NSA:TOR

http://cryptome.org/2013/10/nsa-tor.pdf

NSA: We have seen several targets using Tor. Our goal was to analyze Tor source code and determine any vulnerabilities in the system. We set up an internal Tor network to analyze Tor trac, in the hopes of discovering ways to passively identify it. We also worked to create a custom Tor client which allows the user ner control.

I will shoot this one , if i see the drones. You can get a camera, a gps and a hover for free!
2. All the best games like GTA, metal gear solid is out on the first of the days when the console is out. Marketing. I remember those days my friends played GTA 4. I first played it on PC and later on xbox 2. I had a lot of fun and yes i get them almost FREE or very cheap.

4. Piracy is wrong. I agree. Im sad for the developers that depends from the big companies like MS and PS. But what is the point to buy a 4 games for the price of the console? And after you must spend money for unnecessary addons and maps that costs no so cheap. This is not my fault that i don't buy a games. (almost addons and maps that i wanted are free now or cheaper) And those poor people who buy the game and cant refund it, because they cant test it. I dont mention disk scratches, the whole box with a lot of CDS that no one needs and i cant even sell. Year i know about cloud games.

9. The high tech industry never stops and even if you buy a console now, tomorrow someone like Steam will release a new one, so i dont see a difference, Yeah i prefer be the last guy that the mass of sheeps. Like those you see killing people and fighting to buy a new console.

6. New features to the old game ? I doubt. 11. A few, even Fable was released on PC.

12. A consuming world. Its so sad.

ps: i just wanted to share my style of life about console games. My last console was playstation (i sell it in 2001 ) and now im on xbox 2 for 3 years and i will do the same with the new ones.

Well maybe 3 , but you can Play the games on pc if you have one and in 5 years you will have 3 different versions of xbox out that is much much better than the first one.

Why not to buy a next gen console now and wait to buy it in 5 years

1. It could be a next birthday present 2. All games already out 3. All friends already inside 4. Console is hacked so you can play all the games free from HD. 5. More cheap that at the start , more cheap offers , new offers and games 6. All bugs are fixed 7. All patches are released 8. You can play with friend who already bought it (test games and console) 9. New devices is out. 10. You will...

A fractal-based fibre for ultra-high throughput optical probes

http://www.opticsinfobase.org/view_article.cfm?gotourl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Eopticsinfobase%2Eorg%2FDirectPDFAccess%2F57D5A79C-AF0A-D9C8-561DB34DF182E866_130603%2Foe-15-5-2468%2Epdf%3Fda%3D1%26id%3D130603%26seq%3D0%26mobile%3Dno&org=

A core component of all scanning near-field optical microscopy (SNOM) systems is the optical probe, which has evolved greatly but still represents the limiting component for the system. Here, we introduce a new type of optical probe, based on a Fractal Fibre which is a special class of photonic crystal fibre (PCF), to directly address the issue of increasing the optical throughput in SNOM probes....

Winamp shutting down after over 15 years

http://www.theverge.com/2013/11/20/5126666/winamp-media-player-shutting-down-after-over-15-years

The famous media player Winamp will shut down next month, over 15 years after its initial release. Though Winamp eventually lost popularity, in the late '90s and early 2000s it was one of the go-to media players for listening to local music or radio streams. In 2002, Winamp's maker, Nullsoft, was acquired by AOL for over $80 million in stock, where it's remained in development until now. A Mac...
