I had no idea that breathing in sand dust could be carcinogenic. That is legitimately scary.
To be fair, most things you can ingest are better for you than heavy metal poisoning. Wasn't worried about the cyanide in the name, per se, but that non-food/medical grade prussian blue may have some dangerous contaminants created during its production.
Alright - we'll stick with the titanium dioxide, then, which despite getting sprayed all over people's bodies in summer is still a known carcinogen. Oddly enough, it rates lower on the MSDS health risk scale than prussian blue.
It can be reused/reprinted 80 times. It doesn't say it will stay wrinkle/crease free for 80 reuses. And when it does get thrown out, it's full of ferric ferrocyanide, which is fairly toxic.
Any amount of wear on the paper and nobody will want it second-hand. Or, nobody will buy their own paper because it's too expensive. They just won't return the paper back to the convention staff, etc.
I skimmed and skipped over all but the letters/numbers W3C where it showed they were using their platform but were otherwise unaffiliated. I'd edit my post, but this is Slashdot.
They want to replace all native apps with web apps, so they can be involved. They already have your webcam, gamepad, speakers, and microphone. This is just the last important piece for them.
I'm not familiar with much else that Bluetooth is useful for, so I suppose there might exist a format where it does not make sense to restrict details to the driver, but I'm having trouble imagining one.
Non-wifi smart things, like a Fitbit would be one. Anything that exists solely to collect data to then be processed by a remote server would qualify.
By definition (this being a web API), the devices that require this already phone home through whatever app and the remote end of the API can be disabled for your old version anyway. This means Linux support where there would normally be none.
Nobody can figure out how to install the Fitbit app on their PC, but they will go to a web site.
If they had sane defaults—like prompting before discovery of BT devices and the user selecting the device to pair with, only showing the device that was allowed and no blanket ability to discover—then it might not be so bad.
For as long as there have been locks, there have been locksmiths. Unless the CPUs themselves are decrypting the instructions with a private key known only to Intel, it will be possible to decompile/trace. And even then, there will probably still be a way.
I think they're referring to the pirates doing the initial plundering. You have to crack the game before you distribute it - and the people doing so were complaining to the DRM-maker. A bit of a silly thing that still makes me think it's more likely to be legitimate customers complaining about DRM instead. It's not like the pirate says, "I'm a pirate and..."
Isn't posting a link AND the full contents of the page a bit redundant? Also, why not create an account if you're going to use your real name on your web site.
Which is another way of saying that the so-called "abuse" is conducted through activity the children find enjoyable and do voluntary with people they love and trust.
Which is another way of saying Stockholm Syndrome.
Except that they believe that other people's personal liberties should be allowed to trump your own. Whereas most people use government for protecting personal liberties by limiting the effects of others on you. It's really a question of which people are deemed important.

Weird that the MSDS for prussian blue is still pretty scary.

GP only printed it so they could do handwritten notes. Presumably they would be happy with a digital copy.
The difference is that the white portions still have ink and the whole thing can be erased. Otherwise it works the same way, yes.
That will not work with this paper, obviously, or require special markers
It would require a UV light pen.
If you need it longer than 5 days, scanning or photo might be an option.
However, this would probably be the only use case where the paper could likely be re-used more than once or twice.

Or user-replaceable rollers on inkjets, since the real problem is hardening of the rubber.

There's already microphone and webcam APIs that are just as useful to criminals - but both require permission.

It's a W3C draft right now.

They're probably lamenting the lack of unicode support on Slashdot and they were trying for an em-dash, — (—)
Hey, at least he's not promoting ad-blocking with an unblockable ad.

I think you've really misunderstood the meaning of some or most of these words.
Surprisingly, he managed to be up on tech enough to snag is name on the .am TLD.

This is what I was thinking, but the worst aspects of DRM pop up 5-10 years later when trying to run older games on newer systems.

Did you read the article? They performed tests directly on cells in a lab, rather than on patients.
