They do have a fix. Its called 'SELinux for Android' (SEforAndroid).

"Security Enhancements for Android (SE for Android) is a project to identify and address critical gaps in the security of Android. Initially, the project is enabling the use of SELinux in Android in order to limit the damage that can be done by flawed or malicious apps and in order to enforce separation guarantees between apps. However, the scope of the project is not limited to SELinux."

In fact its part of the latest Android distributions (Android 4.3+) but its not generally enabled by default yet. Eventually we should be able to lock down the device to prevent all kinds of malware, but unfortunately it doesn't block users from being stupid and installing apps from the more seedy places. Chances are if you install a hacked app you'll just grant it all kinds of permissions that you shouldn't. It can't fix 'stupid'.

Keep in mind this is not really a freely moving particle being measured, and is actually a bound electron(s) being measured multiple times as it orbits the same atom. And yes, the act of measuring the electron can make it jump to its neighbouring atom's nucleolus, but that would leave a positive void which some other electron would quickly find because of zero resistance of the substrate.

No, I think it was a DeLorean DMC-12. No idea why they needed all that radioactive stuff.

Seen leaving the scene of the crime here: http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-bI0WbLHBXyY/Tix4ZFMCZ_I/AAAAAAABoSM/1YqK064jHsY/s640/back+to+the+future+whitewalls.jpg
and I think they need to get their engine checked.

Unfortunately, the average person that can afford one is not 'an excellent driver' by any stretch of the imagination, just a very rich one, and likely used to doing what they want in life. Now that isn't saying that a wealthy driver can't afford to get the kind of training required to learn how to control a machine like that, its just that way too many of them don't even get the car home much less to the track to get that required instruction.

There is a kind of psychology that takes hold when you feel that kind of raw uncontrollable power at the mere tap of your foot. To someone who spent the last few days dreaming about the experience and just signed the papers is not about to let the mere lack of training keep them from their god like machinery. The urge to 'push it' is just overwhelming, and the traffic statistics agree. Anyone trying to take one of these bullets off the showroom lot should have special training before ever turning the key.

When you can just pop in a TAILS LiveCD why do you need to buy hardware?

One out of 632,000 unnamed officers (http://www.bls.gov/oes/current/oes333051.htm) says he won't arrest Julian Assange, leaving only 631,999 left to independently decide if they will choose to do it. Now what are the odds of that happening? Funny, my calculator must be broke, is says (631,999 / 632,000) = 1.0 Hmmm, maybe a slide rule will do better...

While I would agree with your statement about the constrained environment in general, there have been a lot of security flaws in javascript across all current day browsers.

http://search.cert.org/search?client=default_frontend&site=default_collection&output=xml_no_dtd&proxystylesheet=default_frontend&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&as_q=javascript+&num=10&btnG=Search&as_epq=&as_oq=exploit&as_eq=&lr=&as_ft=i&as_filetype=&as_occt=any&as_dt=i&as_sitesearch=&sort=&as_lq=

The above search at CERT.org has 814 hits for "javascript & exploit" alone.

What more, the remote site would have access to your browser environment until you change to another HTML page, unless they first take advantage of little tricks to stay persistent. The longer they have to poke around your javascript environment the sooner they find the next big bug to hack into the system. All software has bugs, it just a matter of time to find one.

Ok, supposing that instead of presenting a command line to the browser user the websocket/javascript instead installed a reverse command line back to the server, essentially giving a remote user access to the internal commands within the browser via the javascript kernel. All the remote user needs is a bug. plugin, or other feature that allows the browser to perform operations on the websurfer's host, like a fly-by install of malware or scraping the user environment of all information available. What prevents this scenario? How would the user even know other than the browser got reaaaalllly slooooowwwww.....

Yes, it describes a test of the nature of entanglement. It is not a physical description or even a theory of how entanglement happens in the physical world. It provides no physical explinations, but rathet excluding some,and adding to the current mystery.

Looks to me like a simple Yagi antenna inside of a waveguide. Inside a waveguide, and for an optimum tuned Yagi, the signal would have to be directionally pointed at this setup. Its not like you are going to snag some arbitrary signal that isn't pointed in your general direction. Perhaps if you are eating lunch on a picnic table while standing in front of a microwave repeater, you might be able to charge your cell phone. But then you needed to carry this rig with you while the extra battery option would clearly take less space. Maybe if it cam in an inflatable bubble with mylar deflectors it could be small enough to be practice? If you are not mobile then what is the use case for this?

It means they accomplished a completely new demonstration of what that they can not even begin to explain, except mathematically of course.

.
The mathematics is merely a statistical description of the observations, not details on the mechanism for the underlying process. Please wake me when they describe the actual underlying process.

It simply forces the Bots, like everyone else who is turning off tracking, to accept cookies so that they can be tracked across the Internet. Sounds like a _real_ solution to me </not>.

The original idea is way too obtuse and subjective for anyone to get the singular answer correct. How many people will describe the same pattern in a Rorschach test, when everybody visually sees the pattern in them just a little different, and then uses a different vocabulary of experience to describe them. This would be much a better technology for generating personal encryption keys that nobody else can guess.

Wait what.. A whole ten seconds to download the book? I could buy 100 books in the time you would need to drive to your local book store. And that includes reading what the book is about and deciding if I'd like it or not.

The question I would bring up is whether Kindle has the book in its inventory. I buy lots of science and technical books, but not all are released for the Kindle. For those I can click a link to request the publisher to convert it for the kindle, but more likely, at least for the short term, I am just SOL.

I've had my Kindle 2 since Feb 2009, so four+ years and counting, of using it daily.

Every day, to work and back it reads to me via text-to-speach while I am driving. Its the best text-to-speech I have come across. I don't think the newer ones (aka fire) can do what I want, so I'm not trading it in. The bubble membrane keyboard, with a few snips of tape for tactile location of the proper keys, allows me to operate it without having to be distracted. I never need to look at it. The touch interface kindles could never do that, and I don't think the Android version even has text-to-speech, or at least all my kindle devices have text-to-speech that totally sucks in comparison.

They managed to edge out the Prius by a whole 1.2 mph!

I guess its time to trade in my Prius for a car costing twice as much, but can't go as far? But just think about how cool I'll be not getting there!

Actually, I do want one. Disregard all my snide cynicism above. I'm sure its one nice vehicle, but I had to point out the minor speed difference. I can certainly attest to how fast the Prius can go, just don't ask me how I know. ;)
