Sony had to be hacked (Yes again) and their sales numbers changed. Hey at least it made Slashdot.

An intern in about 2 hours could turn this all into text. A high quality ADF scanner with quality OCR software would chew this up and produce a couple of MB of text files. All I can say is, its 2011 and this is a state government, we should be surprised they are using email at all.

Of Course the passwords will be simple, Most people setup their accounts on the system with the controller. They just wanted to get past the screens to play with their new system so they wanted something really simple that they could forget. If they ever needed to actually get in they could just reset it in theory. They could of used a strong password but we know people dont do that.

I assume if your using 2 factor authentication it prevents you from an attack like this, because the attacker does not have your 2nd factor only your password?

Not exactly You have to use the spacers in a case so you don't ground out the board on the case. If you don't do this the PC will not power on, its a common first time builder mistake. You ground the PC with the power supply and its connection to the wall.

There is no Android version! This is Slashdot after all, we like to have customization on our mobile devices, not just one man's way.

Simple concept yes, but simple to scale? no, simple to manage adding new features? no simple to manage adding 100M new accounts a year?, no Simple to do way over 50 million tweets a day? no In January of this year they were doing 50M tweets a day, but they have added 100M users since then. Just think of how many they are doing now, so yes they need a CEO http://blog.twitter.com/2010/02/measuring-tweets.html Plus they have to figure out how to make money on all of this.

The fact that his dad is a Patent lawyer and founder of a patent company is quite important here.

The Sony NEX-5 and NEX-3 and also 4/3s frame digital cameras are technically not DSLR's because they do not have mirrors but are larger than a point and shoot and have detachable lenses. Where do they fit in this silly ban? Also remember this is the country that wanted to ban the Blackberry and then backed down.

I am sorry but this is not a flaw in the game at all. Its a flaw in the maintenance of everyone's computer. When you play a game you have to assume it is taxing your computer and its getting hot. Any taxing game will do this to a computer that is as people have said does not have adequate airflow, overclocked to an extreme, or just dirty. It doesn't help that the game came out during the hottest part of the summer in many areas of the country. This article is just a grab for eyeballs and clicks of ads, Slashdot is just helping this.

But running OpenDNS is the first step to correcting this problem. And with DD-WRT this can be fixed in the next update now that its a known problem, if you run the default Firmware of your router who knows when it will be fixed.

Just had to post that everyone should be running OpenDNS and if possible DD-WRT of Tomato (for homes). You just cant beat that combo. It's fast, secure, and offers tons of security/configuration features that no one else does.

hahahaha not falling for this one bud.

Thanks for the notice. I just logged in and upgraded mine. Now to do the other sites later tonight.
