  1. Re:so, not a hole on Wi-Fi WPA2 Vulnerability Found · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Am I the only who thought that WPA didn't protected against what this "attack" is doing? I'm not convinced either that this is a real vulnerability.

    I don't see how is this would fix anything. This looks more like a jerk reaction... It's too difficult to get wireless security right so let's give up and use cables instead.

    Counterespionage. Maybe not from her position... but she may have detected CIA spies within Microsoft that are in that position. After all, Russians also use Windows.

  5. Re:why do the russians need to spy on microsoft? on Deported Russian (Spy?) Worked At Microsoft · · Score: 1

    I think the Russians may be interested on how much Microsoft is vulnerable to USA spies. Having access to the source code doesn't guarantee that the final builds are not modified with NSA rootkits.

    Not conclusive to you.... this report shows that the weak part of a car is who is behind the wheel. This case will be important when autonomous cars will be ready to be sold to the public. Who do you prefer to be doing driving choices, the normal people that can mistake the throttle with the brake or phd programmers through their software?

    Residential refrigeration IS a rich only thing if you look at the entire world instead of just the US. Especially whole-house cooling in the summer seems like a luxury to me .

    Well, I was going to say that with the Declaration, Jefferson DID change subjects into citizens, and I'm not talking about word replacement.

    I'm calling BS on this. Fuell cell is not an energy source and all other numbers seem that are off and hand-made to make alternatives look better.

  15. Re:Why so discriminating? on Google To Add Pay To Cover a Tax For Gays · · Score: 1

    The argument that a extending rights such as marriage to gay couples somehow lessens the social value of marriage is ridiculous.

    Are you sure? If gay couples can get tax benefits, why not single males or women? Why do they deserve tax breaks and singles no? I think the logical next step is extending the tax benefits to everyone and then, straight couples will no longer be special.

    I'm not against that, in fact I'm against tax benefits to marriages, but in either direction the end result will be the same: everyone will be equal.

  22. Re:Poor Planning on Foxconn May Close Factories In China · · Score: 1

    First part about the labor laws, seems like a valid complaint. But the second part, about 'fair share of the profits'. Where does that come from? As an employee, you are getting paid for the work you are doing not any profit that is made. If you want to get a share of the profits, you need to be a share holder. Some companies do offer 'profit-sharing', but that definitely not the norm.

    I think you don't understand. What he means is not that employes should have to earn automatically a certain percentage of profits, but that their wages should have some relation to the profits they are generating. In an ideal capitalist economy, each person should gain according to the added value they generate. If the factory profits are much above what the workers earn, it's probable that something is very wrong, and that something may be the causes of the suicides.

    The sociopaths and other determined criminals will slip through the cracks. If you were looking forward to seeing 72 virgins or having the opportunity to stick it to your arch-enemy, would you not greet them with genuine smiles and cheer in anticipation?

    Actually, it doesn't work that way. Humans have a strong self-preservation instinct, and suicide bombers aren't in a normal mind state before striking. The Israeli El-Al airline uses a method similar to this, and it has never been victim of an attack. Their method is better, as it involves speaking with all passengers, but that may not be practical with big airlines.
