Being invisible sounds ok, until you realize that with perfect invisibility you will be effective blind. That will end non military uses you had in mind.
3D is new tech and hollywood still needs to be get accustomed for this. But movies don't have the time to thinker for a few years with new tech. As Soon as the millions on fliming the movie are spent it needs to go to the theathre as soon as possible. Thinkering arround a 6 months/years in post-production just to get the 3d correct is not acceptable, a lot of people will get broke in that period.
The 3d is just the thing movie theathres need as a gimmick, as there is no home replacement for this (YET). They want it NOW.
Movies needed ajustment for sound (bad sounding actor lost a job) Movies needed ajustment for color (backgrounds needed more substance) Movies needed ajustmnet for IMAX Movies will need adjustment for 3d.
Just like coloring in BW movies will seem different, 3d added afterwards will look different.

Actuallly the OS & voting program and databse does not matter that much. What is important is that there is a verifiable paper trail. The voter should be able to check what he voted (on a paper). A manual recount should be possible. And remember a vote should be secret (not to be traced back to who voted what). You cannot trust that the (open) source code of the program is the same that is actually running on the voting kiosk. (And i probably am forgetting some important specs here) Y A open source system helps, but really is not the core of the problem.
Besides that, the way voters have to register is also important of course. If a voter can vote mulitple times at multiple locations the whole point any voting system is lost. This has nothing to do with the voting computer.
This becomes more important if people distrust their government.
Even from reading the article you can see that there are not always conflicts. They are talking about different models, so it would not be suprising if different data was recorded.
There are still the same vector of attack possible. e.g. if someone signs adobe an old PDF reader.exe as trusted, TCP is vulnerable immediately.
There really is no simple answer to this. The fact that everything is networked nowadays is not helping.
But all vector of attack can be made as hard as possible.
1. The attacker socially engineers a victim, often in an overseas office, to visit a malicious website. Anwer -Train users.
2. This website uses a browser vulnerability to load custom malware on the initial victim's machine. Answer: minimize number of plugin, up to date browser, Put internet acces in a virualized separate part of the network 3. The malware calls out to a control server, likely identified by a dynamic DNS address. Anser: kill those control servers! 4. The attacker escalates his privilege on the corporate Windows network, using cached or local administrator credentials. Answer: Should not be possible. A users should not get admin right. 5. The attacker attempts to access an Active Directory server to obtain the password database, which can be cracked onsite or offsite. Answer: no answer possble, see 4. 6. The attacker uses cracked credentials to obtain VPN access, or creates a fake user in the VPN access server. Answer: Check the VPN access logs AND Use second channel authorisation(token) 7. At this point, the attack varies based upon the victim. The attacker may steal administrator credentials to access production systems, obtain source code from a source repository, access data hosted at the victim, or explore Intranet sites for valuable intellectual property.' Answer: Don't put all the eggs in one basket. A user should only be able to acces what he needs, not everything.
Too bad you are modded troll. The statement you are makeing is exactly the same mistake as alcohol poisoning reasoning as TFA. That is not trolling, that is just a logic mistake that needs to be corrected with a reply or 10 weeks in a Education camp
By the way, stopping with smoking is not as simple as it sounds.
Did you really understand the extend of the updates send by MS? I do read them, but i understand enough of them to understand i cannot guess the exact extend of the updates.
Yes, you have to approve, but even then, what are your options? Once you are in the update treadmill you will have to keep walking. You can skip a update, but in that case you get the update anyway the next time a servicepack/rollup is offered, Or get a odd application that starts crashing.
Is don't say this is bad, but one bad patch can seriously affect a LOT OF the hardware that is out there. skype once even had trouble with it p2p network because of the large number of PC that rebooted in the update treadmill.
The TOS are non-negotiable. Only if you take the most expensive version (data-center) they might be willing to talk about the condition you license the software under. Is that a valid contract? Ah... this is really non relevant... just click OK to continue, you are trained to do that anyway.
Ever heard of Malicious Software Removal Tool that is rolled out in in the monthly patch cycle. It kills software MS deems bad. No court approval for that.
Oh yes... Activision should get a judgment, but only for 500$ times the number of unique boxes the "Patent Compliance Group, Inc." actually bought for their own use, and they did prove they did actually bought in the filing. (and a copy of a box is not an extra offense i should think)
Like the advertising clause, it is not for every copy of a advertisement, it is once for all the copies.
And even then, the judgment should be paid to the US state, not to some private lawyer team.
As state in the comments before, the patents are for devices that are not included in the games. I think the provision for stating false patent information is to balance some of the patent rights. Trying to extend the patents to computer software is exactly what a tech work should not want to happen.
I have a working and active PII 350 (beat that 400 Mhz of you) that runs as a games computer for my 7 year old. Games from that era still work well. It is not cot connected to the internet because I bet something will fail when it get beaten by the upgrade crazyness.....
This isn't about code only. THis is about all knowledge. At school you learn to protect your work. In an office you will have to learn to reverse a lot of that. If you do not share your knowlege you will be doing the same trick still in 20 years. Ever heard about problems in a organisation because of "lack of communication?". Could this be that all those people who were in shigher education for many years never learned to communicate, but only learned to protect their own work. why do you think all kind of towers/islands exist in your coorperation? because people want to protect their work.
If you want to extend this, look at the direction copyright is going into. This is because some industies are mover involved to protect their won work, even enough to sue their own customers.
On the other hand look at the success of wiki's where it is all bout sharing.
probably 95% of a site will render correct under a obsolete browser. Don't force people do to large technical stuff (like downloading) to show 5%. Most of those obsolete browsers are in locked down offices, where people cannot install software.
I can code. I am not american. I am not a lawyer. People are downloading from local mirrors, not from USA. How can i say if the project should be restricted or not?
Why does the USA government not build a firewall to prevent exporting any American byte to the restricted list?

viatube.com still is for sale.
something like only 1 Billion dollar.

It has some magic included, but the number of the cpu is secret

And their WGA server failed also sometimes ago.
I am suprised they were not sued for this.

Do i protect my hardware and CPU's?
-Remote control of user desktop helps a lot.
-Command line commands can be very simply instructed by support. (instead of "click on the rabbit icon")

"Funny how when the RIAA sues an individual, they try to make they paÿ for every copy in existence, now and in the future... "
No. YOu are wrong. RIAA just want want statutory damages. Not a amount that is based on real damages.

Trying to extend the patents to computer software is exactly what a tech work should not want to happen.
Sure, but to test the game you need some input from patent specialists, who are way to expensive for a video game.
If you resists against pulling wires, homepna3.1 equipment exists just for the thing you want:
however devices are hard to find

UAC was created to fix a problem that was there before by a design problem. If there was no problem UAC would not have been needed.

DONT FORCE PEOPLE. SHOW A BANNER SOMEWHERE.
probably 95% of a site will render correct under a obsolete browser. Don't force people do to large technical stuff (like downloading) to show 5%. Most of those obsolete browsers are in locked down offices, where people cannot install software.
