Well, sonny, we have mice, we have a keyboard (that's where I put the truck keys), and after a big BBQ you better believe that there's some backup inna bathroom, so don't gimme that lip!
Pretty much this. Even though the days are over when a bunch of flowers on Valentine's Day and a coverall from the local flower shop opened every security door, A UPS uniform and an unwieldy box did still work a few years back. Plus such boxes are great for getting shit out of a building again, too.
Funny enough, it's the simple things that work best. Look like you belong there and you're in. A cleaning-crew outfit and a cleaning cart open more doors than any sophisticated door hack tool ever could.
And NO security guard looks into a cleaning cart that is buzzing with flies!
Or like an ex-boss of mine (never ever, of course) said about his IT security people: What I care about is whether they have a police record. If they can't keep their fingers at bay, at least they should be good enough to not get caught and smart enough to keep their mouth shut.
People willing to wait one day won't mind waiting 4 more. Those that really, really, really want the game preorder it or buy it right when it becomes available in the odd case that you cannot preorder it.
With the game you mention, you can also see that half the owners bought it at release (200k) with another 200k being sold in the first week and another 50k units sold over the course of the next 2 weeks.
If DRM had any influence in sales, we'd see most of the sales happen on day 1 and 2, before the protection is broken, with sales pretty much dropping by about 90% due to people copying the game.
now if it's for a nice relaxing vacation on some remote place just enjoying the fresh air and sitting in a tent, i doubt VR will replace that XD.
Well, sitting on a virtual beach, putting your feet into the water and letting the waves lap at them while actually you sit on your couch with your feet in a footbath... sure, it ain't the same but it's something you can have right here, right now, for cheap and whenever you feel like it.
I can't take the software and run it on myself. I also don't gain anything from recording what is being played. I need to get the computer to run the software the way I want it to run rather than how its maker wanted it to run.
Let's see... boring, tedious, about as educational as watching the wall paint dry... if they now somehow first add a bus ride that makes you throw up, they're pretty much already on par with a real field trip.
And that should be easy in VR, most VR games already pull that off without even trying.

In other words, those 1000 per student will be the cherry on top of the expense sundae?

And why the heck would law makers create competition for themselves? We want low wages for those that we want to employ, not for the jobs that we do!
How's the cost of living better in Arkansas if you can get way more roadkill in Cali?
Spoiled brat, I bet you want that fancy meat from some posh Costco, amirite?
There is this newfangled thing called VPN. Try it some time, it's really amazing.
Username AND password
Duh.
The TSA, perhaps...

Then the security issue is in not sensibly shutting sensitive parts of their IT infrastructure off from public access.
Only the ones that don't get caught.

Considering how smart the people running schools are, the "got caught" part is the only one that really surprised me.
If anything, your parties are white and beige.
Or black and anthracite, whichever you prefer.
Wait, wait... the democrats are a LIBERAL party in your opinion?
Dude, never comes to Europe. Our parties would only confuse you.
Could you rephrase that into a car analogy so us non-basement dwellers could understand?
Of course, emotional scars DO count.
Believe me, when an elephant steps on your foot, you won't care whether or what you see.
Who hasn't taped over the cam on his laptop?

Bob is the machine running the software.

No, but it's more likely to happen...
TBE?
Fuck yes. By definition.

Mostly 'cause they want to sell that data. If it could be taken freely, who'd throw money at them?
They're just protecting their assets.
Well, if you run your network like a college campus, you probably wouldn't know if you're being hacked.
So ... let's put it that way, when you're blind, you can't see the elephant standing in front of you as long as he doesn't step on your foot.
