Alastair MacGibbon, head of the Australian Cyber Security Centre said, "You might know of some of their entry points and some of the ways they’ve grafted themselves into a system and you can take action against those and do things like the password reset,"
The article stinks of a phishing attack and it sounds like they haven't figured out 2FA yet. Which says a lot about his claims of who could be responsible. Who remembers Comodo?
What is interesting about actual nation state attacks now taking place is if the locales, IPs, timezones, code snippets point to say; China. Well then they've probably been set up. Unless you're NK, they clearly can't hide shit and are happy to take credit. I recall the leaks that WannaCry came from had tools to change code to make it look foreign.
I understand there needs to be cost cutting somewhere in devices like this but it's the single component that has never been updated. PoE and network booting is really useful and I think I'll upgrade. More I/O bandwidth would kill the competition.
It must be Chromium as there is no source code for Chrome. Chromium builds using chrome.exe is normal. The elephant in the room is the files containing Chrome branding, that shouldn't be there.
Members of the cabinets are high profiles for targeted hacking - nation states looking for leverage, criminals looking to make a buck, hell even script kiddies for the 'lulz'. Our governments are well aware of the security shortcomings in our communications technology, proven by hoarding of security vulnerabilities rather than fixing them, don't forget the outrageous level of surveillance and spying. So, I'm begging the question, why would phones even be allowed in such a meeting?
Tldr: all the phones are turned off and put in a box.
First off, a repost and now a little analysis of the title...JavaScript Exploit Leaves All Android Devices [not all devices have chrome and even then not everyone uses chrome] Ripe For Attack [wrong, exploit is undisclosed and being patched].
There is splashes of little ironies through out the comedy that this incident has caused. Most of the bitcoin wallets were indeed held off line, so had the attack been an outside intruder only so much currency would have been there to steal. Following the physical layout of a 'real' bank is wise, as long as nobody lets the bank manager run off with the contents of the vault in an armored truck.
One of the reasons why computer security has turned in to a cat and mouse game - that quite frankly we are losing, is the computer architecture model we use for everything hasn't really changed. A physical separation of user space and kernel space in to two systems, then ideas like this become rather useful.
Excuse but US trade embargo will have not much at all to do with Cuba. It is all about US tourist going to Cuba (legalising Cannabis will promote that faster than anything else) and some Cuban products going to the US. Why the hell would Cuba import anything from the US when the US imports it all from China. Let's be honest Cuba just wants US dollars (for as long as they last) to buy stuff from Russia and China.
Let's be honest, US has only brought Cuba back in to the peace because of the current geo-political situation.
the reason people can multi-table so much is because you rarely have to do anything. mostly you are just folding until you find hands or positions you want to play from, multi tabling reduces the boredom and stops you from playing in hands you shouldn't. It is not uncommon to go 10-20 hands in a row on a table where all you are doing is folding. multi tabling is not hard.
Yeah sure, you are right and multi-tabling works great if you are a level above your competition. Where multi-tabling falls down though is studying your opponents style and play. Necessary to give you an edge against players who are of a similar skill to you.
I have Netflix and there is no streaming option, only DVD discs.
No idea where you are in the world but Netflix has different content licenses for different regions (based on your DNS server location so it's very easy to fool). Spotify and I imagine the rest of streaming services are the same.
I get why many people will probably see this as a gimick but as someone who loses fucking everything, I think this is _really_really_ cool and after reading in to it, seems like the guys behind it know their shit. It is certainly a well thought out design. Sure I can wear a truckers chain, as other people have mentioned but I'm in my 20's - I could never imagine wearing one of those. While practical, they are clunky and would only serve to annoy.
I already can't leave the house without charging my Bluetooth headset, my Fitbit, my iPhone, my iPad, my Kindle, my iPod, my MacBook, and my iWatch. Now I'll need to charge my wallet.
I'm guessing you're probably trying to be funny..but 2 year battery life - it will also charge through recycling heat or kinetic energy.
Hey look, there's Israel again (at least 3 times in fact). This Komodia/Superfish crap is likely Mossad sponsored. That would also help explain why Homeland Security put out urgent guidance to remove the crapware and even Microsoft added detection directly to their anti-malware tools. NSA doesn't like being upstaged on its own turf.
I love a good conspiracy as much as the next one but calm yourself. No idea why you got the + mod points. Jumping to random conclusions based on conjecture is silly. That said, I'm sure MOSSAD likes to get up to all kinds of evil shit. Just like their Five Eyes, Russian, and Chinese colleges do. Homeland Security and Microsoft reacted to Superfish because the information was in the public domain. In the same way we are reacting to it by discussing it right now.

Custom ROMs are still a thing, lots of us still love them. We just don't bitch and moan in public anymore because of treble.
Have Google's apps previously been abusing these permissions?
Can Google now circumvent this block?
This is kinda funny.
journald single purpose is replace plain text in files to binary, antithetical to unix design.
While you're correct, journald has it's own binary like all the other bits of systemd. This does not necessarily mean the underlying code is modular.
Rovers have beamed back images to Hayabusa2.
So all I/O is still over a single USB bus?
I understand there needs to be cost cutting somewhere in devices like this but it's the single component that has never been updated. PoE and network booting is really useful and I think I'll upgrade. More I/O bandwidth would kill the competition.

He ain't going to go out and buy a new phone with dual sim just to make traveling a little easier, that would be a waste of money.

You get the same memory, a faster processor (by raw GHz - the Zenfone is Intel), for $299.
Why would I go with this phone instead?
Surely the people of /. at clever enough not to compare by raw GHz when two processors have the same architecture. Oh wait, they don't even have that.
Sure seems likely. Cataracts and even aging cells, too, one day.
It's an exciting time to be alive; with quality of life extension, space exploration, and artificial intelligence on the very real scientific horizon.
If only we can resolve our speciescidal tendencies.
"speciescidal" - unfortunately, that's a word made up out of thin air.

All you have to do is read anything about the books.
Not really, having watched them it's starting to look like a different thing completely.
ah doesn't reckon yer thesis is necessarily co'reck, an' thet th' article is cornfusin' dialeck wif language.
I don't fink yor thesis is necessarily correct, right, and that the article is confusin' dialect wiv 'am sandwich.
Or maybe you reckon the above is "English"?
Nicely done. Al' run intae the corner wae ma Scots.

"Internet expl..Internet Exploiter?..Internet Explorer?"
Brilliant.
Chrome already has it's own method for doing remote desktop.
It won't be supported because it will be competing directly with something Google already does.
*puts cynical hat on*
i.e passing through Google's data centers.
