China decrees in-flight cellphone calls are safe

Shane8
WTF?

Difference ?

"We did an investigation, and as far as most travellers are concerned, connecting to the internet on a flight definitely isn’t travellers’ first choice; what’s more important to them is passing the time on their flight via exciting activities."

So you would rather be restricted in what to view/do on your laptop compared with doing anything ?

imo i would rather play online games or chat with VOIP clients than play a movie on my laptop that i've seen thousands of times.

World of Warcraft subscriptions slip

Shane8
Stop

Interesting

Blizz already knew this which is why at blizzcon they "gave" WoW subscribers Diablo 3 for "free", in-game WoW mount for "free" and also a beta key for new WoW xpac for "free".

"free" = free if you commit for a WoW subscription for 1 year.

Having played the new xpac already, its a dk from lvl 1 all over again!

Option to update?

I never updated my PS3 for 18 months and when i finally got Fifa 11 i had no choice but to update to latest version or lose £30....

1 main reason i brought a PS3 was for the OtherOS, a nice IBM processor like that runs circles around the crappy intel i was using.

Who cares?

who cares if someone that you dont know gets married?!

Only thing im concerned about is:

How much of our money is going to be used to fund their wedding? (more tax ?)

Do we get a public holiday for it? (more free time)

lastly, who really gives a f**k ?

Reminds me of the incident at school.

Boy 1: boy 2 hit me.

Teacher: No proof, cant do anything

Boy 1: Fine

Boy 1 and friends beat up boy 2

Teacher: Boy 1 did you do this?

Boy 1: Well you wouldn't do anything...

Teacher: Detention!

I dont believe that DDoS is legal even in india so im thinking this could make a nice lawsuit and interesting PR...

Cyber Security Challenge winner announced

Jobs Halo

@djack

The last part can be done in a few ways, working it out the proper way gives you the correct answer, however you can solve it like a substutition cipher but then you will be missing out (assuming you guessed at the space char) special characters such as / - ' ! , . etc. So by 1000 entries being incorrect they have probably not caught onto the proper way to solve it, thus leaving their "solution" incorrect.

3 stages....

I found it fun, only 3 stages though...thought the challenges would be a little more difficult than they actually was, only the last stage that was the most challenging. Nice idea though, surprised only 152 managed to solve it (inc me :D).
