I'm not so sold on the evils of writing passwords down as it requires the Evil Actor to have physical access in order to exploit it. And as we all know, once you have physical access it is pretty well game over for security in general.
Just hope there is no incident that happens where some really needs to make a call.
As long as people are aware of the situation then what's the problem??
I can drive 5 miles off the freeway around here and not have any cell service. Should I be scared to go there because I might really need to make a call?
I've had the card cloned a couple of time in the last five years, and it was never more than a minor inconvenience. Call the number in the back, tell them that I didn't spend $2000 on a strip club in Mexico, and they send me a new one.
Or in my case, get an email from Amex basically telling me, "we didn't think you spent $2000 on a strip club in Mexico, so we have blocked that transaction for you. We'll be sending you a new card".
1. Develop networking infrastructure full of security holes even though huge profits could be ploughed into auditing.
2. Wait for vulnerabilities to be exploited.
3. Report on vulnerability findings.
4. Tell buyers that they will need to pay for a cripplingly expensive support contract to receive updates.
5. Goto 1 until people wake the fuck up. (optimized: Goto 1.)
You're overthinking this. You don't even need any outside actors to do the vulnerability development and exploitation:
1. "Sell" product to customer 2. Send in audit team 3. Announce that the customer is not in compliance with their license 4. Extract $$$ from customer to become compliant 5. Goto 2.
Australia just can't move freely around the globe without something else moving. So is happening to the other tectonic plates?
The ABC link mentions that the Australian plate is moving North at 7cm/year and that the Pacific plate is moving West at 11cm/year, but surely they can't be the only ones that move.
Do you think the President gets to launch nukes himself? He has a button his desk to fire nukes? Are you really that stupid?
Apparently you are rather ignorant of the process. While the president doesn't have a button on his desk, he does have the authority to order a nuclear strike. Nuclear football
So the Dems have been hacked, apparently multiple times and these hacks have been widely publicized. To me that raise the question of why aren't we hearing anything about hacks on the GOP side?
Is it because the GOP has security that is orders of magnitude better than the DNC? Is it because the GOP doesn't have any juicy secrets? Is it because the GOP has been hacked, but no-one is admitting to anything? Is it because all the hackers are pro-GOP?
It is a stretch to call powdered metal laser sintered Inconel 718 "3d printed". If we as a society are going to apply the term "3d printed" so such processes, then the term is just a stand-in phrase used by idiots to mean "any CNC manufacturing process that I don't know anything about".
Why is it a stretch to cal it it 3D printing? It's an additive process. The laser is directed from a 3D model. The process prints out the result section by section. Sure sounds like a duck to me.
That's funny I swore that I first read about it in the Age, which talked about a 4 corners report. And now there are calls for a royal commission. That's one hell of a suppression.
Oh come on now. Don't be so hard on the poor guy. At least this time he didn't add a gratuitous link to something like grape vines of Southern California.
Is there any reason that this plane couldn't have flown into the southern hemisphere for part of its flight? It's not like we don't have sunlight down south.
Jeez.. are you just adding links to the end to stories just for the hell of it? WTF does the hydrogen one have to do with milk in the first place?
It's doing shit like this that pisses off regulars and drives people away. Just check out how people felt about the last lot of overlords.
The only conclusion I can come to is that you are Timmmmah in disguise (albeit a bad one). So quit making a fool of your self and just leave well enough alone.
More relevant to this case is Vickers and Krupp where the British from Vickers owed the German from Krupp a royalty for the shells Vickers sold to the British government for shelling the Germans.
After the war, at The Anglo-German mixed Arbitral Tribunal, Krupp demanded over £300,000 in unpaid royalties between 4th August 1914 and 30th September 1917 plus the interest for the whole non-payment period (1914 to 1926). Despite complaints from a variety of Government institutions about the case not coming to a conclusion, Vickers’ communications were slack. They usually answered, ‘we are consulting our solicitors.’ Their argument was that the Vickers-Krupp contracts specifically stipulated their German nature and therefore the validity of its cancellation during the war. Vickers also insisted it was the government’s responsibility to pay the post-war debts. Government lawyers estimated that should the Germans win the Tribunal case, the Treasury would be liable for half a million pounds sterling, of which Vickers would only contribute £180,000.
After years of legal wrangling, in 1926, Vickers were allowed to negotiate debts directly with Krupp and agreed to pay through the British and German Clearing Offices. On 1st September 1926 Vickers paid £40,000. It seems to be quite a modest estimation of the number of shells made and fired. However, at the same time, Vickers informed the British Government they were purchasing British rights of a Clock Fuze and other patents from Krupp, which must have sweetened the blow.
Even from that link it's not clear how they actually achieve energy savings There are a lot of software buzzwords, but no real description of how they can reduce energy consumption. ("Ye cannae change the laws of physics...")
I agree that its light on details but at least I can get a sense of what they are doing is optimizing how and when their cooling systems run based on mining historical data for patterns that are non-obvious to humans and provide more efficient controls than simple control system feedback loops.
And the single graph has no units on the axes.
I don't mind the lack of units. A 40% differential between before and after shows that they are making a hell of an improvement over current systems.

Both Microsoft and Oracle are well known for audits. I'm sure there are a lot of other big name companies that do the same.

Let me guess, the "3d printed engine" is a regular engine, but they printed the stickers out on a 3d printer.

I think I need to quote Inigo Montoya on this one. Because if something is legal, how can it be fraudulent?

They did exist, but the manufacturers did a total recall on them. However it seems that you've erased that fact from your memory.
