Those 20-60 deaths seem to be without medical attention. The previous version of this vaccine was pulled the previous version because the side effects was not worth the protection. Your assuming those deaths would happen with proper medical treatment.
Point being accepting life threatening/serious side effects for a non life threatening disease (with proper medical treatment) makes little sense to me. http://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/vp... Sometimes there are side effects that do not show up in trials, as a parent I would generaly not be ok with having my child receive any vacinne without at least a few years in widespread use. Now obviously if everybody was like me nothing would ever get into widespread use.
It's a bit more nuanced you have to look at risk of getting the disease + risk of bad outcome vs risk of bad outcome from the vaccine. For measles and most vaccines the math works.
Now take yellow fever my exposure risk is extremely low and the vaccine kills more than 1 in 500k.
So let me introduce you to the rotavirus vaccine 1 in 20-100k of having a baby need life threatening and life altering surgery. Getting the disease is a maybe you need IV fluids. Transmission is fecal to mouth or fecal to object to mouth, prevention is basic hygiene. This is good for my child how?
Many/most vaccines are good, but the instant you have a profit or even a status/power motive a good deal of suspicion is due.
Lets see Rotavirus CDC numbers is 1 in 20-100k require surgery after getting the vaccine. The actual disease you might need IV fluids and prevention is by washing hands.
I would call that fsking unsafe the vaccine has a much much worse potential outcome than the disease. The bill lets a committee pick any new vaccines they wish to require, ya know those sorts of places that nobody cares about and you end up with it stacking phama reps.
Remember that this becomes an everybody must use something, regardless of price or safety because an unelected committee said so. This is good why?
Do not get wrong plenty of vaccines even with the potential adverse side effects are no brainers. But giving an unelected committee the power to decide what medications your kids will take is idiotic and prone to abuse. Sure this is backlash from the measles gave my kid autism (BTW autism is far better than dead thanks) that does not mean it's right or justified.
15v or 19v watch how many companies will put a cheap LDO to get it down to a usable voltage like IDK say 5v. When it's in a case that then connects to USB. Watch as 2/3 to 3/4 goes into waste heat before even hitting the phone. What phones directly support this "standard". Looks like Car companies want to sell ya some cheap metal strips and call it a feature.
An issue with CC was they took the opportunity to go in a new direction. Having a 5th grader I can tell you math is not about getting it right anymore but the process in the CC that my sons school uses. They use some very dubious methods lots of guess and check that they teach and are pushed to grade to. Problem is that process looks nothing like what we remember.
What is the use case for virt floppy? Drivers nearly never fit, VM's should not need firmware updates. SO why would people still be exposing a virt floppy to VM's?
First off having codes does not mean having the rights, often thats a complex mess on a commercial app. Secondly the build environment is also a complex bit and needed to actually make things work.
It seems to make more sense to work towards the M&M security policy. An edge device that connects the home devices to the internet and deals with a lot of the security aspects. You still need communications security inside the house but if trust is only placed in that one gateway controler.
That said I see things moving to direct wifi connects for mains powered devices, a decent microcontroller and wifi module is down to a few bucks, that is far cheaper that any zwave etc radio. This coupled with every company's desire to have a cloud something that they can try to get a few bucks a month for "special" features to effectively get rent forever. Hell I got a battery powered wifi connected IoT device (wink propane gauge) already.
Thats very dependant on whose implementation of raid 1. I've seen everything from read from one drive, stripe reads, and read from both and compare. Linux will actually let you choose from among some of those options.
ZFS and btrfs add a crc for a group of blocks and and detect which drive has the bad data, correct that and tract that it happened.
The management systems on some of that new construction gear is pretty substantial. Hell there is another startup in the same state that backhauls all of that real time. Now it will take decades before this stuff trickles down to low end rentals.
TPM is very different it protects my keys for me, potentially even against physical attacks
Be have a far different opinion of how things are priced, media tends to charge what the market will stand, and used region coding (in many ways part of DRM) to artificially segment those markets. So I doubt that the consumer will see any savings. If anything I think prices will go up as piracy gets harder and less user friendly. In any event I'm talking about the hardware were all paying a hidden amount to support current DRM and implement future DRM.
DRM can not work "better", if I can watch something I can copy it the question is how much loss. Remember that the further up the stack the more places you need to have DRM.
I'm more in they should get one or the other, the FBI etc should go after large commercial pirates, the ones feeding the guys on the street selling DVD etc. We should not be going after people making backups or transcoding, things that were legal since the timeshifting case of the early 80's.
This is not an example of a DRM scheme, requiring the the LOC hold in escrow all DRM keys would require a new law. This is about being able to recover our digital heritage generations from now and has really nothing to do with the DRM itself. Merely picking a responsible party who is already tasked with cataloging and maintaining copies of these sorts of things.
Could their be good useful DRM sure, I doubt anybody major will ever implement it. Their are means today that can cost effectively curb piracy the corps involved choose not to use them.
They were breached and data did get out the bad actors, it really does not matter than it was those same said bad actors that told the FTC about it. LabMD failed to keep patient records safe and when they were told about the breach failed to act upon that information.
Good because some of us do not want to be forced to drive some tincan put put. I have a truck, it tows things it hauls things and still have enough umph to get the hell out of the way when some idiot driver does something stupid and aftermarket brakes stopping me faster than anything stock. I've also got a cheap and cheerful but still reasonably quick and agile hatchback for school/grocery runs.
It's pretty simple, they can crack the crypto. It's expensive and should be reserved for the most extreme cases. Sure that makes his job harder, making a police forces job harder is a good thing nearly allways. The real bad guys are smart enough not to trust default base level crypto, code books and OTP's are still unbreakable assuming they were made and used correctly. Hell code books look like normal unencrypted communications.
This is about low hanging fruit, turning a car stop into a full digital dump of most peoples digital lives.
As I said watermarking can achieve those goals without any of the downsides of DRM.
DRM requires that there be some part of your device that you do not control. In general it requires a whole chain of things, binary blobs etc etc that you do not control. It will never stop piracy if you can decode the stream and display it on a monitor you can pirate it. HDCP and the like is built on the premise that nobody could afford to save the raw stream, 10-15 years ago that was very expensive now it's no longer the case. Remember that all this DRM gear adds to the cost to consumers, a massive cost in actuality. Why do we need to subsidize and industry with laws that make our things no longer our own and pay for the right to do so? Lets look at audio, sales went up 10% once DRM was removed, do you still think media's requirement for DRM is about stopping piracy vs having control?
It's fair that media industry can try and stop piracy, they should not get special laws to do so, they should not be allowed to effectively have low level access to every bit of hardware to do so. Frankly the best thing the government could do is ditch the protective laws and start heavily taxing all DRM'ed goods and require that the master keys for said DRM be held in escrow by the library of congress or similar with a provision if they fail to continue to manage said DRM they will release the keys and the applicable work goes into public domain. Were at a point where if we do not do something effective DRM means we will loose a massive ammount of our shared culture in the long run. Not a price I'm willing to pay to potentially increase the profitability of fairly small group of corps.
I've got no issue with stopping piracy, but DRM does not do that, it restricts usage by people that actually bought it. It removed peoples right to access things when DRM servers go away etc etc.
Watermarking stops piracy it's not even that expensive to do with digital downloads. It does not have any restrictions associated with it. Sure people will steal a CC and try and make their IP untraceable via TOR, VPN etc etc. That is still a higher bar than DRM provides to piracy today.
Worse yet DRM makes anything that accesses it no longer really yours. Your required to give access to media cartels who have shown they can not be trusted (Sony looking at ya) and run their binary blobs with unrestricted access. My first HDTV 1080 Tube beautiful breathtaking picture and clarity, DRM says no HDCP can not play on this few year old device (at the time) with a 20+ year life expectancy. Oddly I did not accept that, so I rip the BD so long DRM and happily stream to every screen in my house transcoding as necessary.
DRM goes hand in hand with region coding, why can I not buy a legal BD from Russia or wherever and play it? It's perfectly legal for me to buy and bring back into the US.
DRM is not about stopping piracy it's about media cartels continuous search for rent seeking trying to get us to rebuy their media. To pay for DRM equipment to be added to our devices that is under their control. That famous you can not skip these commercials for upcoming disney stuff this stops piracy how (outside that oh so useful do not copy this FBI warning (even though it's perfectly legal to do just that for personal use))
Yup because getting shot as you go to press the button, they will argue it looked like a bomb detonator hell it even seems reasonable at first.
Cop Put your hands behind your head Idiot Cop stop or I'll shoot Idiot But it's my cop camera Cop
It needs to be on the cops with them having very little access or control over it. I needs to get more than just video/audio GPS/Time for starters and it needs to cryptographically sign every frame with strongs protections against tampering.
I could hope, diebold will end up making them a a 5 year old will be able to hack it with a crayola.

Sure add in school choice, you only need a few to half dozen kids to pay for a teacher + overhead with the amounts public schools cost per pupil.
Hell our overall education quality could skyrocket.

Coupled with a 4 way bridge, there is not a whole lot of tech here. I do not even see how it stays in place ya know while driving.
How about you used DRM to deprive people of their right for format shift and backup. Sorry you loose your right to sue for any copyright infringement.
They were not early adopters or anything else back then, the only path they blazed was down the toilet.
AOL users were the unwashed masses back then. An AOL address was a sign you were a dinosaur/technophobe then as well.

Yet they don't link to the bug nor can I find anything besides circular references to the Venom announcement.

Yea because that is not trivial to get around, Oh the OEM we bought it from folded, we do not have the source code etc.

Per the article the whistleblower Wallace testified that he breached LabMD and downloaded patient data. Sounds like a breach to me.
They were breached and data did get out the bad actors, it really does not matter than it was those same said bad actors that told the FTC about it. LabMD failed to keep patient records safe and when they were told about the breach failed to act upon that information.
