banking is one of those industries which really should have gotten disrupted yesterday, and I'm glad to see it finally happening, with all the fintech startups and robo-advisors and whatnot.

Well, if their ROM hacks are any good, people will find it worth to run Project64 in an emulator to keep playing them. If not, then no loss. Free market will fix it. As for the SetCombine hack, isn't that nearly trivial to fix too? Ugly, but it should work: 1) load game in an emulator 2) use cheat codes to load each level 3) intercept 0xB7 (F3D_SETGEOMETRYMODE) commands, log the level and correct geometry mode to file 4) go through level display lists, s/old geometry mode/correct geometry mode/g A skilled developer could perhaps even do it in vitro with static analysis.

The handover is when it all went wrong. They should have given it over to Taiwan instead. Would have solved all their problems and then some, without violating the actual treaty. I really don't get why they did it - the SU had fallen, so they didn't really have any need for China anymore. I guess it follows whatever happened to them as caused by that since then they had coming. Man, what is it with the UK and more or less openly supporting their own enemies?

This still does not make me a Canadian nor a DeviantArt user.

Is this some kind of euphemism? There's no symbolism to it, I just thought `tr -dc a-z < /dev/urandom | head -c 10` was a bit rude and 'username' a bit dull. Usually I just post as Guest or Anonymous or make a throwaway account, but hardly any sites allow that anymore because it's not "best practice" or whatever. It's a shame, really. If they wanted identities, there already exists such a thing as salted IP address hashes, which work fine for all practical purposes. (The dedicated shills and schizos can afford proxies and Indians, so they are not deterred by any of these measures, but require expensive moderation, which is why hardly any news websites allow comments except possibly through Facebook) There was a certain photograph about which you had a hallucination.

What would they even replace it with? Even if they were to start writing all their code in WebAssembly, web developers would just pile additional layers of abstraction on top until it got too slow for their machines again.

What's wrong with DNS over HTTPS? Fixing ISP MITM attacks once and for all is a commendable idea. Not allowing hosts file blockers is a shame, but it really would not be a problem if you did your ad blocking like everyone else. >Then, there is no effort applied to get those crapcoders turned into decent coders, even more when your language have significative flaws. When you fix the flaws and your language becomes a first (or second) class citizen, it's already too late: noone wants to use your language anymore, and the files have fled away to a fresher cow dung. But 'fixing the crapcoders' is never even a goal. If you give them more training, they cost more money for no good reason. Likewise for them, they want to be done with it so they can start making money instead of going to school. And since the apps generally have a best-before date of a few months, long-term maintenance stuff doesn't tend to pay off. The financial incentives simply aren't there to make anything better. If you make the language easier, then that will just cause a corresponding decrease in hours of training the average coder has. Java is 'harder' than JS in the sense that producing a MVP is more expensive: an error in Java will probably give you a compile error or runtime exception, whereas in JS it will just give an odd result somewhere which isn't really the end of the world. You could argue languages should be harder, but then the code gets more expensive and it's also a politically controversial move. Thus the current state of affairs will continue indefinitely, since it's driven by demographic changes which will never be reversed.

Posted by CaptainJistuce HTTPS is also a mistake which ought to be thrown out and redone with modern technology. The whole deal is that it has to be violently killed off - if DNS is allowed to coexist peacefully, what will happen is just that malicious actors will NXDOMAIN the use-application-dns.net record and then filter as usual. This is a golden opportunity in which the financial incentives for once line up with freedom, and it should not be squandered! Posted by tomman In what threat model is "Mozilla refuses to switch over my DNS" an issue but "Mozilla does all sorts of malicious stuff with the code" A-OK? Running it through CloudFlare is not ideal, but it's the best you can get. ISPs can be compelled to censor websites, for instance. CloudFlare only rarely engages in censorship. DNS is also a bit disgusting and it's a shame they didn't take the opportunity to introduce some kind of cryptographic proof of integrity while they were at it, but you can't have it all here in life. Sorry, I'm not installing extra bloatware on my clients. It's DNS or bust, and that's also set in stone for me. I also want every visitor to my network to benefit without forcing him/her to also install extra bloatware on their clients (particularly on cellphones, where not everybody is a phone nerd) But this is a completely ham-fisted way of going at things which should never be supported. How is Firefox to know you're using a trusted DNS server? The model of "because I tell it so" has clearly been shown to fail. The matter of fact remains: whether you like it or not, googleads.g.doubleclick.net does resolve to an ad domain, and this is not up to you to decide. There is such a thing as an objective truth, and this should not be interfered with - rather the filtering ought to be done on the level of the user-agent - that which represents the user, unlike the other components. When you bring a device to somewhere which does not implement your censorship, or the regulator decides to DNS block politically sensitive websites, what then? Treating filtering of content as a supported behavior is a "good intention," and such should fail as violently as possibly. There was a certain photograph about which you had a hallucination.

Posted by wertigon Bunch of snake oil. With their budget, they could make 3G much more secure (connect only to once cell tower at once, modulate power so that the tower-perceived signal strength remains constant, generate new IMEI for each connection), but instead they just separate it out and call it a day. At a bare minimum, they should make one with removable baseband chips where each baseband can only ever interact with one SIM card and vice versa. They're fighting a losing battle though. The writing on the wall is clear as day, and it's a far more productive endeavour to see what positive effects these new developments have. Take the cashless society, for instance. Sure, the loss of privacy is regrettable, but nothing can be done about it, and when you see past this there are many upsides. For instance, I haven't seen hardly any gypsies for a long time now - they used to be everywhere, but now I mostly see them when I go abroad. With the old people dying off, cash is going to find itself in a position similar to, say, walking around with a funny look on your face and pupils dilated - entirely legal, but the police might want to have a bit of a chat with you. With time, it ought to become grounds for arrest. It's not hard to see then what would happen to the rates of crime and other such behavior. With no ATMs, how are you going to exfiltrate cash from the bank account? (As for the concerns about human rights: it's like playing Russian Roulette and betting it all on red; either the people you agree with are in charge or they aren't, so that's 50/50) There was a certain photograph about which you had a hallucination.
