I read about an AI system a while ago that could accurately spot car theives walking around a car park, just by the way they walked.
Yes, but IIRC that was more along the lines of "This guy keeps walking up to cars, giving them an all-round inspection, peering in the window, [... etc] so he's probably a thief" (whereas a normal car owner would just walk up to their car, get in, drive off). It's not "That gate matches 'Fingers' MacDougal - get him, boys!"
Or maybe when AMD continue to gain market share, Intel will stop treating overclockers (many of whom are buying the top-of-the-range CPUs, and pushing them further than Intel do) like thieves...
Seriously though, if you RTFA, it's just one customer in this case, although the summary implies it was more - presumably because the article states that similar incidents have occurred in the past..
... that their remote access software had a default username/password built in that couldn't be disabled. A high-level Ciso executive has threatened to sue the software providers for including such a stupid 'feature' in their product
Research is now beginning into surface-to-air Tiddlywinks, and atomic Shove Ha'penny.
In other news, British scientists have abandoned their work on railguns after they found that the projectiles continually arrived an hour late. This was blamed on the "wrong sort of magnetism".
Imagine you have no pockets (e.g. you're wearing a skirt). Where do you put the card when you don't need it? What happens if you're holding it in your hand while dancing and someone 'accidentally' knocks it out of your hand?
The onus is on the licence authority to prove you do have a TV not on you to prove not.
On the other hand, they have a tendency to "forget to mention" that they have no legal right to inspect your house for TVs without a search warrant. I've heard of someone who's never owned a TV being harassed for not having a licence, and of people being sent threatening letters even though they did have a licence.
I think the point that the parent was making is something like this:
What if I patent $TECHNOLOGY, and say "I will grant an implicit (and free-as-in-beer) patent licence for $TECHNOLOGY to anyone, on the condition that their implementation must conform to my standard, without proprietary extensions.".
Would this kind of defensive licencing have prevented the Microsoft Kerberos fiasco?
Slashdot Mirror
When RMS talks about 'Free Software', he means 'Free' as in 'freedom', not 'free' as in 'costs nothing'.
One of the updates that came out last week appears in "Add/Remove Programs" as "Windows 2000 Hotfix (SP5) Q818043". Make of this what you will.

Well I'm using IPvInfinityPlusOne, so :-P to you!
Lets just hope they're not as stingy with "upload bandwidth" as they are now
A bit excessive - 640kJ should be enough for anyone!

Of course, it was at the bottom of the e-mail.
We've got warchalking, wardriving, so this would be ... er, warwar?
Applications, browser plugins ... where's my EMACS mode, dammit!

I didn't drive into those cones - they got up and ran in front of me!
What? Yes, I know I said that about the tree last week. No, I'm 100% sober ...well, maybe 87%.
It's an absence of a space station!

Fine, you pedantic bastard.
