Thoughts from the Geek

A SSD in Your Pocket

365 MB/s reads and 254 MB/s writes? Yes please! Needless to say, this thing handily saturates a USB 2.0 connection at around 27 – 30 MB/sec but plug it into one of those blue USB 3.0 ports on newer Macs or PCs and prepare to feel like the “blown away” guy in the Maxell ad.

Apple Said to Delay Live TV Service to 2016 as Negotiations Stall – Bloomberg Business

Apple Inc. customers waiting for the company to revolutionize live television as it did for music and phone service will have to keep waiting, at least until next year.

And it’s all because of a flaw that is all too common to mobile applications—reliance on a remote server’s certificate being valid, regardless of what network the connection is over.

Like I said yesterday, don’t trust a car company with computer security.

I mean, if a car company can’t even make a decent touchscreen with a usable interface in 2015, why should they be trusted with our security?
