My immediate thought was captured ie. "Iran successfully landed our UAV by transmitting false GPS data".

This language is used on the Wikipedia page about that incident.

Not going to happen while Wolfram runs the company.

Does anyone know how DoH works in browsers when connected to a new WiFi network with a captive portals?

They could simply decouple the apps from the OS, like Android. Safari and Mail.app do not need to be tied to OS releases.

Android OS releases do not get nearly as much fanfare because a lot of core functionality is decoupled from the OS: app store(s), mail clients, browsers, todo lists, even the text messaging apps and some security frameworks.

Which of course is exactly why Apple keeps everything in one big release. They want lots of press talking about the brand new features.

I have been put off by Elasticsearch's complexity a number of times. Can I ask why with searching a limited about of text you didn't juse use Postgres' full-text search?

It only faded away in the West. While staying at a hotel in Africa not long ago I was served Coke in a glass bottle over 15 years old. The bottle looked like what you would expect from a glass bottle that has been use for that long, but the Coke tasted just as good as it usually does.

Wars are won with logistics not guns. Getting troops and supplies across the country would be key to defending it from an invasion.

The interstate highway system was built in part for military purposes and partly designed by the Army:

The lawyers would argue that by enriching them companies are less likely to engage in bad behavior.

But I agree. I am tired of getting practically nothing from class action lawsuits, while lawyers who did not get harmed walk away with millions.

It says a single transaction generates almost 300kg of CO2. Surely not. 95g of e-waste also seems incredible. And 600 kwh of energy per transaction? Really.

Edit: based on a cost of electricity at $0.1/kwh, and assuming bitcoin operators break even and are rational, one transaction costs less than 3kw of energy:

If it cost 600kwh, we would assume a transaction would cost at least $60.

Electricity is probably a lot cheaper in China. If it was half as much we would be looking at under 6kwh of electricity at the most.

Computer Science (usually at least in my experience) both teaches programming and expects proficiency in programming.

My friends who did mechanical engineering had to take classes on tool making.

Meanwhile nowadays you have metal sculpturers who cannot weld.

The Norway bridge was also wood while the MIT students argued it was intended to be stone.

That is like saying <insert app here> only cost $99 to develop (cost of apple dev account). Or suxnet cost $2.50 (the cost of a cheap 2gb USB pen drive)

It ignore the labour, high level engineering and resources needed to execute a supply chain attack like this.

I am surprised Amazon has not jumped in the game, renting out an accelerator like Google does with the TPUs

Can you give an example on how to word a question?

> While the team is currently evaluating something like an in-sim store for supplemental content, there will be no requirements to use it, and no restrictions of any kind on downloading freeware or payware add-ons from other sources.

Great news. I was sure when I first heard the announcement Microsoft was going to try control the market, which would ruin the ecosystem.

According to Wikipedia the Muslim population of the country is split 64–69% Shia and 29-34% Sunni.

The Sunni minority once ruled but now the Shia majority rule and the government is said to be aligned with Shia-majority Iran.

It looks great and I am excited to try it. My only concern is the business model....because it is not clear what that it. Can you enlighten us?

It's the same chemical allyl isothiocyanate producing the flavor one way or the other. Horseradish isn't faking the flavor.

That is good! I guess they will eventually transition to this.

Chrome desperately needs a trigger whereby an extension can access a site's data only if there has been an interaction such clicking a button on the toolbar or the right click menu.

Yes I was talking within the context of the article and the parent I was replying to. Google airsoft BBs, and search aliexpress. The term BB is frequently used by manufacturers to refer to plastic BBs, at least within China and Taiwan.

Source: a friend is a major importer into the USA.

> 1,000 pellets for air guns

Airgun pellets are not BBs. BBs are small lightweight plastic spheres. Airgun pellets are ammunition for airguns, they are usually moulded lead or a lead free alloy. Some pellets may be metal ball bearings, but usually that are shaped with a round or bullet like head and a flange at the back.

Search AliExpress.com. There are loads of sellers of plastic BBs. I doubt they are licensed. But there is notably no airgun pellets for sale!

And failing that linkedIn.

So they detained him and then found a reason: plastic BBs in a checked bag. Less dangerous than the plastic knives they serve with food in the cabin.

China strictly controls ammunition inside China. There is no way plastic BBs are considered ammunition.

... But if China does they better stop the illegal export of BBs and airsoft guns to the USA. Taiwan will happily increase production.

This is not surprising. Colt has been hanging by a thread ever since coming back out of Chapter 11 in 2015, but has been in all sorts of financial woes since the mid 1980s. They are just trying to survive at this point.

If labor relations interests you, it's a fascinating company. They had a long stand off with the union in the mid to late 80s. They replaced all Union staff who had striked. Four or five years later the union eventually won and all the existing staff, who were hired during the 5 year strike, were fired and the old union staff replaced them. Not only that but the union got given a significant chunk of the company.

The problem was that the old staff could not operate the updated machinery. The military unhappy with the quality canceled contracts. It was a disaster and ended up killing the company and they went into chapter 11 for the first time. That was the end of Colt.

There is a school of thought that less trash cans reduces litter. I am a little skeptical of the idea but I see the point.

It's not free, it's now a subscription for people who already paid. Tapatalk did the same thing recently. It is a trend that once "Premium" paid apps plateau in users they go subscription ("free"). No doubt we will start seeing ads etc.

The alternative is apps being sold to shady outfits that inject spyware. For example Cheetah Mobile bought QuickPic and when Chinafire sold SuperSU to a American-based shell company.

If app stores allowed paid version upgrades this trend might not have happened.

Apologies that was in fact a typo.
