The military walkie talkie I had to use during my military service did not even work properly on a mild sunny autumn evening (or any other weather), so I figure the reason a military walkie talkie costs that much is basically because the military pays that much...
So, by extension most of the inhabitants of countries like the USA or Australia, are losers, because their ancestors moved there because they were starving in wherever country they came from (or send there as criminals)?
I can see the need for some sociology or psychology students to access porn, but only a very few on very specific projects. Methinks some faculty spanking material was the greater concern than student access to "research data" which could have been addressed by granting specific machines a bypass in the firewall configurations.
Methinks the porn blocker was probably overzealous*, and blocked way to much.
* In general, those blockers come in two variations: The overzealous type, which gets in the way of normal usage, or the useless type, that blocks next to nothing.
Well, it is usually on a different (layer 2) network, but usually there is a gateway routing messages between the two. Why? Because the CD player is embedded in the entertainment system, and that system displays information from the engine (e.g. current mileage), or you may be able to configure your engine via the entertainment system (like switching your engine and gearbox to "sport" mode). However, the gateway does not blindy route any message to any network, there is usually a fixed configuration which message should be routed to which network.
Nevertheless, most development in the field is centered around safety, and not focused at security, so I'm not that surprised that vehicular networks are hackable.

Yeah, if your definition of "sell" includes paying other countries to get rid of our surplus wind and solar energy on windy and sunny days, the yes, we "sell" energy.
To understand this, I think we need to make clear the difference between sexuality and pornography. For example, lots of shows show girls in bikinis on the beach, or strippers dancing with a pole - that's pornography.
Your definition of pornography is quite different then my definition. If the girl (or boy, for that matter) is clothed, it is not pornography. As an example for a even stricter definition of pornography, in Germany, for anything to count as pornography, it has at least to show penetration, or depict genitals in a "provoking" manner (e.g. an erect penis, or a slose-up shout of a vagina.)
Yeah, and everyone was blaming it on the earthquake. But it was the moon all along! And he would have gotten away with it, too, if it hadn't been for that meddling kids!
They could use 10/8. This would never be routed to the internet, but would be a syntactically correct IP address (and more compareable to the 555 telephone numbers, which are also usually syntacticaly correct)
she's really very smart. She squirted out that stream of technobabble to cover her exit, went back to her cubicle, cat'd a shell script to track the guy's IP address, opened a random VB file to display in case her boss (who happens to be a big VB fan) walked by, whipped up the GUI with Tcl/Tk, and spent the next 15 minutes looking for a better job.
Actually, "VisualBasic" was probably just product placement. I hope it generated lots of support calls to Redmond.
And you say there are no funny comments on YouTube!
Your car will probably have a lot more then just two busses. It will probably even have ECUs that are conected to more then two busses. However, I'd guess that in theroy the network of ECUs and busses will be fully connected, e.g. most systems report data to the dashboard, so that will be a point where many busses will meet. (Not that this would help taking over the bus or safety relevant systems in any relevant way)
That's simply wrong. Lots of safety relevant systems, like ESP, communicate via CAN (or FlexRey in more modern cars). So, in theory, if you hijacked the whole bus you could pretty easily kill everyone inside the car. In praxis, however, it's not quite that simple. e.g. the bus driver of a FlexRay bus will electrically prevent sending any data outside of your designated timeslot, so you can't override data send by other ECUs. (Not to mention that the only place data from the entertainment system and from safety related systems will meet is probably the dashboard, and that's pretty much a dead end).
Your definition is the definition of NP, not NP complete. NP is the set of all problems that are in NP and NP hard (i.e. all problems in NP can be reduced in polynomial time to a problem in NP-complete). If P=NP, all problems in NP can be reduced in polynomial time to any other problem in NP (because they can be solved in polynomial time)
Not to bust anyone's bubble, but the factoring problem is actually not known to be NP completely and evidence points to the fact that it is no, since if it could be shown to be then this would prove that NP=Co-NP. Similarly, the discrete logarithm problem is also not known to be NP-complete. Therefore, public key cryptosystems should be fine.
TL;DR - No encryption schemes will be broken if it is proved that P=NP.
You got that wrong. If P=NP, then NP=Co-NP, so your public key cryptosystems are broken. (Also, if P=NP, all problems in P are NP complete)
According to the (slightly out-of-date) article, the whole of Europe sends less spam than the US. I'm quite sure there are more computers in Europe than in the US, as the population is more than 60% larger (only counting EU. The spam level in the article is likely about the whole continent, which has about 130% the population of the US), and the developement level is similar.

As the heading of your phone is not equivalent to the heading of your head, that is not sufficient for a good information overlay.

"Slightly more likely" in this case equals "so deep in the margin of error that there is no meaningful distingtion between the votes for each of them"

I'm quite sure there will be a new trial, and this glitch in the matrix will be corrected thoroughly.

There may be few countries that meet all proposals, but there are scores of countries that meet at least one of them.
Apparently it's blamed for the tsunami.

Mod this up, and mod GP -1, plain wrong.
Who gives a fuck if factorization is NP complete or not, that doesn't matter in the slightest.
Nitpick: If P=NP, then factorisation, or any other problem in NP, is NP complete.
Wrong. If P=NP, all problems in NP (including NP complete and Co-NP problems) are solveable in polynomial time.
Not to bust anyone's bubble, but the factoring problem is actually not known to be NP completely and evidence points to the fact that it is no, since if it could be shown to be then this would prove that NP=Co-NP.
