"The SpaceX explosion on June 28th was caused by a failed strut in the rocket's upper stage liquid oxygen tank, SpaceX chief executive officer Elon Musk said today. The strut was one of several hundred used to hold together the helium pressure vessels in the tank......"

Goes from saying Oxygen tank to helium tank... wait what? is the helium tank inside the oxygen tank?

from the article "Six years after Microsoft launched Bing and lost billions of dollars in a long-shot attempt to take on Google, Microsoft appears to be nearing a significant milestone: the Bing search engine is no longer bleeding cash. " No where does the article state they have even started to gain back the costs lol

This is the dumbest thing any news agency could ever do. What the camera was put there for was to gather evidence of people tampering or trying to steal mail.

Now if who ever was doing this saw the news they will stop and go un punished.

This happened at my local post office. Someone would drive up to the mail boxes with a vacuum cleaner and suck the mail out.

Eventually they caught the guy red handed with a cameras just like this.

Shame on the journalists for blowing this sting operation.

There is a much simpler reliable way to do this...

Run a bungeecord proxy server http://www.spigotmc.org/threads/1-7-2-1-8-bungeecord.392/

Then you can link the servers together with signs and customizable nether portals.

I have been running servers like this for a while now.

And Craftbukkit isn't dead, http://www.spigotmc.org/threads/bukkit-craftbukkit-spigot-1-...

You can get the latest code from the devs at spigot without the DMCAed code, everything was rewritten, patched for 1.8 and is now has a legal way to distribute the files. (You compile them yourself)

Hard disk hacking 12 years ago

This could be solved with a simple fuze or lockout bit that is set. "if you enable this mode you void your warranty, your drive will be marked as such"

What people don't understand is that when BFL mined with the hardware they sold, they effectively made the difficulty of the block chain rise stupidly fast, thus lowering the value of the system. Any advantage customers (like me) would have had was thrown out the door.

It is essentially the equivalent of a car dealer selling you a car claiming it is new when in fact they drove it 150,000 miles.

I was told by a BFL employee that my order would have been shipped before the end of july 2013... I didn't get my units till 11/4/2013

During that time I watched what could have been my returns fly out the door.

To read the one skype chat log makes me sick

I feel like my intelligence level has dropped as a result of watching part of this video. Creator has word skills... but no real programming knowledge it looks like

I identified what the other green board is... It is a controller board for a lcd....HDMI VGA power connectors on left side... Why destroy something that doesn't hold any data... "The intelligence men stood over Johnson and Blishen as they went to work on the hard drives and memory chips with angle grinders and drills, pointing out the critical points on circuit boards to attack. " These GCHQ officials must have had no clue how a computer works... were really really freaking stupid... or there is something hidden in all lcds and video cards we don't know and the GCHQ does know...
