Yes gfycat is what partially inspired us too.


Will shutting down erase the vram completely? Also why does rebooting not erase the memory completely?


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold_boot_attack

I don't specifically know the answer to your first question if the VRAM is not DRAM (shared memory), but certainly rebooting will not simply automatically clear out DRAM.


shutdown clears, reboot doesnt.


Shutdown actually doesn't clear RAM, hence the "cold boot attack" terminology. Eventually the data will degrade, but eventually can be a long time.


Yeah. My comment was ment to answer the question above yours...


Also can you tell anything about Kivy?


Hi, have you used Kivy? I code in Python and have always wanted to build mobile applications. Do you think it is good?


I was looking into the peers seeding the torrent. There I found a host langley.fr seeding. That is how I got to the article.


This doesn't even need an email. So what is the problem.


The problem is that most people won't even click the "Register" link. For me personally it has nothing to do with email though. It's an obstacle which I can't be bothered with, even if it's just username and password.


The advantage of making you register is tracking your progress (and analytics, for the benefit of the webmaster). I suppose it could give you the option to just set a cookie, but that has the disadvantage of being device-specific. Also, some browser crashes can wipe out recently set cookies.


I couldn't be bothered coming up with a username and password for something that I only know is a "puzzle game", with no further information.


I think Lazarus does the same.


If you're speaking of http://getlazarus.com/, do you know why it isn't in the Chrome Web Store?


Exactly. Quora doesn't even need a valid email for registering.


completely true. some of the subreddits like /r/askhistorians are very good and the discussions there are awesome.


Can anyone explain how this works?I opened the URL in two different browsers and it works fine but I don't see any data in Fiddler.


You should see a code editor, that looks like Sublime, that you can write or paste code into. What browser are you using?


It is working fine for me. I wanted to know how the application works. I mean there should be HTTP requests going to the server, but I don't find any. The same is the case with the other browser where I am viewing the code.


Oh I see. Firebase is the magic behind that https://www.firebase.com/
