Seriously. One of the reasons why they all try to run their nuclear power stations as long as possible (despite the increasing risks) is that they know the decommissioning will bankrupt them.
There is enough democracy left in the US that the voters very much did this to themselves (as a group). Stop blaming others. Trump is a symptom, he did not elect himself. I do agree that you are victims though, but it is of your own collective inability.
Ah, yes. And you cannot rip it out either (as I did with my Amazon tablet as their voice assistant cannot be removed), because then it does not work as a phone anymore. I think there is no good solution for microphones at the moment. Hopefully somebody will find one soon.
We will see whether this holds up, but at the moment Intel is the one that played it fast and loose in order to have a few percent more performance, while AMD was far more careful and conservative and is now far less at risk and maybe not at all due to massively higher effort to exploit the subset of these vulnerabilities where they are affected. It is still possible that an easy to exploit variant will eventually be found for AMD too, but at the moment there is none.
Given that AMD has already done some additional things against this class of exploits in Zen 2, it may be that Intel CPUs will be a continued problem for the next years, while the same things may be more of an annoyance on AMD or not even present. Well, market dominance is never a good thing. Quality almost always suffers and prices get inflated. It would be a good thing if Intel got cut down quite a bit in size.
Of course, many people now have do defend their bad decision to not even have looked at AMD and they are intent to muddy the waters.
That was a joke. Clearly the defense against laser-wielding soldiers is just the same as against those with flame-throwers: Shoot them on sight, even when they surrender.
This is probably a compromise with usability, as, if I understand this right, devices get kicked after this one hour. The GrayKey needs apparently 11h on average for a 6 digit PIN and much longer for a longer one. Id this time is typical for all such tools (and I would think the limiting factor is the phone, not the external attack box), then 1h of "vulnerable" time is not much of a vulnerability.
They should make this configurable down to zero though.
Law enforcement of all colors has amply demonstrated that they do not understand device security and why it is important. Hence this is good news.
Incidentally, if you let the police decide what freedoms and protection against the state people have, you end up with a police-state. These people have entirely the wrong mindset. When you remember that the primary purpose of the police is protecting the rich and powerful and fighting (slave) upraisings, this becomes much more obvious. All that "to serve and protect" crap is basically propaganda.

The only good thing about this is that the ones that did this stupid thing will be the ones that suffer most.
I was not talking about Trump.
Does it matter? Their product is superior in a critical aspect.
Same here, although I started with the K5.
Actually, domestic fascists taking over the governments of the west are a far more serious threat.
I was thinking the same thing.

Because this is very likely not Telegram doing it?
The only way to deal with cameras that do not have a hard-wired activation light.
It is not news either. It is just becoming much more obvious in the Internet age.
I do mean on effective security, not all that worthless "compliance" bullshit.

Which, let me see, the Chinese, the US and some other perverted authoritarian regimes care nothing about?
Depends on the mirror.
Indeed. And even blinding soldiers is out as they will just wear laser googles. The only useful application of this weapon is to maim civilians.
I predict scale-armor will make a comeback.
If you can do it by robot, you can do it far, far cheaper by CGI.

The NSA has no interest in criminals...

You probably have C coders that do not understand OO and then fail to use C++ OO right (well, as far as that is possible anyways).
Same here. No idea what killed the excellent AltaVista though. Probably management stupidity.
