They can damage South Korea, but they are not set up in a way that they could effect a war beyond the range that their current artillery is stationed.
North Korea is a one trick pony and we know what that trick will be if they ever decide to play it. They will not play it.
North Koreans are taught that the rest of the world has it worse than them, that dear leader has their best intentions at heart. The moment that the North Koreans were to reach Seoul the North would lose those soldiers. North Korea would only be able to sustain an attack for a few days at best, after that the North would be invaded and there would finally only be one Korea. (mass suicide of North Koreans would follow unfortunately)
Their nuclear program is a joke at best, there have been larger fertilizer explosions than what North Korea test fired.
The Chinese already know that Russia is a more likely threat to them than the US.
North Korea is a threat mainly to themselves and occasionally to the South Koreans. North Korea is unable to mount an attack that would go much further than a few miles past their borders, they just plain do not have the logistics necessary.
I thought it was him trying to not pay any taxes that led Andrew Stack to target people who have no influence on his taxes.
I agree that there are some extremely messed up taxes for some aspects of software development, but that is not why he flew his plane into an IRS office.
He got sold on the idea that he didn't have to pay ANY taxes, ANY, Zip, zero, zilch, none.
I would think that there would be enough of a variation between models that any software attempting to obtain such information would have to be tailored for specific models. The surface that the laptop is rested on may also come into play.
The Chinese may be rationalizing their distance in a way that may not make sense to us, it only has to make sense to them to do it.
Of course every country out there spies, but most don't try to take over innocent civilians computers in a bid to do so.
It is mentioned on Slashdot not because of the action, but the method.
Well if the US or Russia does take over civilians computers, they are at least better at hiding it than the Chinese.
That is one thing about the Chinese government, they don't tend to be subtle.
Or are there images that would drop ones immune system?
Like perhaps rotten.com or goatse, or would those images still increase ones immune system?
Depends on how many of the players can be firmware updated to deal with the formats.
The two formats they are talking about appear to be in pipedream stage. They will be obsolete before they are released, if they are released at all.
Is that you can only mod them down once.
It will only lead to more problems road rage.
And its a lot easier to shoot someone once they have stopped, but then getting around the car may be a bit tricky.
per the TFA it is not limitless. It will only have enough nuclear fuel to power it for approximately two years.
They do not have the ability to create a launch-able nuclear weapon.
Their test bomb was not small enough to launch, they could put it on a ship and bring it to harbor and blow it up maybe.
They could though launch a conventional warhead against Japan though. It would be more likely to go boom also.

No idea, but hey old nuclear weapons make for great nuclear fuel, so that is another bonus to this story.

Think it would have exploded if you tossed in a match?

Rather than any of those options, wouldn't the best option to be to capture that methane and use it as a fuel?
Isn't all software custom once you get into the configuration?

Why not both?
Wireless keyboard when you are just watching TV.
Netbook for when you are watching TV and surfing at the same time.
It's not like one makes you unable to do the other.
All it takes is some plugging of cords and tighten a couple screws then toss it into the burn rack.
Building a computer isn't exactly rocket science, its closer to putting together a snap together model.

I'd rather keep my warranty intact thank you.
If I want to work with something hacked together I'll do it on the PC where recovery is simple.
The hippies will be happy knowing that they are getting doused with organic free trade capsicum rather than some polluting lab created capsicum.
And with an HDMI port to boot. Could be the lowest power and smallest home theater device.

There are simpler ways to obtain the same result.
As an engineer could you not find a way that they could remove the dust off the panels using compressed air rather than water?
And that is why they no longer use "Etch a Sketch" as a means of recording earthquakes.
