[It] can detect JavaScript-based malware on the fly at a very high effectiveness rate
No way the malware authors will adjust the malware once this is relased. Also, what's the false-positive rate? After all, an is_malware() that always returns true has a very high effectiveness rate at detecting malware.
That is, treat this kind of ransomware as any other unexpected data loss. It's similar to disk failure, where you could send it to a data recovery company, and pay at least $120, and still not be guaranteed of recovering it all. Or just back it up, and have it protected from all sorts of corruption, accidental deletion, etc.
Silly, that'll just delay the golden hour. What we need is for the email to be delivered, but for nobody to be able to respond within the first hour. Simple, really, when you think about it.
In fact, since the meat yield from each animal is much higher (by definition of selective cloning as the pinnacle of selective breeding), I would argue that using more cloned animals would reduce the ecological impact of the meat industry.
...assuming that the lower price doesn't increase demand. If the price isn't lower, then people won't buy it.
So I ask you, Professor John Nash, what should I do out of a Game Theory analysis? If everyone is told, to drive at a certain time, is it better for me, if drive at that time? Prisoners' Dilemma, on the roads.
Clearly, a random time from 00:00 through 23:59. Then traffic will be spread evenly.
But imagine man, a system where you can walk around the object and see it from any angle. OK right, but now, what if you could touch the object too! And even manipulate it. Now, get ready for this, what if it were a whole world like that? Crazy idea, I know, but maybe some day we can implement this.
Dude, when I sit in my room and can't see anything outside it, it like doesn't exist. So it makes sense that the sky got starrier when these guys realized there were more stars in it. Hold on, a phone just materialized out of nothing, ringing.
A do not track list is quite different than a do not call list. The latter is about companies calling you, wasting your time and phone minutes when you're not interested. Gathering demographics doesn't waste your time. Put another way, you have no way of knowing whether the no track list is even being followed, whereas you can easily tell if the do not call list is being followed, because you get annoying calls.
I'm not saying that tracking you on the web isn't offensive, just that it's fundamentally different than calling you specifically and wasting your time, or sending you junk mail. If we're going to address web tracking, why not address all the ways that marketers gather data on people? A big one is stores tracking what you buy, even if you don't use one of their loyalty cards, because they can track based on your credit/debit card number.
Man, I just found out that if a person's heart stops beating for a few minutes, he dies! Something must be done about this, or millions of people will start dying every day due to heart failure. We need to build in redundancy, or the human race might not survive.
That won't help. It's not the hardware being fingerprinted. It's the user. The phone is scanning the fingerprint of the user and sending that to the advertiser.
Well, you might be interested in my finger-renting service. Every month, we ship you a new set of fingers. Some restrictions apply.
All the externally imposed order of government does is force men into a pattern that is slightly unnatural.
And give some men massive power over others. Man cannot be trusted with power, period, so the ONLY way to prevent this is to not give anyone power over anything beyond his own property, PERIOD. Every form of regulation favors some parties, or can be altered slightly to favor some other party. This makes it easier for these paries to gain power over others in the market.
Guys like you crack me up. You depend on the regulations as much or more than anyone else. You couldn't handle a truly free market. In a market with no regulations, you can't enforce a contract. In a truly free market your grocer can sell you poison and not tell you. If that's freedom to you, more power to you, but get ready to be screwed constantly, and screw constantly, because you won't survive unless you sink to their level.
Read about what free market means, please. It respects contracts and property rights (and not the imaginary ones, which are anti-free-market), since these are voluntary.
And in order for loss leaders to work in most cases you have to have some sort of monopoly. Even if it is just requiring the users to buy products that are licensed for it by producers that pay a licensing fee for the privilege.
Copyright and patents are government-enforced monopolies, so no surprise there.

"You keep using that phrase. I do not think it means what you think it means."
So you believe it's wrong to copy something outside of fair use?
I wouldn't have a problem with marketers sending me lots of canned spam. I could sell it or store it for the coming apocalypse.

Therefore he did nothing illegal.
Sell the car at a loss, make up for it by selling the electricity at a markup. Er, wait...
Then how did all the news sources know that NASA was going to make some breakthrough discovery the next day/later this day?
eyepatch, pegleg, canon, parrot. Arrr!!!
NASA is taking some lessons from Apple it seems, and making me lose respect for them in the process.
It's a preview, as in, what happens before you get to view it.
You must be new here.

The true kind or the false kind?
