"If you were to find a defect in Windows 8, then that defect probably exists backwards to other Windows versions," note McAfee's Adam Wosotowsky. "People can look at those patches and think, 'What were they patching? I bet this same problem exists in XP, but it's not patched because they're no longer patching it.' The security of an operating system drops off a cliff when support ends."

As Microsoft prepares to cut off support for Windows XP, hackers are sharpening their kni [...]

Compared to conventional noise blocking machines, our noise generators can be shaped to the frequency characteristics of the environmental noise one needs to block, and therefore achieve a better camouflage, or - in other words - a greater masking efficiency at quieter levels.

Listening to our noise generators i [...]

I found out about this at ~1AM this morning:

The Heartbleed Bug is a serious vulnerability in the popular OpenSSL cryptographic software library. This weakness allows stealing the information protected, under normal conditions, by the SSL/TLS encryption used to secure the Internet.

The Heartbleed bug allows anyone on the I [...]

To look at this flourishing mass of plant life you’d think David Latimer was a green-fingered genius.

Truth be told, however, his bottle garden – now almost in its 53rd year – hasn’t taken up much of his time.

In fact, on the last occasion he watered it Ted Heath was Prime Minister and Richard Nixon was in the White House.



For the last 40 years it has been completely sealed from the outside world. But the indoor variety of spiderworts (or Tradescantia, to give the plant species its scientif [...]

US Airways has apologised after an explicit photo was sent from its official Twitter account in response to a customer complaint.
It said in a statement that it was trying to flag the image as inappropriate but instead mistakenly included it in a message.
The tweet was deleted after approximately an hour but not before it had been retweeted hundreds of times.

You might want to block out some time for this episode of The Simpsons: On May 4, the long-running animated Fox comedy will journey into the world of Lego, as Homer finds himself transported into another yellow dimension. Will it be a snap for him to return to his old world? What happens when things like Kwik-E-Mart become the Brick-E-Mart? And how will this episode stack up against The Lego Movie, which has earned more than $250 million at the box office? “I think it’s just as good and it’s f [...]
