The secret watermark which is being intentionally embedded inside
WoW generated screenshots below top quality, DOES NOT CONTAIN the account
password, the IP address of the user or any personal information like
name/surname etc.
It does contain the account ID, a timestamp and the IP
address of the current realm. It can be used by hackers to link alt. characters
to accounts and target specific spam or scam attacks, and it can be used by
Blizzard to track down private WoW servers.

Highly
recommended.

Google appears to have been blindsided by the fact that Apple won
its lawsuit against Samsung.
In an interview with Bloomberg TV, David Lawee,
VP of corporate development, says, "We didn't believe rounded corners were
patentable."
He's taking a small swipe at Apple, but he's also talking about
Google's failings.

Thank you PJ for your tireless elucidations of the
subtleties of law, and for your continued fight against the
paid trolls, fuddites, flamers, and shills.
Thank you Firefighters, of the type of courageousness,
selflessness, and strength of will that, of your own
volition, walked _up_ into the World Trade Centers on
9/11/2001. And for those who paid the ultimate price on
that day, thank you to their survived-bys, for _your_
ultimate price paid.
Thank you to all of the rescue workers and news-bringers for
bringing help to, and news from, that horrific event.
Thank you to the soldiers, families of, survivors of, ad
infinitum, for the continued sacrifices to keep the enemies
of free will at bay.
Words cannot encompass what I want to say, but this is a
start.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

It seems that the Italian overlords are holding their little black boxes
tight. A petition has been started to free the hostages.
MOPAR
drivers are a proud bunch. Since the 50's we have prided ourselves on driving
the best performing cars available from Detroit.
That all came to a
screeching halt with the release of the 2011 model year MOPARs. The use of
military grade 128 bit rolling code encryption on the ECUs has essentially
neutered the MOPAR world. Now we are stuck with the horsepower the Chrysler
engineers deemed sufficient.
We are now embarrassed on a daily basis by Ford
and GM drivers who have access to handheld tuners. It is absolutely pathetic
that we have the best looking muscle cars on the road, but we aren't allowed to
make the performance match the style. When a guy with a base Mustang GT can
embarrass a Challenger SRT/8 simply by throwing a few hundred worth of
performance parts on it and tuning using a handheld tuner, there is a problem.
We MOPAR fans are a loyal bunch, but if we keep getting told we can't tune our
cars, we may not remain loyal for long.
So please, release the codes to the
aftermarket tuning companies so we can continue the tradition of MOPAR dominance
on the street.

I got him to address some criticisms. See the comments. Pretty sure this is the
real guy this is the real guy, because the author of the article is completely
annoyed with me for continually questioning Florian's appropriateness as a
source for anything ;-).

We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things,
not because they are easy, but because they are hard, because that goal will
serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that
challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to
postpone, and one which we intend to win, and the others, too. President John F. Kennedy
