Yes, Cuba is a very popular vacation destination for Canadians, and while I have not been there myself, the people I know who go there regularly often stock up on flash drives to take along and give out as gifts.
When people breed animals, they are artificially selecting for their own desired traits. When they use antibiotics, they are in effect selecting for antibiotic resistant strains.
You'd think farmers would get the picture as well or better than others.....
The problem they had was giving raw unfinished data to people who were felt entitled to it
The CRU folks have trouble even keeping raw data at all - also so very scientific. Can't afford hard drive space apparently.
I'm also quite capable of reading and understanding what people are saying when they think nobody else will know (especially) without going to an apologist website.
By "hiding data" you mean how scientists were reluctant to give their data to complete strangers that already showed their bias.
Yes. Science is supposed to be an adversarial process. Whining that others may try to disprove your conclusions is decidedly unscientific.
Also please describe what you mean by gaming the system.
“I can’t see either of these papers being in the next IPCC report. Kevin and I will keep them out somehow — even if we have to redefine what the peer-review literature is!”
Some of the numbers are being continuously corrected. They are still correcting numbers from decades ago. Some of them have been corrected so many times it is hard to know when they are, ahem, correct.........
are not normally connected to the internet. Utilities have administrative networks that certainly are though.
Ideally those two networks don't ever touch each other, in practice though there are often some paths from one to the other, even if it is only sneakernet (Stuxnet apparently got onto the Iran nuclear program SCADA system via a USB drive used for transferring updates).
So yes, the hackers probably never got to exploit any such path before they were discovered, but that is almost certainly what they were looking for. It is still a hostile act.
Even with no-script (or especially with it as may be the case), I try to load a page. It partially works, but needs some scripts to work properly. I tell no-script to allow all this page, but then when it reloads it wants even more scripts from more places. Tell no-script OK again, and then when it reloads, it still wants more, or some of them change.
Sometimes takes 3 or 4 tries allowing and reloading just to get pages to render by the time I've approved the 50 other sites they want to load content from.
Generally speaking, I try to avoid websites that go overboard this way, but it is sadly getting to be way too common. Sometimes the no-script list is so long I have to scroll through it.........
You can't buy one now anyway, unless it is used. They are not selling them anymore.
I have a couple (a 1st gen model and a Steel) and I expect them both to work exactly like they do today until the batteries lose their charging capacity.
No, I don't expect new apps. I don't expect hardware support. And if you are using functionality that requires cloud servers I would not expect that to work for long either, but that is far from a requirement. I full expect to be able to keep using them for what I currently do for years yet.
I am sad to see the company disappear, but life goes on. My original Pebble has lasted through several cell phones already....
Slashdot Mirror
Carry on.
Have to agree with the AC here.
The "cloud" is a great place to keep your music and cat videos. If you are keeping sensitive data there, you are an idiot.

Indians are mostly Hindu, not Muslim.
I'm sure the distinction is lost on most Trump supporters.
The First Trophy Wife will surely defend his sexual proclivities.
owns Kathy Byron?
Or do they share..
....you have nothing to fear.
I think it was Joseph Goebbels who said that. Totally someone the USA needs to emulate.
Russia just totally pwned the United States of America.
Ha ha.
So sorry about your war criminals.

Also gaming the peer review system. And hiding data.

no1 cares 4 typesetting AFAIK u r soon 2b alone in that
SMS is an attempt at "what you have", with lots of caveats.
Better than nothing - everyone has a phone. Not many people will buy dongles or tokens.
SecureID is something you have. Your passcode is something you know. This seems like a simpler version for the masses. Good idea.

Seems their protocols are broken then.
I agree some brave person needs to put all the evidence out there.
Maybe they can leak it to Wikileaks.
Oh, wait....
What did those old pushrod Republicans do, about 6K RPM?
Some people do a similar thing with mittens for kids. Tie them together with a string run through the coat sleeves.
I think these Airpods will actually need something like that if they are not to become like pennies or contact lenses.

Yes, that has been my decision for a long time.
Recent events have just made it more emphatic.
