Her tweet was in response to an anti-hate law (Hate Crime and Public Order Act) this year, where you could spend up to 7 years in prison for example, communicating in a way “that a reasonable person would consider to be threatening or abusive.” So, if charged in Scotland, she could go to prison.
Though she’s rich, so probably not.
Company profits up but share price down? Fire some C-Suite.
Company has never profited and there’s no plan but share price up? Give C-Suite performance bonuses.
Well it isn’t actually a confirmed case. Ruiu, the original person reporting the issue wasn’t sure exactly what the surface area of attack was at the start. Ruiu Dragos, who is a security researcher believed it infected via speakers.
Eventually Errata CEO, Robert Graham, said that if he spent a year, he could build malware that did the same and that it was ‘really, really easy’
Eventually, Ruiu noticed that the initial stage of infection was from one of his USB sticks.
The speakers part comes in that he found that the packets transmitted between badBIOS infected machines stopped if he disconnected the internal speaker and microphone.
Meaning, that sure, badBIOS may communicate data with each other via speakers but that it has never been proven that it could actually infect another machine via speakers. However, that hasn’t stopped articles from conflating things.
I regularly meet Linux elitists not understanding that I want a UI for my debuggers, not an automated script.
I don’t know. It doesn’t make any sense that someone would be against a UI for something. It is just mostly a bunch of volunteers working on their own projects. I could see a volunteer saying something like “nah, I’m OK with it the way it is” because they are working on something for free, usually for themselves and sharing it for others to use and/or contribute to.
It seems odd that you’d complaining to some project maintainers and calling them elitists for not working on your suggestion and even odder still because I’d imagine many would be thrilled for someone to contribute to building a UI, even if it’s just mock-ups. Unless you’re talking about some random people in the Linux community but I don’t really see any point in doing that since they probably have nothing to do with whatever projects you’re talking about.
What would adding a GUI to a command line app even change about it as far as the command line? It isn’t as if you either get one or the other; you can have both. It just doesn’t make sense.
The specs are old enough to be one of those eMachines. Didn’t they have the “Gamer” ones too with the shit specs and a mid GPU too?
