On paper you should be able to do the same with a HTML5 manifest file.
Don't get me wrong, it's a really neat wrapper, I'm just curious about why I should use this library instead of an already in HTML5 implemented, easy way which does pretty much the same?
Re:To Reduce VR Sickness, Add a Virtual Nose
on Tuesday April 21, 2015 @08:29AM (#9413551)
It's called seasickness and known for thousand of years.
You get it or you don't and there is nothing technology could do about it for a long period of time at least.
Well someone could take some medicine before playing VR, but that would be a little bit too much, wouldn't it?

A few months ago I read an article where the author interviewed a hacker with a good reputation (sry, forgot the name) and where they talked about a bunch of VPN providers.
The hacker mentioned https://www.ipredator.se/ as a very good VPN service for various reasons. I'm using it since then and they accept Bitcoin as payment.

"...they nonetheless impliedly consent to Google’s practices by virtue of the fact that all users of email must necessarily expect that their emails will be subject to automated processing.
Just as a sender of a letter to a business colleague cannot be surprised that the recipient’s assistant opens the letter, people who use web-based email today cannot be surprised if their communications are processed by the recipient’s ECS provider in the course of delivery.
Indeed,“a person has no legitimate expectation of privacy in information he voluntarily turns over to third parties.” Smith v. Maryland, 442 U.S. 735, 743-44 (1979)..."
I think this is a good summary.
Re:Chrome's insane password security strategy
on Tuesday August 06, 2013 @07:00AM (#6165879)
At least on Windows, Chrome uses a provided API function which makes the encrypted data only decipherable by the Windows user account used to encrypt the password. So essentially, your master password is your Windows account password. As a result, once you are logged into Windows using your account this data is decipherable by Chrome.

The site seems to be very fast and reliable. I like the Javascript header and I love your pricing model. :P
To be honest, I think jpmc is right. Allowing demo users to upload files on a real server could cause U some serious damage one day.
