I do work with web projects, but I hardly live in github, sure it's an important tool and I tend to visit the site quite often especially if I'm working, but I see no need to keep it open all the time, but maybe I'm not solving hard enough problems for that to matter.

See that "you don't remember to close them down" part gets me, or rather doesn't. I mean I have a lot of tabs open when I'm working, but at the end of the day I close my browser and I don't have any fixed set of pages that it opens or last session, it just opens on the new tab page and asks for commands.

I just can't stand if my browser has so many tabs open I can't read the what the hell it is from the header and since I always use browser only on half of my screen with editor on the other side (actually since I have 21:9 screen I've split it in 3 so I can have project | editor | docs) that gives me at most like 15+-5 tabs to work with.

But maybe I'm just the weirdo out of everyone.

"to read a full story" and I didn't actually even care...

Not bunnyhopping, but similar idea a game called Gunz: The Duel had many animation glitches where you could cancel animation lock with higher priority move. The action would execute, but the animation would be cut in short with a shorter animation which allowed you to perform a new longer animation move.

Commonly it was called kStyle or "korean style" in west since the game was korean and koreans came up with the bug. It made the game everyone was doing it flying through the map with swords swinging wildly it was a lot of fun and definitely raised the skill ceiling and someone how it didn't seem nearly as cheaty as the bunnyhopper in articles video.

I hear quite a few people talking how they have 30-50 tabs open, how do people manage something like that? And why would anyone need so many simultaneous tabs open?

Unless Firefox opens sites instantly (instead of 1-2 sec wait) then I don't see any speed benefit.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that the author probably has a lot of heavy addons that do stuff that is not needed. Biggest example probably is AdBlock Plus which bogs down any browser considerably and poking around with family's and friends' Chromes I see that a lot of them have several ad blocking extensions as well as couple privacy extensions is it any wonder Safari or Firefox with no addons is faster?

I like the idea and the price isn't too bad either on it's own, but then I would have to get wifi lamps and a wifi coffee machine and a wifi door lock... I think I'll pass for now

They talk about ensuring that open source works on the machine, anyone else concerned if they will try to inhibit close source software? Like this whole shitstorm around GCC?

Yeah, I'm not aerospace engineer, but couldn't you just put the roof like 10 cm above the rotors so it has enough air flow?

I wonder if you could just create some kind of roof over the rotors, thus negating the "attack".

This might be a bit of a stretch, but if you were to send in plain text just something meta-ish like datetime and the actual message would be sent as image for example, could we get around this?

E.g. when your-favorite-three-letter-agency comes asking for decryption you just decrypt the plaintext portion for them?

Also there doesn't seem to be anything that is actually "countering" anything at the moment

I actually think Azure is nice platform, but they've effectively priced me out.

What I mean is that if I want a basic VPS on Azure it costs ~10€/mo to run the server for the month, but there are many VPS providers who offer a lot better hardware for same price.

I guess Azure is meant for bigger needs than mine where you can run 100-200€/mo by default and then scale up when needed, but since my little blog + test/dev server won't need to be scaled it just seems too expensive.

At first Oculus seemed like a cool idea, but you can really only play "simulator" games with it, games where you sit in a vehicle otherwise it ruins the VR feel and you might as well just play on a monitor.

Only other thing I've seen was some sort of sculpting thing, but I'd imagine the novelty would wear out there pretty fast.

More I think about whole VR thing the less I think it will actually be a thing. I'm sure when Oculus Rift comes out for reals a lot of people are going to buy them, but I don't really see a lot of value for developers supporting them in most games, but someone comes up with killer app/game for it.
