The moment that North Korea crosses the line China will simply roll through the undefended Northern border, dismantle NK's military, and install a new puppet regime from within the current government. Simple as that.

China doesn't want war. Period. I don't think you realize how many affluent Chinese tourists there are in Seoul. The moment China lets North Korea cross the DMZ is the moment China invades North Korea themselves and installs some new puppet

Just so I can defuse lots of the commentary that always comes up whenever North Korea is mentioned: 1) Most of NK's artillery is not in range of Seoul, the few that are in range of Seoul are in range of the northern part of Greater Seoul (e

If they seized his computer they wouldn't know his SR name unless he left SR logged in and the TOR browser open. The TOR browser doesn't save credentials otherwise.

I do agree with all of your advice, but there is something more to this. If it was a simple package intercept alone, there would be no way for them to link the suspect to SR, let alone link him to a certain SR profile, let alone getting acc

I can see lots of possibilities for new-age arcades with this in mind. Something like a real-world holodeck could feasibly come together with some investment. Option 1: Just an omnidirectional treadmill with kneepad and wrist sensors. This

I think the reason for this is quite simple: Facebook can only sell you on privacy changes by trying to convince you of a better service/more convenience. The U.S. Intelligence Community and Congress can sell you on surveillance by trying t

Great device, I owned one of these as well. The communicators were my smartphone of choice until the touchscreen enabled Sony Ericsson P800 came out in 2002. Oddly enough, you can see a lot of the iPhone in the P800. http://www.mobileburn.

Good catch, somehow I thought the Newton was released later, thanks for the correction. Upon further research, Microsoft seems to have begun their handheld efforts with WinPad and the Pegasus project in 1994, which finally materialized as W

I am not quite sure if I buy this argument. Microsoft certainly attempts to "productize", they simply fail on execution: When the iPod was still "only" an MP3 player, Microsoft was pushing video capable PMPs through their PMC software. Micr

Of course, Apple provides the details for those who care to look, just that it hides the information from the everyday user who doesn't want to. This is just a personal opinion, but just failing is probably less scary to the everyday user t

I don't think there will be much in the form of compensation/restorative damages, but there is a likelihood that they can be held for punitive damages if there is some breach of privacy as a result of the potential breach of contract. It wi

One things that came to mind when reading your comment was some of my frustration using OS X. When an app in OS X or OS X itself stops working you don't get a blue screen or a "this application has crashed" error - it just stops working. Ma

I'm not actually trying to use patent troll in the pejorative sense, so I should have clarified that. I agree entirely with your point, but it doesn't disagree with my primary argument that patenting an idea and licensing it isn't a simple

Let's rephrase the question a bit: 1) Should a startup bother if all they have is an idea that anyone can easily clone? I'd argue no - As many here already know having an idea is only one piece of the puzzle. You have to have initiative, go

Waiting on someone with expertise in the area to come in here and explain why this is typical sensationalist FUD to make an otherwise boring article about Yet Another "Scary" Botnet exciting. Is there any point to this article other than hi

Can't be Symbian, can't be Linux/Ubuntu, as those never picked up a large chunk of market share.... Possibly Blackberry? Large jump with Apple might be Tiger? The data does seem highly dubious though....

Because if you operate your own booking app you can set your own prices and you don't have to pay Uber a cut. You'd also be able to use it to operate a private network of drivers. For example, large corporations can roll out a private web/m

I am not sure what this is supposed to be, some sort of joke or some sort of anti-immigration scare-mongering tactic. Getting inside the U.S. is the easy part. Renting/buying property, setting up bank accounts, getting a driver's license, g

Even in the case you describe, they will try to refuse or claim they don't know the way most of the time. If you still hold your ground, you better know the route because if you don't you can expect the cabbie to get "lost" for an hour and

Agreed 100%. Uber isn't adding anything disruptive to NYC, they are just adding another channel for booking town cars. In my personal experience, the town car services I've been using for over a decade that I call to book with have been fas

1) The author of this post is wrong when he assumes that the driver's refused his fare solely because JFK is a location that is "out of the way". There are indeed set shift changes that the large majority of cabs in NYC adhere to, and when

With WhatsApp you have one account per phone number that you activate on each phone through SMS authentication. So if I installed WhatsApp to my iPhone 4 under number 917-555-5555, WhatsApp will then text that number with an activation code

Bitcoin is a relatively stable asset and currency as far as I can tell. Bitcoin's value in relation to the dollar is a product of demand and supply, like any other currency. However, given that supply is "hard coded" in the algorithm, suppl
