Really? Of course they will send you a reset password in email. The other option is that or a link.
Ideally it is only good for a single use and you then enter a new password.
How else would you do password recovery?

Because they edit it and select it.

Really Slashdot editors....
Try 1979 at a Ford plant in Detroit.

Really it is a new low when the editors on slashdot can not be bothered to use Google

"Honestly, things which 10 years ago would have been the domain of crackpots is now 100% fact."
No. I keep hearing this but you guys must have lived on another planet. The fact that all governments sucked up just about all international communications dates back to the invention of the telegraph and maybe back to the mail.
Any idea that they were not monitoring all clear text transmissions over the internet frankly I find just dumb. As far as meta data that was always up for grabs.
False flag operations? That is in the realm of tin foil hats and crackpots. Frankly the rest of it is just common knowledge to anyone with a brain.

Why don't we have a -1 crackpot mod.

In other words he has no idea what he is talking about and should be ignored.
Frankly as should this story.
Come on an anthropologist says nuclear power unsafe....
This is click bait of the level of the National Enquire. For SHAME SLASHDOT!

Seems like one could make a cape for BeagleBoard or an add on for Rpi with the IO and an emulator for the BBCMicro.

Actually I am impressed that it did see how similar Apes and people are. Honestly people getting upset over it are just a bit silly. The problem is people think that someone put person_of_african_descent == ape in the code and that is not true. The algorithm just confused one great ape with an expressive face with another. It is no more racist or intentional than the same system confusing a Camaro with a Firebird.
 

Network security yes.
the OMG Cisco is buying them and the Gov will spy on me now is what I could live without.

Thanks Googleing is all fine and good but a recommendation from someone that used it makes all the difference IMHO.

This is for a cluster that is being used not an exhibit in a glass box.
I think modifying the existing power supplies is probably the best way to go today. Replace the caps and possibly the voltage regulators with newer parts might be a really good way to go today.
I would suggest starting a project to create a modern PS that could be a drop in replacement for the old one. It could use a lot less power and be more reliable in the long run.

This organization would just be responsible for verifying that software is secure, not than an organization is secure. Just like you can still electrocute yourself with a UL listed device if you insist on using it in an unsafe manner, it will be entirely possible for organizations to use CyberUL software in horribly insecure ways. The point of the listing is just to verify that the software can be used securely, if you keep it patched and use it correctly.

The headline is horribly misleading. Microsoft is absolutely not selling Bing Maps. They are selling the team that has been gathering street-view imagery. The companies haven't released many details on the deal, but you can imagine that since Uber already has a fleet of vehicles driving around they could pay drivers to capture this imagery while delivering people and save a fair bit of money.
