Inside Gmail for Android: ads. Lots of ads.

"This guy fucks."

What "security industry"? In how many companies nowadays is sitting and thinking things through an encouraged approach? It goes against the current economical values. The problem are not IoT vendors, the problem is money-driven economics.

How great. Can't wait for "Music for tech-savvy young adults with interest in retro games" or "Music for Asian women aged 35-45".

Before these industry-disrupting services emerge though, I guess I'll just stick to music that I like.

Does anyone know what the maximum possible (combined-)output resolution of the Radeon Pro 460 is? I'm having a hard time finding this info on AMD's website.

Why replace the wifi card if you don't mind me asking?

"Why Tokyo Is the World’s Best Food City"? Because the author uses the word "fucking" at least once per paragraph. That is why. So off I go to Tokyo, visibly impressed.

Could it be that nepotism exists in the (free) free market world? Shocking.

I'd just gone through the process of moving some ~40 accounts on various websites from having a Yahoo email address to a Gmail one. By far the most unpleasant experience was with PayPal.

First I changed my email address. I received a confirmation and re-activated my account. Nice so far. Then I thought I'd generate a new, longer password. I pasted the 24-character password into the settings form. It was saved successfully.

After trying to login again though, it just wouldn't accept my login! So I went through the password recovery process. I received a link and then was asked to answer security questions. The security questions were ancient, so I facepalmed at first, but I was pretty sure I got the answers right after some thinking. It took me 10 tries to get the proper variation of the answers (it doesn't tell you which one is wrong).

Then I was presented with the new password form. I tried to paste the new 24-character password again. This form didn't allow you to paste the password in, you had to type it in manually for "added security". Then I realized the password was limited to 20 characters, and the previous form (in account settings) was just happily letting me paste a 24-character password while trimming the end silently!.

And this is 2016 on the web...

Unfortunately, even though I would very much like to abandon mine (even though it's used only for some spammy registrations), email forwarding is not possible unless you pay them, which is obviously out of question.

So basically, the best I can do is start changing my associated email address at the services I care about that are still using my yahoo email address. After a while, my yahoo inbox will be 100% spam (as opposed to 90% spam now), so I'd be able to move on.

From the pricing, and the fact that the blue version is available only in the US, this seems to be an "iPhone for Muricans that don't want an iPhone" (for whatever hissy fit). Now they have a choice, exactly like between Republicans and Democrats. Enjoy your HTC Pixels.

2016, ladies and gents.

  Everyone is hypersensitive.  
  Nobody thinks or researches anything past a Google search.  
  Everyone has an opinion.  
  Everyone is on the internet.  
  Everyone yells everything they think on social media.
