FTFY! Boobs are great for making notes on, although it's a little bit harder to read them without being noticed. However, when the teacher notices you, you probably can do anything, unless you're a guy of course.
When the guys share these hacks with the companies ahead of time, they tend to get sued or get their presentations cancelled by the vengeful corporations. They're better off not disclosing these things ahead of time.
Plus in this case, what could Onity have done? They cannot create an update that is automatically downloaded and installed over the next month onto those locks, like with Windows or Flash. If they knew about this before, and had a proper fix for it, then they would have to communicate it to thousands of hotels, and that would result in disclosure as well.
In five years time, Iran will have the best SCADA cyber security engineers in the world. I bet they will give this full priority. And when they have these skills, they have the skills to attack as well. Then think of what will happen. The US should better be sure that they are able to *destroy* those machines, so Iran cannot use them to test, otherwise... And how about Germany and Italy - are they still delivering systems to Iran? I wouldn't be surprised!
This is quite annoying. When I bought my macbook three years ago, it had a 160GB harddrive. If I wanted to upgrade to 250GB I had to pay €130. I went to the nearest computershop and bought a 320GB drive for less then €100. That means I had a spare 160GB drive as well. The same goes for memory. I buy it via ebay in the US, for half the price. I hope there will be shops who will replace these parts for normal prices.
My 20 dollar white sonys from walmart are excellent. Dont know the model # off hand. But like I said 20 bones walmart.
I've used AKC 420 headphones, Philips earbuds, Sony, now Sennheiser earbuds. All around €40, the latest Sennheiser €50. I've tried cheaper Panasonic earbuds (€30), but the cables were really bad, inflexible, and the sound quality was bad. I've noticed that you really get value for money. So €40 headphones are better than €30 ones, etc. For earbuds, the cables are important. And not that they should be super expensive oxygen free and stuff, but when you put them away, the cables get messed up, and it should be easy to get them apart. The Sennheiser have rubber cables, and they work great. The Sony had flat cables, which was even better. The Philips had a neck band. This is great for my ipod nano touch, which is small and light. But it's bad for an ipod touch or iphone. The cable is too short then.
The Sennheiser has less bass than the Philips, but I like them more, because they have much more detail and I hear things I haven't heard before. The AKC was my favorite, because of the most comfort, until I bought a new backpack. I travel a lot and put the headphones in and out my bag, and the ear cushions wear out in this new backpack. I always have two or even three headphones with me. One in my jacket, one or even two (the older ones) in my backpack. If I change jacket and forget to take out my headphones, I still have a backup.
You can spend up to $200 and even more on a headphone. That's up to you. I think the quality improves, but I don't know if it's worth the money. Not for me at the moment.
Most likely, that was the module that fulfilled Flame's main purpose, since researchers still aren't sure exactly what it does, which means now they might never know.
I bet those guys at Kapersky (and those in Iran as well) are smart enough to make images of infected machines, probably in different states. Then you can restore them as many times as you want.
Said one of the most freakishly gifted men in history. Kinda like Armstrong or Indurain saying that if everyone would just train like them, everyone could win 5+ Tour de France races in a row. There ARE limits - the trick is to have a realistic assessment of them.
And right there you put a limit on it! Not all people will be able to win 5 Tour de France races or even one, but just by comparing yourself to someone like Bruce Lee or Lance Armstrong you create a limit.
Don't paint everyone with the brush that you've been painted with, some have less options.
It's all in the mind

No matter how you spin it, the fire bombing of Dresden and subsequent incineration of 250K civilians was an atrocity that should not have happened, nearly every historian agrees it made no military sense. Face facts, it was an immoral and spiteful target by anyone's standards, you just need to grow up and accept that we can be (and often are) every bit as 'evil' as our percieved enemies, (and I offer the fact that you consider Dressden a 'valid target' as proof of that last claim).
How do you look at Hiroshima and Nagasaki then? Those bombs ended the war over there, but harmed many innocent civilians.
But the bus analogy is still wrong, because the entire point of the article is that the mosquito is not smashed by the raindrop. Instead the mosquito simply merges into and falls with the drop, then escapes before the raindrop hits the ground.
So, it's more like phasing through the front of an oncoming bus, landing comfortably in one of the seats, then escaping out the rear before the bus plows into a concrete wall.
*sigh* I don't understand these bus analogies. Can someone please give me a car analogy instead?
It's like a raindrop that hits a Yugo. The raindrop merges into the Yugo. The Yugo stops because the electricity fails. You get out, a little wet because of the leaking roof, but still OK.
Maximum Prophet, for your information, the Earth rotates around the Sun.
Being behind the Sun may not matter here, if the effect was strong and _long_ enough to elevate C14 levels.
Wrong! Back then, the universe rotated around the earth. Everybody knows that. So it could be perfectly true back then, that this supernova hid behind the sun.
I am very grateful for this US Coastguard evading tech....
Really? "OpenROV 2.2 is 300mm long, 200mm wide, and 150mm tall. It displaces approximately 2.5kg of water and has a theoretical depth capability of approximately 100m." Yep... So much better than just driving across the border...
Done well, Facebook could create an ecosystem of Facebook apps exclusive to this platform and along with their data mining sell the phones at cost and actually make money on the larger project.
Done poorly, it's a train wreck. Either way, I don't see any kind of Facebook phone taking Apple or Android's place.
They could do it the Kindle tablet way. Like Amazon, provide a platform with disk space and backup in the cloud, voip services, etc. If they offer a complete eco-system, which makes it easier and cheaper for the user, it could work.
To be accurate... he was born in India and moved to Germany with his family at age 12. He did not speak a word of German when he arrived.
While credit must be given to the German school system, I think most of his accomplishment comes from him and possibly his family.
And maybe from not being in Europe or the western world the first twelve years of his life, adopting beliefs or creating a mental attitude that stuff like this cannot be done. And I'm not criticizing the Germans.
A similar feature exists (and I've tested it) from retrieval software on Android -- I'm somewhat shocked they couldn't manage to find the phone this way unless its been turned off since.
Turn off the phone. My phone doesn't require a PIN or unlock code for this. Remove the sim card. How much noise will it make? None!

But why would a geek be changing into your bikini?
Hey! I don't have a bikini! Let's be clear about that!!!
(And think of this: a geek who is changing into the bikini of another geek?!?! Or are we talking about two female geeks here?)

freeing disk space has nothing to do with performance.
If you only have 10MB free space, it certainly does.

That would bring the total number of specialist Computer Science teachers in the UK to...100.
Yeah and of course those Google bastards use the binary system. So they get credit for one hundred teachers, but only deliver four.
