If you know the internals of the browser you are running in, you can try to fetch addresses from fields. Think about it, javascript does pass references around. If you know enough to know where a variable holding an address is stored in comparison to some array that is embedded before it, you can try and go out of that array. Is it possible? I dont know, but are you sure it is not?
From what I understand, OSes can update themselves to protect from this bug, and it is also a very low level bug that cannot be fixed easily. How is this possible?
Also, if intel can update processor firmware that easily, what prevents malware from doing the same?
Won't there be people who decide that fixing this is not worth the slowdown? After all, if it is ran on an internal machine where users can't cause a buffer overflow or provide code, why should there be a risk?
A corporation can have their life, liberty, and property taken away through due process just like an individual
A dying human can't just resurrect under another name, a corp can.
Which also allows you to sue those corporations.
Our current legal system gives an advantage to those with more money.
take your property unjustly
Sorry, suing someone for millions for sharing a song is unjust. I agree it is legal, it just means that the law, due to currption, is straying away from justice.
I would expect my government to protect my rights and ensure that any retaliation was just and lawfu
So on one hand, libertarians don't trust government. On the other hand, they expect their government to protect one's rights?
Some of the left (who used to be called Liberal) in my country (Israel) is now working with religious groups to increase gender segregation, supposedly in order to fight against sexual harassment. In the past, leftist/queer parties used to be place where there was lots of sexual freedom. Here in Israel, right now, right wingers are somehow more sexually liberal than leftists.
I got the impression that something similar is happening in the US too.
How come a corporation can be considered a group of individuals that shares a common goal and a country can't? Also, current law allows corporations to sue you bankrupt, which will lead to violence being used to take your property away from you.
Idk, maybe I'm saying it because I am coming from a small country, but I would rather get in trouble with my country (Israel) than with a global company that is trying to bankrupt me all over the world. Israeli mossad assasins still have a lower success probability than international law.
Define antisemitism. I don't think that people should be prosecuted because of whatever is in their bloodstream, including jewish descent. However, I do think it is OK to judge people by their choices. For example, if someone chooses to take his baby to a religious cleric without any medical training who will cut his penis and then suck in the wound, then yes, I think it is ok to criticize him, and maybe even to abolish the practice since it is child abuse.
If that's antisemitism in some PC land, then so be it. In the past the word antisemitism used to refer to people who wanted to abuse and brutalize anyone who is of Jewish descent, not to people who have legitimate criticism against Jewish religion.
Note: most of my criticism here against Jewish religion can likely be said for Islam too, in fact, the reason that I dislike Jewish religion is because I find it very similar to Islam. The main difference between them is that Islam missionary while Jewish religion settles for abusing only its own people.
And now you are talking religion, you designate some group as evil "government" while allowing other groups to behave exactly the same. Sorry, in my eyes, a corporate dictator or a mob dictator is just the same as a government dictator. Hell, I suspect that in the future government dictators may actually be easier to replace than the corporate ones.
Why the fuck did this get (+1)? Is "jew hating" the new blood libel? Hell, in Israel I see it used against anyone who criticizes jewism, including people who are holocaust survivors or their descendants.
According to your logic: - When corporations regulate social media, it becomes a branch of the corporation. - When nobody regulates social media, it becomes a branch of bots and spammers.
It's funny, my history classes always told me that Nazis took over because economy was shit and there was street violence, not because there was censorship on hate speech.
Current forms? Your assumption that United States and Europe are the same form is strange to me. Also, it seems like the popular view in the united states is that there's no such thing as "too much capitalism".
So what Frankenstein wanted to be was something more like a wizard: not someone who advances knowledge through sharing, but someone whose possession of ancient and secret knowledge confers power on himself.
So Frankenstein wanted to use patents, DRM, and code obfuscation?
Funny, throughout history, there were also many parents and grandparents that claimed "history repeats itself" or "there's nothing new under the sun". These people were proven wrong over and over again.
IMHO, The only thing wrote about these articles is that they should be written as "AI is going to take our jobs and most people will be condemned to death by a rich elite". The danger isn't technology, it is capitalism.
In Israel it was just this cool show about kids with superpowers fighting polluters, which were classic villains at the time. Israeli politics is quite diferent from US politics, so as long as these guys are not saying we should accept arabs or talk about Israel or jewism or against conscription, all of us can just quietly can consider them as unpolitical as the thunder cats or any other superhero group.

This is how the OS update works. How come intel are saying this is their update?

I am 32 and I remember how liberals were pro sex. When i try to explain it to younger people they think i am making it up.
To me it is possible, and indeed I only work at startups. To people above 50, it can be more difficult.
And you think religious jews dont?

1) The person paying you appreciates that you aren't trying to lock them in.
If the company is big enough, the person paying you doesn't see as human, but as another machine in the process.

I bet that fanatics (fanatic capitalists in this case) always like to pretend there are only two options and no middle roads.

Ok, then let's switch to all the war propoganda comics instead.

How wonderful is the libertarian way of thinking, where if a corporation is comitting fraud, the government is still the main culprit.
