Of course it's not enough, and not even close to being as trivially easy as a photograph. If somebody has the resources and motivation to obtain a 3D scan of a person's face and then 3D print a mask, do you really think a fingerprint scanner would be any more secure against such a person?
And none of your examples demonstrate the AC's specific claim that a photograph can unlock Face ID. So please, by all means, go back to Google and find evidence of that. Once again, I'll wait.
Should be: "Samsung's display that Apple buys for the iPhone X is the most innovative and highest performance display ever tested"
You mean the display that Samsung built to Apple's exacting specifications? (Apple basically designed the display, they just didn't manufacture it themselves).
which lets owners of the Google Home "smart" speaker order items through voice commands like owners of the Echo can do from Amazon.
Seriously? You seriously believe anyone wants to do that?
Not only do I want to do that, the ability to re-order items from Amazon is one of the main reasons I have an Echo, mainly because I have a bad memory or because I'm thinking about other things. So when I'm in the shower for example, and notice I'm running low on shampoo, I can just yell out (from the shower) "Alexa, order more shampoo" which is a godsend for me. Before I had an Echo, I would make a mental note that I needed more shampoo and then promptly forget about it as soon as I walked out of the bathroom.
Does anyone have any stories about Alexa doing useful things? True stories only, not made up stuff about what it might do someday.
Well let's see, I use the shopping list, to-do list, reminders, alarm clock, etc. daily and they are all very useful. But by far the most useful thing for me (as somebody who orders A LOT from Amazon) is the ability to say, "Alexa, order more _______" and it will check my order history for the item, tell me the current price, and ask if I want to order it again. I say "yes" and it's on its way.
It uses dual cameras and an array of sophisticated sensors and emitters to do a 3D scan of your face, so no, no photograph is going to be able to spoof your face to get around the security.
Just in case there are some people who haven't seen this yet (it's been one of the most viewed videos on YouTube this past week), this is one of the best game trailers I've ever seen. It's actually disturbing and emotional at the same time. I hope the game turns out to be half as good.
Actually, it could happen if the users who received the honeypot page in their search results actually clicked on the honeypot page link. MS could just be monitoring the links that users click on and it has nothing to do with Google's search results.
It's a hell of a thing watching people die on live T.V.
It's even more intense when you see it happen before your eyes. I was there in person. My first shuttle launch, so I had no idea what to expect. We could hear the echo of the explosion but I didn't really know what was going on. I thought the SRB's where being jettisoned or something. And then we realized there was no longer any contrail continuing upwards. That was a weird feeling, the hushed silence of 200,000 people standing there in shock.
After the betrayal that was "Lost", I'm no longer watching anything by J. J. Abrams. Apparently the latest model of attracting viewers is to keep throwing mysteries and questions on them, without any plan to ever answer them. This is not something I am interested in.
Then I guess you'll really like his new series, "Alcatraz".
Fax is still widely used in many industries. For example, I work in the IT dept. for a Healthcare company and I manage their fax server. We send about 5000 faxes per day to doctor's offices, because they won't accept email. They believe that fax is a more secure form of communication for transmitting sensitive patient records. And I don't see this view changing any time soon.
Do you really think that somebody who has the technology to travel back in time would be connecting to something as primitive as a cell phone network? Presumably, if they could send people through time then they can send communications through time as well. Such a communications network would make our current cell phone network seem like AM radio.
Uh, Luke's robotic hand looked like a normal hand (on the outside). Only Annakin's hand (presumably made with older inferior technology) looked mechanical.
But only.5% (not 5 percent, half a percent) of users have even reported the problem.
This is such a misleading statistic, because it assumes that every single person who experiences the problem is going to immediately call Apple to complain, and that is simply not true. I can make the problem happen for me by using the grip of death, but I never called Apple to complain. And I'm sure there are many, many more people like me.
I think a much more telling statistic would be, out of the sum total of calls received regarding the iPhone 4, what percentage of those calls were about the antenna problem?

Lost Ends

· Score: 1
And the ending made no sense at all taken with the departure of Kate, Sawyer and Clair on the plane. How does Kate end up at the funeral dead if she managed to fly off the island alive? Why even bother to get that group to the plane, if it is meaningless if they reached it or not?
For all we know, Kate lived to an old age, then died and went to the "purgatory" funeral in the altiverse. Remember, Christian told Jack that some of the people at the funeral had died before him, and some had died long after him. Kate could very well have been one of those who died long after Jack. Since there was no "now" in the altiverse (as explained by Christian), time was irrelevant there and all the people who had died at various different times were able to gather together there before moving on to the afterlife.
Are you stupid or something? You don't have to obscure your own vision, you only need to block the camera so it does not have a clear view of your entire face. That means cover your face, not your eyes, dumbass. All you would have to do is put your hand a few inches in front of your face with the fingers spread apart. You can see through your fingers, but they can't see through your hand. It's that simple.

what, a 3d printed face mask isnt enought? https://www.theverge.com/2017/...

why do people always post "cite your evidence.. i 'll wait" but cant seem to bother using GOOGLE??
Here is a 10 year old boy unlocking his moms phone https://www.wired.com/story/10...
here is a mask unlocking a phone https://www.macrumors.com/2017...
here is the face ID not working for apples own demo https://www.theverge.com/circu...
try using google..

But it will also unlock using a simple folded photograph if held correctly, making it trivial for adversaries to unlock.
Please cite your evidence for this. I'll wait.
The X is also the only phone with portrait mode selfies with the front camera.

Not yielding an inch, are they? Imagine the impact it would have on Subway.
I agree, asking for a 30.48 centimeter sandwich instead of a footlong just wouldn't work.
Since the pirated version adds piracy to the gameplay, doesn't that make it a more realistic version and therefore a better version of the game?

It's just streaming video, so it's going to use the same amount of bandwidth, as say, Netflix does.

Atonement has an extremely intricate 5-minute continuous tracking shot. You can see it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k5dqmUgu0SI
Obviously you don't have a wife and kids, because that would shoot your entire "the theater is cheaper" argument to hell.
