The GSL has been the playground of the player many would argue to be the greatest of all time, Maru. Coming off a record fourth title victory in a row — before Maru, the most back-to-back championships anyone had achieved in the cuthroat Korean competition was two — it seemed like we were destined for more of the same when the Terran player found himself in a relatively easy Round of 32 group....

UPDATE: NBC has picked up Brooklyn Nine-Nine! Hulu has decided not to pick up Brooklyn Nine-Nine.

Mark Nottingham, chairman of the IETF working group behind creating the standards, said, “Many people believe that the only safe way to deploy the new protocol on the ‘open’ Internet is to use encryption; Firefox and Chrome have said that they’ll only support HTTP/2 using TLS.“ Introduction In a world where optimizing site response time produces real financial impact, the speed that a website loads is a key business metric that can’t be ignored....

Earlier this week, many websites reported that one of Xiaomi’s handset — the Redmi Note — was secretly sending users personal data including their texts and pictures to a server in China.

I’m a huge fan of IFTTT, the iOS app (and web app) that allows you to do really clever things completely automatically, just by creating or downloading an ‘if this then that’ rule–which IFTTT calls a ‘recipe.’ For example, if you’d like to save a copy of a photo anytime you are tagged on Facebook, there’s a recipe for that. Want to switch on a WEMO-controlled light when the sun goes down, there’s a recipe for that too....

The trailer for Thor: Ragnarok opens with a meme. As Thor (Chris Hemsworth) dangles over flaming pits, fighting against the shackles restraining him, his voiceover says “Now I know what you’re thinking: How did this happen? Well, it’s kind of a long story.” It’s not quite the freeze-frame Twitter joke that’s plagued many a timeline, but it decidedly sets the tone of the teaser, where the stakes are clearly high but the style is blatantly goofy and proud of it....
