In the 26 years I have had email and 12+ years I have had a smartphone I have never, EVER sent or received an email with my social security number in it.
Yes, you get a rock star treatment with empty promises and end up owing the record company. Do some research and find out how Record companies screw artists badly each and every time,
I used to upset my C64 friends... The CoCo's casette deck would load a program FASTER than the C64 Floppy drive. C64 was cool, but the CoCo was the real hackers computer. I had 4 banks of ram that I could easy switch to, and with the completely exposed Address and data bus it was brain dead easy to interface the computer to things in the world. I had built a XY plotter that interfaced to the cartridge bus and even built my own eeprom cartridge that would take advantage of the paged ram I added.
In the USA they hire morons and idiots to work for thew TSA. none of them have any Law enforcement background and are nothing more than minimum wage private store cops that have been given far more power than they should have.
Not it wont happen. a "warp engine" can not be made by some guys in their garage. it will take experiments on the billion dollar and trillion dollar scales to even hope to come up with anything that can do a significant % of C.
You watch far to many movies, Movies are not reality. Bill gates will not dump all of his wealth into ONE experiment.
Is it still smeared all over with Advertisements? It's the one reason I left the Roku for the apple TV. Roku was great until they got greedy and started slathering the thing in adverts.
I already have a neck restraint that inflates if I come off the bike rapidly. I have seen the other jackets like that but none in real tests They need to do crash tests on motorcycle racers before I drop $1100 for a jacket.
Which is why I have 145DB of air horns on my bike. I have actually scared a woman swerving into my lane so badly that her cellphone went out the window. I smiled for the rest of the day.
Problem is "loud pipes" are a wimply little girl solution as they are only 102db and behind the bike and are designed more for "look at me! look at me!" attention whores and are useless for safety. but airhorns mounted up by the headlight that will scare someone inside a BMW with the windows rolled up is a fantastic solution.
"much CHEAPER to shift IT infrastructure operations to service providers"
It's not about easier. It's trading control, stability, and uptime for Lower IT operation costs. Executives dont care about safety of data, stability, uptime or control. All they care about is how good does the next quarter look to the board. Who cares if the company tanks in 5 years, Next quarter is all that is important.
I would LOVE for them to figure out a better foam for armor for us motorcyclists. Right now we have standard polymer foams in our armor, but I would love some effective stuff that is thinner fill in the non impact points for extra protection. Right now I have thick CE rated foam armor in impact locations that also has kevlar on the outside, but I would love to have a reactive foam for a backboard that is flexible normally but solidifies into a backboard when the texting bimbo in the minivan runs me off the road and I come off the bike.
Current motorcycle armor is effective, but it could be better.
Because dealing with the drecks of society waiting in the line at the "customer service" counter is just plain old gross. Honestly, a 500 pound woman in yoga pants that smells like parmesan cheese from 10 feet away is not something you want to wait behind.
Morrow Project is pretty much right on schedule. All of those that paid for the pre-release PDF got it this week. and the Pre-release books are going out the door in the next 2 weeks.
Slashdot Mirror
That is 100% false. Any "digital Forensics" person claiming that is a big far liar that has no clue at all to how it works or how even computers work.
If someone you know told you that, you need to have them show you proof.
"They may actually have my SIN, as provided by me in person"
Hello fellow shadowrunner... is that a Corporate SIN or is it your fake SIN for your missions?

This fear is a Capitol F in FUD.
It was also a iphone 3, the 3G and newer all solved this problem. The Article is horribly out of date.
How girly... I use a 50BMG round and a binary explosive behind it.

Musicians are not the smartest business men.
I take it as buy mp3's and then share them far and wide to everyone you can.
They cant, They utterly broke the theming system in slashcode years ago in their attempt to "clean it up".
OMG Ponies will never ever return.
Only for the n00bs. I was programming a base 99/4a in assembler, what was your excuse?

So you consider a Virus scanner a "security suite"?
Let me guess you are a upper level manager or an executive of some type.

Problem is War is more profitable and more desirable to human kind. We prefer to kill each other in the name of god, peace, and love.

Mount two of these on your motorcycle and take back your lane. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QLCB2nuVqj4
Yes I have, problem is the police refuse to pull over all minivans and SUV's.
Editors? You haven't been on slashdot very long. They have NEVER had editors.

It "just works" if you have 3d graphics hardware. It's useless on a toughbook. Unity is an epic failure that it requires a 3d acellerated video card.
