A little googling reveals an RPG grenade is cheaper than the drone this guy used. Last year black market prices were $100 per grenade 5 years ago ($500 now since demand in Syria) A launcher will set you back a couple of grand now though, but they're reusable.
You'd probably do more damage with an RPG than you would with semtex placed on a flat surface out in the open. Despite having less explosive in it, the grenade is designed to direct the energy forward, while also being propelled forward.
While 2kg of semtex would set you back $15, it's a sht load more expensive on the black market. Upwards of $1300 per kg. You'll also need a detonator to make it go boom too, and it's not going to explode if someone shoots your drone either, even after you land.
.... what about the 2kg of Semtex to attach to said cheap drone? You know, enough to scuff the paint on the flight deck he landed on - just enough to piss off the maintenance crew
An RPG would do more damage than a drone with a little bomb. Even better, sink it with a bunch of torpedos. The ship is docked and pretty much empty. No one is going to be there looking at the sonar while it's docked in a shipyard.
brute force is mitigated by account lockout. If someone has a local copy of your password hashes, restricting the available passwords is only going to help a brute force attack.
Here in New Zealand a stop sign is alway accompanied by a yellow line and the word "STOP" painted on the road at the intersection. Give Way signs are either unmarked or have white lines with a triangle on the road.
I assume that means if the sign is damaged, you always know the difference between a stop sign controlled intersection and a regular give way intersection.
The default human condition, before technology, was everyone in the town knew everything about everyone else. Empires were raised and toppled by spies - If you needed to know what went on behind closed doors, you put a person behind those doors to listen.
If the internet was a proprietary, closed system, sure. Maybe. But it's not. You don't control every router on the internet. They're run by millions of individual people/companies, under hundreds of different legal jurisdictions. Trying to make it secure is a fools errand.
The last Intel socket change was for DDR4 support, so there goes the "add more RAM" reason...
These days the year-on-year improvements in performance are getting less and less significant in terms of actually noticing it. Every few years though. something else ends up being upgraded, like DDR technology, PCIe generations, thunderbolt, USB3... These things usually end up getting implemented (except USB3?) in the CPU, which then needs to be passed via the socket and chipset to a connector somewhere. Even if the new stuff is done solely in the chipset, the interface between the chipset and CPU only has so much bandwidth.
The X99 chip only had 20Gbit via DMI 2 DMI 3 doubles that to 40Gbit
that, and to do things like introduce the Core "i" series with GPU (775 -> 1156), shits and giggles (1156 -> 1155), add integrated voltage regulators in to chips (1155 -> 1150), switch from DDR3 to DDR4 (1150 -> 1151)
You can still buy brand new phones that don't have hardware acceleration for H.265. That's a 4 year old codec. VP9 is even less well supported in hardware. It's 5 years old. So, how long until a large chunk people have devices with hardware acceleration for a codec that isn't even public yet?

If they release this E. coli variant into the wild, will people start getting high when they catch it?

Mars has an atmosphere, it's not outer space.
It has about half the pressure on the surface as Earth does at 100,000ft
If you can get up to 120,000ft, the pressure is higher on Mars
Because the journalists at techcrunch.com don't know what a kilogram is.
Thankfully NASA does. https://www.nasaspaceflight.co...
The original source first mentions kilograms
CRS-12 will deliver 2,910 kilograms (6,415 pounds) of cargo to the station

Pretty sure NASA is American...

Sounds like you're upset you don't make more than $40K
temporary signs for roadworks?
Signs vary widely between countries.
Here in New Zealand a stop sign is alway accompanied by a yellow line and the word "STOP" painted on the road at the intersection. Give Way signs are either unmarked or have white lines with a triangle on the road.
I assume that means if the sign is damaged, you always know the difference between a stop sign controlled intersection and a regular give way intersection.

newly received or noteworthy information, especially about recent events.
That's an article from September 2016.
Blogger/Reporter admits he is slightly retarded. Too retarded to follow street signs, but not retarded enough to crash his car in the process.
Sounds like someone's lost their google-fu

The plan is apparently i3 goes from 2 to 4 cores, i5 goes from 4 to 6 and mainstream i7 goes from 4 to 6 with HT
