I live in Spain and see a lot of dubbed movies and sometimes the Spanish/English dialog is completely different.
It took me a while to figure out why, ie. because some Spanish translations have simply too many syllables to fit. When this happens they rewrite the dialog to fit.
So yes, Navajo could have the words and in the same manner english does. Any modern concept could be brought into Navajo the same way it was brought into English, bridging from the old into the new.
Most of the modern words added to Navajo are translated pidgin-style (eg. according the the article "R2D2"="the short metal thing that's alive"). It takes far longer to say. Making the dialog fit the on-screen action will be challenging, to say the least.
I see. If you believe that AV products are useless, what would be your suggestion of a solution to preventing and detecting malware?
AV products work fine against last month's virus?
This weeks virus? The only solution is to drop a bomb on Microsoft and start over.
eg. I used to think mp3 files couldn't contain a virus - they're just data files, right? Bugs in the player aside, they can't execute code.
Wrong. Microsoft added a VBScript extension to them.
Also... make "safe" mode, well, safe! ie. Make it not execute any old program that happens to have added a registry entry for itself. Safe mode should only execute fully signed code.
Also... AV vendors need to make their products able to run off a pen drive. Booting the fundamentally-flawed-and-infected OS before you can run the antivirus? It's laughable.
I can come up with a dozen other things if you like, but I stand 100% by my statement that AV products are snake oil.
Well, politics has gotten complicated over the past 100 years or so. Most people have 1 thing they are good at... maybe 2. In order to fully comprehend what's going on in politics you need to commit a significant portion of your day to reading, weighing and digesting information on the subject because it's literally changing by the second.
Here in Spain they mostly preparing for lunch at around 11 am then go for a round of golf afterwards to prepare themselves mentally for the difficult official dinner.
If you can meet up to exchange a piece of glass you can also exchange USB drives (or whatever) full of random numbers. It's just as secure as this method.
The innovation here is that that nobody can make a copy of the piece of glass.
Or is it...? If Bob can create a OTP using the glass then so can Eve. All she does is sneak into his hotel room when he's asleep, generate his pad using his crystal and make a copy of it.
I fail to see how this is more secure than simply exchanging USB keys.
Slashdot Mirror
Funny how TFA uses it as an example....
I never knew "R2" means anything
Please hand in your geek card and remove slashdot from your bookmarks. Thankyou.

Also anti-buffered, eg. when the Siberian permafrost melts.

So if I took Star Wars back 100 years in time, would it matter if a linguistic committee somewhere had decided what those words were?
It would all be gibberish to the ordinary people watching the movie.
The problem with translating (eg.) "R2" as "little white metal man who whistles" is that it takes much longer to say.
When you're dubbing a movie the dialog has to keep up with the action.
They could freeze it until he's 18.
Will Navajo even have words for space ships, robots and laser beams...?
Take the hate for bluetooth earpieces, multiply it by 1000 because now nobody even wants you to look in their direction.
That's Glass. May it die.
Smartphones do everything useful that glass does but you can put them away in your pocket. Winner.
What's really surprising is that torrents aren't infected up the wazoo with malware anyway.
Why would they? Pirates are far more worried about reputation and repeat customers than the RIAA appear to be.

He ought to be placed in a public urinal and left there to fucking well rot!
Air freshener?
Even kings start to smell bad after a couple of days.
Just dig a hole and drop him in it, he's putting me off my eel pie...
Whoosh.
(And I don't think I could have give more clues...)

The problem is that people ask too much of government.
I live in Spain and I don't recall asking them to build a new submarine fleet in the middle of a financial crisis.
All you have to do is make the speed limit either 55mph or 100km/h (driver's choice...)
Pretty soon you'll have most of America swearing they were driving at 100km/h.
This. As soon as any AV product starts to actually work, the writers will change the virus until it doesn't.
AV products are 99% snake oil.
“My greater concern is that someone would do this, make one, and then suffer the consequences and kill themselves
If police don't want people to print guns they should just fill Youtube with videos of plastic guns exploding.
Their current (idiotic) policy is just causing a Streisand effect.
Never mind that, I want to know who has enough money to buy 22 tons of LEGO. That stuff's more expensive than gold.
wings
I think you mean S-foils.
You can turn in your nerd card at the door.
Logic 101:
All S-foils are wings. Not all wings are S-foils.
The clue is in the name "X-wing".
Rob Ford hasn't been that thin in 20 years...
He's smoking crack now - it's the ultimate weight-loss plan!

Nope. The OTP is truly unbreakable.
The only problem with it is that you need to secretly transmit the pad to the recipient. How do you do that? With a one-time-pad...?
