  1. Re:Will that actually help? Also, Wi-Fi on 150 Filmmakers and Photojournalists Call On Nikon, Sony, and Canon To Build in Encryption (zdnet.com) · · Score: 1

    No it doesn't. If you are so fucking concerned about encryption then download the files onto your computer and encrypt them there. You can do that today.

    Wouldn't the corrupt police ask you (politely of course) for your encryption key? Or is the thinking here that they wouldn't take that step? If people are so concerned about that, they could transfer the data to an encrypted storage drive and not leave it in the camera. Seems silly to build it into the camera itself.

  3. Re:still forced to use amazon device or PC to view on Netflix Gets New Global Rival: Amazon Prime Video Now Available In Over 200 Countries (mashable.com) · · Score: 1

    Amazon does allow their app on Android TV devices. But they don't port their app to every device, but they hit the most common ones (Samsung, Sony). If you really wanted to you could install the APK to your TV device and see if it worked.

    They have an actual driver, and an engineer in the other seat watching the guy drive and who can also take over when the car is about to crash.

    Very large surge? You mean like a few isolated incidents? Give us all a break.

  6. Europe is so far behind the US in wireless technology it isn't even funny. They don't even produce any phones. So backward!

  7. No they didn't on Uber Self-Driving Cars Hit the Streets of San Francisco (go.com) · · Score: 1

    No they didn't. These cars actually have TWO drivers in them. Stop with the self-driving cars hype. They don't exist.

  8. The US is #1 in the world in wind: http://www.awea.org/MediaCente...

    We just don't have offshore wind production (not really needed)

  9. America has the highest number of wind turbines in the world. We are way ahead in renewables compared to anyone. We just don't have offshore ones.

  10. I know people think government surveillance is new, but it isn't. In the 1800s the government routed all their telegraph lines through their offices so they could monitor them. Based on that monitoring, they arrested many journalists that they said were against the state. And *gasp* they didn't have a court order, or any oversight. Anything you send over a network is monitored. Anything. Networks are not secure. Never will be either, simply because the purpose of a network is to share information between endpoints. And with access anyone can be an endpoint on the network.

  11. ...but I am unprofessional, so I guess I ain't getting a job at IBM.

  12. They are supposed to be protecting the people they serve, not "their team". Why should they be ashamed of attending conference talks?

  15. It says "Batteries" in the headline. DAMN, you just got OWNED sucka, 1990s style!

  16. So since the situation is so loose, they should tighten it up?

  17. This is nonsense. I buy batteries for my Apple products all the time online and they all work fi

  18. Google on Malware Found In the Firmware of 26 Low-Cost Android Models (bleepingcomputer.com) · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Google needs to get a grip on Android, somehow. They are ultimately responsible for this mess. Stop fucking around with self-driving cars and do your job.

  19. I said a long time ago that there will never be commercially available self driving cars on the roads. There is no such thing as "AI" or "autonomous cars", just marketing. We aren't even close to the level of technology required to build them. And now that Moore's Law is ending, we may never see it unless we come up with some other breakthrough beyond digital processors. Google investors are the winners here. That was a money pit.

    This is baloney. Divestment has no effect. If someone pulls out of an investment by selling, someone else is buying. Oil stocks have been going up due to promised production cuts. Fossil fuels are what drives the worlds economy.
