Cloud can be done 'right' with some forethought and skill, though. Unfortunately, that costs money.
Money and good sense. It can be done pretty well. But the problem is that given the nature of people, especially people who would buy their children toys like this - they simply won't. If regular folk by this time still refuse to use good passwords and practice good security - they never will.
I recently encountered a site which had a maximum password length of 20 characters.
My password now contains a message to whoever thought this was a good idea.
I'm pretty sure somebody will read that message soon enough.
I suppose for the the kids, the password will be 1Mommy, or some other hard to guess - oh wait - what password?
It seems like there should be some kind of criminal negligence when security is this bad and people's personal data is being handled. In the UK they would likely be fined by the Data Protection Commissioner.
I don't disagree. But if people by now do not recognize that the Internet of things in the cloud is inherently unsafe, and that manufacturers don't recognize that the same people who buy an IoT toy or a device that allows them to open and close their living room curtains with their smartphone aren't going to apply good security measures, well, the whole thing falls under the category that simply because we can do something doesn't mean we should do something.
He makes 160k, with bonuses I make 80k. He pays $3k in rent, my Mortgage is $1500 a month. I'm not broke, somehow this guy is?
I've worked with many people especially early in my career who made a good bit more than me - who lived paycheck to paycheck, and whined about how poor they were. It was amusing as well to hear them whine about how it was worse for them than people making less. One guy rambled on about how if you make more, you have to have higher expectations.
When in fact, they just suck at managing money. If you suck at managing money, you'll always be in financial deep yogurt no matter how much you make. If you have to have a new car every two years, and you have to live in a house that the bank was getting skittish about lending you the money for it, and you have to refi it in order to take the entire neighborhood to Disney World, you'll always have money problems. Oh yeah, several children by 2-3 wives can empty your pockets pretty quickly.
I retired on what I was bringing home 12 years early, With less taxes to pay and less suits to buy, and no more mortgage, it was a hellava raise. Yet the people who can't manage their money couldn't understand that at all. Even when I laid out the figures for them.
And if a person gets upset at the message, well, welcome to the world of always having money problems. It isn't bragging, its a conceptual alternative to a life of debt. Plan and manage well, kids.
It does. It also illustrates your rather disappointing lack of humor.
It could just be that you aren't as funny as you think you are.
Do you just skim posts, finding something to take umbrage at? Didn't read what I wrote after that? Allow me to explain.
You didn't have to find it funny. A person would look at that, and say "that's ridiculous" some might find it funny, some not. And that's okay. But even so, a display of non-insulting humor where a poster pokes fun at themselves, indicates an extension of friendly notion, that even if if the recipient does not find it amusing, at least they can make some judgements.
And your response tells me much about you, taken with your other posts like:
Only if your definition of race comes from the 19th century, which in itself is a little racist.
Just because the stupid end of society can't deal with grey doesn't mean the rest of us can't.
Nice.
And it's where left wing, reshuffle everything idealists end up turning simple concepts into meaningless messes. And where you don't understand why when a decent majority of people believe in most of your concepts, you are adamant about derailing the train for the least important matters.
And herein lies the point of your babble. A little rant about the left, or the democrats, or whoever it is you hate.
I have to chuckle, when there are others here who label me as a liberal or socialist. No, actually I tend to analyze a situation, and put it to a test of whether it makes sense, and if it is likely to work, or it it is just screwed up ideology. I've torn conservatives to shreds when they try to trump science with politics and declare the energy retention characteristics of different gases, or when they express such a faulty concept of human nature as to believe in trainwreck economics like the trickle down effect or Laissez-faire.
But the left comes into a well deserved beatdown when they require 88 genders, which means that a simple term once based upon what parts you were born with, has completely changed to mean sexual preference. And so fluid that there is somehow a difference between the aforementioned Transsexual man, and Transsexual male.
For the record I have no political leaning, both sides are as crazy as each other, so anyone attacking one, is clearly on the other and therefore to me just as crazy.
Racist, stupid, and now crazy. What a bundle of joy you are. handing out the pejoratives like candy at Easter.
Your idea of labeling anyone who criticizes one political affiliation as automatically belonging to the other political affiliation is simply wrong, especially when you seem to demand fluidity in other matters, yet are in a big hurry to label me as something that I'm not.
Race as a social construct is very nice for psychologists, but tell me, is it bad to know that people originating from a certain area and subject to certain diseases by their genetics now forbidden knowledge? Is the very researching of this sort of thing racist? From the article:
"What the study of complete genomes from different parts of the world has shown is that even between Africa and Europe, for example, there is not a single absolute genetic difference, meaning no single variant where all Africans have one variant and all Europeans another one, even when recent migration is disregarded," Pääbo told Live Science. "It is all a question of differences in how frequent different variants are on different continents and in different regions."
Wordsmithing, and basically completely abandoning race altogether for some regional approach that will soon become race again.
But they won't let race be fluid, while gender can be. I don't understand, gender is much more defined. We all descended either from Adam and Eve - or - from the same group of curious monkeys. When we breed between races our offspring are not sterile like a liger or mule. But, for some reason it isn't PC to let race be fluid while gender can be.
To be blunt, the gender morass as they are trying to define it, has shifted from sexual characteristics to sexual preferences, and in doing so, they have shown themselves to be rather obsessive compulsive about attaching a label to everything in sight. Even worse, they are wordsmithing so obsessively that in their world of genders, a Transsexual male is not the same gender as a transsexual man. A distinction with no difference.
And yeah it's like the opposite for race.
One might be forgiven for believing that they just like bitching.
If your position is that transgender persons deserve to die, well, I suppose that would be logically consistent. I'd very much hope that not to be the case, however.
They are just people, and I don't care at all. If someone is happy, and not abusing/harming others, It's all good. There is one thing worth mentioning though.
There might be many reasons for wanting to go transgender, and a person would do well to seek out some counseling before making the jump.
If a person's concept of themselves is of the opposite sex than they were born with, and they are reasonably comfortable with that, then by all means. But there might be other issues.
I watched a documentary about two different people who were born biologically male, but felt they were actally female. Both of them underwent hormone threapy to grow breasts, and had sexual reassignment surgery. Both were attractive in the normal sense. Apparently a sex reassignment success story.
Then after a few years, both decided that they no longer wanted to be female! Stunning, and horrifying. You don't just grow a new penis when yours has been cut off. Some decisions we make are pretty final. So both stopped hormone therapy, but had altered their lives in a bad way forever.
As I noted, I don't care at all about gender reassignment. But given that a person who might be psychologically dissatisfied with themselves for one reason or another, and thinks being the opposite sex is the cure, had better get someone to work through it with them.
And as we increasingly expand simple concepts like race or gender, it merely dilutes them to the point of pointlessness.
You mean that as we discover that not everything is black and white, nature tends to be infinite shades of grey, we should just give up and stick with black and white?
I mean nothing of the sort. Can't imagine why you would think that. It's well known that in the hypothetical situation of lining up everyone in the world by skin pigmentation, it wouldn't be possible to make a determine what race a person belonged to. But let's say we wanted to get involved in some genetic diferences between people that miht result in their propensity for certain diseases. Tay-Sachs ideas, which appears in the genetic population of Ashkenazi Jews, and Cajuns in Southern Louisiana. Interestingly enough, this genetic mutation, which is fatal if two carriers have an offspring, can protect against Tuberculosis, which is why the allele persists. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...–Sachs_disease
Sickle Cell disease, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... which is probably the one you are most concerned about, is one carried by people from Sub-Saharan Africa. Some people in the Middle East also carry this genetic allele.
People from Sub-Saharan Africa have Vitamin D Issues when living in northern Latitudes, and people in Northern Lattitudes are prone to melanoma when outside of their area of origin or latitude.
All based on the grouping of where the person originated.
Since the second half of the 20th century, the association of race with the ideologies and theories that grew out of the work of 19th-century anthropologists and physiologists has led to the use of the word race itself becoming problematic. Although still used in general contexts, race has often been replaced by less ambiguous and emotionally charged synonyms: populations, people(s), ethnic groups, or communities, depending on context.
Ideology. The same application of human ingenuity that allows conservatives to deny simple concepts like the Greenhouse effect, 20th century Soviet Communists to deny genetics for their more ideologically acceptable Lamarkian theory, where a organism can change into another by something akin to will. Where Liberals can declare Genetically modified foods as poison, while disreagrding that humans have genetically modified food for thousands of years. And for both liberals and soncervative subgroups to insist that the thimerosol in vaccines causes autism, then shift to "it must be something else, but its still the vaccine!" when thimerosol is removed and no change is observed - and to hold that belief when it is concusively proven that the researcher was invilved in a scam with a lawyer to strike it rich. Ideology can raise us to new heights, or kill us.
And don't even go to your next move, which would be to accuse me of liking crackpot theories like the Bell curve, which presumes racial superiority by virtue of averaging IQ tests, that most unsatisfactory method of measuring intelligence. It's bullshit, and tells you nothing about any individual person you meet. Also used mainly by White's are superior people as some sort of excuse for keeping those sub-saharan's out of power. Oddly, they don't say much about East Asians being presumably more intelligent then they are. It's bullshit with a not quite sane agenda group being it's proponents.
Just because the stupid end of society can't deal with grey doesn't mean the rest of us can't.
Well, aren't we just the assuming one. I call prejudice, assumption, and bigotry on you. You dear sir, are indeed a bigot.
Social/cultural constructs are real, and we don't have to listen to your silly definitions.
Exactly. We don't have to listen to yours either. And can you quote back to me exactly where I said they were not real in the first place?
I find as long as a person isn't engaging in sex with a minor, I'm fine with wherever they want to dip their wick. I'm fine if they want to enter the state of marriage, and enjoy the rights and responsibilities of that state. Awesome. Finding love is better than finding hatred.

Which is exactly why I say it is pointless. Explain if you will, the difference between a Transsexual male and a transsexual man. And is it worth getting offended if you identify as a trans male and someone assumes your gender is transgender male? Must be if there is an official separate designation.
The list shows that whatever you feel like calling yourself is an acceptable gender, therefore, it follows that the term gender has no meaning. The likewise silly term some people use as identifying as a " Blackhawk Helicopter". Well how would you deny that?
You have male, female, and indeterminate, if you feel the need. And the hijacking of gender into sexual or non-sexual preference needs shelved under "none of your damn business."
Now on to Social/Cultural. My background is Hungarian/Ukrainian/Italian/Scotch-Irish. My Mother was Italian, and My Father was Hungarian in the latest generation, with the Ukrainian one generation back.
So am I blessed to have so many cultures to pick and choose from, or do I have to pick one and stay within it so I am not guilty of cultural appropriation? I can tell you that you would have been mortally offended, because we enjoyed aspects of every culture that was part of our past. Except Scotch Irish - I'm not certain how that was neglected.
All of these things exist - I'll thank you for not putting words into what I write - that's rather offensive, you know.
We know that by the scientific definition of race the human species has no races, but we also know the historical context of what groups the word "race" in the human context has defined and what physical characteristics went into that, and we can use it.
And you could line up people by skin pigmentation/race from lightest to darkest, and no one, not even the most discriminating racist could tell the dividing line. I seldom use the "race descriptive anyhow, because you and your ilk spend a lot of time changing the word and getting offended if someone uses the wrong term, It doesn't turn you into a racist to use the term African-American. Yet everyone knows what you are talking about.
Even then, it can be an issue. On NPR I was listening to a newswoman interviewing a woman from Germany that also happened to be from an African nation, and also happened to have skin pigmentation typical of a person from that nation. So th
Linus really has no sense of security. He'll use whatever is expedient over what's wise. It's a shame really.
How about describing the attack vector?
The attack vector is straight out of OP's fuzzy behind.
It's like its possible, for the most unlikely possible way you'd ever want to infect a computer. I'm more worried about getting hit by a meteor. Which is to say, not at all.
This attack required over 9,223,372,036,854,775,808 SHA1 computations. This took the equivalent processing power as 6,500 years of single-CPU computations and 110 years of single-GPU computations.
So, Step 1: Get a super-computer... or rent a fuck-tonne of capacity at Amazon EC2...
Yeah, and don't forget that the (millions) of different hashed programs with the malevolent code will also need to replace the good copy. And compil And install
Oy, such a lot of effort. And yup, there is a non-zero chance of this happening to me. Don't think I'll worry much though.
I have the right to drink beer! Now those Pabst Blue Ribbon drinkers - they're the sickos. Would you want your children taught by someone that drinks PBR?
Only if your definition of race comes from the 19th century, which in itself is a little racist. These days race is a social or cultural construct, in which case this is quite clearly racism.
And as we increasingly expand simple concepts like race or gender, it merely dilutes them to the point of pointlessness.
It means that members of a club are a race. Members of a political party are a race. Rednecks are a race Fraternity members are a race. Liberals are a race. Conservatives are a race.
I use ethnicity for the most part just because of the silly destruction of the term race. But I harbor no illusions that the wordsmits won't screw that up as well.
And I identify my gender as a Lamborghini Countach. Which makes my race as Gearhead.
Thanks for proving my point in my original post about ignorant fools with no clue about security.
Oh do go on. I feed on your ranting.
Newsflash: claims only need supporting if there's no way for 3rd parties to independently verify them. But here, especially for dumb special needs kids like you who can't use a search engine:
With morons like you people using linux now its no surprising exploits are increasing. Check the chrome_sandbox binary owner and setuid bit (know what that is? No? Look it up) then buy yourself a ticket on the cluetrain you clueless gimp.
So the chrome_sandbox binary being owned by root and having the setuid bit set is an "extraordinary claim" is it snowflake? No, its a fact. I don't need to cite anything. 5 seconds with google will tell you everything you need to know and if you're too bone idle to bother then thats your problem, not mine.
You're not supposed to drink espresso like it was cappuccino. But if you want to make claims and then not support them at the same time as you call anyone who disagrees with you morons, well, I think you might be better suited for Youtube comments. Edumacate peeps.

I seldom use the "race descriptive anyhow, because you and your ilk spend a lot of time changing the word and getting offended if someone uses the wrong term, It doesn't turn you into a racist to use the term African-American. Yet everyone knows what you are talking about.
Even then, it can be an issue. On NPR I was listening to a newswoman interviewing a woman from Germany that also happened to be from an African nation, and also happened to have skin pigmentation typical of a person from that nation. So th
Linus really has no sense of security. He'll use whatever is expedient over what's wise. It's a shame really.
How about describing the attack vector?
The attack vector is straight out of OP's fuzzy behind.
It's like its possible, for the most unlikely possible way you'd ever want to infect a computer. I'm more worried about getting hit by a meteor. Which is to say, not at all.
This attack required over 9,223,372,036,854,775,808 SHA1 computations. This took the equivalent processing power as 6,500 years of single-CPU computations and 110 years of single-GPU computations.
So, Step 1: Get a super-computer ... or rent a fuck-tonne of capacity at Amazon EC2 ...
Yeah, and don't forget that the (millions) of different hashed programs with the malevolent code will also need to replace the good copy. And compil And install
Oy, such a lot of effort. And yup, there is a non-zero chance of this happening to me. Don't think I'll worry much though.
we got a million races based on beer preference.
Go home, beer drinker
I have the right to drink beer! Now those Pabst Blue Ribbon drinkers - they're the sickos. Would you want your children taught by someone that drinks PBR?
Dude... people who like warm beer aren't just another race... they're another species. Aliens trying (and failing) to fit in.
I like Tequila too. I might be trans-beerqueer.

Most native american were nomadic, nomads don't have countries nor immigration laws.
Worst

Ever.
Though I guess you are trying to say that the amerinds who were not nomadic actually are the rightful settlers. Odd.
I don't blame anyone but the kook who did this. Anyone defending or blaming is gravitating toward kookdom themselves.
I agree with you. People say a lot of stupid things when they are drunk. But let's not let any opportunity to blame Trump go to waste, right?
And Leftists wonder why they are getting tuned out.
Fortunately those on the right don't do any of that crap.
Only if your definition of race comes from the 19th century, which in itself is a little racist. These days race is a social or cultural construct, in which case this is quite clearly racism.
And as we increasingly expand simple concepts like race or gender, it merely dilutes them to the point of pointlessness.
It means that members of a club are a race. Members of a political party are a race. Rednecks are a race Fraternity members are a race. Liberals are a race. Conservatives are a race.
I use ethnicity for the most part just because of the silly destruction of the term race. But I harbor no illusions that the wordsmits won't screw that up as well.
And I identify my gender as a Lamborghini Countach. Which makes my race as Gearhead.
a class or kind of people unified by shared interests, habits, or characteristics
So WoW players, cat fanciers and gun enthusiasts are races now? Not sure that will fly with the UNHRC...
So now along with 5000 Genders, we got a million races based on beer preference.
Thanks for proving my point in my original post about ignorant fools with no clue about security.
Oh do go on. I feed on your ranting.
Newsflash: claims only need supporting if there's no way for 3rd parties to independently verify them. But here, especially for dumb special needs kids like you who can't use a search engine:

Okay, it has been proven conclusively. You, our good Viol8, could have chosen to be anything you want, and for some reason you chose to be an asshole.
Because in the end, it doesn't matter whether you are right or wrong.
But please, do rant on. It's most entertaining, and might even do you some good to release all that pent up anger. Thanks for the Lulz.
With morons like you people using linux now its no surprising exploits are increasing. Check the chrome_sandbox binary owner and setuid bit (know what that is? No? Look it up) then buy yourself a ticket on the cluetrain you clueless gimp.
Y so SRS?
So the chrome_sandbox binary being owned by root and having the setuid bit set is an "extraordinary claim" is it snowflake? No, its a fact. I don't need to cite anything. 5 seconds with google will tell you everything you need to know and if you're too bone idle to bother then thats your problem, not mine.
You're not supposed to drink espresso like it was cappuccino. But if you want to make claims and then not support them at the same time as you call anyone who disagrees with you morons, well, I think you might be better suited for Youtube comments. Edumacate peeps.
Stupid marketing ploy. As a video engineer all I can do is shake my head at the stupidity.
This is Television, and this is America.Our specialty is making stupid people and things famous.
