Oct 15 Yahoo's next step in password security is to eliminate them altogether.
Starting on Thursday, the company announced, users of the Yahoo Mail app on both iOS and Android will have access to a new service called Yahoo Account Key, which uses smartphones to verify identities in lieu of traditional passwords. But we'll still need to enter a password on our phone to access the service...

Very cool, seeing as though I haven't used yahoo since the 1990's, I probably don't need a password anyway.

The US wireless regulator (FCC) only seems to have figured that out recently, and is not happy with your ability to boost the signal power excessively on such devices. The FCC proposed changes to regulations, with one document suggesting it may ban or restrict third-party software altogether.

"The palm-sized sequencer gives researchers the power to analyse DNA almost anywhere, and could help track disease outbreaks, run checks on food, and combat the trafficking of endangered animals.
The gadget marks a major step towards what Mark Akeson, a co-inventor at the University of California Santa Cruz, called "the democratisation of sequencing", where anyone can gather and process DNA samples for themselves.
... The 10cm-long, 90g device, named MinION by its British developers, Oxford Nanopore, has already been used by some scientists. In April, a team in Guinea read the genomes of 14 Ebola samples within 48 hours of them being taken from patients. Early next year, astronauts are due to use gadget to read DNA for the first time on the International Space Station." [^]
"Are you sure you can hack it ?"
"Sure."
"She'll never know ?"
"Not unless she gets another Minion."
"Okay, I've got the cash."
"Small bills, like I asked ?"
"Yeah."

We've all become used to the idea of ads online -- it's something that has become part and parcel of using the internet -- but in Windows? If you've updated to build 10565 of Windows 10, you're in for something of a surprise: the Start menu is now being used to display ads. Oh, great... ಠ_ಠ

I'm on that release and don't see any adverts. Do you think the author has the "Windows Store" live tile showing..?

Upon closer inspection of the article I found this line. Looks like you're safe (for now).

Reason #1 to not install W10. What bullshit. So, besides all the other things it does consuming bandwidth, it now also downloads ads.

That's it: I'll download it only after is has been thoroughly cracked, AND I'll set up an external firewall.

OK, everyone using an insider build you know what you need to do. DON'T turn off the suggested app feature like the article is suggesting. 99.9% of sheeple won't bother if it's released; and MS will eventually use the 99.9% acceptance rate to justify removing the disable feature to shrink the code base. Instead what you need to do is to bomb every app that is advertised using it with 1 star reviews because the developer is a scumbag who is perfectly happy to violate your computer by taking a dump all over your start menu. IF every app that shows up in the program is nuked into 1.1 star oblivion the program will be ended because developers will refuse to participate.

It has been called the most bizarre star in our galaxy and some think it just might be home to high-tech aliens.
The unlikely suggestion that aliens live in this star system is being taken so seriously that a team of astrophysicists wants to train a radio telescope in its direction to determine if any signals could indicate advanced extraterrestrial life. Step right up and place your bets!

You're right! Thanks for catching that. We've posted a new news item to replace it.

Why? What is it that you think makes our nondescript little planet so special that it's the only place in the entire vastness of the universe where so-called "intelligent" life could evolve?
The real "WTF" would be if we examined every part of the universe and didn't find any evidence of alien life.

I don't think we are alone in the universe. I agree with you.
But I think if we find another civilization, that will end in the extintion of one of us.

For years, privacy advocates have pushed developers of websites, virtual private network apps, and other cryptographic software to adopt the Diffie-Hellman cryptographic key exchange as a defense against surveillance from the US National Security Agency and other state-sponsored spies. Now, researchers are renewing their warning that a serious flaw in the way the key exchange is implemented is allowing the NSA to break and eavesdrop on trillions of encrypted connections. Researchers show how mass decryption is well within the NSA's $11 billion budget.

A paper by a team of astronomers is getting some notice because of aliens. Astronomers are looking into the idea that what they’ve found might be due to aliens.
