And people with enough real life to not have time for facebook. ..
And then there are all those living in poverty who have too much "real life". They are too busy trying to find food and shelter for themselves and their families.
Those people probably aren't good targets for a bank loan, so it appears to be a good thing for the bank if they don't get it.
I've never understood why all other major browsers make such a simple function so complicated.
They don't. You're just an Opera fanboy, so anything Opera does is "glorious perfection"TM, and anything in another browser that's even slightly different than Opera does it is horrendously complicated and unnecessary. Firefox & Internet Explorer: - Right click on tab bar->Reopen closed tab - or - Ctrl-Shift-T. Since Ctrl-T opens a new tab, it makes perfect sense that Ctrl-Shift-T would reopen a closed tab. How is this "so complicated"?
You're still suffering under the delusion that the U.S. are the "good guys"? lol.
In the same period of time, the United States, officially a secular nation but predominantly Christian, attacked....... Afghanistan (2001 to present), Haiti (2010), etc. etc. etc. etc.
So, who is the danger to world peace?"
Errr...the US retaliated against (not attacked) Afghanistan in 2001, due the the fact that the Taliban appeared to be housing/helping the group that attacked and killed a few thousand civilians in the US.
Similarly, the US didn't attack Haiti in 2010. They sent the military in the help in the aid efforts after the earthquake struck just west of Port-au-Prince.
Why didn't you add to your list that the US attacked Antarctica in 2003, when they built the current Amundsen-Scott research base? That would have made about as much sense as some of your listings....
I think that the lesson here might be that if you're not on the very latest release of a Microsoft product, even if what you're running is still supported, you'll be low priority for security patches. Latest release gets patched promptly, but previous major release doesn't.
There is a difficulty of course: cripple the NSA, and you give free and secure communication to all sorts of undesirables. Allow the NSA unchecked, and make people transparent to the Government, (and worse expose them to typically stupid Government dragnet trawling). I'm not sure myself which way we ought to go, but I'm pretty sure that abolishing the NSA isn't one of the sane ones.
The number of people killed by their own abusive governments in the last 100 years is at least an order of magnitude more than the number of people killed by terrorists in the entirety of recorded human history.
I'll take my chances with the terrorists, thank you very much.
Something tells me nobody actually *got* your code. Otherwise, you'd have either been modded into oblivion by NSA spooks, or modded +5 Interesting/Insightful by paranoid cynics.
Any hash, whether it be SWIFFT, VSH, SHA1, SHA256, the piece of crap called MD5, or whatever, is useless by itself. It has to be compared to either another hash, or some...get this...unencrypted data that is then fed through the hashing algorithm. Sure, passwords are hashed. But you don't send a hashed password from your browser. You send the regular password, which is then hashed by the server, and the resulting hash is compared to the stored hash on the server. If they match, you're let in. That means that the unencrypted password is in memory on the server, just as the GP stated.
Now, this may be completely moot, if the hack was simply an SQL injection, or the like, which only allows access to data in a database, but at this point we, and probably even Apple, has no way to guarantee that this is the only method that was used to break into the server(s). Most security vulnerabilities, on the other hand, can be used to obtain access to disk data, and also to potentially install malware, or access memory data. We don't have enough information from Apple to know that this was one of the very few classes of hacks like SQL injection that definitely cannot install malware. I suspect Apple doesn't know, either.
You obviously haven't been out in the country anywhere around where I live. Every house has a street address. Some barns have street addresses. Heck, I've even seen empty fields with street addresses.
Now, you're right, that it doesn't narrow it down anywhere near as much as this, because the lot at 1748 Hillbilly Road might be somewhere around 100 acres, rather than 9 square meters. Get in the center of that lot, though, and you'll probably be within shouting distance of whoever you're trying to find in it, unless it's planting or harvesting season.
So now, instead, you've got to give her the three words, plus the URL of the website, which she will easily fuck up.
3words.....what? What three words? Oh...type into my browser.... ok... www.what.three.words.com I don't get anything. Oh..ok. www.what.3.words.com It's still not working. Grrrr. www.what3.words.com This stupid thing! Just give me your damned latitude and longitude!!!
Then your computer is complete shit. I've run Chrome with 50-75 tabs open, at least, (probably more), and had no problems. Firefox 32 bit, I've currently got about 300 tabs open, and it's slightly slow, but not unworkable, by any means. The worst problem I've found is that it runs out of memory and crashes after several days, because it hits the memory limit for 32 bit programs.
Why shouldn't a quad-core machine be able to do processing intensive tasks and browse the web at the same time? Isn't that what multi-core CPU designs were supposed to be for? I certainly remember them being marketed that way. Now you're telling me I should buy a second machine because the advertising was wrong? That's why people get pissed off at the tech industry. Because the level of bullshit is astronomical.
Slashdot Mirror
Summary says the information was encrypted. How do you know what he was carrying?
And people with enough real life to not have time for facebook. . .

Those people probably aren't good targets for a bank loan, so it appears to be a good thing for the bank if they don't get it.
Damn, where are my mod points?
Facebook sold them all to BoA.....
My browser knows when I close tabs accidentally and not on purpose? Scary...
Your browser doesn't know by itself. It only knows when the NSA tells it.
Whoosh.
I am not kidding, I really, really thought that was going to end with
"... lets me undo reading a Slashdot article."
Now THAT would be the greatest keyboard shortcut ever!
...which rules out 99% of my....cow-orkers,.....
Tell me something:
What is orking, and how do you do it to a cow?
On second thought....I might not want to know the answer to that...... :)

I see...so anyone who disagrees with you must not be intelligent.
That makes you just as bad, if not worse, than the people you're complaining about.
Hypocrite.

You don't get a +5 mod, because you disagree with Apple, therefore, you're wrong.
</sarcasm>
You don't deserve to work in IT, either.
Any hash, whether it be SWIFFT, VSH, SHA1, SHA256, the piece of crap called MD5, or whatever, is useless by itself. It has to be compared to either another hash, or some...get this...unencrypted data that is then fed through the hashing algorithm.

That's probably pretty accurate, wouldn't you say? :)
No, he meant all the people are going to be lining up to complain. Hence, queue.
(Yes, I'm kidding.)
You obviously haven't been out in the country anywhere around where I live.
Every house has a street address. Some barns have street addresses. Heck, I've even seen empty fields with street addresses.

I'm guessing they don't include any words that are NSFW, but I find it amusing that united.states.america isn't a location in this service.
Did you read the GP? Considering that mangled sentence construction and misspellings, I'm not sure English words are easier to remember.
Especially if you're not a native English speaker, which I'm guessing the GP isn't.
And developers.developers.developers is in the middle of the North Atlantic.
So now, instead, you've got to give her the three words, plus the URL of the website, which she will easily fuck up.
3words.....what?
What three words?
Oh...type into my browser....
ok...
www.what.three.words.com
I don't get anything.
Oh..ok.
www.what.3.words.com
It's still not working.
Grrrr.
www.what3.words.com
This stupid thing!
Just give me your damned latitude and longitude!!!
Bleedin' Yanks! Don't ave a bloody clue ow a Yorkshireman speaks!
