And thus, this is exactly my problem with "JPEG ONLY"... The camera does quite a bit more than just apply white balance and compress down to a JPEG from the sensor RAW data. Tonal curves, lens correction, sensor correction, sharpening, and a whole bunch of other processing happens during this conversion process. Most of what can be done in Lightroom can be saved as presets (using other tools) and loaded directly into the camera to be applied to a JPEG automatically on capture. Is this then wrong, because the camera did it rather than the user in the end? The results are still the same.
Did you care to even ready the fucking summary? Just wondering. Because: "[speeding tickets] were issued when the speeding rules didn't apply". So, yes, the computers did in fact lie about the speeding by processing the wrong set of rules for the given time period.
It could also be an indication of how hard it is to find vital information on a particular language. Search for anything in the Win32 API, and the MSDN will be the top result pretty much every time. Search for anything in the PHP language and php.net will be the top result pretty much every time. Other languages are not even remotely as lucky. I personally find that finding even basics of other languages takes a few Google searches and several posts in various StackOverflow boards to get decent answers.
In theory, yes. But they started with music streaming services first. Now they're doing it with video. Check the details, when this service is enabled, it forces content to 480p resolution at lower bitrates. Now, why would they want to do this? Firstly, this is actually overall reducing bandwidth. Secondly, it allows them to have a very steady and predictable usage pattern of their network. Browsing web pages or doing other things online are generally very spiky between needing lots of content, then idling for a while (while the user is reading or viewing images for example). Music and videos traditionally have larger buffering windows to deal with these lag spikes in the network. Now that bandwidth consumption can more easily be predicted, it is in theory easier to deliver said bandwidth to everyone on the network (such as QoS prioritization)
Does it support smart card based authentication? This is one of the main reasons I'm on PuTTy now is because my company switched to using USB based smart cards and passwordless authentication.
PuTTy. It isn't a "terminal emulator" in the sense that it is the terminal for the local machine. It is used for connecting to all those remote headless servers out there. I'm personally locked into Windows on my workstation for the time being due to other Windows only software requirements, so this is a good bridging application to access all the Linux, FreeBSD, vSphere, and SmartOS machines that I work with.
Seconding this. In the companies I work with, this is the solution we've put into place. Windows PCs use mapped network drives for personal folders and shared folders to a server. The server runs ZFS as its file system. Simple cron scripts on the server itself automate the process of creating snapshots and doing send/receive with other servers both inside and outside the building. These additional machines also store a certain number of snapshots, so we can recover previous versions of files easily. ZFS + Samba 4 also appears to Windows as "Volume Shadow Copy", so snapshots also become browsable directly by Windows clients for the more technical users who know how to work with it.
The great thing about this strategy is that 1) you're not installing a single thing on client machines, just an initial config for mapped network drives. 2) next to nothing to install on the server machine, just ZFS and Samba (which both come with FreeNAS if you want a very simple drop-in solution)
Things are honestly no better here. Living just outside of Seattle, WA, doing a trace route to Amazon's anycast DNS servers routes through some really bullshit routes, depending on which DNS server I query.
Seattle > Chicago > New York > London > Some random other hops in Europe > AWS Seattle > San Jose > Los Angeles > Japan > Some random other hops in South East Asia > AWS
Never mind that Seattle is Amazon's headquarters, and they have one of their primary facilities just to the south of us in Oregon.
Reported the issue to the ISP, the ISP's upstream provider, and Amazon. All three gave a "not my problem" response.
Routing tables are often fucked to hell n back, this is just par for the course of the internet.
Let's stop caring about password complexity! It is a losing game. Let's stick with simple passwords that are super easy to remember and type.
Security shouldn't be limited to a single factor. Two factor authentication is what we SHOULD be using. Something you know (the password), and something you have (some physical device). U2F is a damn perfect example of this. You can use your phone as an authenticator. You can add the authentication codes on multiple devices in case you lose the primary. These codes generate a time based sequence of numbers, so even if some MitM attach steals the entire login session details, it'll only be valid for at best ~1 minute.
On top of that, WHO would be responsible, considering the deep integration of technology today? Can you even name the number of libraries in use in an application like Chrome? Check chrome://credits/ at some point! Now, is the security flaw in the library? Or the application implementing the library? Or in some interaction between two particular libraries? Or only possible on certain hardware not present in the development studio? Many exploits in the wild today require a very sophisticated arrangement of variables to become exploitable.
Large companies would simply sick their lawyers on it, and small companies or even individual maintaining open source projects would seriously take the fall for any and all security exploits, effectively crippling and eventually killing the entire computer industry. New entities in the market would be killed off while still small and would never gain the chance to mature into larger projects or companies.
Recently, I picked up some used rack mount routers that are x86 based. Got them on eBay, plus upgraded the RAM to 2GiB, replaced CPU with one twice the clock speed and more cache, plus added larger storage. Installed pfSense on these things. Each one with upgrades was still under $100 thanks to people unloading seemly "useless" equipment on eBay!
These things are acting as more than just routers, too. Since it is FreeBSD based, there are tons of packages available. I've got nginx running on them as forward facing web servers to connect to the internal network's fastcgi services (PHP/HHVM). These boxes are doing this job beautifully right now.
So basically, this is EXACTLY what was already done back in 2009 then? Back when TKIP was broken using QoS packets to break encryption and establish MitM attacks on Wifi? So, what's new here?
Wait, it took a PhD student to figure out that broadcasting malicious signals disrupts signals on the similar wavelengths? And OMGs it effects BlueTooth, too!? Totally didn't know that two personal usage wireless communication specs would both be using unlicensed spectrum, WHO WOULDA THOUGHT!?
I can do it for quite a bit less. Just put a small piece of plastic into the door switch of a microwave so it thinks it is closed, but leave it open. Now turn it on. You can cook yourself while killing Wifi all throughout the house! [DISCLAIMER, DON'T ACTUALLY DO THIS]

Why not both!? Writing programs to farm gold in WoW all day!!

Ssssooooo, Firefox is essentially turning into Opera Browser then??
In PHP, simply run something like the following against the file and see if you get a valid result back

I just wasted some n00bs in that FPS match, y0!!!
OH SHIT, THERE WENT MY CREDIT SCORE.... but at least I scored in the game!!! (but yet to score in real life...)

Just press the red button on each and wait for their red LEDs to start blinking to pair the particles.
Or there is always BPG files, which already work on current browsers with a simple JS renderer.
