I rather prefer to see giant Tampax flying to Mars. At least, in our sad reality it will be some reason for good laugh.
(I know largest stages will stay orbiting our mother Earth, but still fun)

Perfect brand for rocket.

One thing producing performance-impacting patches for existing processor, another thing trying to sell and manufacture defective processor with known before launch vulnerability.

Yes, we should believe. I rather prefer to believe detailed technical reports like EFF do, with all details, than this bullshit with "well informed anonymous sources" that often turns to be "our imagination".

No problems, just Google will not accept payments directly, for example, and create MicroGoogle France, who provide service surprisingly similar to theirs.
Or they think those behemoths will give up on their billions just like that?

Again, such news should mention, when this quantum computer will crack typical asymmetric cryptos and all that long-term stored encrypted https dumps with embarrassing photos (yours too!), can be decrypted by Google or NSA.

Please dont use buzzwords suitable for mass media. They use _machine learning_, and it is far from being AI.

*sniff sniff*, smells like bullshit.
Isn't such agencies should come up with solid proof first, before accusing anyone? Or they became oligarch/multinationals mercenary - like law enforcement agencies in Putin Russia?
What if China cut, in retaliation, and in their traditions - much more harsh way, Apple? 1/4-1/3 of profit gone? (and other countries might enjoy following trend)

This "handy list" is bullshit and not precise at least in one particular entry: Lebanon.
Because Lebanon are not under "blanket sanctions" list, but specific entities (as in many others) is sanctioned.
The only exception is that US companies not allowed to ship any weapons to Lebanon, unless it is Lebanese Army.
Just FYI.

And what is interesting, AMD is immune to that, proof: https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/12/...

It gave very good insight in Russian government internals, but problem appeared before election, because his iphone battery aged, and you know...

Humanity knew properties of graphite, but graphene (which should be same thing) turned to be very different.

Or maybe some ARM dudes?
It's really purely politics, IMHO. If someone have chance to do something good, he should not give up trying to do so.

"Almost certainly" without even basic proof, just picked from nose.
Especially knowing, that in our modern age much more decent methods of communications exist.
So agent have to compromise himself buying receiver capable to tune 4625Khz (thats not easy to find), tune to this frequency and listen each day, raising even more suspicions.
While even at good old times they was reading newspapers or listening to local radio for steganographic-like messages, which looks much more innocent.

Absolutely theoretically - this frequency might be, as many others. And buzzer just may work to make sure frequency is not used by anyone else.
But transmitter definitely not, because it will be extremely stupid to run such component continuously, it will be destroyed on first strike. And if it activates dead hand on destruction, then some terrorists might destroy it as well, and trigger noke war.
So, most likely - no. One more myth.
