  1. eh its a usefull tool but it needs used as only part of the puzzle. Aresting and holding someone just because they were in areas is not acceptable. now looking into them passively or useig this is a start to find more connections ,maybe..

  2. Why dose this and the "Child Porn in bitcoin blockchain" story from earlier this week feel like some government misinformation campaign?

  3. Avoid the crap on Ask Slashdot: What Should A Mac User Know Before Buying a Windows Laptop? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    One reason pc laptops get a bad rep is the good deals are full of crapware. Pay a bit extra for a Microsoft signature edition (usually less then $100 more then same hardware) but these have ZERO crapware and have had extra driver testing.

  4. paranoid much? Its obviously they guy got a defective one. If they were trying to bug him the lights whould't have come on to tell him something was odd and it whould't have loaded all the recordings into his own account for him to see. If google wanted to use these to spy on us only a packet sniff would have been able to see the traffic it would not have made it so simple to see. Google is going nuclear on this most likely because they want to avoid any more bad press and possibly because they believe the hardware fault is wide speed enough to be a problem they don't want to deal with putting a capacitive touch surface under capacitive conducting cloth apparently was't a good idea most likely some impurity in some of the cloth or a batch of over sensitive panels that are trigging off humility in the air is most likely the problem.

  5. Eh. on Apple Sued By State Farm Over Alleged iPhone Fire (cnet.com) · · Score: 2

    If you make enough of anything with a Li-oin cell from phones to smartwatches to what ever a certain percent will go nova thats just a fact of technology . If you make them baldly (IE Note 7 ) the number that go nova will be considerable. . If state farm can prove apple did something stupid in the design/ manufacture they have case. If they don't then its a SHIT HAPPENS type event and that would insurance is for.. its like suing the architect because your house got hit by lighting unless you can prove a fault in design that makes it a lighting magnet more then any other similar size house you have no case..

  6. Re:Voluntary Contract on California Lawsuit Wants To Weaken Noncompetes (axios.com) · · Score: 1

    Look up Lochner v. New York where SCOUTS basically said state labor laws protecting workers were unconstitutional and all the fall out and abuses it cause till it was overturned by SCOTUS again later..

  7. Re:So... he was charged with reading? on Insider Trader Arrested After He Googled 'Insider Trading,' Authorities Allege · · Score: 4, Informative

    RTFA he made bank on 2 mergers last year that is wifes firm was involved in . Thats sketchy as hell. Add the searches to that and you have probable cause to do some major digging.

  8. Repeat after me.. Pricey is a Service problem... on Stream-ripping Is 'Fastest Growing' Music Piracy (bbc.com) · · Score: 1

    Well you need to find them an option where you get paid and the uses find the value. I personalty pay my monthly fee for YTred+GPM. Spotify has a free tier but i have been hearing lately its been song, ad, song, ad, ad, song ,ad.

  9. United Break Macbooks. on TSA May Recommend Stowing Laptops In Cargo For US Domestic Flights (cbslocal.com) · · Score: 1

    The amount of liability the airlines will be opening them selfs up to would be staggering. Contact of carriage or not they are looking down the barrel of so many claims the legal hours alone will kill them.,,

  10. My employer ITsec / HR has already sent out the memo that says if this takes effect go ahead and check it but till then keep it with you at all times. This is more less common sense.

  11. Costco's no dummy.. also they are know for taking cases all the way to SCOTUS. Sueing them could get very expensive for the gold company very fast.

  12. Speaking as the "Phone Guy" in IT on Some Of Hacker Group's Claims Of Having Access To 250M iCloud Accounts Aren't False (zdnet.com) · · Score: 1

    I am debating in talking my boss into a company wide email (that 90% of people will ignore) to reset iphone passwords. Or just making up a sign explaining what happened and putting out side my cube when the phones start resetting..

  13. EM drive on No, We Probably Don't Live in a Computer Simulation, Says Physicist (gizmodo.com) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Personally the fact that recently we have found the EM drive may actually work says were are in a simulation. We just found a bug in the physics engine. That or we need to rethink many of our basic assumptions of physics.

  14. Re:definitions? on The Videogame Industry Is Fighting 'Right To Repair' Laws (vice.com) · · Score: 1

    because then they whould have the play by the same rules for there own repairs.. It apple tired this and then told users they had to buy a new $800 iphone for cracked screen or a broken button. even at apple store the user revolt would be massive.. Non serviceable works for something like airpods but not an iphone..

  15. Re:so what about all my old devices? on Old-school Wi-Fi Is Slowing Down Networks, Cisco Says · · Score: 2

    Or Get the monoprice branded version for $10 and get in in a few days.

  16. my ideas on How Can Nintendo Recover? · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Short term #1 slash the price of the WII-U down to $149 with a AAA pack-in game. #2 Launch a monthly sub service as a sort of virtual Netflix/game fly You get X game credits depending on price of sub running from 5.99 to 29.99 a month. The credits can be used to rent games from everything that can get licences form and emulate nes all the way to current WII-U titles. nes games being low # creidts and WII-U games being so many that a user needs to be on one of the higher tier plans to get even one. Once you "Rent" the game its your till you release it that unlocks the credits to be used again with say a 1 week min timeframe to keep people from constant cycling and to make the higher tiers worth wild. Nintendo pays the publishers a % of the sub fees depending on how many rentals are active at a time. Nintendo will louse money on hardware but will make it up in sub fees in theory and people will buy disks of WII-U games the want to keep long term (or just buy like current e-store works) Long Term Accelerate work on the next gen. aim for a 4-5 years for now for the next Home console. Work with EA, and other game devs to make a machine they want to work on. The next Xbox PS are 6-7 years away most likely So in 4-5 years would be a great time to keep a jump on the cycle. Aim for 60+FPS and 4k. 4k is showing promise now we already are looking at sub 1 grand 4k tvs now in 4-5 years they should be generally adorable and will make 720p/1080 Xboxone and PS4 look like dog food by then.

  17. Well that explains the monster credit. on Surge In Online Orders Overwhelms UPS Christmas Deliveries · · Score: 1

    I had a prime package (xmas gift) get delayed by USPS screw up for the upteeeth time i opened a ticket to ask them to please stop trying to use post office or smart post its gets delayed an extra day or 2 50% of time lately.
