That scenario would require that there be some sort of keylogger already present and running on the compromised machine. If that's the case, then why bother with all this cloak and dagger shit? Hell, there are plenty of other routes that the data could take:
Store the data in a file on a local drive (hard drive or even USB flash drive) Transmit it over Ethernet. Transmit it over Wi-Fi. Transmit it over bluetooth. Transmit it over IRDA.
Or, my favorite, just have the machine use text to voice to shout out the user's password over the speakers. Then it's a race to see if you can login before the user can change the password.:)
- Public wireless users will be using a different IP address from the LAN/internal wireless users.
- In order to use the "Public" wireless hotspot, you will need to already have a Comcast username and password. It's not OPEN wifi, but open to other Comcast subscribers.
- "Public" wifi bandwidth will not affect the bandwidth of the home router (so says Comcast).
I don't know who the first person was to aim a laser at an aircraft, but because the pilots made such a big deal out of it, it is now very widespread. If they had just said nothing, the kids with laser pointers would have gotten bored, and returned home to shine it at the cat.
Well, then I guess it's a good thing that detection of sarcasm from print isn't reliable. So, no matter the reason, I don't think the Secret service is going to get their wish.
On another note, if someone does come up with a reliable algorithm, then the whole world can benefit from it.
He is the former CEO of a company that was formerly one of the most successful. Slashdot doesn't seem to have a sports category, so I guess that's why it's listed under "The Almighty Dollar". Even if it did, I wouldn't want to read it. This is the kind of story that is fine to be left to mainstream news outlets.
Is this article supposed to inform the Slashdot readership that curved TVs are gimmicks, or is it intended to inform the TV manufacturers that everyone else now knows that curved TVs are gimmicks?
I also enjoyed using the Thrustmaster FCS to gain an advantage over other players on Descent. At the time, it was an $80 joystick with the coolie hat 4-way switch on the top. Unfortunately, after a lot of heavy use, the stem of the hat switch was worn down when it rubbed against the body of the flight stick. During one particularly frantic game, it broke.
There are other controllers that might be worth while for playing descent, but the FCS just wasn't designed to take that kind of abuse.
How about AmeriCloud?
Seattle is the home of David Lightman, that kid in the 80's who almost started world war 3. No way, man! I don't want that guy hacking into my stuff.

Wow! I was going to say that the criminals seem to be getting smarter, but your post is evidence otherwise.
"Gee, this card can't handle a $20 charge for lunch, so I'll try to buy something MORE expensive with it...."
I don't know if I would want to wear open-source pants....
Wrap your router in tin-foil, and then ground the sucker.
Here are some facts:
- Public wireless users will be using a different IP address from the LAN/internal wireless users.
- In order to use the "Public" wireless hotspot, you will need to already have a Comcast username and password. It's not OPEN wifi, but open to other Comcast subscribers.
- "Public" wifi bandwidth will not affect the bandwidth of the home router (so says Comcast).
We need to come up with a phrase that fits what they did. Something like "Script Kiddies", but with printed books.
22 years ago, his phone would have been mounted to the wall in his house.
Of course you can! You're just looking in the wrong place. The TV's you want are labelled "Computer Monitor".
"Tetris, Shmetris!"
Maybe we can get George Lucas to digitally put Van Gogh's missing ear back into his self portrait.

Well, don't just sit there.... Tell us the story. And also, did it have a happy ending?
Likewise, who are these "Tech Worker Groups"? Why don't they organize?

Or better yet:
PC LOAD LETTERMAN

Where would you get the raw materials for printing humans?
It sounds like someone has been playing too much Mass Effect 2.
As I recall, MS Excel ships with an add-in called "audit", but it's not installed by default.
3.5" floppy disks are proven... to be horribly unreliable.... Over the course of several years.
However, for one night, I think they will do just fine.
That sounds pretty complicated. I would just install a Blackberry Enterprise Server, and that would easily control all my blackberries.
While there are so many things that can kill a human, I find it hard to believe that they are having a hard time killing humans!
Veterinarians have to euthanize animals comfortably all the time. Why not use the same drug?
