Think all the autocomplete addons for unix shells.
Or even just a bit of work on top of powershell, I don't know if something Something like posh ( http://http//poshconsole.codeplex.com/ ) implements autocompletes like that, but it wouldn't be hard to do in powershell since a well written cmdlet will expose strongly typed inputs which would allow you to use a fancy widget for input without any issues.
This can simply be solved with insurance, if you just make the person in the car responsible then on the off chance that they are worse than a person (they won't be) then the premiums for having this luxury in your car will be skyhigh but as long as it is legal then people will purchase it.
Alternatively they are much safer (or easier to prove the meatbag in the other car was at fault) and your insurance premiums go down, probably even a bonus if you provide logs reporting a percentage of kilometers under machine control. Or excess reduction if autopilot was enabled at the time of crash!
We already have a market based mechanism to sort this out in place, it just needs to be added to the actuarial tables which will take a couple of years of early adopters paying higher premiums.
apart from crunching the ip addresses, seeing a lot of requests from geographically diverse locations on the same ID would throw up a pretty big red flag.
Over 50 years on the x axis and the minimum values have not been below the previous maximums since 1990.
Just because 1 degree doesn't sound like much to you doesn't mean it isn't significant to weather patterns. That graph can be taken out a lot further into the past if you include the geological record into it, and the uptick looks much more significant when you see how steady the temperature has been for the last 1000 years.
How about never trust a cold caller? What does the race have ANYTHING to do with it. A cold caller wants your money and doesn't know you from a bar of soap.
That's what I did for my dad (and upgraded him from XP to 7 at the same time) when he fell for the scam a while back. Luckily he wasn't out any money because the company's accounts got shut down before his payment was processed.
Even if it wasn't necessary it certainly drove home the "Never listen to cold callers" lesson when he had his work laptop offline for a couple of days.
You should be salting each password with a unique salt - and storing the salt with the hash!
The reason for salting the password is to invalidate rainbow tables by effectively making the hashing function unique for each password.
Yes it's a problem for an attacker to get your hashes, but if they do you have made sure they have to break each and every password separately rather than the whole lot at once. Or even worse having precomputed MD5 tables being able to break them immediately.
Not only did they combine the presentation and application layers from the OSI model they completely misunderstand WHY that the transport layer is less diverse in number of protocols.
They propose that we should create new transport protocols that do not overlap with existing ones.... The reason we only have a handful of them is because of the fact that there are not many ways to differentiate a transport protocol.
Optus don't own any POTS copper, telstra own 100% of that.
They own a HFC cable network that was overbuilt by telstra's own HFC cable in almost every place they rolled it out - so most of australia has no cable, and those that do have 2 networks to choose from.
They didn't 'ban' Mortal Kombat either. It was refused classification, meaning that Australian retailers can't ~sell~ it. Merely possessing a copy isn't an issue.
Depends on what state you live in.
WA and i think QLD have laws on their books that *criminalises* possession of RC material.
Seriously? Why did they need to write printer drivers.
If they had just had the forethought to BUY printers that had working linux drivers, it wouldn't have been an issue. Most enterprise level printers have a decent postscript driver that operates in a unix environment just fine.
Over the last 5 years I have not been in an office that didn't have a scanner that had the ability to email scans to me directly from the machine - no driver needed for that.
A gram is not the mass of 1 cubic centimeter of water. It is 1/1000 of the weight of that lump of metal in france!
There are a ton of posts above arguing over that, and you can't use that to define mass because it is affected by pressure. Pressure has a mass component so it ultimately becomes circular.
I like how the article is written in a condescending tone telling you about "hacker myths" and so on, then pulls out the "data can be recovered after being overwritten many times" myth as a fact.
Just wait for someone to figure out how to run this code at a decent speed on some affordable FPGA dongle that can then be sold unprogrammed with a hdmi-in and hdmi-out for stripping the HDCP encryption.
It will be welcomed by anyone with a hdtv that doesn't play well with hdcp sources, or doesn't support HDCP at all.

You forget that taking moisture out of the air will reduce the partial pressure and more evaporation will occur.
By the time this "dry" air makes it across an ocean it will once again be laden with water.
Mod parent up!

I think he meant access to the root certificate STORE on the phone. You just install your own trusted root key and MITM yourself for fun and profit!

When was the last time you tried to edit wikipedia?
It's pretty much read-only at this point.
Petrol car has 400km range? What happens if it's all hilly?
The petrol car doesn't even get to recover lost power through regenerative braking!!!
The energy expended to get a car from point A to point B does not change just because the drivetrain is electric.

And personal photovoltaic setups cost (or at least once did) $10k+ per home, capital costs don't have to be made back in a month you know.
It doesn't have to be plain-text, they are just saying that it must be stored in a way that allows the plaintext to be provided on request.
I'm pretty sure AD allows you to store passwords in reversible encryption rather than hashes if you so chose.
I would think about it but I haven't been given mode points in what seems like forever, did the rules for getting them change?

there really needs to be a way to automatically report adver-spam without mod points.
All of the browsers you mention likely have user bases that equate to rounding errors in these stats.
3) blatant lie.

Does popsci redirect to a regional version of the site? If so that would cause the 404, I can't load the article because of this.
