InfoWorld has an article about Microsoft's Chakra and ChakraCore efforts as well: http://www.infoworld.com/article/3024271/javascript/nodejs-welcomes-microsoft-chakra-javascript-engine.html

It is a sales tactic...

I believe that they already did.

That's good! I haven't been following gaming news for awhile.

@MattSpeller If you have either of those, why would you need the other??? I'll keep my fentanyl and smack separate, thank you very much.

Those kids may have been on the Flakka.... did any of them eat each other's faces?

There was once a good old day when Linksys was good...

I run DD-WRT on a Netgear Blackhawk (D7000 iirc, not one of the new ones), and it's been solid. Of course Comcast decided to push a friendly firmware update to my cable modem this weekend which reset the config, took it out of bridge mode and re-enabled the modem's own DHCP and routing services (and Lord knows what else), taking me offline. Annoying (not to mention a potential security nightmare)... mostly because I spent an hour jacking around before it even occurred to me to login to the modem and check it's settings.

Are you me? lol

This happened to me a couple weeks ago - same setup, same software, different router.

For home laptop use (non-gaming) be sure to check out PC-BSD. It's screaming fast, super stable and very responsive.

In this particular article it was a solid, but not fastest, performer in the transcoding benchmarks they ran, which were about as close to web serfing and video watching. PC-BSD is the fastest bar none if you're compiling software or iops intensive workloads.

In the US, 102 of the stores are convenient store style stores, not normal sized Walmarts

All the closings in the US are within 10 miles of another one. and it said they are all the smaller non SUper Walmarts style ones. aka older.

It was really more than that, not non super walmarts, they are closing down their experiment against Family Dollar like stores (the article specifically called them convenience stores). There were a handful of other versions as well, I'm guessing some that weren't making money.

FTA, this looks like it only affects the SSH clients... Right?

"The problem involved a bug that exposed a memory leak to a malicious SSH server," Cox explained. "Because the data in question didn't cross any trust or execution boundaries, the malicious server could get the client to possibly leak sensitive authentication key data."

I think it's both. I ran my update playbook and everything was patched within about 3 minutes 🙂

Another great example of... can we trust closed source devices?

@Dashrender Here is the generalized spreadsheet I put together, once I'm assigned the /48 block from the ISP I fill it in and it auto populates everywhere else on the spreadsheet.

Cool DropBox can view Excel sheets in the browser.

Thanks

This would be an awesome project to see this community take on!

How did I know you were going to trash my windows phone 😉

Because: Windows Phone?

Seriously, with the other two operating systems, the app wraps it up nicely. So. Never checked if AT&T made a version for WP.

The app has no ability to lock down on usage. that is a monthly "add on" youhave to pay for with AT&T and TMO

now they are just syphoning money - this should be a free add-on. But that's just my opinion.

As a father of two children that will have phones, I agree.
