What did she do in the others?

To address the affects of global warming, some idiot has decided to address it by taking the heat out of one system (in this case sea water) and pretending it magically doesn't go anywhere.

Oh, and "affects"? Seriously? EFFECTS.

"hackers or malware that already have a foothold on a user's computer"

So they're owned anyway.

This is the digital equivalent of saying "if there's a burglar already inside your house, he might steal your shit".

Firefox for daily use, Chrome when I'm opening a PDF because Firefoxes latest update (after the addin certificate fiasco forced me to unwillingly upgrade) is bugged, and spawns infinite windows when opening a PDF.

How does anyone know if the class exists or not before it is observed?

> Hence, deleting or modifying a file is impossible without elevation of credential/privilege.

And no malware has ever escalated it's privileges to that of admin or root, so everythings good, right?

Skynet gains the ability to recognize some twat grinning inanely over a spaghetti carbonara.

"Yeah, thats discrimination and is infact illegal"

Stop spouting nonsense to validate what is otherwise a pretty cogent post.

Being unemployed is NOT a protected class, and hence landlords (and anyone else) can discriminate on that basis.

" and will also act on extensions compromising user privacy or circumventing user consent or control"

And one day later fuck up the entire add-on system with a broken certificate, compromising every users privacy and circumventing user consent or control

Just because their Rewind video sucked balls and garned universal condemnation does not mean "organized groups are weaponizing the downvote button". They are just expressing their discontent.

YouTube's problem is that they *still* don't get it. They have no idea why their platform works, treat content creators like numbers, and think PC mumbo-jumbo is actually going to be respected outside left-wing echo chambers and pressure groups.

Instagram has been using the Facebook CDN to deliver images for at least a year already. And making friend suggestions for Instagram based on your FB friends list ...

Failing to understand why this is even "news".

Todays thread about something that has been released under a CC licence, free for anyone to use or modify provided the attribute the source ... and then wanting to add EXTRA conditions after the fact because someone uses it in a way they don't like.

That's not how licences work. If you want more restrictions, or a non-profit clause, then use the correct licence to begin with.

People go on Slashdot to find answers to coding questions. Why in fucks name would anyone bother (or even feel the need) to identify their gender or race, if they weren't deliberately baiting for a response?

If you're going to start a post (anywhere) with "as a black disabled lesbian", what response are you trying to ellicit in the first place?

This is like telling an alcoholic the alcohol content of the drink in their hand, and expecting them to quit immediately.

Addicts don't really care about odds.

I wondered this also. I'm guessing at that time, they perhaps didn't have MUL or DIV instructions, or even the concept of SHL or ROL which would have allowed a test for "divisible by 2".

So I'm guessing they started with a "factor", example 2, added it together repeatedly until it equalled or was greater than the target, remembering how many additions were made. If equal to the target, repeat the addition half the number of times, and replace that with the old target, and output 2 as a factor. If greater than the target, try the next "factor" 3,5,7 etc etc.

Repeat until target = 0

It's surprising how relatively recent native MUL and DIV operations are in processors.
