Lenovo, Asus, or Acer might pick it up if Samsung takes a pass. Think about all those Asian gamers and their hardware requirements. But I agree with you regarding Google, and then somehow it'll become more developer friendly too.
The few that I checked out, were all clarifying legitimate typos. This is an excellent tool, to be able to monitor such, with precision like this. If only we could get this tool into OpenSSL or some derivative of OpenSSL, etc., somehow.
FWIW, this is the first useful thing I've personally seen Twitter used for. But like everything I see in Twitter, there is redundancy in plained old, un-walled-garden rss publishing, (with no 140K limit!)
So were talking something of a margin of victory like 600 - 900 votes this time around? That still ain't a whole lot. He only won by 312 votes the first time.
What does it mean that Comcast gave him money for his first election? Had Franken actually declared war on the Comcast/NBC merger while he was campaigning? GM/NBC was even his former employer at Saturday Night Live. Maybe Comcast just wanted to get on his good side at the time, like his other donors?
But the next election might be something different. And even if Comcast gave him $10k, they'll give the other guy 20k, (so 30K paid out overall) with 20K just the cost of doing business in order to pump up their real pick with a 10K advantage. Don't forget Comcast Corp has a right to Freedom of Speech and can't be sooo restricted financially.
Been watching the firehose submissions as a kind of hobby for the last few hours while monitoring machine processes and I can assure you, this was not part of anything submitted. Perhaps on a slow news day, but... this post just seems so lame to begin with.
You assume every small business owner is technology savvy enough to monitor Google Maps, along with every similar web service for such malicious acts, on a regular basis. Seriously, you must be able to see you will always have a given percentage of businesses that fail to do such a task, and do it well.
Yesterday, when I read this article, I checked out a location which I'm not willing to share here. On it was exactly this type of 'theft' of location, and street-view manipulation as explained in this article. In fact I had noticed the hack before in this location, but not realized it as such.
Yesterday, when I looked and saw the display via the new GMAPs interface, I was amazed at the *quality* of the hack. A dirty, mouse-infested hotel down the street 'occupied' a very desirable corner location and cafe. Using street-view, it appeared as if the cafe was the hotel's bar. Plus they had purchased an ad to book the hotel when you clicked the PIN, and the result looked IMHO better than a professional web-page for such a purpose (because of the new GMAPs interface and presentation). The final result was a stuning, quality, hack I thought, and everyone I showed it to agreed. But I give more credit to dumb luck plus the new GMAPs interface then cleverness by the thieving hotel owner.
I used the 'suggest an edit' tool to report the manipulation to Google, and also input new, accurate information for the cafe on the corner, and other neighborhood features.
Weird thing is, today when I look via various machines inthe office, I see various displays. Some showing the old GMAPs interface, some new. Some with the dirty hotel competely removed from the map, and the cafe added. Like DNS, it seems it takes a while for GMAPs to get updated, and probably the more people that offer input the better.
Now I want this interesting new gmail feature for my own personal use too! Call it beta if you want, go ahead, it seems to be working well enough already.
Who should I address my own Feature Request to at the GOOG? Maybe Fat Chance?
According to RSA, the malware is being delivered via email. In Brazil, when banking customers access their online banking site for the first time, they are often asked to install a security plugin. When the customer does so, a protection service is created and starts running on the PC. In addition, some shared libraries are also installed on the system and are loaded by the browser in order to help provide protection for customers during online banking operations, RSA noted.
However, the Boleto malware the company detected searches for specific versions of client side security plug-ins detects their shared libraries and patches them in real-time to dodge security. In one case, RSA analysts noticed that the malware accessed the plugin's memory area and modified a conditional JMP to a regular JMP operation, thereby thwarting the plugin's capabilities.
What platforms does this malware operate on exactly? The TFA doesn't say.
I can tell you for a fact, a free Class 1 StartSSL certificate can achieve an A+ rating from ssllabs.com when/if the technical server configuration is correct, because I saw it happen just this week on a server somewhere. StartSSL seems to make a profit by allowing newbies a free, documented (but otherwise 'supported' to what extent I didn't test at all...) learning process and having to pay higher than normal revocation fees to get everything functional and correctly setup. I made this mistake once myself, and then realized it was simply cheaper to pay about $15 for a new Class 2 certificate from Dreamhost SSL than to pay StartSSL to revoke my free, erroneous-URL certificate from them. StartSSL looks like a really good operation, but you really need to know what you are doing to really save money.
Here's a really good article to help newbie NGINX admins secure their servers using free StartSSL Class 1 certificates: https://konklone.com/post/swit...
What I've learned lately in my own research in this area is there's further differentiation of certificate values, such as the green Class 3 certificates which I semi-understand require more documentation to be filed (like passport scans?) and higher fees.
Seriously, this post should be modded up as informative. Thanks for taking the time to write it. It was wrong to be down-modded so. People might disagree with you, but you're certainly not an anonymous coward!
Supposing PayPal takes full financial responsibility, why should you care so much? As it is in their best interest to do so, let's see what how they follow through.
This is very good news, thank you! [sarcasm]Hopefully Google will start to promote open-source Chromium more heavily, as opposed to registered-account-required Chrome. [/sarcasm]
You might very well be mistaken. XXX is intrinsic to the coat of arms of Amsterdam. Obviously this fine demo comes from a developer working for the city government, you insensitive clod!
There are several explanations why this is so, with fire, flood, pestilence being the prevalent theory. http://boingboing.net/2006/04/...
Firefox has had a sessions plugin for years already, that I couldn't live without. The closest thing I found to use in Chrome can't hold a candle to it: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-...
Another extremely useful FF extension is called Scrapbook, which I use to collect and prioritize web pages, sometimes ads I am interested in, saving only the precise HTML part I want to my disk, note-like. It also saves a link to the original source, which may or may not disappear as time passes. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-...
Not to mention Adblock Plus, FireBug, bla bla bla.

Because if Google feels it worthwhile to publish a smartphone-api/cardboard-cutout-kit/virtual-reality-display, they could probably manage XBox too.
Haven't you ever noticed where the tubes connect to the cloud? I could diagram it for you if you'd like.

I have serious doubts about your statement, considering how contested Franken's election victory was, and for how long, not to mention how close.

OK, I get your point, but what about the money ATT, Verizon, Comcast, etc. will be pumping into his opponent?
Guess who won't be receiving much, if any campaign contributions for the next election from ATT? (Or Verizon, or Comcast).

'2012 A Space Odyssey' probably still feels fresh to you because it was only two years ago.
And Han shot first, because I was there when he did it, and I saw him do it.

They're already doing DNS, so at minimum, I'd expect SSL certification services coming next.
Brilliant. Of course. This just makes so much sense now.

That's just like before I wrapped the fish and chips with it, I read the Daily Mirror first. Its a lot more than a wrapper; its a dog trainer too!
