Norfolk State: "The policy broadly prohibits using any university internet technology resources "to further personal views" or "religious or political causes."
It also prohibits downloading or transmitting "inappropriate messages or images," without defining "inappropriate."
those statements just sound like they want pain relief. "doctor, can you give me something to alleviate this pain and suffering" I'm sure a lot of people say this everyday. They don't want to die and they might get better.
It's not a zero day if it was privately submitted over a month before. Zero Day means "a previously unknown vulnerability". It just wasn't public, so they didn't have as much urgency in fixing. Just stop calling it a zero day bug if the developers knew about it before hand.
Exactly. If you wanted to track down gay men.. go to a gay club and look around (or even stand outside and watch who goes in). You certainly don't waste your time making a fake facebook ad. OMG gay clubs are outing gay men!
It does. Governments around the world are planning on spending trillions of dollars and rerouting much of the energy structure in response to these reports. The reports are based on a few computer models and a few more wild predictions. The programmers here know that computer programs can be wrong, and we all know the wild predictions can be wrong. We want to see the source code and check things ourselves. The IPCC has not done that, and in fact has hidden the source code.
Does anyone know a way to deactivate Silk? Besides be slow, and the privacy issue with all your communication going through amazon, it also breaks many things. IP Location, File Uploads and internal Networks are all broken with Silk. Not only that, but I've seen it choke on even basic web pages. I just want it turned off.
It's pretty obvious that Amazon will simply cut ties with any companies in CA, resulting in job losses... and no additional revenue from Amazon. They've done this in a number of states.. these types of tax laws have been completely unproductive.
IFRAME and IMG SRC and similiar spam like this could and should be easily preventable. Browsers however don't normally pass information on the nature of the request. That is, it could tell the server it's coming from a click, a javascript, an iframe, and img src or whatever. Sites should be able to refuse incoming requests that are from an iframe. A simple HTTP header with the type of request would help greatly. It wasn't created as a method of attack, but it's used that way.
Tell me about it. I wouldn't even consider these "holes" as they aren't (immediately) remotely exploitable. If that were the case, firefox has the same "major security hole", as it remembers my bank username and passords. I'm not even sure if the iphone apps are locally exploitable with out the os level jailbreak first?
It's simply the loudest "researcher" that gets the most headlines and generates the most noise.
Logging into my bank is not scriptable (or at least, not easily)... They use a virtual keyboard that changes location each time. It's annoying to enter my code word each time, but nice to know that script kiddies can't get into it.
I'm not sure about banks, but I like the way that AMEX and paypal do it. Amex offers an end of year update, in csv or excel formats, along with a paper format. So, that's once a year, with a nice reminder. Paypal lets you run a report for an entire year, in csv form, and also allows filters for different types of transactions.
Yes, this is how banks should do it... It would be a nice feature for one that would offer it.
Coal produces 4 times as much C02 as gasoline for the same amount of energy. Even if it's a bit more efficient to produce electricity in central locations, it's not more efficient C02 wise. Also consider that the more efficiently gas or coal is burned, the more C02 is produced per unit of fuel.
"because this hasn't happened in living memory"
Ok, maybe you're just a young kid, but a lot of us were around for the last time something bigger broke lose in 1962... Of course, they didn't have as many global warming alarmists around when that happened.
Funny, it doesn't match the mission statement here: http://www.stratcom.mil/factsheets/cc/
That gives and md5sum of 98e1259d50ef66ddf1c6f443f8a86ec5
The stratcom.mil must have been compromised!
These security holes have been there for years.. who knows how many people actually know about them.. Security through obscurity is no way to protect the system. Holes should be patched ASAP.
I've found several holes myself, in both browsers and websites, and I've always sent it to the companies first. Many jump right on it and a fix is out in days (Google was one of these)... Others, sat on it for months and ignored me... until I published the exploit, which they then quickly patched it.
The fact is, publishing an exploit will quicken the patch time for the slow companies.

Does anyone have a good estimate as to how much wasted electricty is going to "creating" bitcoins?

zero results. Did you try this before posting? I believe they are shutting them down.

Don't you think $123 Million buys a better browser than Firefox... It's pretty good, but it could be so much better. I'm glad it has more competition.

People are running around saying NASA discovered alien life.... and that's just wrong.

Not all androids have the app market out of the box... and there are a few versions sold, with upgrades not easy.
Is that actual open air? Wouldn't dirt and water in the air start causing problems?

They have them on desktops too, even some monitors have obtrusive logos. One of the things that Apple got right with their computer products.

It's called the freedom of information act. For publicly funded projects, much of the source material can be requested and made publicly available.
Weren't these emails suppose to be public record? Weren't they illegally hidden emails that were uncovered? Clearly biased story.
