    Apps Can Track Your Every Move Even After Uninstalling Them in iOS and Android

    It's funny you mention that, I was going to say that this sounds like an andriod thing, bebcause ontop of iOS keeping everything in a walled garden, every app also operates only within it's own sandbox, and isn't able to cross-communicate outside of the api's provided by apple.

    No Man's Sky Making a Big Comeback

    just a heads up for anyone who got the GOG version (i.e. DRM Free) ; the multiplayer patch isn't coming for this version of the game until "later". Seeing as how they didn't get the previous patch at all.... it's difficult to tell when that may be.

    first guess would be that he's trying to defeat any kind of gait tracking he may/maynot be subject to (i.e. ultra-paranoid). second guess would be that he's extremely high/drunk. third guess, he knew they were after him and just got dressed quickly.

    US to China Soy Cargo Traded Using Blockchain

    My guess would be that a lot paperwork is usually meant to establish trust and reliability, so 1 paper to describe who you are and what you do, 1 paper to describe your banking information and collateral incase you default 1-2 pages of legalese spelling out all of the "don't screw me or else"...

    20TB Hard Drives May Be Made of Glass

    yes, yes they did IBM DeskStar series. It led to them selling their entire storage business to Hitachi. I'm pretty sure it was the guys at HardOCP that gave them the nickname "deathstar" drives because once the heads crash (and due to a math error at ibm, they were guaranteed to crash after ~1...

    I think this is to protect google from people abusing the Project Fi "no contract" program. If I were a horrible human being i could use fake/stolen identity information to sign up for project fi, buy a pixel xl through project fi via the payment plan; sell the pixel for cost or above cost...

    as was found when comparing the cart dumps he already did for the 721 USA/CA/MX carts, a good portion of the rom dumps out there don't match the originals. As it states in the article "As our own Chris Bratt found out when investigating Nintendo's own Virtual Console service, many of the...

    SNES Preservation Project "Dead" after USPS Loses $10K of Cartridges

    It bothers me that so many comments are "he should have purchased insurance! Duh! What a dumbass!" It clearly states in the article "The sender had insurance..." It's almost as if nobody bothered to read the full article in favor of just making snarky comments about how stupid people are...
