And Shuttleworth is surprised that, after forcing Unity on the desktop and Upstart.. on the SERVER version of Ubuntu, people question his judgement on Mir?
What's the healthy balance between good and evil? Virtue and corruption? Slavery and liberty?
There is no balance between good and evil; its a false dichotomy. Virtually the whole of reality exists at a meta-level, beyond good and evil. Its really in fictional or artificial things that good and evil exists, such as religion.
The fact that Apple can read iMessages and hand them over to the authorities is hardly surprising, especially given that we know they co-operate with the NSA. TFS leaves the last and far more interesting bit right until the end: Usernames and passwords sent in cleartext.
In other words all those people using Starbucks' free wifi are broadcasting their Apple ID and password to everyone else in range.
I read somewhere that the NSA referred to Steve Jobs as 'Big Brother'. That should be all we need to know to assume that ALL Apple products will sell their users out.
Chess is a highly complex game giving rise to many "gambits". WoW, on the other hand, is a endless series of boring tasks, with a few grand battles thrown in. That said, i've never heard of a bot being able to complete quests -- which means working in groups, solving puzzles, and battling rooms full of baddies.
One could easily integrate a bot with a leveling addon like Zygors. Eg the leveling addon could provide all kinds of visual cues on the screen for the OCR bot to find and follow.
Blizzard ban people for practically nothing anyway. Seriously. They really do ban people for nothing at all, I've had the experience myself, wasn't botting, wasn't being offensive, wasn't using gold sellers, banned. Never figured out why, was never told why.
Why on earth would you do that? If you don't enjoy playing WoW, don't play it. Don't mess it up for other people.
I used to play Eve Online and ran some mining bots. This activity was in itself way more interesting than just playing Eve Online because I am interested in the robotics and cybernetics aspects.
Running a bot like this is a lot like working with robots, virtual robots in a virtual environment. Its extremely fascinating.
The entire left wing/right wing is a bunch of horse shift false dichotomy when used in any manner outside state v. federal balance of power. It contributes nothing of value to a discussion and only serves to pull at memetic strings that serve to prevent rational discussion.
In general if you are using conservative/liberal/left/right one is saying something that involves completely talking out of ones ass as they are relying on memes instead of reasoning.
The entire point of politics as it is known in the USA, in fact in much of the 'democratic' world, is the presentation of false choices, giving people the illusion that they have some control over government. They don't; democracy only works like that on a very small scale.
Its symbiotic; the mother draws quite a bit from the fetus. I remember reading about mothers who were experiencing a lot of stress during pregnancy. After delivery the mothers had some hormone balance issues. Turned out their body was drawing hormones from the fetus during the pregnancy to help them along. Once the baby was delivered they weren't getting this 'top up' and had issues with this. It could be contributory to post-partum depression.
The key is going to be determining how they are locating your new address, and then resolving that issue. Both Amazon and Microsoft have free hosting offers that could be used to generate attacks on a low bandwidth site such as that on the average DSL circuit.
That would most likely be skype. If you use skype and have not configured it very specifically your IP address is not private and anyone with your skype id can find it. You don't have to have them on your friends list, they don't have to have you on their friends list, you don't have to accept an incoming chat from them, nothing.
Your IP address is not private if you use skype and someone has your skype id. You have to take specific precautions, you can configure skype to hide your IP or you can use a VPN.
An interesting story I read said that there came from Egypt, with the Jews, a group of people of mixed race whose fathers were Jews but whose mothers were not. It was decided that they were not real Jews and weren't fit to live in the promised land. They were kicked out and they went south and became the Arabs. This is also borne out etymologically; the Hebrew word for 'mixed race' is indeed 'arab'.
Seriously? They are imaginary people? This whole thing has been a dream? Maybe you've take post-modernism too far/
No, its the official line. I don't believe it myself, I'm just saying what the Israeli line is. I think its based on the name 'Palestinian' being derived from 'Philistine' (the other people who the Jews exterminated in order to create a homeland) which, in turn, was derived from Phoenician. The Israeli theory is that the Arabs who were living in 'their, Jewish, homeland' in the 1950s tried to pretend to have a right to live there by making a connection to the ancient historical people of the region and that, in 'fact' they were 'just Arabs' and had 'no right' to live there and hence could be just kicked out of their homes and either evicted or exterminated.
Stockpiles CW, Uses dual-purpose agents (White Phosphorus) on civilian populations.
Of course, to the Israelis Palestinians don't even exist (they are really just Arabs and should be living somewhere in the Arab world) and how can you commit genocide against a people who never existed in the first place...?
Its the old story... the people voted (or will vote) as they like, and those whoo need to be elected will be. Go back carefully over the past 30 years of US elections, or the "frre and fair" elections in Namibia, Zimbabwe or South Africa. Result for the 1st "free" elections under the Russians in Poland, 1949 - were available in partts of Europe 3 days before the election took place, with an accuracy of 3 decimal places. That's why you have de-mock-racy...
Hey, the first 'free elections' in Poland were in the 15th century. The way that the Sejm electorate was constituted (back in the old Commonwealth where they elected the 'king') meant that a bigger proportion of the population had the vote than in the UK until the 19th century.
Oh and the laws of the old Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth had it that if the elected king failed to uphold the principles of the Commonwealth, anyone had the right to rise up in arms against him.
Many people who deal with mutliuser systems require ACLs and MACs.
Yes, but the remaining question is "why does Snowden have a slide deck on SELinux?".
Perhaps it's the *only* example he could find of NSA doing good work that did not subvert Americans' security so he took it along to demonstrate fairness.
Or perhaps not. For now I'm using selinux=0 on the kernel command line and separating concerns with virtual machines.
Does having selinux=0 on the commandline mean that all selinux patches in the kernel do nothing whatsoever? Wouldn't it be better to, somehow, get a kernel with absolutely no selinux code?
I agree. Obamacare is very dangerous. Surprised theres so many liberals on slashdot, you'd think intelilectials would want to keep their money and not give it all to the govt.
Allowing the weak to survive, yeah very dangerous. Only the strong and rich should survive that way America can maintain its position of global dominance. With weaklings and the poor permitted healthcare the end would be in sight for the Global Empire.

The guy takes himself WAY too seriously.

Actually, no.

Botting is evil incarnate, and anyone that quits because they can't bot anymore is a welcome loss.
You take MMOs way too seriously.
In our culture of laziness you think the NSA is gunna bother steaming and opening letters in this day and age? Puhleeze. I'm laughing.
But yes, the use of the word encryption was improper, so I'll give you that. But I think my point was made even if I used the wrong word.
I heard that the Stasi had factories filled with machinery specifically designed to open and reseal letters IN BULK.
Something I've often wondered is if corporations are legal persons how come they are disenfranchised and don't have the vote...?
I mean they buy politicians and the media campaigns that get them elected, but no actual vote.

Pregnancy isn't an illness.
Exactly. It's just a parasitic relationship.

Skype makes your IP address public information.
You do NOT have to accept a skype request for someone who has your skype id to find your IP address. You just have to be using skype.
