If the social media service (or 3rd party client), when User B shares a link to a page containing the image, automatically adds the image to the post, thus resulting in an inadvertent copyright violation on the user's behalf, should the social media service (or 3rd party client) be held liable,
Hold the social media service liable. Sharing photos should be banned on socialist media sites, since the only purpose of sharing is copyright violation. It's just like torrent sites whose sole purpose is piracy.
The social media service is shielded by the DMCA, provided that they respond to legitimate copyright claims by removing the infringing content.
Good for you, but I'm more than happy to connect my vulnerable TCL to my home network.
And just how confident are you that your home network is some impregnable fortress? Unless you are an anal retentive network security professional I'm dubious you have it locked down tight.
If you've owned someones router sufficiently to get onto their LAN, why would you bother with their TV? There are way richer targets on the average home network.
To quote the article:
To become a victim of a real-world attack, a TV user would need to be using a phone or laptop running on the same WiFi network as the television, and then visit a site or download a mobile app with malicious code.
Yeah, if you can get someone to do that, you've already compromised the device they installed the application on and have full access to their LAN. Why bother futzing with their TV volume: start harvesting passwords from network traffic or trying to exploit other PCs on the LAN.
This looks like it is going after the unsecured API that lets you send YouTube videos from your phone to Rokus on the the same LAN segment. Unless you are hanging your streaming devices out on the public internet with routable IPs and no firewall it's not a huge issue.
I live in a single family home in Boston (Jamaica Plain). Places like JP, Roslindale, Roxbury, Dorchester, Mattapan, and Southie all have plenty of single families. It's not particularly cheap: we bought our current place on the back of the sale of a condo I had 10 years of equity in, but it's doable.
Wait, so what happens when it snows? Or when road salt has turned the entire surface into a featureless write plane? I guess that why most of these driverless pilot programs are in Arizona or California.
Portland is very liberal, but it is also very white. This means you can be loudly racist and mostly get away with it because the people around you, while they might be disgusted, probably won't do anything to you. But if you act like that in a mixed race crowd you are more likely to have someone call you out on it or kick the crap out of you. This doesn't mean the percentage of racists is higher in northern, mostly white cities, or that liberals necessarily trend more racist, it just means racists are emboldened when they look around and see only people who look like them.
An elected government is BY ITS VERY DEFINITION as a government elected by the people for the people supposed to work for me. If it isn't, it loses the very foundation of its claim to power.
Except that government exercises its power via people in the form of elected and appointed officials. People are fallible, and for the most part those officials have ceased to work for the people who elected them and now serve the corporations who got them elected.
25 mbps is for fixed broadband. This 10 mbps limit is for mobile broadband.
Nothing is getting lowered.
Nothing gets lowered except your data cap, and hence the utility of having broadband. No one on mobile uses bandwidth the same way as we use fixed bandwidth, because it is an order of magnitude more expensive. Even mobile plans that are "unlimited" have a soft cap that will see you throttled after a few tens of GB compared with hundreds for a typical cable cap.
You know how a politician can say "Think of the children!" and pass any crap law? You know how a cop can say "I feared for my life!" and walk after shooting a guy?
Well, all a government lawyer has to do is say "It's a matter of national security!" and they get a pass on the 4th Amendment.
Vantablack has to be grown at 400 C in a furnace, while birds manufacture their feathers somewhere in the neighborhood of 40 C. Far more materials are amiable to being subjected to bird temperatures than Vantablack temperatures. Vantablack surfaces also have to be protected from accidental touching or abrasion, something that bird feathers don't have the luxury of.
Overall, I think there is probably still quite a bit we can learn from birds. Also, they're just neat.
If you are plugging the thing in overnight anyway, couldn't you use the wall current to keep the battery warm while charging? The batteries could warm themselves up before operation if it is cold out and the car is not plugged in. My electric snow blower will do this if it detects the batteries are cold when you ask it to start up.
I wouldn't be surprised if even at $850k, the cost of this treatment is less than a lifetime of assistive support for blindness. Hopefully those that qualify for this can get it covered.
Many large cities have people who never own a car and never learn how to drive. Voting is a right of citizenship. Citizenship is not predicated on having a job, a home, a fixed address, or even a birth certificate.
You have a bit to say there. I have heard of damning with faint praise but you are damning with faint lies.
IPhone 6+ Original battery 2915 mAh at manufacture. As you say not over 3000 but close enough, within 3%. After 3-4 years it is at 2500, 86%. I've not checked other phones so all I can quote is mine.
I can tell you my 6s (not +), was 1715mAh new in July, and is sitting at 1600mAh max capacity now. Assuming the battery supplies a nominal 3.5V, it does seem to be a little skimpy to provide only the capacity of roughly 2 AA cells.
From the OP: "ROBOT allows an attacker to obtain the RSA key necessary to decrypt TLS traffic under certain conditions."
As far as I can tell from reading the attack, this is not true. The attack lets you use the server as an oracle, that is, you can exploit the protocol to trick the server into signing arbitrary data with the server's private RSA key. I think this could be leveraged to mount a MITM attack, but it could not be used to recover the private RSA key. If the RSA private key was recoverable from a flaw in the TLS protocol, that would be a much bigger finding.
An individual government mandate without a government-managed exchange like we have now would leave everyone in a risk pool of 1 (or some other tiny number if buying a family plan). You would end up with the old and infirm (you know, the people who actually need insurance) completely priced out of the market.
The only reason insurance is even vaguely attainable outside of employer or union negotiated contracts is because of the government operated exchanges creating larger risk pools for you to join.
This is the current problem with such sites -- that's too expensive. Back when you had to subscribe to newspapers, they didn't cost that much even with the additional expense of printing and distributing physical paper.
Back in my paperboy days (mid 90s), 7-day delivery of the Boston Globe cost something like $5-$7/week, plus you had to tip the paper boy. The Sunday edition alone costed $1.50 in print. $15/mo for the online edition seems fairly reasonable in comparison, especially adjusted for inflation. I think we've just been conditioned to not pay for news over the past 20 years.
The phone companies aren't acting on behalf of the government when they gather the location data: they do that in the normal course of doing business with you. They are cooperating with the government when they surrender this data upon request. This is not much different than an eye witness to a crime voluntarily cooperating with police instead of lawyering up.
I think this data should be protected. I think some sort of covenant should exist between you and those who have custody of intimate data about you such that a warrant is required to obtain this type of information from a third party. However, I think that trying to stretch the definition of government employee to typical industry practice is weak enough that it's likely to fail or backfire.
A "genuine sense of community". If it were genuine, it wouldn't require a mission statement. The genuine community is probably around the corner holding a "spare change" sign.
I guess if you don't mind being liquefied and having your cells induced to revert to stem cells and then growing a new clone human from there, you could consider yourself "immortal".
There's a small number of miners because technology acts as a force multiplier allowing one man to mine much more coal than they could 50 years ago. It's the same environmental costs distributed across an ever smaller labor pool.
The federal government already maintains a national ID database for military personnel, civil servants, and government contractors. It consists of a smart card containing a certificate tied to the USG PKI. The card is unlocked with a PIN and can be used for signing documents or signing/encrypting emails. The documentation requirements are almost exactly the same as for getting a passport (e.g. birth certificate + state ID). These cards are already recognized by most federal agencies, and can be soft authenticated offline just by verifying the certificate chain.
Yes, on linux, Alt+SysRq+ sends signals to the kernal. s flushes all disk caches, u changes all mount points to read-only, b reboots, c dumps core, etc.
Some Windows programs still respond to scroll lock by locking the cursor in place, causing the arrow keys to scroll the window instead.
Break is still occasionally useful when using a terminal emulator.

Pixar also had Inside Out which was fantastic. Wreck It Ralph was also very good, although I don't know how well it did commercially.

Or you can use WebDAV. It's about 5 lines of httpd configuration and you can tie it in to use whatever auth module you are already using.
