Camouflage netting seems to be a biggy. The Anchorage, Alaska DEA got a $26,000 radar evading camo net system for some bizarre reason. Perhaps they're fighting an onslaught of radar equipped meth labs hidden in Polar Bear dens above the Arctic Circle. Who knows.
Night vision systems are also popular. That makes sense, but boy am I jealous.
If it has a person's name and anything that HIPAA defines as medical information (anything with a diagnosis code, essentially), it is a potential violation. Most insurance information would qualify unless it's just cost data.
This. And consider that it may well have been taken out on a bunch of physical drives rather than the Internet. Pretty much everyone is saying this has some component of physical access - likely from a disgruntled employee. If the person or persons downloaded a couple of hundred GB every day to some hard drives, likely no one would notice. So it likely didn't happen all at once.
IF this is true, it makes the timing suspicious for NK involvement. If this had been ongoing for say, 6 months, it was well before the Kim could get his panties in a bunch over the Interview. But what do I know?
With the advent of IoT, it would be a fucking field day for spooks from NSA --- nothing, and I repeat, NOTHING in our daily lives will escape the watchful eyeballs of NSA
So, instead of Freedom Fries, we get Terror Toast?
No, it is of interest to people interested in the history of the personal computer. You may think that anyone using an Apple product has a trust fund and spends their days at Starbucks but to deny that Apple had an important part in shaping the personal computing world is foolish.
Your post is really off because the vast majority of the stereotypical Apple fan haven't a clue what happened in the early years of the company. I rather doubt they have any idea that there was an Apple product before the iPod.
There is a plain and simple fact: Nuclear Fission is too dangerous, especially in the hands of short-sighted, rather unwise human beings. It's a naive toy that produces wast amounts of heat, small amounts of incredibly long-term dangerous waste and a little electricity on the side.
Anything more complex than a dull rock is too dangerous for us short sighted, unwise humans. It hasn't stopped us in the past and likely won't stop us for a long time to come.
The current maintenance nightmare of securing networked devices is already overwhelming (me) and the effects of being hacked are already incredibly expensive. I'm not sure the value gained from IoT is worth it.
It's only a problem if you care. Just sit back, relax, let us worry about security.
Sit back, it's OK, really it is. Would you like a nice message? There's an app for that you know.
In the Days Before The Internet that's exactly how you got a paper. You wrote a letter, postcard and eventually a fax asking for a reprint (or preprint if you were actually in the field and knew about it). The author mailed (remember that system?) you a physical copy that was professionally printed on shiny paper (at least until they ran out).
Then email came along and they emailed you a PDF which was actually cooler and easier. Until your University's domain got caught in their spam filters. Oh well, there is always the fax machine.
Dr, James Watson is an arrogant (reasonably intelligent) prick who managed to be at the right place at the right time. Both of the other co discoverers of the helix (Francis Crick and Rosealind Franklin) both went on to storied careers in research, in Franklin's case despite dying of cancer at age 37). Watson went on to be a gadfly and generic asshole.
I've met both Watson and Crick. Francis Crick, aside from his drive and intelligence was incredibly polite, well mannered and fun to be with. Watson was an arrogant ass.

If you can see ads on the Internet, you're doing it wrong.

Oops.

Pro tip #2 - Understand what you are talking about.

It think you need to adjust your humor detector. The radiation must have miscalibrated it.
Does anyone know if that motorcycle woman is single?
Sort of redefines 'hot chick', it does.
Since you got upmodded, you might want to see if that link is correct.
"An error has occurred"
Which could also be pretty funny depending on how you view the thread.
APK? Is that you?
You're off target again, son.
OK, ad-entitiem then.
No, too close to Eminem or just M&Ms.
ad hominem it is.
Well, that explains thing. The OP is 16 years old.

Hi! I'm from $InsertFavoriteBoogymanHere!
I just pwned your system from a coffee shop in $InsertFavoritePrefix_STAN.
Thanks for making my day!
Now you need five while collar workers to secure your blue collar destroying system.
Progress as promised!
, fuck you nature.
Careful there boy, capitalization is important. You get the entire ecosystem after you, you're in trouble.
Except we're talking about Nature here. If your library doesn't have a subscription to Nature, somebody needs a clue by four.

It ain't just about you, Peachy. It's about the other guy.
