You fool! Anyone who depends on their router for security is an idiot. You assumed that your brand new laptop would be safe when connecting to your home LAN, behind that router? What were you planning on doing when you took it to Starbucks and used their WiFi?
Security need to be built into each device in the form of a software firewall. Unneeded ports need to be closed, whether you are on a LAN or not. Once this is taken care of, you can assume that your home/office LAN is as hostile as the Internet at large. Which isn't a bad policy, seeing as how many idiots bring infected laptops or free USB drives in to work all the time.
... Boeing laid off and retired the people that understood how the pieces fit together. Modular development works fine if you have people that understand systems at a high level and you keep the lines of communication between systems integration (Boeing) and suppliers short.
That is a major fallacy in our system. Anyone can go to court. Only the criminals are found guilty.
Allowing a prosecutor (the DoJ in this case) to make cases that they find politically or financially expedient and then expecting society to believe that everyone charged must be guilty is a perversion of our system of justice. It bypasses one of the constitutionally established branches of government from carrying out its function. And it creates opportunity for massive political abuses conducted by the party in power, unchecked by the judiciary (as our Constitution intends).
The idea that "only criminals go to court" sounds frighteningly like the old Soviet system of kangaroo courts.
And its wrong when your goal is (should be) to determine the truth.
Negotiating over charges just brings wealth and access to legal representation into the equation. o the rich can get away with more than the poor can. I don't think that's the sstem of justice our founding fathers had in mind.
then the blame lies with the designers who used it: Boeing,
Boeing hasn't designed any subsystems stuff for years. I'm not even certain they have any structural people left.
Boeing produces a specification and puts it out for bid. The spec probably says: 'The battery shall not burst into flames or explode.' The implementation details are left up to subcontractors.
Perhaps. But it sure screws with your short term memory. Possibly by messing up your ability to focus. You might make detailed observations of a bug crawling across the conference room table during a meeting. But it was the meeting you were supposed to pay attention to. And now you want to commit that to long term storage?
This is why stoners are so much fun to screw with. Distract them with something and hilarity ensues.
Actually, I think this is wrong. IIRC from the last time I unlocked a phone, there is a screen where one enters an unlock code. That already seems to be provided in firmware for exactly this purpose. So nothing is getting modified.
Once the code is entered, it is stored in the phone in a location (apparently) provided for this purpose. Subsequently, each time the phone bots up, it looks at this location first rather than having to look on the carrier's SIM for a code.
Completely not what I was thinking. I was referring to Big Media and our government scratching each other's back. Period.
But since you steered the topic that way: I don't give anyone a get out of jail card just because they might play their anti semetic trump. But I wouldn't put it past our government's propaganda ministry to have done that calculus.
Clearly you have not watched practically every cop/law TV show ever made.
Clearly, you have been watching to much TV based on (a misinterpretation of) US law enforcement. What happens when the Big Guy has the ethics of the Zetas? 20 years in prison for a stinkin' tree is nothing compared to what they'll do to you if you talk.
And its not much better in the USA (of course, your intestines don't end up hanging out). But corporations don't go to prison. They live forever. And they never forget.

Nope. I don't do Windows. But this is something the Microsoft crowd should have been working on. Instead of the Metro UI.
This has never been done before in history -- literally debugging software 500 feet in the air, in front of a million people,
Why not? Boeing is trying it with their 787.

I have doupts that Thales was the primary decider of components here.
Well, I know Boeing wasn't. So it's a case of peeling back all the layers of subcontractors. Just like an onion. Tears and all.
How long does it take to charge a Tesla?

To familiarize the civilian population with the conditions of martial law.
Dumb design. The enclosure looks positively american.
I've never seen something so superficially designed from japanese engineers.
Thales is French.

Yeah. But timothy forgot.

Detection system?
Most things that will adversely affect babies do not exhibit the symptom of screaming and hollering. When the kid is howling, odds are its OK.
Panicky new parents always think they have to jump up whenever the baby howls.
Not that they listen,
Because they are sleeping through your class.
Good luck with that. Microsoft will still be stuck with custody of the retarded kid (Windows 8).

And the winner is ....
So there's probably a tie-in to the US government. I'm just not certain who is calling the shots.
There is unrest in the forest,
There is trouble with the trees,
For the maples want more sunlight
And the oaks ignore their pleas.

Found your printer on Google. Stand by for some Ebola.
No problem. Next time I make a joke about Wernher von Braun, maybe a few more people will get it.
