OP is correct, the term absolutely originated in the warez scene. A much better researched article: https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fbjorn.kuiper.nu%2F2013%2F1...
It has since been appropriated for the vulnerability usage.

>>The term 0-day comes originally from the Warez scene [3]:
>>“0-day (pronounced as zero day) – This refers to any copyrighted work that has been released the same day as the original product, or sometimes even before.[6] It is considered a mark of skill among warez distro groups to crack and distribute a program on the same day of its commercial release.”

Huh? Bill Clinton was accused of rape. How is grabbing em by the pussy worse than rape? https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2F...

Hehe, reminds me of this Louis C.K. bit: https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3F...

Because reddit is basically the slashdot of the next generation of web users.

Halos are caused by the correction area being smaller that the dilated pupil size, has nothing to do with the type of LASIK.

The most common post LASIK problem is actually dry eyes, 50% of patients.

It is certainly not a perfected surgery IMHO.

I immediately thought of this exploit as well. Seems to me you would need a lot of NOP packets comparatively, the login info is just a few keystrokes. Plus login info is not time sensitive on the receiving end, delays in a voice stream might not be acceptable.

Brilliant. Someone get this man a research grant! ;)

So every article I've read so far has stated that Nintendo is mum about the technicals of the 3d system, there is no indication of what 3d system it is using.
But this is Slashdot, surely someone must know?
I would guess it uses a lenticular lens, but would love to see some more details...

Considering you can still fly without id, and they have the automated ticket kiosks at the airport now, you wouldn't even have to go to the trouble of forging the boarding pass. Show up to the airport with stolen CC, print out ticket, tell security you forgot your id (subjecting you to the more thorough search) and you're off to terrorizing!

Someone got $6,000 to loan me? I want one...

Wow, you sure do seem sure of yourself, but a quick check reveals that Diesel fuel has a higher potential energy than Gasoline: In MJ/kg Diesel is 48, Gas 47.

You are right that it is a small difference.

The difference between GeForce and Quadro cards is almost always completely driver based, it is the exact same hw, different sw.
This basically a roll your own Tesla, and considering the Teslas connect to the host system via an 8x or 16x PCI-e add in card, I'm gonna say you are wrong when it comes to the bandwidth issue as well...

What an uninformed post. AMD did not neglect their fabs. Hell they spent 2.5 billion building a new one in 2003 (Fab 36); and guess what, they still own nearly half of Global Foundries (spinoff) that is building a new fab in NY. They were consistently 6 months or so behind Intel when stepping down to a smaller process, which was faster than anyone else in the industry.
Hmm and I wonder why they would have to sell off their fabs after investing heavily in them, perhaps it is because they were not getting the returns they expected due to market manipulation?

  "AMD couldn't keep up with Intel's aggressive pricing because they simply could not produce competitive chips as inexpensively as Intel could." That statement is just hilarious. For the time period we are talking about here, AMD chips were cheaper and faster than Intel's. No questions about it.

Good point on the Atom pricing. I couldn't believe it when I heard about that, it is like Intel is going out of their way to get sued for anti competitive behavior.

I knew this was coming when I first heard about the White House scrapping their previous GroupWise based email archiving system, as they were switching to Exchange, and deciding to roll their own archiving system.
Thanks to Sarbanes-Oxley, email archiving is big business now and you can buy enterprise ready solution from the likes of EMC.
Instead they decided to have a private contractor roll a custom system, spent a couple hundred million and 2 years, and then scrapped it for not working right (scrapped by the White House CIO).
In the end they implemented an EMC solution, right before Bush left office.
They can pull the wool over non technical peoples eyes, but I have no doubt they purposely FUBAR'ed this, there was no reason not to go with an industry standard solution from the get go unless they were up to no good.
