Don't worry, they had to stop digging because the local authorities mysteriously started insisting the excavators apply for some new permits. Those responsible for the safekeeping of the vault with the Holy grail and the Ark of the Covenant, etc are already in the process of using one of the secret secondary backdoors out of the facility to move all the valuables to one of the backup storage vaults.

By the time they resume digging, there will be an empty chamber for them to find.

In other words... the article is a dramatization, also known as clickbait.

As history has shown that does not work in a dictatorship.

History has shown that Socialism does not work period. It does not matter the type of government.

Of course those people are not going to officially talk because we still go after Nazis for qar crimes.

Yes, this is a problem. If we want to learn what happened, then we need to hand out immunity against further prosecutions for people who talk.

Seen what North Korea looks like at night?

In North Korea, less than 25% of the population has any access to electric power. I doubt if there will be a whole lot of DVD watching..... maybe in schools, or when the rich guy down the street has a party and invites the whole street block to his/her showing of the DVD.

Except there's no definitive way to detect if a provider implements BCP38 or not. We'll just all claim that we do implement BCP38, and it will be up to the upstream to prove otherwise, and contact us about the issue with evidence and proof, so we can fix that case, and then they no longer have a source of data to prove that BCP38 isn't implemented.

Or just revisit the requirements, to make sure you aren't imposing some requirements that are not strictly necessary for the job.

Never publish your real evidence that could compromise the investigation, just the circumstantial bits to get the public interested.

If it was just circumstantial bits, then they can't come to a conclusion, of course. The presumption is they have more info

True. What we should really do is require Bars have interlock devices.

Require all bars and restaurants with a license to sell alcoholic beverages to have patrons check all vehicle operating keys and control all exits to their facilities and check and record BAC of all patrons before they may leave.

In the event that any person who visited the bar is found to have committed public drunkenness, DUI, or disorderly conduct while drunk outside the premises, then the bar will be fined a minimum of $1000 DUI per incident and be liable for 75% of any damages and additional fees, for allowing the person to leave with a BAC above the legal limit.

Well, sure, you can pay them to work from home in India, but if the point is to get that work back into your GDP then ...

Thunderbolt is more like USB to the user - it's a thing you use to connect untrusted devices to your system.

No. USB is not safe either. Don't plug untrusted devices into your system's I/O ports, period.

USB, Firewire, eSATA, SAS, and Thunderbolt do not have a security model.

Thunderbolt just happens to have more capabilities since there is direct access to the PCI bus, and this is also where the greater performance comes in.

With greater capabilities and access comes greater possibilities of abuse from untrusted components. Including the possibility of malicious option ROMs and malicious access to other hardware devices attached to the bus.

Nope. Just because Mr Stewart isn't around doesn't mean new updates/reshuffles won't be coming out every year.

First of all.... he's probably already written the plan for next 2 to 3 year's worth of versions of the books

Second of all.... his editor can continue to make minor updates to the book ad infintium.

There is no good business reason for you to have my social security number on your computer to write out my paycheck.

99% of the information in the personnel file is stuff not used but once or twice a year that nobody has any legitimate business looking at.

Yes. Lets air-gap the email system. That would work well.

No, foo. It's called basic common sense -- keeping confidential medical records, SSNs, and personnel files in paper format only, and not allowing them to be scanned or placed in a system connected to the general business intranet, or "the cloud".

This is the sort of shit that gets up-moderated on Slashdot nowadays? Really?
