I'm sorry but this does not seem as 'good news' for fans of IEs demise. You are saying that out of 62 of the users who are getting the ballot box, in the past month 61 have chosen IE and one has chosen to switch?
This sounds pretty easy, a) obtain database, indexing tools, search tool b) install on the machine and encrypt the entire hard drive with any of the many available whole-disk encryption tools c) ssh in and run queries.
The rock bottom price for a GPS device nowadays is $150. You can switch to the iPhone for merely $199. Can't beat it.
Oh and for our european friends: It's merely â126,

Please don't buy the native ink, they are just scamming people with them. * The software embedded in HP printer cardridges causes them to expire after a set of amount of time, forcing comsumers to purchase new ink, even if it's not run out yet. This prevents users from refilling their cardridges. (HP Ink costs more than human blood) by the way. * They enforce "region coding" restrictions that prevent cardridges purchased in one region from operating with printers purchased in another. This "feature" is intended to support regional market segmentation and price discrimination. * Laser toner is a cheap black powder. You can buy a refill for about $4.99. Opening the toner equipment for a refill can be tricky, in the case of Lexmark they made it impossible. A new toner costs ~$100. After third party toners that allowed refills showed up, lexmark added a layer of encryption and authentication to the modules. When SCC started selling reverse engineered refillable cardridges Lexmark sued them, they invoked the DMCA to ban them from selling the product. Litigation lasted 19 months and SCC products were off the market during that period.
Slysoft has made this claim before. It turned out to be bogus. The crack allowed a user to copy a BD to the harddrive and play it back from there using only a specific version of Cyberlink's PowerDVD (3319a), but not to transcode, otherwise manipulate the content or play it back from a burned BD-R or BD-RE. (Wiki)
Now I'd like everyone to remember that BD+ is not an `algorithm` per se. It's not a DRM one way function. BD+ is a virtual machine and a blu ray disk is a full fledged program that runs under the VM and can even run native code to patch and upgrade the virtual machine.
This is akin to running a java application that can inspect the java VM.
I agree that the capacitor is the way to go. As a reminder, all harddrives are fitted with an emergency capacitor. If the hard drive looses power while the head is traveling there's a risk for a head crash. Thus, once power is lost, the capacitor will fire up the motor for one last push toward the parking space. if you have an external hard drive listen for the click that happens right after you pull the power.
RTFA: The cable was not cut, it was taken offline due to power problems.
> the problem is related to the power system and not the result of a ship's anchor cutting the cable, as is thought to be the case in the other three incidents.
Thanks! A few more questions: * The FCC set a 4.6 Bln limit on the auction, if it did not reach the limit the restrictions would go away. Is this for each of the regional areas or is it 4.6 for all of them. * Google is exptected to bid 4.6 B on the auction, Did they indicate if they would lean on certain areas more than the others? * Thus it's still possible for google to bid more on certain regions, less on other regions. This could mean that someone else who bids more on the southeast would get the spectrum instead. * This has been referred to as "beachfront property" in terms of spectrum, why is that? * I've sporadically heard talk about emergency services (police etc) making use of this spectrum, is it bundled in this auction or is it outside?
Unfortunately there are many parts of it that I still don't understand. * It seems that it comes with several 22Mhz blocks. ' * Are they saying the actual 22mhz band or are they saying the first 22mhz of the 700 mhz band * Rules specify that it's split in four major areas, southeast, northeast, etc, what does this mean? * What four original restrictions did google want on auction? Which two were granted?

It's great news but keep in mind the entire procedure has not been cracked yet. There are three major layers of security in a Blu Ray Player 1) AACS (currently we have ways to sniff the code out of software, cat and mouse game for now) (Cracked - sort of) 2) BD+ (The virtual machine decrypting the AACS content) (Cracked) 3) BD ROM MARK - A small key that has been stored on the cd using alternate technological means. This is an extra key that is read using only BLU RAY players using mysterious methods.
Without the BD ROM Mark the disk can't be decrypted quite yet. The article makes no claim that this has been cracked.
Full Disclosure: I do contract work for several companies that make mobile gps / bardoce / magstripe enabled devices for similar purposes.
Why I do support this a) Improve productivity: The driver is on the job. As a capitalistic society we strive to improve productivity and, while sad, monitoring does do this. b) All cabs take credit cards: Have you ever had a bad cab experience? How about having no cash and driver not accepting credit because it's past 6 PM (wtf is with that rule anyhow) c) Bad Routes avoided: Looking at a map gives you some idea where you are and the driver would be less likely to take longer routes. Puts you, the consumer in control d) Better privacy: Remember the stories of the handheld credit card readers being used by dishonest restaurant employees to steal your credit card? You don't hand your card to anyone, you pay at the device e) Better oversight: If all the system use similar credit checking devices it's easier for regulatory groups to audit them -- versus having 30 different pos* devices
I see a trend here. On the other hand, if those contracts were permitted then I'd be having my own that read as follows:
