That is possible, but for now, never has an "universal backdoor for the government" been provably found in an OS or a firmware. NSA has probably snuck a lot of trojan hardware and software into individually targeted devices, though.
Issuing the ATA Secure Erase command is the most professional way. The drive itself knows the most efficient way to nuke all data from the orbit. Especially useful for SSDs as it might also zero hidden wear leveled data and set all sectors into a TRIMmed state.
At least once a year, Redmond sends one of its shills out to declare Microsoft's dedication to open source, and it's always a variation on the same theme.
Good choice. Buying from another vendor sends much better message than buying the Tektronix product ("hey, I like your artificially crippled products, please make more") and then going with the pirate modules.
An anonymous reader writes with the news that Hackaday published an article on the poor security of the add-on modules that Tektronix sells as expensive add-ons to unlock features in certain of its oscilloscopes.
The add-on modules are expensive because you pay for the features they unlock, not for the components of the unlock device itself. It's a dongle.
This guy is essentially trying to cheat. It's like you could unlock some cool DLC content for a game, but instead just went cracking the encrypted data files and getting that content without paying the game company.
Hey, if you don't like a scope which has this kind of feature unlock capability, just don't buy it. But stop messing with other people's legitimate business. I can understand why Tektronix is upset about this.
Well, I either do not know what we are talking about.:) Right now that AMD page does not load properly, but that NVIDIA guide is just about the normal vendor extensions, and OpenCL is not related to OpenGL. Granted, the extension support offers OpenGL some advantage over DirectX, but I do not know how meaningful that is anymore as we write shaders anyway in all 3D APIs.

Whatever happened to 1920x1200? When I need another monitor for the office, I always look for these, they are harder to come by nowadays.
Grab the BenQ BL2411PT. It comes with an 1920x1200 IPS panel. Also doesn't use PWM dimming, so no eye strain or headaches.

damned traitor.
Would you really like to live in an alternate reality where all the Snowden's revelations would never have happened?
It's a nice Freudian slip: lawyers often have to be quite "anal" about all the legal details.
Based on my empirical experience, I am fully confident that it is properly implemented in the firmware.
Last year they also had a Google Docs Isn't Worth the Gamble campaign accompanied with a video.

Heh, good one. ;)

It happens more often these days. Last time they talked about OSS a month ago.
Slashdot articles are now pushing Microsoft products. Everything is backwards from 1997.
Times have actually changed. Microsoft software was mostly garbage in 1997. That's not true anymore.
Look at this. And this and this and even this.
Raaawrgh. Not the "this, this and this" dance again. ;) Let me FTFY...
"Look at Microsoft Open Technologies. And .NET Foundation and a Computerworld article about Internet of Things and even Codeplex."
A good rule of thumb is that the sentence should be readable even without seeing which URLs the hyperlinks point to.

I will represent myself as a shady unofficial sales representative for an Australian microphone brand.
Figure that one out, and commercial software will be dead tomorrow.
Why must it die? Has the "world been saved" then?
Metro was renamed Modern UI two years ago.
And the Gizmo Duck unicycle.

I think many of them would be fine with that.
Yes, that is true. :)
30 fps would allow a maximum frequency of 15 Hz.
I have tried it myself.
Both XP and 7 grab about 500 megs of RAM on startup.

How is that possible then?
