My FreeBSD jails have read-only filesystems with specific folders (for user applications, log files and user files) mounted as individual writable nullfs (like Linux loop) mounts at the host level. It can be done, you just have to DO it.
That would open a can of worms so large it would be impossible to fundraise for anything. Any fundraiser put on the internet be it for disaster relief or "if you like my program, please donate $5" would have to file paperwork with every fucking country in the world. Please do not let this create such a precedent.
From what I understand, cars have multiple CAN networks, all isolated from each other. There is at *least* 3 in most modern cars. One for infotainment (cars stereos and heating/fan control), 1 for basic control diagnostics (that's the one under the dashboard), and one for the engine (this one is usually a P.I.T.A. to get into as they don't leave open ports plug into). If they've managed to get into the engine CAN through one of the more accessible CAN's, then they've done one hell of a job!
Ouch, I think I hit a nerve there. It sounds like you are talking about the concept of advertising whereas I am talking about the current state of advertising. Of course there are exceptions to the rules and some (usually very small businesses) are more honest than others. I don't think you could possibly truly believe advertising is being used the way you described it.
The kinect does not see color at all. It projects an IR point field and uses an IR camera to determine the distance of each point (via parallax) and creates a 3d mesh. You could paint your face purple and it wouldn't care in the slightest.
Advertising is a way to let people who may be interested in purchasing your product or using your service that you exist, nothing more, nothing less.
Bullshit. They are about stretching the truth to the point where a lawyer can't tell if your lying through your teeth to try to make your piece of crap look better than someone else's piece of crap while at the same time making damn sure you realize you simply cannot live without it.
These are not your everyday run of the mill business hard drives. These are drives that other countries would invest significant resources to read. This could include malicious firmwares that detect wipes and "pretend" to be empty. Firmware infection is starting to rise and governments are realizing that "nuke it from orbit" is in fact the only way to be sure.
My college switched credit card handlers and now charges 2% extra if you pay your tuition by credit card. Needless to say, most students VERY quickly switched to cash or money transfer. 2% adds up when paying multiple thousand dollars at once!
To their credit, they did a significant amount of modeling and testing to see if it was enough to account for what the snakes are capable of. Unfortunately the article completely fails to grasp the actual results of the study. They found that while the shape does significantly help, they were unable to reproduce the magnitude of the snakes results and determined that there is something else that we haven't yet found. In other words, the title should have been "Flying snake mystery solution deepens".
My old N900 (run over by a car) was a WAY better hacking device but definitely fell short in the "phone" department. It always felt like a hacking device with a phone barely bolted on. I definitely miss it, but my new N9 is an infinitely better "phone" with 90% of the hacking stuff still in place. I actually prefer my N9's interface to anything Apple or Android have put out. The whole "there are only 3 screens and they all have a single purpose" design with the combined notification feed is absolutely amazingly simple and easy to use.
Strictly as a phone, sure, it's a bit clunky. What I loved was that I could run pretty much *anything* on it. The default repositories had everything from bejewelled, ring-tones and productivity tools to lighttpd, openssh (client AND server), openvpn and even a bittorrent client. I remember writing a fractal generator for one of my college classes (big multiprocessing assignment with IPC and everything) in SDL. I actually got it to run on the phone (using the chroot in the repository). It had python (by default) and a ridiculous amount of tools I have never seen on any phone since. Hell I even ran GIMP and OpenOffice on it (slow, but functional).
Let's see, using key-only ssh access to a home server versus one of the many cloud systems that have dozens of attack vectors (webdav, ftp, http(s), etc) enabled. Personally, I like having control of which services have access to my data (ex: turn ftp 100% OFF, disable ssh password authentication), how often fixes are applied and brute-force prevention/monitoring. Not to mention that I don't have to worry about somebody else's account hosted at the same data centre as mine causing an FBI red flag and having the entire data centre confiscated.
First of all, we shouldn't have to rely on offsite hosting, we should be able to do this ourselves. Second of all, some of us like to keep control of our files ourselves, particularly when it comes to banking files, personal photos, tax forms, etc. Third of all, syncing with services like Google Drive can be a P.I.T.A. to set up and can be very disruptive when these services are modified or closed down.
If we had proper (bi-directional) home internet connections we wouldn't need large storage devices with us and could simply remotely access our files from home whenever we want to listen to music or transfer a report we've been working on for work/school/etc.
As much as I love owncloud I've found the calendar to be buggy when it comes to repeating events. Sometimes my weekly events will suddenly be a day later on 1 week. I haven't checked if it's only in the interface or if it affects the iCal interface, but it's something to watch out for (and test). Note: I have not had any issues with one-off events.
Maybe a few years ago. I just did a quick google check and everything seems to point to around 1.2 to 1.3MB. On a 1mb/s connection, that's about 10 seconds to load a webpage. I'm sure popular websites like Facebook and Twitter (with large images and photo galleries) are significantly higher.
You also need to keep in mind all of the things we currently cannot do because of these restrictions. I'm a scout leader and often take lots of photos at our meetings and outtings. For privacy reasons we aren't comfortable posting them on social websites. I would love to be able to put them on my home server and let parents download them directly (possibly with a password or something), but our shit upload speeds (2.5Mb/s is about the max around here) make that VERY difficult. Throw in some videos and the simple act of sharing media with parents has saturated my internet connection to the point where I can't even receive emails.
Even something as simple as uploading a high definition video to youtube can literally take overnight for the vast majority of North Americans.
Coffeescript looks just as bad from a syntactical point of view.
Typescript (from my brief check) does look much better, but I fail to see the usefulness of it. On the client side you now have to hope that Typescript is ensuring that it generates Javascript that works on all versions of all browsers because making per-browser adjustments become very difficult when you add that kind of abstraction layer. On the server side (where you can run just about anything you like) I just don't see the point of using a designed to make Javascript look like another language when you could just use that other language in the first place. The only justification I can see for it (on the server side) is if you have a penchant for some part o fthe Node.js framework or need to convert an existing Node.js with minimal back-end changes. They've literally written a new language so you can use an old language without actually having to use the old language...
Or a red jacket with "fire marshall" on the breast. Very few people have the balls to question a fire marshall, and fewer still would have a job afterwards if they tried.
First of all, it wasn't even "hot" then, it was the equivalent of the no-sql servers today (lots of talk and advertising, few actual professional users). Script kiddies and amateur web developers jumped at it because it was about the only language they knew already anyways. Personally, I wouldn't use javascript for anything if I had the choice.

I think he was referring to a $100 fee to access the online content without having to get cable.

Why would you specify a 10% tolerance? That's about as bad as you can get!
Oh come on, it's obviously that her bus was on time.
Given that the volume can kill a person, it is going to be more like dying room.
The irony, it BURNS!

They could be referring to screen-burn on old CRTs.
Honestly I hadn't thought that far ahead
Gotta love someone who has a bunker full of fish antibiotics but forgets to think ahead...

Not to mention how few of them would want to watch english movies in the first place!
