What exactly is your point here? That certificates are worthless and shouldn't be used? (They aren't) That they are overused? (possibly). What's the alternative here anyways? two factor auth? I mean, I'm trying hard to find value in your post, but I'm not getting a lot of good points out of it. People misuse certs for sure, but that doesn't mean that as an authentication mechanism that they are useless.
I wonder how to get on one of these lists. I love wasting their time.
I need to install a XP virtual machine with a snapshot of a perfectly working system. As soon as they connect, restore the snapshot.
See how many times I can get them to connect to me before they hang up.
It doesn't really work like that.
I never had social anxiety before I was attacked.
Now i'm constantly getting it wherever i'm going. according to this whole "flooding" theory, i should be experiencing less social anxiety then ever because every encounter should seem less intense then that one.
Where exactly did you get this theory from anyways?
It was proposed by the police union, so you can pretty much garuntee that turning it off won't be a big deal to them. It really should be on 100% of the time, but I'm sure it will "break" at all the right times.
"'In a statement, the firm said the move was part of an "on-going push to ensure Nintendo content is shared across social media."
What the fuck does that have to do with ripping off content producers?
Based on the context it was more then just accessing publicly available data. It's not as if he clicked on an link and went "Oh, look, a bunch oh e-mail addresses!". There was effort involved into getting to that list.
That being said, even if he did run into a bunch of e-mail addresses by being in the wrong place at the wrong time.. e-mailing that list to someone and going "OMG LOOK AT THIS" was proof that he knew the seriousness of the list he found. It cannot be argued that he did not know what he was doing.
Actually, they are both at fault here.
I don't see a huge effort by Andrew to contact AT&T and say "uh, guys, you have a huge problem here".
It's very easy to percieve his actions in a malicious way.
Not that AT&T didn't goof, but this was the wrong way to address it.
>MS said they dropped doing the heavy processing on Kinect itself...
There is still that arm processor. It's being used for something. It could be used for something different.
> so I just checked - it's 512 megabits
Thats still too much for buffer. 512 megabits is 64 megabytes. Still more likely that it's for processing
We are arguing about symantics. my point is: This is more then just a couple webcams and a couple of mics. We could debate about the symantics till the cows come home, but at the end of the day there are no hardware solutions that quite reproduce what the kinect does. It's worth hacking.
>But the bulk of the interesting stuff happens on the X360
What? That may be true, but you don't know that. Nobody knows that except microsoft. I kinda doubt it anyways. Microsoft has been going on and on about how it will only effect the Xbox 360s cpu in single diget numbers.

There is another purpose for that RAM. > So, at best, there needs to be another machine loading the code anyway Possibly. But there is that flash memory on the board as well.... Probably used for code. I have no way of confirming this of course.

Possibly. But there is that flash memory on the board as well.... Probably used for code. I have no way of confirming this of course.
Not true at all. Look at the hardware spesification sheets... An arm processor and 512 megs of ram? Thats more then just a webcam and a couple of mics. There is some serious potential for having a hardware device that does some onboard processing.

Ugh notes. That deserves a trigger warning...
>That providing luxury services to the wealthy top echelons of organized crime Yeah, because the us banking industry is sooo much less scummy.
And yet, I can still understand your comment with relative ease.
can we be friends?

World of warcraft begs to differ. That was a great RPG.

Ipads are wonderful reference devices and even better video game machines. There aren't many places where I would recommend them for business.
"'[Mass killers such as Lanza] don't believe this was just a spreadsheet. They believe it was a score sheet. This was the work of a video gamer'.
Does this remind anyone else of Jack Thomson?
Bullshit reasoning, and totally fished out of someones ass conclusion.
Same thing happens here too. Big telcos hire out the installations to contractors (usually lowest bid) then dump them when the smallest thing happens.
>in an apparent protest at what it sees as reports which don't show the Syrian regime in the best light

Yes, because hacking people makes you look that much better.
And a news agency is?
Yeah, but he didn't bring "the gun" to a teacher. He brought it to a fellow student.

"this institution took four centuries to recognize that Galileo was right." Or more importantly, that the holocaust actually happened...
People who profit from other peoples' unethical behavior are accused of unethical behavior themselves? SHOCKER. AV companies are scum.
Wait, What? You could come up with any number of conclusions from that data.
Honestly, I interpret it as: overly social teens are more likely to have sex.
This is sensationalist reporting at it's finest. Totally bullshit.
