Most actors and actresses owe their talent to the director of a movie ( exceptionals actors are naturally good in every movie regardless the director - that's a few ). Natalie Portman was indeed excellent in Black Swan, Leon and Closer.
[encryption] has become perhaps the biggest problem for the police (...)
He is right. Eavesdropping everyone everywhere in all possible ways without any ethical limit made everyone aware of - the privacy intrusion risks posed by non encrypted communication - the privacy intrusion risks posed by weakly encrypted communication - the privacy intrusion risks depending on the communication media being utilized.
Yes, why stop at fucking up a company...when you can fuck up the world?
Provided that most political figures do not have a strong background in the industry, why would her (failed) experience be a disadvantage, in comparison?
Then they try the wrong way. Incompetence is only noticed by whom may have the necessary knowledge. That's just a few voters. Not enough to get things changed.
We already have a pretty good idea of what happened to the Germanwings flight even with 1 damaged black box.
Indeed. Every day the poor guy has a new condition: he was depressed, had vision problems, was a narcissist,... So he was also probably deaf, and didn't hear the captain knocking at the door - which he locked by moving the button to the opposite direction, being also dyslexic. This in addition to some orientation problems, making him think he was already at Dusseldorf airport (his internal clock being also broke).
Why spend so much money trying to save soldier's lives, when their very job and purpose is killing other soldiers ?
Their job is not to be killed and kill as much as possible of the enemy. As it's been seen from the last wars, fighting against a diminished army makes it easier to win the war.
Are you saying the civil service is bad and incompetent in the UK? I'm afraid it's the case in most European countries. This is a good test actually: do you disapprove their slowness, incompetence and laziness (to name a few)? If 'yes', then 1) you're normal 2) you're (probably) competent and 3) don't work there.
How many smaller hotels, shop and other wifi APs bothered to change the default admin password? A lot did not. So, you may need a user password initially (as a customer), but then the setup page is usually at http://router/ where the router model and version are commonly displayed. A quick search on the Internet and you may try the default root/admin password which is quite likely to work. Then you may inject your own DNS servers, and voilà. Not mentioning how you can also (even more) easily impersonate any of the no-password SSID that people know well (the phone/mac/pc will choose the highest Db one when both are available), and again redefine some DNS entries, add some filtering etc...
So this hotels security hole is maybe important - but the whole wifi/routers security concept is pretty much flawed in the first place (due to people negligence and incompetence, to routers manufacturers who want to provide an "easy setup" router, to other many entities keen on providing a free wifi access with no security at all etc...).
Because you have visual impairment. 1) the post is not modded at all insightful 2) it says "one of the first"... and referring to the lengthy design - way before its release - of the A320 family (wikipedia), it was decided early in the process to think of removing one position in the cockpit: 3-1 = 2.
Fast forward a few years. Cabin attendant takes the crash axe from behind the copilot's seat and kills him with it.
Yes but what is the likeness of that? Two people including the cabin attendant having no clue about the commands - vs - one person secured alone in the cockpit. I'd say the latter is more likely to act erratically.
Slashdot Mirror
it was a big thing half a century ago. Now, much of the general public probably doesn't know what "Hindenburg" is
Don't worry, most of /. readers were in college when the Hindenburg caught fire.
What's the point of showing you're clever and sniff hoax, then post as an AC?
1) Helium leak
2) (Fast) Descent
3) Landing / crash
As much as I hate Windows 8.1, one thing they have done right is greatly reduced the memory load.
So what's the problem. If something needs 8 GB you just put 8 GB of ram in to that thing.

Should that be modded "+1 Informative" or "-1 Spoiler"?

You've seen what the government tries to do.

Then they'd obviously never been to Paris.
You obviously live in the 9 3 so what do you know about Paris?
They're desperately needed by the whole slashdot community.

Usually when a post contains "my friend" it's likely to be an AC's post. Again, qED.
Some actual useful comments might be nice.
Well, when the function is named calculate_crc32()...

How is this modded insightful?

They applied that patch a while ago already. But they also forgot the tailing ';' and the patch could not be accepted.
Could the xkcd guy renew his cartoons from time to time? (we've seen this one about 123456 times)
"123457" has always been a fine deceptive password
'This "think of X" makes me sick'
At first I read 'This "think os X" makes me sick'
They really need to buy that 45 degrees landing app-in-purchase feature.

9/11 is a good example of what people can do / want to do
