News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

Exactly. The same at night, I log into my World of Warcraft account, and play-act like I'm a night elf druid, because it's fun.

How do you know they lied? What if they implemented it but simply did not flip the switch?

Ah, so they are three days late. That doesn't sound too serious.

Is it expected from all CAs that they obey CAA records, or is it something just made up by the community to crush the big CAs? I see an RFC from just a few years ago, and I'm not sure how these things are standardised.
Image macro memes in 2017 is like putting fingers down my throat.

Multi-monitor works fine. Single monitor, high DPI is very tricky, and barely works, never consistently (like, GNOME looks fine, but Firefox looks tiny). Multi-monitor, where every monitor has a different DPI value, has absolutely no support.

It's the iPhone X, which is supposed to be the end of the line. The iPhone 8 will be priced as it has always been.

Mozilla is biased (towards open internet, liberalism, etc) so evidently this is an opinion piece--they are asking us to stop something they don't agree with!

You remind me of a friend who, as an excuse for having bought a mobile with shit battery, used to say: "well this way I don't look at it that much!!!". Bollocks.

Windows since the Creators Update also does multiple displays and DPIs right.

By the way, support for that is completely non-existant on Linux.

What I meant, although I guess it wasn't clear, is that from my own experience a vandal is many times not what you expect him to be. Sometimes, he's some guy with glasses who posts on Hacker News. And sometimes, that vandal is not a he, but a she. I've seen it all. :)

None, because nobody hates lighting bulbs or metro card readers, while every driver hates speed bumps.

Well, maybe not all drivers, but one driver who hates that damn speed bump that he has to drive over every day is enough to make that baby bleed. :)

I'm just being realistic. I've lived in an impoverished area all of my life and I know how things here work. I'm saying what I honestly believe would happen with these.

Let's see if you shed a tear when a car breaks and city hall (this is, all the citizens, including you) has to pay for it.

Being Spanish, I know someone will stab those with a knife or a screwdriver the first day they are installed. That someone might even be me.

I mean I'm happy they are proud of their invention but, please. Don't make me laugh.

I don't know of any websites that force me to agree to a privacy policy so I can access it while logged off.
