    Is this the source we are looking for? http://www.businessweek.com/articles/2013-07-03/security-enhanced-android-nsa-edition#r=nav-fs
  2. After some off-again, on-again drama over the past few days, it looks as if Nintendo is going to allow organizers to stream footage of the Super Smash Bros. portion of this weekend's Vegas EVO fighting game tournament over the Internet to worldwide spectators. But an interesting wrinkle was added to the story yesterday when EVO co-organizer Joey "MrWizard" Cuellar revealed in an interview with OneMoreGameTV that Nintendo initially wanted to prevent Smash Bros. from being played at the tournament altogether. Unfortunately this law and Nintendo can do what ever they want to their IP. We must respect it OR vote to change the law.
  3. The talk on some Live Streams regarding "Linus Likes & Slick's Picks" has got me thinking that it might become to cumbersome to rate products as soon as they come out. A situation: So lets say that two products come out, item A is great, receives the 'LMG Award" only because item B has serious but simple issues. The video of item A receiving the award gets publish, item B or all the other losers don't have to be mentioned. A month or so later item B update gets released to the public. Do you take back item A award? Remove the video? Publish item B.2 reviving the award? Now two competing products have the same award. Which now makes the award watered down, just for show and meaningless. Maybe item B is known for being prompted with their up dates. Should everything be delayed for something that may or may not be released? How long should we wait? Or item B.2 is/was under NDA and you have to 'pretend' it's never coming out. But the audience wants item A to get the award, maybe to push item B to update. The problem: Compare to a lot of other consumer products, tech items get out dated quick. Yet, you want to give enough time for the manufactures to update their items and/or the consumer to adjust to the new tech. My solution: Establish a 'Hall of Fame" but have more current items in it then the traditional hall of fames. This can be accomplished by having a requirement that items must have been released to the public at between 1 to 3 years ago. Which is still a long time in the tech world but not to long were it is irreverent to recommend to buy today. You can make it a big thing, every quarter can have an induction night for 3 different categories every time. Or at the end of every month can be a different but very broad category. Any way, multiple items can be inducted. This would also allow you to have two competing items receiving attention without tarnishing the award.
  4. 170 Displays in the Input Lag Database have just be added. http://www.displaylag.com/display-database/ Using the Lag Tester Soomro rates the screens by "Excellent," "Great," "Okay" and "Bad," as defined here. All screens are listed by the variable of your choosing – brand, size, resolution, etc. – right here. The lag in question occurs due to additional processing by the display, which can cause a delay between your button presses and the results appearing on-screen.

  6. Looks like it will also have a power brick. But more importantly, Where's the VGA port? lol

  9. 21.5" Dell S2240L 1080p IPS-panel, LED-backlit LCD Monitor for $159.99 with free shipping (normally $199.99). Has anyone been watching the monitor market, Is this a good deal? http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/productdetail.aspx?c=us&cs=19&l=en&sku=320-9802&dgc=BA&cid=262625&lid=4756320&acd=12309179580398131
  10. Because he is under 18 years old, he did not qualify. However on its website, the Bug Bounty Program does not appear to have an age guideline. https://www.paypal.com/us/webapps/mpp/security/reporting-security-issues https://www.computerworld.com/s/article/9239549/PayPal_denies_teenager_reward_for_finding_website_bug What I learned is that Google, Facebook, Mozilla and PayPal hand out rewards for finding vulnerabilities, except for Microsoft. I guess M$ would go broke if they did!
  11. A Tennessee man demonstrating what kind of damage can be done by the plastic shell, created by 3-D-printing. There is no way to regulate what gets built in a garage. Much less a 3D printer. Do you think there should be regulations on what DIY printers should and shouldn't be allowed to create?
  12. "I'm sorry I can only do one thing at a time." "Should we just play Chopsticks?” The commercial is a takeoff of Apple’s iPad Mini piano commercial. In the Microsoft version. Apple’s personal digital assistant Siri, all the while showing off the advantages of a Windows 8 tablet over the iPad. When need more commercials camparing products, Linus https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=86JMcy5OqZA
  13. As a kid Bill Nye the Science Guy was my favorite science show, and then I loved watching The Universe on the History channel. Now I came across this really good movie about quantum physics that I want to share with you here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rdulFAR0-Aw Post your favorite science shows! I like to educate my self while I wait for the next upload.
  14. English language calls for the hard G sound when before a soft vowel (i, e, or y). There are exceptions of course... Think of giraffe, German, or analogy.
