If you put every option in a GUI, there would be so much stuff that nobody could find anything.

I encrypt everything that leaves my house since it could be easily lost or stolen, but it is rather inconvenient.

If someone breaks into my house, I've got bigger problems than someone getting their hands on my media collection. I think it would be more likely for me to mess something up and loose access to my data than for someone to steal it.

Yeah, that's not a prank. That could have killed people if nobody noticed it.

I hope they lock his dumb ass up for a long time.

You don't get segmentation faults if you don't have an MMU. That can certainly make debugging more interesting when your firmware starts overwriting memory that it shouldn't until it finally crashes.

To add it to Firefox search, open about:config and add a boolean value browser.urlbar.update2.engineAliasRefresh set to true. This will allow you to manually add search engines. Then open the search settings and click add. Set the URL to https://www.google.com/search?udm=14&q=%s, give it a name and click "Add Engine".

I would return that shit immediately. There is absolutely no use for smart functionality in a computer monitor. I would suspect it's a TV sold as a monitor and will have the same issues as using a TV as a monitor.

Oh nice, maybe I will get a check for less than the cost to mail it in 5 years.

All of the mirrors listed on their website are safe. Just pick one close to you. If it downloads too slow, you can try a different mirror. If you know how to use bittorrent, you can use their torrent link. It will typically be the fastest.

You opt out by simply never giving them any of your data.

ARM is great on Linux where almost everything has an ARM version and apple can simply mandate that everyone supports it, but where are you going to find windows programs compiled for ARM?

It's better than having some streaming service delete your show while your in the middle of watching it. It's also better than finding out you can only watch in SD because they don't approve of your CPU, GPU, monitor, operating system or web browser after paying for a subscription.
