I agree about the arduino and batteries, but this board is a bit different. It uses external memory which takes more power. It uses javascript which could take much more power. And the wifi also might not be low power. So it's not clea

Gingerbread(2.3) on 512MB works fine.Yes 2.3 isn't the latest, but it offers much more than FxOS. The price is the price at a Chinese webstore including shipping. Not sure about european custom fees, but wouldn't they apply to buy

Does that debate interests plain consumers ? Edit: and wouldn't it make sense to fork a version of android, like amazon did, to achieve openness and privacy , than to start over ?

When you can buy something that looks like a decent(512MB, 4.5",dual core) android phone[1] at less than $100, and many similar models are coming from china , why bother with this phone ? [1] http://www.pandawill.com/sim

This device has better range and better accuracy than kinect(less than 2mm error instead of 5-25mm at 2m distance).

Encryption is basically a tool against wiretappers and men in the middle. But what if you don't fully trust your users, and fear they'll try to add exploits to your software ? Another high level effort in security is meredith pat

Amazon currently plays a dual role; both a traditional retailer and a 3rd party logistics business, and they'll probably be quite good at both of those, see the kiva purchase for example. I think they could probably beat ebay in this k

Political change on it's own won't work. They will still keep the infrastructure in case they need to spy on someone(with a court order). But if they have the infrastructure , conceptually it's just a press of button again to

Maybe their strategy is to build generic stores, but let affiliates do customizations ?

Yes, the transparency does make sense. Maybe the NSA guy didn't tell him anything about the exploits of tor. But the fact that it financed tor implies heavily that there are such exploits accessible to NSA. And the fact that it is know

I wonder if it is used as a pressure release valve for anonymity software developers. That way they focus their efforts on tor, which might be more amenable to USG exploits, than other anonymity networks. One relevant data point:the author

You're right, that's a very big if. Also, most of the research in the field has been done on black and white image, so it not directly usefull. And come to think on it, if we're talking about image stego, what prevents the NS

What about anonymity ? email has a potential for better anonymity than TOR via mixmaster or other remailers. Are you considering those features ?

I read some research about provably secure steganography , which claim that if you know the statistics of the communication channel, you can build secure steno, at least to the level one way functions. So it is interesting if in reality the

You can easily make doing laundry relatively nice experience, just find a nice podcast to listen to. But watching game of thrones or programming something interesting is more fun. This kind of dynamic is not with hard to beat I think.

This type of problem is called secure two party computation. Tasty looks like a good framework to use for this kind of problems. http://code.google.com/p/tastyproject/

One counterpoint to this is daphne coller's claim that pass rate is about 70 percent for people who paid $50 for a special track that includes verification of identity and means to prevent cheating.
