  1. Uncontrollable? on US Navy Tests 3D Printing Custom Drones On Its Ships · · Score: 0

    Flight tests revealed some of the potential problems, most of which were associated with operating the drone rather than the printing itself, Jaeger said. 'Even with a small amount of wind, something this small will get buffeted around,' he said. They also had to figure out the logistics of launching a drone from a ship, getting it back

    Shouldn't they be fixing this first?

  9. Embarrassment on UK Campaign Wants 18-Year-Olds To Be Able To Delete Embarrassing Online Past · · Score: 1

    Embarrassment is mostly a social thing . The individual does not define embarrassment . He is conditioned by the society to feel embarrassed in certain situations. Instead of wiping the internet , an effort to change social perspective seems to be the sane and more permanent thing to do .

  15. Standards on Hacker Set To Demonstrate 60 Second Brinks Safe Hack At DEFCON · · Score: 2

    The good thing about standards is that we have so many of them to choose from.

  16. "A large portion of the attack is about escaping out of the kiosk mode that is put in place on the safe, in order to prevent someone from accessing the backend system,"
