    I've had it with Firefox

    Your - "10 seconds on google" reveals what I posted which is - you NOW have only three options for all cookies. There is no longer an option to set permissions on a domain basis. The three options are no cookies, session cookies, or until they expire. This is for ALL cookies. What they have...

    I've had it with Firefox

    I have had it with firefox. I am using version 40.1, and they have removed the ability to automatically specify whether or not you want to allow a site to set cookies - i.e., under settings "Accept Cookies from Sites" - "Ask me every time" and then on top of that, all cookies are saved unless...

    Apple's Next iPhone Needs More Megapixels

    Here we go with another brain dead op-ed. I don't think that I need to echo the previous comments on the validity of adding more pixels to a crappy sensor with crappy optics, but I'll say does anyone at Tom's really know what they are talking about these days? I'll stick with my 7D and...

    Stop, Thief! Why Using an Ad Blocker Is Stealing

    On Tom's Hardware, links to "read comments in the forums" are always there. On Tom's Guide, where this article is actually posted, links to "read comments in the forums" are never there. Tom's IT - well forget that since comments are through third-party sites. How about making all the sites...

    Stop, Thief! Why Using an Ad Blocker Is Stealing

    Wow. Talk about having an opinion. You do know what Dirty Harry said about opinions don't you? I am sure since you researched this so well that you do know there is at least an inkling out there that TV advertising does not work. Yet the industry does not want to face this fact since it would...

    Ready? Google's Self-Driving Cars Going Public This Summer

    I am not trying to take anything away from driver-less cars since I would love to sit back and enjoy the ride, however, the main reason there are blind spots is that people are not educated about how to correctly adjust side-view mirrors. This is not the greatest explanation, however, for those...

    Tesla Powerwall Battery Ready to Power Your Home

    It almost certainly has a charge controller and charger, AC-DC inverter as you term it, included. If it did not, there would be no means of charging it. And, at least as I see it, other than size, getting 10kWh from lead-acid batteries is no more involved than getting the right charge...

    Quantum Dot to Bring Better Color to Smaller Screens

    Personally, I think claims of cheaper to produce than OLEDs, while true for the moment, are rather empty. In large sizes, you can pick up LG's 55EA9800 for $1,999 US these days down from $10,999 us when introduced which is a rather marked decrease. As OLED ramps up, prices are going to plummet...

    Apple Acquisition Could Give Next iPhone DSLR-Like Camera

    Maybe crApple's next feat will be to figure out how to warp the space in front of the camera to form a gravitational lens while holding the sensor at a sufficient distance to make it perform as if it were a bigger sensor. After all, crApple is great at innovation. LOL

    Apple Acquisition Could Give Next iPhone DSLR-Like Camera

    The thing is that if it had "big glass" in front of the lens, the results would be significantly better. I am willing to bet that the image quality would not compare with a DSLR possessing a similarly endowed sensor such as the Canon 5 DS...

    Apple Acquisition Could Give Next iPhone DSLR-Like Camera

    The thing that will give this DSLR performance is optics that are equal or superior in quality to the "big glass" that DSLRs use. So far, no consumer grade company has yet figured out how to take advantage of the laws of physics to make a small lens that is anywhere near as good as the "big...

    1 Million Apple Watch Orders Already Beats Android Wear

    Have pity on them! They have no control over their belief that their image is directly related to how many crApple products they own. LOL

    Apple Watch Doubters Wrong: You Need a Smartwatch Now

    If your e-mail is an then the phone should be one that your company bought you. In all likelyhood, that same company will not buy you a smart watch. If that e-mail is an and the phone is not one that your company bought you, then I suggest that you need counseling regarding how to separate...
