Its worse than that. Last year GSM presentation revolved around taking over GSM codec part of the phone, and ALL android phones run codec in same memory space as main CPU.
This is exactly how Exxon Valdez oil spill was "cleaned". They used Hot Water Pressure Washers to "clean up" rocks. It: -killed everything that survived the oil (moss, bacteria, microorganisms) -evaporated/made oil airborn making workers breath it -pushed oil back into the ocean or deeper into the ground
I always wondered why Chinese people couldn't just use satellites to get around the firewall, or to at least receive broadcasts. It amazes me that they're just plain illegal. I can't even imagine living in a country where the government has such a great need to control your thoughts, that they tell you that you can't even listen to what anyone from outside your country might be saying.
In all modern IDE/SATA drives, the firmware is stored on the plater, not in an eeprom. And for most manufacturers, it's not field accessable. Plus there's zero documentation for the firmware / internal processor(s) outside of the manufacturer's labs. (and maybe the company making the chips.) Hacking the firmware is beyond the reach of anyone who would be wowed by a $10k prize.
Its not that mysterious. People mod DVDrom firmwares every day. HDD is just a DVDrom with magnetic media:) + firmware IS "field accessible". Every HDD on the market can have firmware updated by end user.
That's because MS is hosting the servers. Of course, when MS feels like they don't want to host them anymore, they will go away, like with Shadowrun.
M$ is NOT hosting any servers. 360 games are P2P, MS simply flips a bit on matchmaking service and delists games so players lose option of connecting with other players.
Tell that to Canadians who are getting deals like this:
Ultra-Lite Up to 256 kbps $5.00/GB* $27.99 2 GB Lite Up to 256 kbps $4.00/GB* $35.99 15 GB Express Up to 512 kbps $2.00/GB $46.99 60 GB Extreme Up to 1 Mbps $1.50/GB** $59.99 80 GB Extreme Plus Up to 1 Mbps $1.25/GB** $69.99 125 GB Ultimate Up to 2 Mbps $0.50/GB $99.99 175 GB
Meanwhile I've not been under 200gb/month in years (little to no P2P). Luckly for the moment we've got some indie ISPs which are offering unlimited for $40/month or 300gb for $30 but they might be forced into a pay model.
lol Meanwhile in Europe I pay $14 for unlimited 20/2Mbit cable, and when I say unlimited I mean I dont remember when was the last time I stopped seeding torrents at at least 1Mbit (I throttle myself to 1Mbit upload on torrent client when I play FPS games). uTorrent says 197GB transferred this month. 2.53TB uploaded total, 3.57TB downloaded total since last windows reinstall.
I often have stuff I've ordered that is too big to fit through my letter box left on my doorstep. It's a very quiet road and there is partial cover so it's nearly safe, but still.
The worst one so far was my latest (contract) mobile phone. You couldn't tell it was a phone from the package, but there was an impossible to miss "MUST BE SIGNED FOR" sticker on it. Needless to say, it wasn't.
(Oh, and this isn't UPS, this is Royal Mail in the UK)
What is the problem then? You call in and tell them you are still waiting for the phone. You didnt sign the receipt = you didnt receive it.
That is the problem, Serious gamers are 30% of the market _now_, and casual gaming is taking over (think farmville). We used to laugh at FPS games with a gamepad... until COD4 set record XBOX sales and market turned away from Us serious gamers and started catering to handicapped drolling 13 year old couch potatoes with pads.
already paying for XBox Live (~$70 year), why the hell should a gamer have to pay a subscription fee to play online?? Crazy-suckiness. Boooo Activision!!!
lol, guess you missed that "already paying for XBox Live (~$70 year)" you wrote 20 characters earlier
Don't worry, I'm sure the new Grand Theft Auto will be a launch title.
Dont count on it, M$ paid $75mil to Rockstars to make GTA4 DLCs Xbox exclusives. Deal lasted 3 years. M$ loves to buy themselves into the market, you can expect whole GTA5 being Xbox exclusive.
Slashdot Mirror
6" long stick
But that is exactly how she likes them.
Nice winding roads and an unlimited speed limit would get rid of much of that monotony.
That is a very good idea. Not, of course, for reducing car crashes, but for accelerating the process of natural selection.
German autobahns disagree with you.

stackless sucks balls by not supporting more than one cpu core

ViDock has been selling XG clone product for almost 5 years now.
Somebody mod down, Letter M next to laptop GPU model number means 1-3 models lower than advertised.
6770M = 6670
5770M = 5570
680M = downclocked 560
and so on
>A slightly weaker GPU on a fast interface is going to beat a fast one that's spending 90% of its time waiting for data over the bus.
No it wont. Just check older Vidock expansion products that used ExpressCard slot (×1 PCIe)
example http://www.jessebandersen.com/2010/11/vidock-4-unbox-hardware-setup-software.html
Even with x1 pci-e you blow out of the water all the mobile garbage that is put into paltops.

The real solution is improving their lives via education and infrastructure.
or sterilize them, works for stray cats/dogs

Iron curtain was like that. Listening to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_Free_Europe/Radio_Liberty was illegal in Poland.

In any case, too much CO2 in the air remains harmful for thousands of years.
Nice, you got modded insightful for saying plant food is harmful.

You are so cute, you think they keep logs.
A DDOS is pretty lame, though, since anyone with large resources can DOS sites targeting small audiences just by exceeding their server capacity.
Lame and easy since CCP uses one M$ SQL server for website/forums AND the game itself.
This needs to stop. I can't wait for long prison sentences for all of the people involved in this.
Yes, they are terrible, you cant play fav game or check out some website. The world is ending
The story is far from over, stay tuned for the next 100 admissions of "well, see it's a bit worse than we thought [read: admitted]".
and yet so far we have ONE confirmed victim, and he died of bad heart condition not the radiation ....

Naw, compared to Dubai, Japan is living in the middle ages.
