That hacker is claiming to be attacking Facebook and bringing it down using a CSRF attack. Sounds like crap to me, it was probably just a problem with DNS or something.

Very sad to hear. His contributions to the Python community will never be forgotten.

Looks fine here, what's the issue?

What about Bluetooth tethering? Do they check for that too?

Don't use this as a reason to diss PHP. Almost any target, no matter what language, is vulnerable.

I agree. "Displaying data in multiple computer windows" is an absolutely ridiculous patent.

I know you guys can win this, best of luck! :)

Agreed, blaming the users for the company's own problem is disgusting.

I remember that comic by the way, I have it saved from a calendar somewhere. :P

The price is pretty ridiculous too. I would have bought it simply for the novelty if it wasn't $10.

I'm getting a "Request limit exceeded" error in my EC2 panel.

I hope the iOS jailbreak scene can do something with them.

Doesn't this violate Apple's policy? If not, has this happened in the past?

I'm trying to understand this bill better before taking a true stance on it. Is there a possibility that the powers that it grants can be abused?

I agree. This was a damn good way of handling the situation: taking care of it head-on instead of watching from the sidelines and hoping things get better. I didn't think they would do much (except for maybe a blog post about how you shouldn't give your password to anyone or something similar), but this is totally beyond what I expected.

So Facebook is going to fight fire with fire? This is not the way to handle it.

I don't have a choice. It'd be too expensive to switch.

Yep, still on 3G.

I ran a speed test on my (throttled) AT&T 3G connection on my iPhone 4. 5 bars, perfect signal here. 0.03 Mbps down and 0.02 up. It's absolute bullshit.

Their launch day was also a disaster. Their servers were completely unstable, their systems didn't work properly, and there were glitches everywhere.

I'd imagine it'll include the core SDKs and an option for OEMs to include built-in Kinect support (like Asus is doing).

You can't even use an upgraded version of the browser? IE7 kinda defeats the point of a "secured" network.

Your computer probably has malware. Run ComboFix and that should fix the issue.

Freon is heavily regulated these days. Very hard to get unless you know someone who works with it regularly (like a car mechanic).

You are confusing DRM for the locking down of a product or platform. Apple locks down iOS for the benefit of the user (most of the time), but adds DRM to apps to prevent unauthorized code from being executed on the device and to prevent apps from being pirated (which Installous has proved futile).

>of attempting to copy Youtube 1 for 1

... since when is this a crime? There are tons of "clones" of YouTube out there.

Or MediaFire, or RapidShare, or even Box.net.

All my drives are already TrueCrypted. I have nothing to hide, but I do not want to be treated like a criminal for doing something as simple as crossing the US border.

Stripe is the best right now. Great user interface, great API, and awesome staff. Give it a try.

If Sony were using my code in their product, I'd be pretty excited and proud to have created something that a huge company would use.

Is this just an unofficial fan-created thing or is MegaUpload actually returning? I didn't see any nasty scripts on the page so it's probably not malicious.

No one is making you use iOS.
