The attack vector is a bit vague, and I'm not sure how to bring this news to some of my clients.

Is the exploit only for when running services on/to the internet (IIS, Exchange webmail, etc - ) , or is visiting an https (TLS) website on and end-user enough to make the exploit happen (even in Firefox/Chrome and behind a tradional proxy server).

Sadly Microsoft does not explain the exact parameters that make this exploit tick - this makes risk assessment hard.

Reminds me of BlackIce back in the day... awesome tool this Glasswire. This is what I wanted for everyday network paranoia.

If this works, and if it's scale able, it would be something like the impulse drive. A normal spacedrive for speeds far below C and without space-warp.

But in space a few micronewtons per Kg is pretty usable.

I'm also looking for this.

This does seem valid, in a way. But is the same not true about Bitcoin then? I'm confused.

The solution to this kind of problems is: Make Read-only "disaster recovery" backups - zip it and burn it to a DVD set or Bluray, and put it off-site. Make incrementals or differentials of those discs every few months and a full data set each 3 months.

Takes a few hours, I like to burn all my data to Bluray (50GB per disk) while watching a movie.

Store the bluray data sets at a friend's house and never worry again.

All the miners would leave that pool if they did that. I would.

Well, you are flying a semi-toy without proper safety near people, buildings, above roads, cars, etc on a tourist site. An arrest might be slightly over the top, but this should not be allowed.

I'm a model RC pilot for 20 years and these kind of "stunts" are hurting the hobby. At least ask for permission next time.

A phantom only has 4 motors, and the quality is "meh" - there is hardly any 2nd control (fa I have tripple recievers in my jets, if one RC system fails I still regain control over another radio).

It has a "failsafe" - i=even if it works it's still not really good in an urban area. GPS signals might be weak (flyaway danger) and it's only flies to 25 meters when returning to home. It could fly into a tower or even not reach proper 25 meter when the 3D GPS lock is weak or disengaged.

My 2 cents. Sorry. Please people, don't fly above crowded areas. I've seen a Phantom hit a car it's almost 1KG of deadweight when it comes down. It's only a matter of time until someone gets hurt.

That would require trust - in the form of the SMS provider. No way to verify that SMS is valid, it could have been forged.

The proof-of-work blockchain transmission means it's the real and proper blockchain and is valid.

The blockchain can be pruned.

No, because proof-of-work prevents you from "faking" a blockchain. Let's say we are at block 100 and you would want to fake "the blockchain". You would have to fake a block every 10 minutes, but that requires mining, because you can't just make a block - it has to fit the previous one with the right difficulty.

You could stop sending new blocks, but that would alarm the endpoint because it will be stuck at block 100 (in our example).

The Proof-of-work scheme is pretty innovative.
