802.1x is not new, and corporate NAC's / Radius / etc. are I thought pretty standard operating procedure to make sure some moron with a home PC doesn't wonder in and introduce crytolocker to the environment.
I'm sorry but.... there is nothing special about this attack. They named their service google docs in Oauth and that's about the extent of things. I apologize that despite 20 years of warnings about phishing and reading shit users are still dumb as hell and click anything on their screen. At some point we need to admit to ourselves that no amount of security is going to stop a stupid user
How is this different from Discord or any other web application that has existed for the last 15 years? I feel like there's some key piece I'm missing to make sense of how this isn't a totally bullshit article.
As I understand it, there is already enough brokenness in 3.5, why would we want to release a 4th version, where there is a very large chance they will release a literal ton of books and new abilities that will further contribute to the work a DM has to do to make sure the players are relatively balanced. Its tough enough having to spend several minutes going through each thing they want and making sure that its not some net plan to become the next pun pun.
Blogging is not some new concept invented back in 1997. I am pretty sure a great many people kept journals long before that. Blogging is not a unique concept, its simply one of the oldest concepts applied to HTML rather than pen and paper. In this matter the buzz word blog and ever possible tense there of are nothing more than keeping a journal and using HTML rather than Pen and Paper to do it.
As a PHP developer (to some degree, not much) I am a bit confuse by the following
trying to get me to use an upload.php file to put files on your webserver
upload.php is just the name of the file, it may imply something but the security level on that file is going to very from developer to developer. It may have thousands of lines of code checking the file to make sure it is such and such a size, or such and such a file type. Don't assume just because they all named it upload.php that they are similar in any way. Would you prefer I name my upload checking file 514645646a4s.php? It is easy to remember, and in PHP you are going to be calling a lot of crap from other files, so keeping it easy to remember is a bit more than logical.
Well that is a side effect of being so awesome that you are granted eternal life. You se all of this is just a ribbon of energy in Patric Stewards mind. The entire world is his illusion.
Every time I turn around someone quips up this bit about the Ipod wasn't going to do well, the iphone will have the same fate and be huge. First off this a completely different market, you have competition and almost everyone already has a cell phone. Plus it is 600 OMG teh hax dollars. What was the predominate thing that everybody reported killed sony this year in the console war? Oh thats right price. *thinks... oh wait these are apple elitist*, Nevermind you should be just fine with the price my bad.
Funny, it seems between the 8 machines I just booted up this week alone, as the machine (from dell, 3 latitudes, 3 optiplex's and 2 dimensions) got higher up in terms of hardware so to did the oemware. The laptop being the lightest software wise came with only Intel's wireless goof, and maybe a dell support thing or two. The optiplex's came with a wonderful plethora of useless dell related propaganda, and finally the Dimension even came with its own happy copy of Norton, and a virtual plethora of un needed Dell Media software.
Funny I didn't even pick up a server version of windows. Ran Apache, PHP, and MySQL on Home Edition and anyone within my home network could view the web pages just fine.
If I wanted to read every time CNET comes out with a new top 10 list that their employees seem to have the time to put together, than the site that I have in my bookmarks would likely be CNET. But seriously/. if you are going to post every little review they do in their spare time and than proceed to make a top 10 list, than make it it
And a million times over not yet. No matter how many boxes I have running Ubuntu, that does not mean it is in anyway a market competitor. There are two major reasons for this, a.) There are no major companies using it as a primary desktop replacement, until a major company with millions of workers begins the switch we won't see it. Why? because people like what they work with to work at home (the average Joe atleast). Because of the fact that most office environments because of the RDP (gui based remote desktop protocol built into windows) and the User friendly (much more so than linux, sorry but no one likes to the DOS prompt, they were taught in school that it was a scary tool that only the 1337 folks used). The GUI that windows provides with its less than efficient wizards are what people like. The ability to click next and forget it is wonderful for folks
Add this to the fact that the one feature that negates windows security, its bending over backwards so that a program will run (although almost never well). Because there are so many developers and its so easy to develop for (I mean come on Visual Basic...) there are products, and the cooperate world loves products
Add this to what they have been taught to use (people don't like change) and you have a winning combination for at least another five or so years. People don't use Linux not because it isn't amazing OS, but because it isn't user friendly, because it doesn't have developers, and because it isn't being used in the cooperate world. Until those goals are met Ubuntu, and any distro for that matter is not a market level competitor

So Google's Deepmind, which learned all on it's own how to play an Atari?
So when does it become AI then? What is "AI" to you because clearly there's some semantic differences.
A site sponsored by MS, Google, and others and it looks like that? Must not be high on their priority list.
I was under the impression that it was now Siblings... not brothers... per say.
And I'm not even perfectly sure what I want to do for career, those kids will change their minds more times than one can imagine in those 4 years.

For a neutrino emmision. Those only come from stable wormholes, its a proven fact.

They just got IE7 out, give them 3-4 years, they are working on it.

And this is why I always set things to Greenwich Mean Time.

I for one welcome our new Indian Tech Support Overlords.

moron troll fails to realize slashdot put an end to the shock site field a long time ago, way to go AC keep up the good work.
Probably written by a NASA after feeling bad. They do have a history of doing piss poor conversions, or just none at all. .

yeah, but then you know that many characters in a search string, a bit tough and usually truncated google side.
