No turning wheels means no parallel parking. Zero turning radius would be cool, but even with complete differential steering that would scrub the tires a bit much. I don't think you could practically remove steering tires entirely. I t

An xray or optical inspection would never be able to detect the doping of the silicon so it's possible to alter the behavior of the chip in such a way as to allow an attacker to cripple something like Intel's random number generat

Exactly, why can't any of their sources just swipe one of the unpopulated PCBs? Even just having a physical circuit board with 6 extra pads added onto it would at least give a hint of truth to their claims.

Not really. If there was a decompression the very first thing that the pilot would do is immediately descend to 10,000 feet. The aircraft is one giant pressure vessel with wings strapped to the sides. Taking that up into thin atmosphere whe

That doesn't change the fact that Mojang didn't make MCP. If Searge didn't step up and do it there's no reason to believe that Mojang ever would have come up with something similar. Mojang promised for years and years th

The Mod Coder Pack wasn't developed by Mojang. MCP is the work of the community to reverse engineer and deobfuscate Mojang's binaries. The whole point of creating the MCP in the first place was to get around Mojang's use of t

That's like saying everything is open source if you can write assembly. Minecraft only ever released binaries and they also went out of their way to use an obfuscator so all of the class and method names are garbage and change every up

It has nothing to do with the size of any wires. The chip itself is a solid wafer of silicon with a tiny bit of copper, aluminum, etc deposited on top. It's all one solid piece though, the silicon die itself is never going to be damage

Not just that, less code (and simple code) = much easier to prove that the code is correct.

Some backdoors can be almost impossible to detect with any kind of traditional wafer inspection tools. E.g., it might be possible to transparently cripple something like Intel's RdRand instruction by changing only the doping on some of

Within half a phase. And not to nitpick, but the important part isn't that it's 0V, it's that it's 0A which isn't the same point when dealing with inductive loads.

Line of sight wouldn't be an issue, range and aiming would be the problem. The GPS satellites are in a bunch of orbital planes so a weapon wouldn't try to rendezvous with each target, it would need to hit them from another orbit.
