    Vulnerable is vulnerable for anything.

    If you get stabbed will you say "hey I was in a less vulnerable area". You still got stabbed and are bleeding.

    I would say Android users are way more aware and cautious about the dangers than apple users who still live in an imaginary bubble of it won't happen to us.

    I use an Apple computer and got virus checks, etc installed as they are on my sons Windows machine. Don't take a risk as ANYTHING connected online is vulnerable.

    You can see the same zero's at many other museums.

    Just a plane like civil war weapon is just another gun. On same token boycott anything done by Studio Gibhli as the Miyazaki family produced wing-tips for Zero planes during WWII.

    Should I boycott any GE, etc too as they bombarded my home-country?

    Should I hate Italians, Turks, etc as they invaded my country centuries ago and thus refuse to buy their products?

    Where does it end? It ends with us and accepting that the past is the past and it is time to move on.

    If I want to hate someone I sure as hell can find a reason for it and what does it make me? Just another hater and war-monger.

    Steve.

    So you would pull overseas staff from their needed jobs. France recently had 2 incidents, etc.

    Those overseas experts are just as good and well trained as the Japanese ones. There is no quick answer and needed equipment and supplies are in short demand as each country runs their reactors as lean as possible.

    Maybe you missed the news that the USA, etc recently extended their own nuclear reactors by 10-20yrs beyond their planned life-expectancies.

    USA, etc also has many quake faults, 2 run right under Manhattan and way more south in California, etc.

    Overseas experts won't make any change at Fukushima as NONE of them has experience dealing with such a situation. All their experience/expertise is studies/models and paper-work.

    That is the reality.

    Till the hackers can hide it well enough and also lets not forget any online/inter-device connectivity is also a major weak spot.

    And malware apps have shown up in iTunes before.

    Agree with Foxie.

    Language is way more than the criteria posted above or passing a certain test. I have seen guys that got the PHD in Japanese overseas struggle for up to a year putting it into practice.

    Lots more to a language than just grammar and vocabulary.

    Myself fluent in Japanese not by a long shot but at times people without seeing my face mistake me for a local.

    Smartphones, pad, etc are still computers but minimised.

    Most often they even run the same OS(stripped down) and it is the OS where the vulnerability comes in.

    As was said if it has a CPU chip and a OS you are vulnerable. Even my hardcore Apple fans agree just a matter of time and marketshare before any electronic device gets hit with viruses, etc.

    Itunes can vet as many apps as they want, how many jail-broken phones are out there?

    Just an if.

    What if he was on LSD which enhances the mood of the person when it hits? Mellow become more mellow, aggressive become more aggressive.

    Simple drug-test will confirm it.

    samwatters.

    There is a sort of agreement between gangsters and crims worldwide.

    One of my Canadian RCMP friends posted online that he let a guy he arrested punch him hard in order to preserve the guys street-cred. He has many acknowledged articles online and trains officers worldwide.

    But 100% agree with you the 1st time you know the guy has a knife is when it sticks in you and that is the truth. Coming from a Vet and a trained MA/Street-Fighter.

    People just don't know how things really go down and how the laws views things.

    Said that public like dogs, etc are your early warning systems so not a wasted drive, IMHO.

    Go ahead. I would give you 10 seconds(max) before you lie bleeding on the pavement from one or more switchblade stabbing from the local Chimpira.

    Glad she was found safe and healthy. Most likely had a sugar overdose hope she recovers.

    And as per JT tradition got to ask: Where was the father/family all this time? What did the government do and why no check-ups?

    I read the worldwide news daily, this and stabbings, mothers killing their children seem to be the modern day norm globally. Heck the news from back home scare me daily.

    I feel for the people that died.

    Said that saw a documentary that investigated the incident and the ship was build to the latest standards but the metal/steel manufacturing at that time couldn't withstand the impact as the metal became "brittle" during processing.

    Re-enactement is over the top, IMO. Remember is good and also good that our current manufacturing skills have moved on.

    Ditto for the Hindenburg disaster, what actually burned was the doping on the outside rather than the hydrogen, was known years before Mythbusters covered it.

    Lots of cuts in Japan too.

    Got calls from friends of my old company which was bought by Sony and they are being cut. Most of the J-Companies bought up start-ups a few years back and are now trimming dead-wood.

    They do a LOT more than just electronics but also outsourcing, banking automation, etc.

    I don't mind the speciality burgers sold at some chains. Can't stand the cheese they put into cheeseburgers, etc though, just vile.

    Said that looking forward to my yearly Naan-Tacos at Mos-Burger.

    As for localising foods, McD had to change the Oil for their Fries in some Countries.

    One thing I learned in MA, Sports, Business & Life it is a tough road to the top and once you are there are many wanting that spot.

    And sooner or later someone younger, fitter, quicker, stronger, etc will come and take it from you. The top-spot is only temporary may it be sports, work, country, empire or you name it.

    The fall comes sooner or later and how hard it is depends on how well you are prepared for it and can accept it.

    Remind me how did Mictrosoft, Apple, Facebook, etc start?

    If I recall most started in a garage by a few guys with a vision and funds.

    Retire windows and the crackers will focus on the next platform that replaces it.

    Reality is there is NO secure system it was just a matter of time and market-share before Apple got hit. The crackers and viruses won't go away when windows does. Windows goes and the focus changes to Apple, Linux, etc all of which are just as vulnerable and exploitable.

    Little secret the biggest vulnerability is the software(Java, etc) and applications that connect to the Net, etc. Why because to share data and make all those nice apps work together you need to share info and whammy.

    Connect an app/device to the online and it becomes vulnerable/exploitable as those connection protocols are public and well known.

    Who really cares about how many calls he made over what period of times.

    Real fact is that a person died most likely unneeded, that should be the focus of the investigation and discussion.

    Why is he hiding after the fact, etc? Media will twist and milk it for all they can that is what they do.
