You can plug in a USB keyboard and hit F1 just fine.
Back in the day, you used to need a PS/2 keyboard to press F1 even if you had a USB keyboard because the BIOS didn't support the USB keyboard. This is no different.
I wouldn't be so sure......check out the wikipedia article on the format. In my testing (was working on a cash register app for a client), I found that many of my own cards included the number.
I read the guy's own post about it. He reported what he could do and not the steps required to exploit it. The Facebook team couldn't reproduce it as a bug (since there were no repro steps) and closed it as "not a bug".
So really, the problem was one of communication. The guy has the problem a lot of my clients/users have in that they don't give enough detail to investigate the bug and Facebook didn't really follow what he was trying to say (since he just sent them links saying "look what I did"). I'm not saying he didn't legitimately find an exploit and probably deserves some bounty ($500 is nothing to a company like Facebook), but Facebook should probably have some guidelines for how to submit bugs.
Aside - what any bug report needs: * What action were you taking? * What result did you observe? * What result did you expect? * Are there specific data values that always exhibit the symptom? * Are there specific data values that do not exhibit the symptom? * Reproduction steps (be as detailed as possible) * Any other useful details about the bug (error messages, screen shots, etc.)
The issue I haven't seen covered in the media (I haven't read his release, so I don't know if Musk covered it) is the question of whether there would be any issues with the sun being "lensed" by the tube......and whether that would cause issues either inside (extra heat?) or outside the tube (magnifying glass effect?). All of the rest of it seems reasonable technology wise........
My policy has an out of pocket maximum for individuals and for family. If an individual reaches the max, they don't pay for the rest of the year. If the family combines to reach the family max, no one pays for the rest of the year. How is that any different than the 12.7K max per person?
Work with all of those built-in connectors that so many devices (cars, radios, etc.) all seem to love. [And I think this a terrible thing......because I like my non-iOS devices.]
I'd like to see the dock connection get standardized in terms of placement and jack so that any device can dock with any other device. My car has a built in iPod port......that I'll never use. The salesman thought it was a selling point (it wasn't -- but I got the car for other reasons).
There was an entire end-cap full of them when I went grocery shopping yesterday.......I passed them up, but I could have easily filled several shopping carts with them. Had I known I could still turn a profit on them, I might have grabbed a few.
Hak5 covered this in a couple of recent podcasts. Unfortunately, they've found some security issues with it. It's better than nothing but not as secure as you would want.
In the case of PGP / RSA / etc, but short cut is the key. If the CPU can decrypt the message, it has the decryption key.....and therefore, you can obtain the key and have the same shortcut.....and thus, decrypt the message in a lot less than "years".
The problem you present is trying to break encryption without the shortcut.....or trying to put together the jigsaw by looking at the backs.
While this is offtopic to the article, I've had really good luck with ZenniOptical.com and others have used similar sites. A full set of glasses for under $30 shipped to your door (as cheap as $10 without additional upgrades). We normally order two or three pairs so that if they break a pair, there is always a backup. Lead time on orders is usually about 2 weeks, so plan accordingly on re-orders.
Make sure you get your pupilary distance (distance between your pupils) when you get your prescription. They don't normally give that unless requested. And yes, you can find eye doctors that don't require you to get glasses at their shop (I normally go to whoever is associated with the local big-box store).
How is waiting hours for shower curtain rings any different than clicking the buy it button and waiting a few days for it to show up at your door. I know this is the "now" society, but I think the wait factor isn't that bad.
I do like rope light along the ground......it's less obnoxious and less blinding. Plus, you can go lower power since the light is where you need it......
Try changing the angle of the light so that it points down more than it does out. It should still provide plenty of light while you are out there, but it shouldn't affect your neighbor as much.
Also, raise the light and angle it closer to straight up and down. The it will provide plenty of light but reduce the cast-off. The problem the neighbor faces is usually less a problem of how bright it is, but how direct the light is.
So, if I watch you unlock your phone once, I can usually narrow each choice down to 4 digits based in the position of your finger (256 choices without knowing any).....if I can glimpse even one of your digits without knowing position, I can get that number down to 192. If I can identify that digit as early or late or middle, that drops to 128. If I have 100 tries, I don't really need to worry about being locked out.
If I have all but two of your digits, I don't have to worry about lockout at all.
I had just sent the below list of things required in a bug report to a group of users/testers this morning......
In general, the following items should be included when possible: â Reproduction steps â Expected behavior â Observed behavior â If available, any related steps or values that worked (for example when a bug âoesometimesâ happens, itâ(TM)s useful to know when it works and when it doesnâ(TM)t)
Then, the trick is to reject or de-prioritize any bug that doesn't conform to the above. Train the users that if they provide accurate information, they get quicker response. It works for Pavlov.

Yep. Family plans for 2 phones aren't a deal, but family plans for 5 phones (like I have) are well worth it.

You can print SpongeBob on to a transparent sticker using your inkjet printer. Then you apply the sticker to your freshly printed case.....
Or you can get a bedazzler if you want the beads.

With newer phones being synced to the cloud, wiping my phone is less of an issue today than it was a few years ago......
They didn't censor the content.....the just made it harder to find. Sensational headline.
When I read the headline, I checked my calendar to make sure today wasn't April 1st........
It's probably buried in the TOS that you implicitly agreed to when you opened the box, so they're covered.
