We can no longer buy iodine, or red phosphorus, or acetyl chloride, because they can be used to make meth. If someone makes a machine that can "print" arbitrary small molecules, what makes you think that The Authorities will view these machines any more tolerantly?
you can also processe those out of other things phospher for example can be processed out of urine (that was how it was discovered in the first place) iodine can be bought at in water purification kits for backpacking. where theres a will theres a way.
grey goo is already here we call it bacteria and guess what it hasn't eaten the planet, why because eating the planet require lots and lots of energy. scifi grey goo won't happen.
I would like to filter the following ever-expanding list of terms:
3d print, make community, maker, hackerspace, ruby, ruby on rails, disrupt, women in tech, code.org, zuckerberg
I need push updates on:
Bennett Haselton, hugh pickens, and
Thanks a million.
What you really need a greasemonkey userscript to change all Zuckerburg to Zoidberg.
That's not the real reason, they don't want anyone sneaking booze into place where they'd otherwise spend money on beer and drinks. Like stadiums, concerts, etc.
Don't believe everything a politician tells you, they get money from Bud, Coors, and Jack Daniels.
then why don't Bud Coors and Jack Daniels just make their own branded powdered alcohol.
So how does the whole per-file random AES key work? Since they're only shipping over the one 'key' parameter, the individual file keys have to be somehow deterministic right?
or are all of the keys are stored in a encrypted keyring where the key they give you unlocks all of the keys in the keyring which then unlocks all of your files.
It says this malware refuses to do anything if it detects VM. How to make my computer look like a VM?
My first guess is install vmware tools so it looks like a guest os?
I have actually wondered why they wouldn't check for things like that and use them as an attack vector for the host computer.
Just a few days ago I made the case why homeopathy or other "magical medicine" and the way it might be practiced today can offer at least one significant upside vis-a-vis regular medical treatment
That homeopathic substances probably offer no better remedy than placebos is not really news. However, they *do* offer cheap placebos, which also can be a good and useful thing. And placebos are effective, or at least have an effect, there are enough studies that prove that.
The problem is when the placebo effect is not powerfull enough to overcome a medical issue but real pharmaceuticals are and the people instead choose the placebo homeopathy because its natural and better when it really isn't. Or when the people selling the diluted sugar pills are charging equal or more that real effective pharmaceuticals.
Secondly the placebo effects also works when there are real medicines as well so you get two benefits (real and placebo). were homeopathy is just one(placebo).
The kernels default should be the revision the kernel implements. If the kernel implements five the value should be five. A report_acpi_ver= flag seems like a perfectly reasonable solution, but it should be up to the distros to override that with their boot loader configs; where someone might actually see it. If its really such a common problem that it makes sense to do that widely out of box in the first place.
Software should do the least astonishing thing, and I think having the kernel inaccurately report acpi support would qualify as astonishing.
Isn't working properly the least astonishing thing?
...and hosts file blocking can be too crude, especially against tracking.
don't say that outloud you will summon apk with such speech.
What's the advantage of distributing binaries other than binaries of GCC?
Because not everyone wants to run gentoo or LFS (linux from scratch).
Thank you Dice for pushing me to GitHub!
does github allow distributing binaries still? I thought they stopped doing that back like three years ago.
Stop defacing our money buddy.
I ain't you buddy pal.
Look at the products, skin lighteners, hair straighteners, plastic surgery, things that can damage the skin, scalp and cause lifelong disfigurement, but that promise ine thing... to be whiter
also hair curling irons, skin bronzer, plastic surgery (can be used both ways) tanning, hair dye promising to be darker.
some people just aren't satisfied with who they are.
I've noticed several design suggestions in your code.
