Comment Re:Sold his stock (Score 5, Informative) 98

I gave all my Apple wealth away because wealth and power are not what I live for. I have a lot of fun and happiness. I funded a lot of important museums and arts groups in San Jose, the city of my birth, and they named a street after me for being good. I now speak publicly and have risen to the top. I have no idea how much I have but after speaking for 20 years it might be $10M plus a couple of homes. I never look for any type of tax dodge. I earn money from my labor and pay something like 55% combined tax on it. I am the happiest person ever. Life to me was never about accomplishment, but about Happiness, which is Smiles minus Frowns. I developed these philosophies when I was 18-20 years old and I never sold out.

Comment another way around internet blockage (Score 1) 123

Known VPN services have identifiable server addresses that can be blocked. Instead, you can set up a cheap raspberry pi (or other) at your home and use an encrypted SSH connection to that [raspberry pi] from far away. Then turn on your SOCKS proxy (part of WiFi Details on Macintosh) and check to see that your IP address shows to the world you access as that of your raspberry pi. I do this all the time, including right now. It also helps to watch sports events.

You might have missed that Musk made the same claim about 2016, with the 1-camera sensor system. The 2017 claim was with the newer 8-camera system, and the claim was made before Tesla even had software for the new sensors, and the Tesla then lacked adaptive cruise control, adaptive high beam, self parking, summon, and other things that the prior model did have. I'm embarrassed that I actually believed these claims.

According to this article:

Nikki Leynor, Senior Vice President of Remarkable Media, the imagineering company who constructed the unique ship, told IGN the machine was made out of 'a truss skeleton and a custom built network of LEDs for this event,' and would be disassembled following the flight.

The colorful LED lights were attached to spaceship, which was said to be roughly 50 feet in length and assisted by a Black Hawk helicopter.

I wonder if this drone strike occurred during a practice run?

Comment Really, Edge? XSS-vulnerable by design? (Score 4, Interesting) 78

An attacker only needs to open a new page via the “_blank” method and use the document.write function to write malicious code inside this page before loading the actual content. The malicious content — the code to execute a banal XSS attack — remains, and helps the attacker bypass CSP protections.

Just choked on my coffee after reading that. What possible use case could there be for allowing a blank page to even run javascript for document.write in the first place?
