Why use the battery icon anyway? Seems to me that I'm less likely to be looking at that icon when the phone is in my pocket, which just so happens to be the time that really want it to not explode. If there were a loud siren when it started getting to hot, or whatever signals the icon reacts to, that'd be much better. Or maybe just turn the thing off? But an ICON???
The 12 minute movie named "Meridian" was simply test footage that Netflix created in order to test different variables within Netflix's scope of development. That 12 minute movie is now being shared with all the world to use freely.
In a global media business, Hollywood is often producing dozens of versions for each movie. Not only do different markets require different subtitles, but there are also airline versions that come without riskier scenes, local content requirements like the need to pixelate all full-frontal nudity in Japan, dubbed versions and more. In order to cope with such differences:
Netflix wants to solve problems like these by using the Interoperable Master Format (IMF), an emerging standard for exchanging master files between studios and services like Netflix. In essence, IMF combines the raw video file with a set of instructions that tell Netflix which parts it needs to omit in which regions, and when it needs to use which audio files. “We used to get baked cakes,” said Fetner. “With IMF, we get all the ingredients.”
"When a customer wishes to connect a domain, the service provider needs to know who the DNS provider is. To do this, Domain Connect specifies a TXT record be added to the DNS for a domain that specifies a URL that can be called for discovery. The service provider queries the domain for this TXT record (called “DOMAIN_CONNECT”) which, if present, indicates that the domain is served by a DNS provider that supports the Domain Connect protocol. Given the URL, a service provider can call a API endpoint for protocol discovery:
GET v2/{domain}/settings"
I don't like the idea of a TXT record letting everyone know that my domain allows an API to edit it's configuration.
Nope, it's not accidental because the software interpreted "huge" in a way that it associated with "huge penis". It was a software fail, and this type of possibility should have been considered when writing the software.
Whatever mentality you've invested in is your business, but laws of the land are laws of the land. Showing pictures or otherwise exposing children to sexual acts is illegal in America.
If I had several large pictures in my hand, turned around so the kids couldn't see them, and each time a kid said a word, I'd turn a picture around that matched, to my way of thinking, what the kid said, and when a kid said, "huge" I turned around a picture of a lady blowing some guy with a huge penis, I'd be taken to jail. However, in this case, almost everyone will accept that this was just an unfortunate accident. Sorta strange how corporations are people, but cannot go to jail.
I don't use twitter, but I'm sitting here trying to imagine some words that I'd never want to read, and I can't think of any. Maybe today I'm not feeling like hearing "Donald Trump" or "Hillary Clinton" or "Politics", but then maybe tomorrow I will want to hear a bit.
I know there are words that others find vulgar or offensive, but I don't care about words, I care about ideas. And how the hell do you filter out ideas? For an example, I don't care about any of these words: "I can't wait to shred your daughter's vagina", but when put in that order, I do. Another example: "Black lives matter".
Or are other people's lives so simple that they merely excluding certain words makes the pain go away? I'm interested to know which words people find, under all circumstances, offensive.
Harris declined to comment. In a 2014 letter to the Federal Communications Commission, the company argued that if the owner’s manuals were released under the Freedom of Information Act, this would “harm Harris’s competitive interests” and “criminals and terrorist[s] would have access to information that would allow them to build countermeasures.”
Well then just print a manual and give it to us, then burn your copy. We'll keep our copy safe, so no terrorists will ever be able to read the manual. At least that's what Apple was asked to do.
This bill rejects an amendment to rule 41 (Search and Seizure) of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure adopted by the U.S. Supreme Court and transmitted to Congress for review on April 28, 2016. (The amendment allows a federal magistrate judge to issue a warrant to use remote access to search computers and seize electronically stored information located inside or outside that judge's district in specific circumstances.)
(The Touch-And-Go Sample Acquisition Mechanism) TAGSAM has three separate bottles of gas, which allows up to three sampling attempts. Although TAGSAM is a new technology, vacuum and micro-g tests of the TAGSAM sampler head have proven its ability to collect more than required 60 grams of sample. TAGSAM was developed by Lockheed Martin.
So they only get three shots (at most) at collecting samples. I'm interested to see how this goes.
Most of the tools you will find in Linux are written in C. Even programs written in Perl, Python, Ruby, PHP and other scripting languages end up calling GNU C Library wrappers as their interpreters are also written in C. Because Umbreon library hooks libc functions, creating a reliable tool to detect Umbreon would require a tool that doesn’t use libc.
One way is to develop a small tool to list the contents of the default Umbreon rootkit folder using Linux kernel syscalls directly. This bypasses any malicious C library installed by Umbreon. If the output contains one or more files with names starting with libc.so followed by a random integer, this is the red flag that suggests Umbreon is installed in the machine.
We have also created YARA rules that detect Umbreon, which can be downloaded here.
Removal Instructions
Umbreon is a ring 3 (user level) rootkit, so it is possible to remove it. However, it may be tricky and inexperienced users may break the system and put it into an unrecoverable state. If you are brave enough to proceed, the easiest way is to boot the affected machine with Linux LiveCD and follow the steps:
Mount the partition where the/usr directory is located; write privileges are required.
Backup all the files before making any changes.
Remove the file/etc/ld.so..
Remove the directory/usr/lib/libc.so..
Restore the attributes of the files/usr/share/libc.so...*.so and remove them as well.
Patch the loader library to use/etc/ld.so.preload again.
Umount the partition and reboot the system normally.
As a result, the issue has "moved up as a priority" for the intelligence agencies, which include the FBI and Department of Homeland Security as well as the CIA and the National Security Agency.
Good, this sort of thing is supposed to be their job. Given that they've been so focused on domestic surveillance since 9-11-01, let's see how well they do at it.
I like your reply, really I do. You have a great point, and using the real-world example from Italy helps. However I'd like to point out that...
The idea that an entire city of people will suddenly flock to another to "scramble to help" is simply absurd.
...is simply absurd. Not sure where you live, but I'm very near to Mississippi (a place where we used to get multiple hurricanes every year). When Hurricane Katrina hit, it was not possible to reach anyone there without traveling to the area (southern-most parts of Louisiana to Mississippi). The only government help in place was positioned at the Walmart(s) to prevent anyone from looting. Many, and I can't stress enough how many, people came from Alabama and Texas to help. Hell, even Mexico sent it's army.
To think that there were people living in Alabama, very near to the devistation experience by people just a few miles away, that may have been to busy on facebook (which wasn't big at the time) to help out, would, in many people's opinion, be worse than absurd. I'm willing to bet that those folks in Italy would agree.
So maybe we're both correct, and we can conclude that one should, if one can, post "I'm ok" to facebook, then, if one can, go help out those in need.
I don't think I understand. Do you mean that if a nuclear strike or earthquake hits California, and it destroys a lot, as far out as Nevada, then the folks in Utah should still be able to say "I'm ok" to the folks in New York, via facebook? Because what I got out of what 110010001000 said was that the folks in Utah should be scrambling to help those in Nevada and California, rather than browsing facebook, and cat videos. I may be reading to much into it though.
...and why is this an idea NOW. I mean, Zika's been out for a (kind of) long time in various parts of the world, and no one ever really thought about wiping them out totally. Hell, malaria and AIDS have been out for years, completely trashing a large number of people every year. But once zika hit the US, it's "KILL ALL OF'M!!!" Typical American way of thinking and it's never ended well.
I admit, sometimes I'm fooled by idiots out there. I mean, it's a strange world, and sometimes it's hard for various reasons to pick out the idiots. But once they say "I could care less", "anyways", or "acrosst", I know.
Wake me up when it is 25 years old... No one celebrates their 19th...
Not sure what's more odder, not celebrating your 19th birthday (or any birthday for that matter), only celebrating your 25 birthday (WTH happens at 25 besides the possibility of a car insurance discount), or the fact that I used the phrase "Not sure what's more odder".
I think that what Mr. 110010001000 is pointing out is:
People think it's easier to get an internet connection (and assume that others have an internet connection) and view/post about being ok than it is to simply pick up a phone and call your loved ones, or even stranger, leaving the house and actually checking on them.
Looking at this Obama trip to China, it looks like they did a lot more talking (or arguing? Can't ever really tell when most Chinese men are arguing or just talking) than they did doing. Tensions between China and the US are really really high these days, and very little is said about it in the media. I suspect WW3 will happen within the next 20 years, right after I pay off my house.

So good on Netflix for sharing.

All of these. If they have no use, then they'd never have been invented.
Thanks for correcting.

"Black people don't have empathy" = 1 result
"Niggers don't have empathy" = 6 results
"White people don't have empathy" = 3 results
"Honkeys don't have empathy" = 0 results
So, google's racist.

Trade shows allow a hands-on experience. People can play with the stuff, see stuff working/not working.
It makes sense most of the backdoors are coming from this kind of corruption in the private sector, not the government.
Please explain how the corporate private sector isn't the government. Who did Snowden work for, the government or the private sector? I'm so confused.
