The text doesn't say 92 percent, 10 years and Powerwalls, it says 90 percent, 15 years and batteries.

Indeed he did not!

”During his second infection, the man did not have any symptoms”

Philosophically, this is unfair towards Covid-19. Any other ”illness” – no one would ever have known.

... it happens too often to be just a coincidence.

There must be money involved, right?

Thank God for Slashdot commenters!

No

ÂWithout knowing the specifics of the vulnerabilitiesÂ

The Âbackdoor is Telnet. Vodafone instructed Huawei to uninstall Telnet. Huawei agreed to do that, but didn't, because they needed it for installation and test. It sounds from the story like they only killed it.

ÂIn China, a company is a Chia pet. The state tells them what to do, and they do it.

There is no hard evidence that's happened with Huawei. -- 60 minutes

Nothing has changed since then.

They are implausible because you are getting numbers wrong. I suspect you have not read the study.

Only former Uber and/or Lyft users were in the study.

These were super cool references, and you are obviously very knowledgeble.

”Weapon” is just a metaphor.

Stuxnet/Olympic Games caused physical damage, that was a first (counting only well documented cases).

They are accused of this:
-Selling millions of cars that are not certified. VW does have some certificates, but they are valid only for (non-existing) cars without the defeat devices. Devices that work like this have to be declared. There are acceptable uses for example when handling emergencies or when starting the car, but cheating on emissions testing would presumably not have been an acceptable use. So VW didn't mention them in the application and thus the certficiates they do own are not valid for the cars they sold.
-Having installed defeat devices, which is illegal.

There is also the possibility that the closest civilization to earth, or even the closest planet harboring life, is in a parallel universe.

”What is there to prevent “letmeinfacebook” from being the new most common four word password for Facebook accounts”

Chance. XKCD 936 says to choose the words at random.

Diogomonica is wrong. And so was Bruce Schneier, and for the same reason – he missed that the words are to be chosen at random.

This means for example picking a up a few books and selecting pages and words at random. I picked a poetry book and used only words starting with an "o". Not optimal, but nice.

Password managers are better, definitely. So sure, mention the password manager first. But nine out of ten of your readers will not install them. What will you tell them? Nothing?

Thanks for linking to us! I think that's a first!

Chipsip also of course publishes its own press releases: http://www.chipsip.com/news/in...

This is Chipsips own comparison between their design and Google Glass (pdf) http://www.chipsip.com/archive...

To some commenters:
- This is not a product. This is a reference design which other companies will build smart glasses from. Some of the dozen or so manufacturers of prisma smart glasses out there, besides Google, might well have used this design.
- The specs top Googles Glass, but the manufacturer can of course choose to not utilize them fully, to make for example price more reasonable. Look upon this specification as the limit of what you can to today in this form factor – maybe carrying an external battery in your breast pocket?
- Google put a lot of effort in the software ("OK glass!", et cetera). Chipsip has a much simpler idea in the link above – to use the smart glasses basically as an extra screen to a standard Android smartphone.

What about the Sony Vaio Z docking station Power Media Dock? It was advertised June 28 to be using ”an optical cable” and ‘Light Peak’.

No, I don't agree.

When I read your first comment, I re-read it twice to make sure I understood you correctly. Then I copied it to some fellow scam spotters.

In your mailing you set something of an inofficial world record in self delusion -- you are fully aware D-Wave is full of lies. But you manage to twist it into being part of a strategy that actually proves they are for real.

Wishful thinking is the con man's greatest accomplice.

You say don't know if it is a scam. I can tell you right now that you never will. The Google-D-Wave thing will go quiet and die, and you will always be wondering if perhaps they were cut off on the verge of a great discovery.
