WoW64 should really be deleted, and only 64-bit Windows programs should be developed.
You mean like Microsoft releasing a 64-bit DRIVER FOR ITS OWN 32-BIT ACCESS DATABASES? You can praise MS for their maintaining the ability to run legacy apps, but in some very meaningful instances, they're no different than phone companies refusing to patch Android phones just to cynically move more merch.
[Detecting weapons is NOT the purpose of TSA]...giving you the feeling that your government cares and reacted to 9/11 and other threats is.
Yes, but never forget the lucrative windfall that assholes like Micheal Chertoff gained through all this kabuki horseshit.
Not to mention all this security conditions the easily-led public to not bother questioning the need for Endless War (TM), which is also a very, very lucrative business for those that created it.
FedGov needs to take a different angle: if carriers refuse to issue critical security updates to phones less than five years old, they need to be levied a healthy fine based on the number they've sold that are -solely through their indifference - destined to generate tons of easily avoidable e-waste. That is a quantifiable, undeniable result of their inactions and they should be brutally punished to send a message.
Or the FCC / FTC could actually do their fucking job to protect consumers from pricks that see vulnerabilities as nothing but an 'opportunity' to sell new phones.
Many viruses preferentially infect cancer cells. Malignancy can suppress normal antiviral responses, and sometimes the mutations that drive tumour growth also make cells more susceptible to infection.
I suspect the tumors will just add the viruses uniqueness to its own.
Everyone dreads going to a car dealership because the people you deal with (salesman) are the result of the most brutal, Darwinian economic system ever devised: commission sales. Their base salary - if they even get one - is absolute shit thus they lie, cheat, steal, back-stab, whatever it takes to make the very, very short-term sale. If it was a six-figure car, they would probably kill a drifter for you if that's what it took to get a signature. It's Glengarry Glen Ross and indeed: third place is you're fired.
Car dealers and their sales (and also selling unneeded repairs and service to clueless customers - even when they're in for just a recall, FFS!) stands in stark contrast to the current story on Slashdot about the credit card service company.
... is that crystal meth is relatively easy to obtain, and it can be converted to Sudafed. [io9.com] Now all we need is for researchers to simplify the process and provide a practical process for the layman.
While the greed pigs make money hand over fist before stealing away in the dead of night, leaving nothing but destruction (and dead-end, labyrinthine LLC shell companies) in their wake.
Actually I'd be less worried about the spying and more worried about the radiation dosage. X-Rays are ionizing radiation and exposure to them increases the risk of cancer.
In about 5 years, the very operators of this illegal equipment will start coming down with cancer. Odds are, their employers will deny them benefits and suppress any legal redress they attempt.
In the long run, it's a dumb choice to become a Storm Trooper for an evil empire. Being a 'badass' with a badge comes with a price tag (this time in the form of cancer).
Daily State Department press briefings with verifiable evidence of the actions, with the same basic script every time: "Given that our Chinese friends have pledged not be engaging in nor benefitting from such actions, one can only conclude they have lost control of their internal domestic networks."
The Chinese government would hate nothing more than being publicly accused of not having iron control, to the point of possibly even shutting the hacking down for real.
I have a Gen1 Moto G and given it is on the POS Verizon network, I have all but two of the Stagefright vulnerabilities and no doubt will until the sun explodes. The normal advice is to get a new phone that has a chance of a decent length of support, meaning Apple [insert walled-garden retching sounds here] or the Nexus line.
But the enlarged heart of the problem is the GIGANTISM that still runs amok among capable phones. I don't want anything larger than what I have (needing a backpack to lug around what are now basically phablets that won't fit into even American-sized pockets), which leaves me virtually no choice than the screendoor security I already have.
I guess I could try the hacked ROM path, but even now it seems so patchwork and stable as a house of cards (nightlies? for a fucking phone?) and I just can't imagine such rag-tag bands has perfected true security, leaving one open for the next lucrative zero-day (or taking a big check from organized crime to build-in a backdoor).
An entire fucking nation of Lenin's 'Useful Idiots'. Thanks for the police state, you pack of knuckle-dragging thought-free troglodytes and Helicopter Parents insisting their precious snowflakes be safely ensconced in a damned panopticon
Possibly one way Adobe Systems makes money is by allowing vulnerabilities supplied by secret government agencies. Those agencies can spend billions of dollars of taxpayer money without public oversight.
Given that Adobe, while being the major vector of insecurity on the web, has never even been lashed with a wet noodle by the Feds, one can only conclude they are given cover for exactly this.
It's almost as funny as the US public still believing their elected officials are actually in control of the organs of state security (thems wit everbodys skeletons).

they go with round windows this time.

An erg, as my high school physics teacher related to us, is equivalent to one mosquito push-up.
He should have declared a hunger strike; a fitting contrast to the rapacious greed he is fighting against.
Westerners don't use this tool nearly enough which is ironic, given that most Americans could last quite awhile before succumbing to starvation.

Now make it phone-sized, instead of the current run of gargantuan semi-tablets.

"Not on your life, my Hindu friend!"
Monocable!!
Hush! It's been years since I've played F-Zero! Don't screw this up for me!
This is so unlike the trustworthy NSA and their rock-solid, shenanigan-free encryption wares.

Quoting anything from Breitbart speaks volumes about agendas and attitudes.
Yeah: e-waste.

Great plan!

This can also be ascribed to Uber drivers, Amazon packers, the entirety of the fast (and even slow) food industry...
I assume these WiFi-enabled kettles are from the Useless As Tits On A Boar range.
