Judge: Sony didn't promise "perfect security," isn't liable for PSN hack

A California district judge dismissed most of a class-action complaint against Sony's handling of the massive PlayStation Network (PSN) data breach last year. However, plaintiffs will be able to amend and resubmit parts of the complaint in the near future.

Sony PlayStation 3: The Final Hack?
Authored by: SpaceLifeForm on Tuesday, October 23 2012 @ 08:03 PM EDT

Sony is waking up to a new PlayStation 3 security nightmare after a day in which a brand new, PSN-enabled custom firmware was released for hacked consoles, swiftly followed up by publication of the console's LV0 decryption keys - which some say blows the system wide open.

Ironic timing.

Monsonto offer royalty-free patented Agrobacterium process
Authored by: Anonymous on Tuesday, October 23 2012 @ 08:33 PM EDT
"Monsanto will provide royalty-free research licenses to academic, public and non-profit institutions (including large-scale farmers) for its 1983 patent on Agrobacterium transformation process, recently released by the US". link

Abstr act: "This invention relates to genetically transformed, non-tumorous plant cells. A modified Ti plasmid is created which contains a left T-DNA border, one or more desired genes, and a right T-DNA border. This region does not contain tumorigenic or phytohormone-altering genes. The Ti plasmid is inserted into plant cells, where the T-DNA region is transferred into the plant genome. The transformed plant cells may be regenerated into morphologically normal plants which will pass the desired gene(s) to their descendants". link

I suspect most of this agrobacterium-tumefaciens-mediated-dicotyledonous invention could be found in common garden soil ...

Apple announces "exciting new products"
Authored by: Gringo_ on Tuesday, October 23 2012 @ 11:46 PM EDT

No, I'm certainly not an Apple fan - far from it. It is late at night and I am just getting the browse the news now, and I see articles about their new mini-iPad, and their new MacBook Pro. Maybe that new iPad mini is a winner. Don't know anything about MacBooks.

I said I am not an Apple fan. In fact, I hate Apple - mostly because what they are doing with their patents - trying to destroy Android, which I love. Then why in the world do I announce "exciting new products" from Apple? Because they are exciting - maybe not the products, though I haven't read about them yet, but rather, the announcement itself is exciting. Why? Because it comes just before Microsoft launches their new products - their newest phone, and the other part of the Surface duo. If there is any one I hate more than Apple, it is Microsoft. I am smiling when I think of all the new products coming out from Samsung, other Android OEMs, and now Apple, on the eve of the most important launches in Microsoft's history - the launches the will make, or hopefully break them.

Aren't I a nice guy?
