yeah, pretty much this. Fins wouldn't work well because they'd have to readjust their position constantly as the bullet rotates. Considering the speed at which they rotate, it'd make much more sense to just mess with the internal weight distribution of the bullet.
GIT, imho, is no more complicated or confusing than any other scm system. I've used svn, mercurial, and git quite a bit, and found git and hg to be the easiest to work with, with svn coming in a distant 3rd...
I've never heard of this. They seem to offer a lot of pretty cool premade linux boxes, and their options for downloading various VM formats and usage directly in AWS are really unique. Thanks for the link.
Someone should ask him to list all 100 of his ways it could present an officer safety issue.
I can name a few reasons that speed traps present a civilian/driver safety issue...
Let's be honest here: Police traffic fines have almost nothing to do with safety anymore. They're about income for whatever governmental organization the police represent.
Honestly, if you just want to get a site with a few pages up for a client without a ton of money to spend, wordpress is the perfect solution. It takes mere minutes to set up a wordpress blog and install a theme, then just customize the images/content and you're done.
I think Wordpress is pretty horrible under the cover, but in the realm of "it just works," it's hard to beat for simple web sites.
I can't tell if you're intentionally being ironic or not, considering the vast majority of ISP offerings in any given area of the US are essentially monopolies.
The fact remains that regardless of their will, NK doesn't have the physical or technological means by which to hack sony and offload hundreds of TB of stolen data...
About 25% or more of my phone's time in-use is in-call. While there are quite a few people who use calling as a minor feature, there are plenty of us who use a phone for calling very regularly.:-)
More like based on "convenience." True professionals (unlike the government agencies in question) have come forward several times with what effectively amounts to proof that NK couldn't possibly have hacked Sony. The government is simply using this as a tool to get more leverage against NK. Can't say I blame them, because "deception and manipulation" is the name of the game in government/politics, but it's still just BS.
I mean...when the hacker "organization" comes out and says "we're not north korea," and starts making fun of the FBI for arriving at that conclusion...you can probably bet it's not NK.
No, they couldn't have done anything worse. They control a huge botnet and they just pointed it at PSN and XBL. They didn't "hack" anything, and this has nothing at all to do with security. It was just a troll move.
Yeah, pretty much. Watch Dogs doesn't look nearly as good as plenty of PC games out right now, and runs worse than most.
This is nothing more than a deliberately handicapped, badly ported console game. The author is being a shill for the XBone, but the truth of the matter is that he's hiding Ubisoft's dirty downgrade of the game.
PCs were capable of far more than these machines a year before they were released. Now the comparison is just a bad joke.
It has nothing to do with the cloud. It could have been any un-managed hosting.
The fact that they went with un-managed hosting in the first place is what really screwed them. If they had a real support team they could turn to, steps could have been taken to keep this from happening as soon as the DDOS started, and they would have had "offsite" or at least "offline" backups.
This happened because it appears that code spaces had some knee-jerk reactions and didn't think through how they were handling this (like changing the password before making sure there weren't other methods of access already established). They should have straight-up called amazon, explained what was going on, and paid for support for amazon put access to their account and instances on lockdown until the situation was resolved. Shoulda, woulda, coulda though...
The problem is, the attacker called godaddy personally. As part of the account credential reset process, they probably would have completely removed two-factor authentication from the account over the phone to allow him to regain control of things.
Godaddy would have just removed the 2nd factor for the same reason they handed over the "1st" factor. Hiroshima pretended he was the user, who has lost the ability to log in. They would have just reset the password and removed two-factor authentication from the account after the identify was "verified."
Two-factor probably wouldn't have helped here. They reset the account credentials, assuming the owner lost the ability to log in. That would have included resetting any "2nd factor."
I don't think any action on the user's part would have helped any of this other than maybe his comment about the TTL on the MX record.

It probably compares pretty well when you consider the speed at which water flows on mars... :-P

You could pretty much modify that statement to apply to any of the major phone OS developers. It's all dirty. Pick your poison.

Ouch. Overestimating my age by a good amount there. ;-)
Google is a thing, btw.

wiping out a phone's ability to make phone calls, for instance (8.0.1, iPhone 6), is somewhat of a faux pas
Somewhat? Sounds more like "the biggest faux pas you can make where a phone is concerned." :-P

Well, I've been looking for like 5 minutes and already found this gem:

Yes, I'm sure he's very upset at the rejection by all 10 people who use Gentoo.
I used to use MIUI when I had a compatible android device. I absolutely loved it. Google themselves should take some design ques from them...
The passenger is to blame because the airline threatened legal action over something that wasn't illegal?
Passenger is an idiot, SWA was criminal.

I take it you're not the kind of person to donate to OSS projects, then?

Names maybe. :P
