If you're running a current generation Intel CPU, then its silicon was fabricated in either Chandler, Arizona, USA or Hillsboro, Oregon, USA. There are no other semiconductor fabrication plants in the world capable of creating wafers with 10nm lithography.
It would have been designed in Santa Clara, California, USA, which is where Intel's engineers reside.
As for your product code, that tells where it was packaged (and no, I don't mean sticking it in a retail box.) Wherever that CPU is packaged is where it is officially "made" for tax/tariff/embargo considerations, but in reality very little of the production happens in that location.
Reading comprehension. He said the internet, not the web. The two are not the same thing and are certainly not interchangeable. The web is just another application that runs on top of the internet.
America, as any dominating nation, fucks up the World to protect its interests. Don't be naive as to think America is doing everyone a favor or something like that.
Hell, without the Marshall Plan alone, I think Europe would be in one of three states right now:
- Annexed by Russia and presently in second world status, with the Iron Curtain still alive and well. - Starting yet another world war, as if the first two weren't enough. - Technologically even worse off than former Warsaw pact states are presently.
That doesn't seem likely, at least not where I live anyways. My apartment complex basically requires a minimum of $45,000 a year to live in the cheapest units, with most people making quite a bit more than that, and it seems that less than half of them carry around an iphone.
I think the term "nurse" is what might stigmatize it, namely because of the implications of the word (i.e. look at the verb "to nurse".) A better sounding (and more accurate) description for it might be "medic" or "medical assistant". Call a nurse practitioner a "medic practitioner" or something like that.
This is why I think it should be an ISP customer responsibility. Sometimes people participate willingly in DDoS (see LOIC for example.) If any participation is detected, they should have their internet connectivity throttled until they fix their security issues.
This isn't far away from how amateur radio operators have to follow a certain code of conduct, and it worked pretty well. I don't see any reason why internet users shouldn't have to observe a similar code.
The decrypt key would still remain in your phone's memory, leaving a potential hole, which is potentially exploitable via a zero-day USB vectored exploit or who knows what else.
The ISP, in turn, immediatly has to notify and throttle users who are part of the botnet. They have to do it otherwise they'll be airing and abetting internet pira...er, ddos attacks, and thus, are open to lawsuits. This creates the proper incentive to rubber stamp... I mean, streamline the process.
The user, of course, has a chance to contest this throttling in case that the user is not part of the botnet (IP addresses are so easy to spoof these days). So it is totally fair. All they have to do is send a counterclaim and if it is rejected (which it will), they have the option to take this to court.
Did I say a single word about identifying them by IP address, jackoff? No, so put a cock in it.
Besides, we can do more about IP address spoofing.
I think the best way to handle this is to make people somehow accountable when they participate in a DDoS, whether they do it willingly or not. Personally I think their internet access should be throttled to dialup speed for 60 days if they are conclusively found to be participating, and that 60 days starts over each time they're found participating. It will make them think twice about buying insecure shit.
Regardless of who is behind it, it's about time that we treat DDoS as the censorship that it is. I'm sick of hacktivists trying to justify bringing down major websites just because they don't like whoever runs it, while at the same time talking about how they are pro democracy and pro free speech. DDoS is the opposite of both, no matter who the target is. People who justify it because they don't like Walmart or whoever are fucking hypocritical assholes.
That could make you liable for obstruction of justice/evidence tampering if they forensically determined that your phone was programmed to delete information in such a manner. It wouldn't matter whether that information was incriminating or not, you'd still get busted, and could face at least a few years of prison time.
It would be better to just have a certain finger trigger your phone to reboot, thus requiring a password to decrypt the disk contents. They're pretty much SOL at that point since it then comes down to the "what you know" authentication factor, and "what you know" is constitutionally protected information, unlike the "who you are" authentication factor, which is what a fingerprint is, and the government can always compel you to identify "who you are" with probable cause or a search warrant.
And what are you supposed to do when you go target shooting? Owning a firearm without learning how to properly use it (and retain that knowledge over time) is not only unsafe, but retarded.
The original will be decompressed, the mark added, then recompressed and streamed to each specific subscriber to allow identification?
Not necessarily. You can probably do pixel manipulation within the DCT space of a B frame immediately preceding an I frame, and the viewer probably wouldn't notice. In fact there's a lot of material about the maths of working in the compressed domain, the IEEE even wrote up a whitepaper describing how to resize images without needing to decompress/recompress 12 years ago.
The tricky part would be detecting while it's being relayed through a pirate stream. If it's a simple remux, then I imagine it wouldn't be terribly difficult to detect, but if it's a lossy transcode, that would produce some challenges, but likely not impossible (I imagine some kind of algorithm doing multiple rounds of tests and coming up with a probability, and then taking action if that probability reaches a certain threshold.)
Perhaps the ESA should just outsource these projects to NASA since they never seem to have any success at safely landing anything on Mars, meanwhile NASA has either met or exceeded its goals in 6 out of 7 ground based Mars missions.
I keep getting friend request spam on facebook from obviously fake accounts, and when I report them, facebook responds with a message to the effect of "we reviewed the account and it is a real person", including ones with obvious spam posts like this one:
If that's the case, then why couldn't they use it to create depleted uranium ammunition? I think the military would prefer that over thermonuclear bombs.
Probably for the same reason that he didn't fly to Ecuador. Though honestly, I think his story about avoiding extradition to Sweden to avoid extradition to the US is a total load of crap. The UK is historically by far more likely to do that than Sweden is. Hell, the UK even extradites its own nationals to the US without much fanfare even if they had never set foot on US soil. Meanwhile Sweden harbors people who run torrent sites, which it seems the US prosecutes far more aggressively than spying.
It's also telling that Assange refused to even be interviewed by Swedish investigators while remaining safely in the embassy.
Apple didn't innovate anything, they basically copied what Android already had with the Galaxy Nexus years earlier. In fact, had it not been for that, Apple pay would have taken much longer to come around due to industry politics not supporting it until Google lead the way.
This is one of the things I find the most annoying about Trump's detractors. They stick labels on shit that make no fucking sense.
Is Trump bigoted? Yes. Is Trump xenophobic? Yes. Is Trump islamophobic? Yes. Is Trump sexist? Yes. Is Trump racist? No. Is Trump homophobic? No.
But yet he gets accused of the later two often anyways. (No, I'm not a Trump supporter.)
What's especially annoying about it is that most of the time when the media (and/or social media) calls "racist", it actually isn't, and you roll your eyes, which makes it so that when actual racist things happen, you tend to just want to ignore it because they're probably either making shit up or grossly misinterpreting somebody's actions. Take this for example:
I recall when that statue of Saddam was toppled - the news made it look like a spontaneous action of an angry population
It actually was -- in a sense. A marine commander was looking for a psy-ops opportunity, and found a few people beating on the statue with sledgehammers, so he capitalized on the moment. So yeah, it was both spontaneous by the locals and made to look like a bigger deal than it really was.
But you can't fault the military for that. Battles -- and especially wars -- are rarely won with weapons alone. That's just the military doing its job like it's supposed to do. And, that particular event was one of the things the military executed correctly in my opinion. Was it propaganda? Yeah, but not all propaganda is bad, and I don't believe any war has ever been won without propaganda, including popular wars like World War II.
The problems with Gulf War II mostly came from disbanding the Iraqi military and failing to secure the Iraqi borders, and those are areas where the military royally screwed up, making the war last much longer than it needed to and eventually permitting the ISIS aftermath.
Why creative? Well, this one made it all about the RNC website, and mentioned the other sites with less emphasis. Meanwhile, the original post mentioned the other sites, while mentioning the republican site with less emphasis. And it seems that few people noticed, which is somewhat unusual because dupes are usually quickly spotted by commenters.
