The potential of the cloud though is that when a Furbie figures out which jokes make his owner-child laugh, other furbies can reorder their lists.
If we can do it safely it seems kinda cool.
Yes but how long until/b/ figures out how to spoof this out and spams their servers sexual and racial epitaphs, thus leading to a furbies becoming the toy equivalent of bucket the chatterbot
We can no longer buy iodine, or red phosphorus, or acetyl chloride, because they can be used to make meth. If someone makes a machine that can "print" arbitrary small molecules, what makes you think that The Authorities will view these machines any more tolerantly?
you can also processe those out of other things phospher for example can be processed out of urine (that was how it was discovered in the first place) iodine can be bought at in water purification kits for backpacking. where theres a will theres a way.
grey goo is already here we call it bacteria and guess what it hasn't eaten the planet, why because eating the planet require lots and lots of energy. scifi grey goo won't happen.
I would like to filter the following ever-expanding list of terms: 3d print, make community, maker, hackerspace, ruby, ruby on rails, disrupt, women in tech, code.org, zuckerberg
I need push updates on: Bennett Haselton, hugh pickens, and/. beta news.
Thanks a million.
What you really need a greasemonkey userscript to change all Zuckerburg to Zoidberg.
That's not the real reason, they don't want anyone sneaking booze into place where they'd otherwise spend money on beer and drinks. Like stadiums, concerts, etc.
Don't believe everything a politician tells you, they get money from Bud, Coors, and Jack Daniels.
then why don't Bud Coors and Jack Daniels just make their own branded powdered alcohol.
So how does the whole per-file random AES key work? Since they're only shipping over the one 'key' parameter, the individual file keys have to be somehow deterministic right?
or are all of the keys are stored in a encrypted keyring where the key they give you unlocks all of the keys in the keyring which then unlocks all of your files.
Just a few days ago I made the case why homeopathy or other "magical medicine" and the way it might be practiced today can offer at least one significant upside vis-a-vis regular medical treatment... or should I say council?
That homeopathic substances probably offer no better remedy than placebos is not really news. However, they *do* offer cheap placebos, which also can be a good and useful thing. And placebos are effective, or at least have an effect, there are enough studies that prove that.
The problem is when the placebo effect is not powerfull enough to overcome a medical issue but real pharmaceuticals are and the people instead choose the placebo homeopathy because its natural and better when it really isn't. Or when the people selling the diluted sugar pills are charging equal or more that real effective pharmaceuticals.
Secondly the placebo effects also works when there are real medicines as well so you get two benefits (real and placebo). were homeopathy is just one(placebo).
The kernels default should be the revision the kernel implements. If the kernel implements five the value should be five. A report_acpi_ver= flag seems like a perfectly reasonable solution, but it should be up to the distros to override that with their boot loader configs; where someone might actually see it. If its really such a common problem that it makes sense to do that widely out of box in the first place.
Software should do the least astonishing thing, and I think having the kernel inaccurately report acpi support would qualify as astonishing.
Isn't working properly the least astonishing thing?
Look at the products, skin lighteners, hair straighteners, plastic surgery, things that can damage the skin, scalp and cause lifelong disfigurement, but that promise ine thing... to be whiter
also hair curling irons, skin bronzer, plastic surgery (can be used both ways) tanning, hair dye promising to be darker.
some people just aren't satisfied with who they are.
It has been several hours since the latest threats and developments of the war with ISIS. Slashdot please report
NO! That is just the opposite of what the News for Nerds should be reporting. More Science, More Engeering More Hacks More D&D, More SciFi less war coverage unless its BSD vs GNU, or Emacs vs Vi vs Ed, and for love of $Deity less politics outside debate over SystemD vs LaunchD vs OpenRC vs SysV Init.
Since you are taking bug reports with Firefox on Linux I am seeing sigs be overlapped by the reply parent and share buttons. But hey this is better than beta was thanks for taking community input this time and not sacrificing width
only in the since that you take a photograph, and you "should be paying" in the same way any group of thugs says "I'll hit you if you don't pay me for doing this".
Well the government also thinks they have a right to charge you for simply taking pictures on national park and forest service land too.
No. It took 25 years for people to wake up and see what's happening around them.
Unfortunatelly, it is way too late now.
25 years ago it wasn't justified to take to arms to solve the problem. I'm not sure it is justified yet either. But I don't see anyone in power trying to correct things so there is no way this will end other than with bloodshed.
Well to quote Thomas Jefferson
God forbid we should ever be twenty years without such a rebellion. The people cannot be all, and always, well informed. The part which is wrong will be discontented, in proportion to the importance of the facts they misconceive. If they remain quiet under such misconceptions, it is lethargy, the forerunner of death to the public liberty. What country before ever existed a century and half without a rebellion? And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
Zfs filesystems do the same, vmware is easier to use thats all. Sparc is a niche market for large corporations. (Banks, financial services, payrolls), thats why is expensive. There is no way a large corporation will use a cheap commodity hardware and vmware for mission critical operations.
That may be true for corporate dinosaurs, (big old companies that started back when having a corporate song sounded like a good idea) but most corporations that got started after the 90s have only ever lived on commodity Intel/AMD (in some cases even ARM) hardware.
I agree that free software is a good thing, and so does Oracle, as they give away their RedHat clone for free.
Oracle gives away PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLLite, and several other databases in their clone, and will support them if that is important to you.
Some applications require scalability, availability, or other features that are beyond the realm of the free databases. In those cases, Oracle database XE is free, standard edition is under $10k, and enterprise is available where performance outweighs cost.
I wholeheartedly concur that it will be a good day when a free database gets on the TPC-C top ten list.
Oracle has nothing to do with PostgreSQL Development, they do however develop Berkeley DB both of which came from University of California Berkley research projects.

a 4096 bit pgp key exchanged via qr code or retrieved from something like gnunet or namecoin?
yes and solar radiation isn't enough or photosynthesising bacteria would have consumed the earth.

It says this malware refuses to do anything if it detects VM. How to make my computer look like a VM?
My first guess is install vmware tools so it looks like a guest os?
I have actually wondered why they wouldn't check for things like that and use them as an attack vector for the host computer.

...and hosts file blocking can be too crude, especially against tracking.
don't say that outloud you will summon apk with such speech.
What's the advantage of distributing binaries other than binaries of GCC?
Because not everyone wants to run gentoo or LFS (linux from scratch).
Thank you Dice for pushing me to GitHub!
does github allow distributing binaries still? I thought they stopped doing that back like three years ago.
Stop defacing our money buddy.
I ain't you buddy pal.

Rob Pike and I came to the conclusion that you can get too concise in a language. The example was APL.
Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler.
Can you name a single primarily psychopathic society to provide even anecdotal experimental evidence for your claim?
