I've used OS X since it's release, this is the first of the many published vulnerabilities that actually causes me concern. From a security perspective Spotlight is unusable on Yosemite machines until this is fixed. Thank goodness my main machines are still on 10.9.
"Well let's see... the IRA/English's battle over Northern Ireland (largely drawn across Catholic/Protestant religious lines) cease fire was just over 20 years ago. And the final peace accord was only 17 years ago. That marked the end of 30 years of assassinations, murders, bombings, and attacks all of which were surrounded by religious fervour."
Wrong. The conflict was about differing traditions and governance. The fact that the 2 groups had differing flavours of Christianity was a detail.
Isn't this the company who gave Seagate a a hard time over the reliability that they had WITH THIER SAMPLE?
I have no reliability issues with Seagate compared with several other suppliers (WITH MY SAMPLE).
So China is banning the currency because it wants to protect the United States?
Not for that reason only, but China has massive investment in the US in the form of US debts. China wouldn't want anyone defaulting. Nor would they like seeing the US$ fall in value.
No no no, only the stupid criminals get caught. The clever ones just carry on milking us. Some of these are called "bankers"; "politicians"; The already rich...
If you're noticing data corruption on only 2TB it's probably not what we normally call bit-rot. A bit that changes state for no apparent reason within a very large set of data can be described as bit-rot, otherwise it's general data corruption which has many causes which all are understood: Poor media, poor transmission of data, overwriting of data etc. Once you've got the system sorted out so you don't get data corruption, start thinking about the nature of your data. How much redundancy is in it? If it's jpegs the almost none, so a single bit error could be serious to a file. If uncompressed TIFFs then there is a lot of data redundancy and the single bit error might only be an error of a single pixel, which you might not even notice.
And finally, don't expect optical media to be safe from errors. Only use it as part of a DR plan.
This whole clock switching thing is utter bollocks:
First it was: "Our farmers need more daylight" - well just let them change THEIR hours!
Next it was: "Our kids mustn't go to school in the dark" (but it's ok for them to come home in darkness) - - well just let them change THEIR hours!
Next it was: "We'll save energy" - which is doubtful and unproven, but if you want to try - just change YOUR hours!
There are only a given number of daylight hours in a day - you just can't have more!
Since we all have biological clocks, it's difficult argue with the article that shifting hours screws with people's well being and efficiency.
Amusingly I found that in Tokyo bars (in friendship terms) I had more in common with the locals than with caucasian Americans with whom I share the same European ancestry.
Nevertheless I am broadly drawn towards females who are similar to me. Those who look most dissimilar do not rate on my "wish to procreate with" list.
For the article's hypothesis to work, it's the second point that matters most. It means that the people who are born around you will be more like you and so are there for available friendship.
Not everyone is like me, and I'm glad of that. The more diverse the gene pool, the stronger the specie.

Nevertheless it's slightly more credible than N.K. having done it.
There is something disturbing about your selective use of apostrophes. Which part of me isn't a monkey? - Said the Eskimo...

I go once got lost in an Icelandic forest, but then I stood up.
Thanks, I'd never considered "remove(ing) the dimensions". It helps a lot!
They probably pass on the chaff and keep the juicy ones. But let me ask you this: If you had their brief, would you do anything different?
AC is correct. Jamming GPS (or equivalent other satellite system) is trivial and has been done. It's a major system weakness.
A decade ago I would have believed this as gospel, now I'm not sure. It's difficult to believe the US voice any more.
If MS were serious they'd say ANY Apple laptop. After all, what are they going to do with the trade-ins, open a store? No, they'll destroy them.
Or they could just phone you.
It's the best I can do!
Very insightful. Wish I had some mod points...
I'd like a really slow, large elevator containing a restaurant or a bar. Have dinner or get pissed on the way home! Perfect.

Electrocution = Electro + execution = dead! There's nothing mild about dead!
Latency will be affected by the return channel path (satellite or ground) and to a lesser extent, how far from the equator the flight path is.

Sites that disagree with the government line? But facebook beheadings are presumably not extremist enough..
