I'd like to have a go at the database myself. Is it included in the article (which I don't have access to)? (It should be, IMHO, because how do you otherwise replicate their results?) Can it be found elsewhere?
Grab a pair of shoes and start walking. Let us know when you've solved the travelling salesman problem.
Found him! He's right now in Garmisch-Partenkirchen. Well, that was easy enough.
What tablets are to recommend for running some more ordinary operating system, like Debian or Ubuntu?
Once you find a profitable strategy that works, and scales to large large amounts, Kelly is really useful to know.
Did you find such a thing? Tell us more, please, as much as you are comfortable with!
Maybe it's obvious, but I'm clueless. Why did they not want him to report on "shootouts and other activities"? I would have guessed they rather wanted their brutal behaviour to be known. What activities was it they did not want reported on?
Blame samzenpus. My submission said 1e-18.
So editors aren't just too lazy to shape up submissions, they actively make them worse? This is really disappointing. What are you doing, Slashdot editors?
it surfaced in gas-powered form, now the company has released video of a fully-electric version
First there was gas light, now we have electric light.
Why would all this put the prosecutor in any sort of favourable light (so that anyone would be interested in offering him sought-after positions)?
Inventor of the text file?
Feynman's "popular press photos" are all from his middle age when he was earning his 2nd Nobel
I'm not aware that Feynman received the Nobel prize more than once. (Sorry to pick on unimportant details here, I'm just so concerned about the children, that they don't get miseducated.)
Achieving MITM status is a very different thing from installing a rootkit, in my mind. The summary left out how the two could be connected but the article mention something about it:
Coderman’s report suggests that, like Wi-Fi MITM, which regularly harasses surfers at DEF CONs and other hacker conventions, the attackers were able to inject custom packets into the 4G and CDMA data stream. These forged packets allowed the attackers to create on-screen prompts that, if clicked, installed a rootkit on the PC or Android device.
So, to install the rootkit, you also need to exploit a bug in the user. Where do I file the bug report?
Is BlackBerry being a responsible part of British society, or is it overstepping its bounds?
These useless questions at the end! Is Slashdot trying to look like journalism or is it mocking it for its wicked ways?
Thank's for the info. I suppose that would allow me to let my guard down against MeeGo, then. Now when someone only makes a phone with this OS and a physical keyboard and high performance and a good battery life, I might actually go ahead and upgrade from my current ten year old phone! Yay!
Maybe one of these companies can start selling MeeGo phones for those of us who want pocket computers.
Yes! Or, even better, Meamo, which I understand is more Debian-like (deb packages, for example), rather than Fedora-esque as MeeGo (RPM packages).
Why doesn't the submitter link to the actual articles? Why don't the editors make sure those links are included before the story is posted? Why is there at all a link to ScienceBlog? All relevant information the blog post contains would fit into a Slashdot summary.
Does anyone have the links to the papers so we can actually read about this work?
