Yes, it is. mDNSresponder has had numerous security problems in the past, but Apple has more or less just been playing "whack-a-mole" with the vulnerabilities. Hopefully, this will lead to some real fixes in the underlying code. When I heard about the whole infosec sellout thing, first thing I did was to disable mDNSresponder in the terminal. It's pretty trivial to do, and if you have something that NEEDS UPnP to function, you can always manually install the previous version or whatever.
The article's a little light on details, but explosive failure is pretty rare for hybrid rocket motors such as this, isn't it?
Usually mis-ignition will just cause rapid release of the N2O oxidizer, and designs are such that a clogged nozzle which would actually cause an explosion generally causes a safety valve to open and vent the excess pressure.
Yeah, everything I've seen on hybrid motors says they are non-explosive with a near zero TNT rating.
But let's not try to paint the whole administration as malicious warmongering tyrants when in all reality they're just inept shoot-from-the-hip bureaucrats. But you see, those in the Bush administration have not become wealthy by being just "inept shoot-from-the-hip bureaucrats". They've done that by having oil and defense industry interests. The amount of money a president or vice president makes as his salary from the US government is a small fraction of that which they can make by causing their investments in energy and defense contractors to increase in value.
to let apple be basically a generation ahead in the OS and portable electronics markets?
Kind of lame that this is the best an admitted member of the "anti-Apple DAP crowd" can come up with for an article of nearly pure speculation. Creative and Archos look like they have better iPod killer offerings than Microsoft.
Interesting points, it's always good to hear from someone who actually knows what they're talking about on here.
Do you think that the connectivity problems are feasibly solvable with the seemingly rampant culture of bribery and graft in many of the countries? It seems like there is a huge Chicken/Egg problem with respect to infrastructure and reforms going on.
Yeah, the internet is one of the last things Africa needs.
I'd say that Social, Political, and Agricultural reforms are FAR more important to the average African than the good old WWW.
Africa is living proof that imposition of a foreign structure and hierarchy followed by throwing fists-full of aid money is not enough to improve the lives of a people.
it makes it harder for sickos to do what sickos do. Doubtful. There are so many ways to surf and do whatever anonymously. I guess this just means they need to learn a little bit more about the internet before engaging in illegal acts.
I'm guessing Matasano Security is paying him for this vulnerability.
They're the ones who challenged Joanna Rutkowska about her bluepill (see the "Hi Joanna" quote on the blog), and have had contact with infosec sellout in the past.
I remember from my animal physiology classes seeing experiments about how cats walk. Apparently quite a few of the nerves which control the muscles used for walking can be severed prior to the dorsal root ganglion, and when placed on a treadmill the cats will still walk just fine even though there is no signal going from the brain to the muscles themselves.

Spare me. OpenMoko is an open platform that nobody cares about.
It does look cool, but without an Apple sized hype-machine and good support from cell phone companies and service providers I don't see it taking off.
Isn't that what Mortal Strike or Fury warriors were before they got smacked with the nerf bat?

Wow, that'll take care of business... You see all these advertisements on American TV about being "an Army of one." Well, this is three times better.
And they're ROBOTS.
The activation energy is high, but it can be lowered by use of a catalyst.

Maybe the mars rovers were faked by the same people who did the moon landing.

Dude, quit bogarting all the voting records. Count, count, pass.

"Big In Japan"
I got the style but not the grace
I got the clothes but not the face
I got the bread but not the butter
I got the winda but not the shutter
But I'm big in Japan I'm big in Japan But heh I'm big in Japan
I got the house but not the deed
I got the horn but not the reed
I got the cards but not the luck
I got the wheel but not the truck
But heh I'm big in Japan I'm big in Japan I'm big in Japan
I got the moon I got the cheese I got the whole damn nation
On its knees I got the rooster I got the crow
I got the ebb I got the flow
I got the powder but not the gun
I got the dog but not the bun
I got the clouds but not the sky
I got the stripes but not the tie
But heh I'm big in Japan I'm big in Japan I'm big in Japan
Heh ho they love the way I do it
Heh ho there's really nothing to it
I got the moon I got the cheese
I got the whole damn nation on their knees
I got the rooster I got the crow
I got the ebb I got the flow
I got the sizzle but not the steak
I got the boat but not the lake
I got the sheets but not the bed
I got the jam but not the bread
But heh I'm big in Japan I'm big in Japan I'm big in Japan
I'm big in Japan, I'm big in Japan

Yes and yes.
Close enough, I'm from Kentucky.
Duke runs a lot of summer camps. I know second session of TIP should be running right now, and probably several other camps as well.
They generally use a good chunk of the dorm space, and probably more than a few of them have iPhones.
You see, they were really trying to get Teri Hatcher, but the memo just said "T. Hatcher".
Somebody misread it as Thatcher, and just ran with it.

Sounds unpleasant. Or really, really pleasant.
So you get one story about MS partners bailing over delayed releases in the SW division.
/. for ya. A Windows hatefest followed by a Microsoft Gaming lovefest.
Then the next story is about the confidence in the gaming division.
That's
