If some hacker somewhere inserts a virus, or otherwise gains control of my car, and my car gets into an accident, who is liable? Me, cuz I didn't keep my car fully patched? The car maker, cuz they didn't make patches available? The software vendor, cuz they had buggy software?
My guess is the lawyers will go after whomever has the deepest pockets that they think they can force to a settlement, liability be damned.
Broken bones take what, 1-4 months to heal depending on the bone and the break. If you replace the bone you need to cut off all the muscles/tendons/whatever cuz I'm not a doctor. How long will it take the muscles/tendons/other stuff to heal?
I live in San Diego. We've got 3 Chargers players out for the year due to tendon injuries. My understanding is they're a walk in the park to fix, but take months and months to heal, and a lot of the time you never get back to 100%
Did I mention I'm not a doctor, and most of my medical knowledge is from reruns of ER and Emergency?
why we have Homeland Security? It's supposed to let the FBI ask the NSA dudes "um, hey. know how to hack these cellphones, or find out if they've been hacked, or even better, know how to make it harder to hack em?"
Cuz we all know the NSA can hack your cell phone 9 ways to friday.
My problem with HTML5 is you can't jump around in the video reliably. Lets say it's a 5 minute vid, you're 2 minutes in and "whoa, what was that?", try to go back 10 seconds and you get the loading screen. Or you're 2 minutes in, bored, jump ahead a minute, and get the loading screen. Or 2 minutes in, someone knocks on your door, you pause, open it a few minutes later and get the loading screen.
doesn't help HTML5 seems to load at the speed of play. Forget about watching the first minute, getting bored, and jumping ahead 2 minutes.
And I can't seem to stop the auto-play videos no matter what web-sites google sends me to nor which settings I set. Autoplay video? Close the tab. Don't care what the content was, autoplay video is an automatic close the tab.
I've written parsers for both MPEG-1 and MPEG-2, and while I never actually looked I never saw any security problems with either. I'm guessing Flash is the same way. The protocol is fine, the implementation is problematic.
Lets turn that around. You leak my personal information, you're a CXX, you go to jail for 2 years. Plus all the additional penalties being a convicted felon bring you. Funny how many CXX's think security is something to pay attention to.
Penalties double if you're a federal employee.
>br>
Penalties quadruple if you are 1 link or less from a congresscritter.
Somehow I see the NSA suddenly being tasked to secure us, instead of attack us. I don't see that as a bad thing.
I wanna know how to reliably turn off auto-play video/audio under the current version of chrome and html5. Yeah, I've googled it and set the settings. The settings are routinely ignored.
I don't know anyone who likes autoplay video/audio, which is why the marketers love it so much. Fuck them all, poke their eye out and fuck them in the skull.
Html5 is making me miss flash, something I never thought would happen.
Used to be football and news, but after the realizing last year how hard the Spanos family was totally fucking Chargers fans and San Diego taxpayers I don't really care about football anymore.
Don't say "antenna", I live in San Diego and with all the mountains I might get 1 or 2 stations.
No, I don't email on my phone. Went to tell me something important? Send a text. Everyone that knows me knows that, the only email I get is either junk or something like PDFs I don't want to read on my tiny phone's screen.
My concern is not with telling me I spent $45.27 at Vons Friday, $52.87 at the gas station on Sunday, and $19.12 at Applebee's Tuesday. I'm fine with that and need it to verify I actually made those purchases.
No, what bothers me is the end of year statement has maybe 100 categories, from food,to alcohol to gas,to prescription drugs to amusement park admission to tires you get the drift. They tell me how much I spent in each category. As none of the amounts are 0 I assume there are more categories, they only print the ones with a non-zero amount.
First, I don't trust the security of the phone. There is nothing on my phone that I would care about if a hacker got it. No logins, no passwords, no addresses. Just a couple apps and several phone numbers.
Second, I don't see why I should give big companies yet another chance to mine my data. Especially something as sensitive as my spending habits. I still use cash a lot for this very reason, every year my credit card company sends me a statement showing me exactly how closely they track my spending.
Oh, wait, we do. The NSA. Their job should be to find these vulnerabilities, notify the vendor, and help keep us all safe. Too bad our current USA government is so corrupt simple things like this simply don't happen.
Back in '05 I bought an Infinity G35 and my parents bought a Buick Regal. Still got my G35, but the Buick developed software problems soon as the warranty expired. Stuff like if they locked the car, a couple minutes to a couple hours later the burglar alarm would go off. Or something would turn on and drain the battery. Or dad would be driving down the road and all the idiot lights would light.
Mom died a few years back, my sister grabbed the car (dad can't drive any more). Haven't heard her say a single good thing about the car except it was free.
Plug for Meineke in Santee, California. Before mom died I took dad and his car there to troubleshoot it. They spent a couple hours on it with no luck, then refused to charge dad because they didn't find the problem. Never mind the labor they put into it, they refused to charge us. Been taking my car there for service for some 5-6 years, no complaints. Finding an honest mechanic is much harder than it should be.
First off, I would never rent my house for a week or two. I just don't trust people that much.
Second, if I was going to rent my house out for a week or two I would look at age first. That 50 year old black couple is going to beat the 20 year old single white dude. Every. Single. Time.
I'm not an encryption expert, nor have I ever been. I was a CDMA expert some 20 years ago, when Qualcomm was drinking their Ovaltine. Twitter is based on SMS (Short Message Service), as defined by the IS-95 spec. Every once in a while, defined by the slot cycle index, itself defined by the carrier (it's a tradeoff between battery life and how long the user waits for their phone to ring), the handset will query the base station "Hey bud, got anything for me?" and gets a yea/nay response. One of these messages has to be 255 bytes long, and there are an unused 153'ish unused bytes in it. Those 153'ish bytes are how SMS messages are sent. Twitter has overhead, hence you have 142 byte twitter msgs.
Keep in mind this is just a simple "hey bud!" shouted across a crowded party. The handset and the base station never setup a call, which is a lot of overhead.
To encrypt this channel you need an app on both ends to do the encryption, send the encrypted message over SMS (which uses some binary codes to do things like send long DTMF tones so ya gotta convert to ASCII first), then the other end needs to decrypt the message. Which to my encryption == magic mind means you have to set up a call.....
You have a company that evidently doesn't know jack shit about technology, buying the #1 technology disrupter in a generation. Softbank knows how to make money in the short term, which is at complete odds of growing a standard to make money long term.
Anyone with half a brain knows HRC is corrupt as fuck, and Trump is 100% unsuited for the office. FFS, the mainstream media has done a fine job of showing 2/3 of the electorate is aware of this is a fact, they're voting against someone instead of for someone.. Most of us don't think either one should be top dawg.
Mainstream media needs to start focusing on the alternatives, like Johnston and Stein, and quit telling us we're stuck with the two fuckwits we see on 99% of the news coverage.

If it can tell various types of porn apart then it can categorize, um, my friend's collection he keeps meaning to organize.
Exactly the same here. Didn't get my wits scared out of me at 3 AM, but I heard about it the next day and immediately disabled the stupid thing.

They actually have base stations in semi trucks they can move to where they need the data, add power and voila!

Oh yeah. Win10, fully patched, Chrome, latest version.
Or is it the implementation of the protocol?

That if HRC doesn't win in November, she'll be in jail a year from November?
Get a DOJ not paired with the dems, and HRC's defenses fall apart. She's done too much, she either pardons herself or goes to jail.

Is it just to make light? Cuz I got too many LEDs in my home entertainment unit, and about 1/3 of them have a piece of black tape over them.
