Death metal cannot compete with real death. It will continue in the shadow of the terrorism in Paris at the performance of the Eagles of Death Metal band.

No comment other than...

Voted the heaviest riff by some heavy metal magazine that I don't remember:

Voted the most instantly recognizable riff of all time:

And then there's one of those tunes that really sparked off a lot of what we have now:

Amazing stuff from Eytan Adar (Associate Professor of Information and Computer Science at the University of Michigan):

I can think of several good reasons why some people might feel that this technology needs to be suppressed.

Your Phone Is Listening—Literally Listening—to Your TV

Quote from: The Article
(Bhatt said that the smartphone apps that listen for SilverPush audio beacons present the user with a screen asking for detailed permission before using the device’s microphone for the first time.)

This bit strikes me as tactically disingenuous, because the long winded - and I'm sure carefully timed - "detailed request" only servers to inspire people - EULA style - to dismissively agree.

...And to think a year or so ago, we were worried about hackers misusing Acoustic Mesh Networks.

Dell installs self-signed root certificate on laptops, endangers users' privacy  Computerworld

Noooooo - isn't that what Lenovo did as well?
You'd think they'd learn...

I bought a Dell laptop in July, so hopefully I dont have it ...
