This and things like the today's 'worst security flaw ever' from MS, are all topics bubbling up prior to a security conference next week in SF, where pundits are surely to roast BG, one of the speakers, to a char.
The internet isn't better off because of slackard MS. They were late to the party (just like today's patch took 200 days), and they use it for their gain, with lack of concern, as usual, for the 'customer'.
Remember, a 'headline' here is what you find yourself in when you have to take a leak at a basketball game. Just because a topic is raised, doesn't mean squat that it has value to anyone.
Or you realize that putting something on the internet means that it is no longer private..... regardless of how stupid it is to say that google will leave it alone if you just ask..
Outside of the Dolly Parton look-alike 'belly warmer' model, most 'robots' that support direct human contact, in a human-like manner, will be virtual images...floating holograms that only the 'owner' can see and hear.
You'll put any face you like on them, at any time, and there will be no need for prosthetics.
Why? Because they have useless names like DSC0001.jpg and there's no metadata that says they are wedding photos.""
You mean to say you don't know the date you got married? You're in trouble.... iPhoto on OS X at least breaks them out into folders according to either last imported and/or month/year etc.. You're responsible to breaking them down further, in which case you don't search the entire drive later, you simply open iPhoto and take a short trip to your wedding folder, just like having a folder in a drawer in a cabinet in your home.
It's not really that hard, now is it? if you're dropping any files onto your drive randomly, the issue is with your basic housekeeping, not that a top level search tool seems blind to your target.
You're talking about EXIF, and the list of data there is long. Why you took the picture isn't part of it, and if you want the camera to interpret which part of the subject matter is root (noses..faces...age...sex...background..,trees...d aylight...horizon?), you've got more issues than just locating a particular photo.
I seriously doubt if anybody has a monitor bigger than my 42" HDTV-ready projection TV
We've set up far larger in the lab and for tradeshows. There are many Network Control Centers and high end users with monitors that are equally 'large'.
Want to see an outdoor example? Visit downtown Tokyo any day of the week...there is really no limit to how large a 'desktop' can or should be.
That is if you consider shooting the patrons a crime.
Note that while kicking, beating, clubing or otherwise injuring a patron is allowed, the NRA feels very strongly that any shooting should include the staff as well. Shoot fair....shoot often.
Ten years ago I was working on a multimedia project in Tokyo, with a multinational staff.
We had ten people building screens from templates, and the deliverables had to work on Windows.
I had the honor of teaching them how to use a Windows computer, and part of that included restart after restart as a result of the OS's propensity to crash. This led them to become familiar with the Windows splash screen. I took the opportunity to show them the keystroke that would bypass this screen so they could save a bit of time and go directly back to the desktop.
One of the staffers was a Chinese gentleman, who had taught college in China. He asked me what the purpose of the splashscreen was...I tried to explain it was like a commercial on TV, promoting the software, but other than that it had no use.
"Oh..." he replied... "brainwashing!"
I figured if anyone knew what this meant, he was to be believed. I smiled and he shook his head an went back to work.
Cardinal Branch runs into the Pope's study, with its high domed ceilings and white graceful arches, terribly excited..."Calm yourself, my son...what is so important?"...says JPP II to the wide-eyed Cardinal.
"Your Holiness!!! I have such amazing news...but it is perhaps a 'good news', 'bad news' thing, I'm not sure how to tell you!?"
"Good news first, Cardinal Branch....always good news first..." replies the Pope.
"Amazing!! Christ just called and He is back on Earth!!" replied the Cardinal..."That is good news! Praise mankind's future...and the bad?" implores the Pope...
"Bad news is....(gulp).... He called from Salt Lake City!!"
Slashdot Mirror
The only downside is that it appear to only be available in China right now
Downside for you, maybe. No downside for anyone that lives/works where these devices are used.
You sounded angry, that much I'll give you! :)
Simple.
Same way Starbucks does...get you in a seat, and sell you stuf...
:)
I might be, but my '36 Gibson L-10 knows better....
Best 'strangling a ca'' cover I've heard this week.... I'm serious man, that Martin has to be in some L5 pain.
Do NOT quit your day job, if you have one, that is.

Did you duck when that joke went over your head, or are you more tight than anyone could possibly imagine?
...sad when someone misses a joke that bad...maybe hand-puppets and a whiteboard next time.

Google will leave you right the fuck alone
All it takes is one cross-link from a site that links, and a number of hits, and google will advertise the cross-link, robots.txt or not.
Living in the past...get out more. The Sony news has been public and old news for some time now.

Mirror, mirror, on the wall....
broadcasting that I have access to them really doesn't change much
:)
You think someone knowing you have them is the issue?
Try telling your boss you just shared that info here, and see how long you keep your job...what a marroon
one wonders just how soon CRT based TVs will become an antiquity
Sony got out last year...Samsung gets out this year. Been there, know that...
I personally have access to roughly 10,000 credit card numbers
Since you've found it necessary to share that information with the world, your access has been removed and you can now proudly proclaim...
I personally had access to roughly 10,000 credit card numbers
...for me this is the first *real* use of the Internet in a meaningful way.
Step back from the keyboard for a bit...you need a good slap.
'bout the same value as the The Useless Topic Wack Jobs...and in this case we have both.
What is this...'Point Out the Obvious' Monday?

still trying to pump a defunct business model...
No argument there. If the music industry wasn't go greedy, they'd have a better chance of sticking around too.
What, you never saw 'The Fifth Element'? C'mon...get in the game already :)
Besides, tobacco farming and the fountain of youth have already been used as excuses to leave home...
Where you been? Doe the phrase 'oldest profession' ring a bell?
:)
The porn industry knows well how to make a buck on the internet, while the music industry is just learning how to tie it's shoes.
Besides, the average career of a pop star is no match for a veteran in the porn industry
really doubt the two rovers would be interfering with one another if they were in the same area,
Mine? Mine! Mine.....mine!mine!mine! mine!mine!mine!mine!MINE!mine!
