logic fails you. these cyber attacks are preventable by proper security practices - the internet is a hostile place and there is no excuse for laziness in security by IT people. Do you keep your money stacked on the sidewalk in front of your house overnight, or do you make some effort to keep thieves from easily snatching it? your attitude is the problem we in IT face
more accurately, it checks for parameters of any ssh connection *with root privileges*. everyone see the problem there? every owner of every machine that fell to the n. korean attack richly deserved what they got. piss poor security will bite one in the ass.
not grotesque at all, the appearance is often part of the intended content. In fine literature, there are examples of times the author uses italics or bold face or even a horizontal rule for a purpose; it is not for web designer dweebs following fashion of the moment to dictate or control that.
and main characters got killed, quite often. humans did not live in original star-trek utopia, but lived in dystopia ruled by power and money grubbing hedonist scum (same shit, different century). main characters were not heros but dirtbag anti-heros.
the UN's IPCC used U of East Anglia's numbers, look it up, great BBC interviews exposing the follies
My memory is excellent, been following this climate change study since 1990, and the flip-flopping has been enormous: climate change will cause floods, in a year of flooding. climate change will cause droughts, in years of drought; climate change will cause stronger hurricanes, in period of strong hurricanes, etc. but now they say climate change will cause ever so much moreso all of the above
or, alternatively, none of those things will happen. Since the mid 90s billions of dollars and euros and yen have been wasted on climate models, most of which have been utterly useless. Even this year major factors have been discovered that render all previous models void, and the "climatologists" cherry-pick, cook the books, from the pile of models after the fact to try to justify their existence. This pseudo-science should have its plug pulled, it serves no purpose other than pumping "cap and trade" scams.
not really, a mainframe of S390 era had very few cores. mainframe architecture isn't about a bunch of systems network connected all running separate OS instances. It's instead a "star architecture" of processors connected to "peripheral processing units" to offload IO work.
Radiation damage isn't cumulative. If it were, you would see greater incidences of cancer You are committing the logical fallacy of asserting the consequent, without a shred of proof for anything you say. Moreover, death is not the only possible result of radiation exposure.
those who have worked with oracle for decades know they have been guilty of prematurely pushing their own garbage filesystem/volume management wares, even causing customers to lose or have corrupted data.
since the weapon in question could be powered for *MONTHS* of continous operation by the fuel capacity of the ship, practically without any limit in any combat scenario, I'm hereby labeling you a picayune cretin, which also has a meaning.
with 4,600 nautical mile range and 20MW of power output, I'm pretty sure the powerplant of the Ponce can supply plenty of juice for a tens of kilowatts laser for a loooooong time
99.5% of our military spending is on things which will be utterly useless in such a case, I've counting the $4 Billion spent on nuclear weapon maintenance as potentially useful.. Decades spending a tenth of the defense budget on pure science (physics, chemistry, biology) would be the better investment for such a future.
I probably make more money and pay more taxes than two average slashdotters put together, professionals that are half a century old are generally like that....
we've caused many times more (hundreds of thousands) of Iraqi deaths than Saddam did. those people never attacked us. The villagers and goat herders of Afghanistan did not attack us either, Al Qaeda and the "Taliban" that hosted Bin Laden left there long ago and fled to Pakistan and other parts.
Now we are not "winning" in Afghanistan, and are negotiating with the Taliban groups because we are failing to "bring Democracy" (at gunpoint, which of course is doomed effort)
hah, think of what the last 75 years have brought us: nuclear weapons, ICBM, satellites, lasers that can shoot down aircraft, rail guns, bioweapons, genetic engineering......now you're talking about a species centuries advanced from ours that can not only travel interstellar space but wage war on that scale? wouldn't matter if we had a military or not, we'd be dead meat before we even knew we were being attacked.

the internet is how governments can watch everyone, for the time when they need to target someone
Do not allow a horrid little man to sit in a room while robots collect checks for him.
ah, high frequency trading; yes, let's put those parasites to the flames.
that would be the CPC climate predictions for over a decade, even the one to be released is backpedalling on core predictions

HTML5 allows blink functionality to be done via CSS3 animations, so they can never take the away from us!

he's in your bathroom mirror, as you think the US Navy has no means to maintain systems on that 40+ year old ship
desktops connect to linux and bsd servers for the internet. battle over

no, oracle *wrote* the btrfs project so their view might be a tad biased, self-blinded and self-serving

the oceans are connected; ocean carbonic acid concentration is going up globally
what are you blathering about, the wars of choice waste so much money the space budget (and all other science combined) is of no consequence
we do have the cash to do science, and we'd have a lot more not spending hundreds of billions every decade to slaughter innocents
why would serious business use shaky unstable things like btrfs? The "well tested" is relatively old, yes.
