For some reason, it won't show the + signs when you first hit submit. You have to reload the page to see them.

Deja Vu (plus) Quantum Leap (plus) Groundhog Day = Source Code*

But seriously, I don't get the title of the movie? It has what to do with "source code"? I know that's what they're calling the machine that does whatever it does that, but why?

And is he actually going back in time? Or is it just like a "Matrix" simulation he's popping into?

* = for some reason it wont let me do a "plus sign"

Dan Rathers on CNN Voting Machine Fraud

NordlichReiter says...

Of course the machines are not secure, or reliable.

There's no single point of failure in the security setting, and the posture is fucking horrendous.

The machines are not being controlled in a MAC or RBAC setup. I get the feeling that the physical security is lacking in a huge way. Corporations are being relied upon too heavily to sort this stuff out. Diebold was a joke, and still is.

These machines should be made in the United States, and the United States only. This is not some nationalistic joke. It is a United States issue, and should be solved by resources based in the United States.

I'm sure someone will say, "if you make it open source then anyone can make these machines." To which I say only certified machines approved by rigorous process will be allowed to be used in the United States votes. Some very good alternative software have come from well meaning open source communities. Multiple flavors of Linux come to mind.

I'm sure we would need to put in place some very strong punishment for fraud, while not being too tyrannical.

Here's a list of things I would start with.


  1. Multiple Independent QA Tests

  2. Multiple Independent Security Certification Tests

  3. Multiple Independent Source Code Reviews

  4. Secure Source Code


    • No Buffer Overflows

    • No Format String Flaws


  5. Full Disclosure


    • Source Code Released to the Public. From Firmware to Operating System code.

    • Manufacture Process made Transparent

Alien Swarm : New, kick ass free game from Valve

Gamble says...

I wish I could upvote this comment more than once. Source code, tools, and game? OH SNAP>> ^entr0py:

That's cool, I missed the news when Valve bought out the company that made Alien Swarm (Black Cat Games). I don't know why Valve is releasing this game for free, but that was nice of them. Apparently they're also releasing the source code and development tools.

"No-follow" in comments with links (Sift Talk Post)

dag says...

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

Weird - I had a go fixing it up, but had no luck. FTR, we add "no follow" to all hyperlinks to deter spammers from trying to steal our precious Google juice, but they should never be visible outside of the source code.

@lucky760 may shed some light here.

How to Skip the Trailers and FBI warning on any DVD.

spawnflagger says...

Unfortunately, you are both breaking the law. Specifically the DMCA (digital millenium copyright act), which states that you cannot circumvent any encryption on media. Even if it seems like "fair use", or you say "but I own the DVD!" - doesn't matter. This law is poorly worded for the consumer, and only crafted to support lawsuits by the large media studios. Even the simple DeCSS code used on DVD, which was beaten within months, counts as encryption, so "ripping" DVDs is therefore illegal. CopyLeft was sued for printing t-shirts with the DeCSS source code on them. It also brought about a case of the first "illegal prime number".

(I suppose if you are preserving the DeCSS encryption on the ripped-to-hard-drive copy it might be a legal backup falling under fair use, but I am not a lawyer)

Anyway, that's why there aren't any legal programs to archive all your movies to hard drive (free and widely available does not equal legal). Which is also why most of those dvd's and blu-rays include a separate Digital Copy that includes a lower res, pre-encoded, DRM'd, version of the movie transferable via iTunes or WMP.

I wish that movies had a separate licenses for the content than for the media. If you saw the movie in the theater, you should get a discount on the DVD (or digital iTunes/etc). If you own the DVD, then you should get a discount on the blu-ray.

My biggest gripe with pure-digital media is the lack of a 2nd hand market. You can't sell used iTunes downloads. (at least not a-la-carte. there was a case of a successful sale of an entire iTunes account transfer on ebay)

>> ^deathcow:

I find decoding the content, followed by making a new disc without them, to be very efficient.


>> ^Psychologic:

It usually isn't just for bypassing previews. I back up all of my DVDs on an external mirrored hardrive. Besides protecting against scratched dvds, I can watch any of the movies from any computer in the house over the wireless network without having to keep up with the physical DVDs.
There is plenty of free software that bypasses DRM, and cutting out previews and unwanted extras reduces the size noticably. The only way the process would take close to an hour is if the video is being compressed (calculation intensive). If it's a straight copy then it takes less than 20 minutes and only requires user input at the very beginning.

Create a 3D model of any scene using Photosynth and Meshlab

rychan says...

Photosynth doesn't do this for you because it simply doesn't extract the necessary information. Its internal representation is point clouds. The mapping from point clouds to surfaces is non-trivial (and while it sort of worked in this video, not exactly -- you can see the z-fighting from redundant, overlapped surface reconstructions).

There is research from the same team that made Photosynth (Noah Snavely, Steve Seitz, Rick Szeliski, many others from U Wash.) dealing with explicit surface reconstruction from unorganized photo collections:
http://grail.cs.washington.edu/projects/mvscpc/

But they don't have source code available as far as I can see. You could always try to ask

In reply to this comment by dag:
Well, here's what I know:

I've contacted our ad networks to see if they had any info about it - neither claim any knowledge and say it's not part of their inventory.

I've used my VPN to become US-based and tried about 40 reloads with Chrome- but can't make it happen.

StatCntr.com seems to be triggering on BoingBoing and TweetMeme as well:
http://search.twitter.com/search?q=statcntr.com

Still looking into it- if anybody gets it and manages to snag the source code that is around it- we'd love to have a look.

Thanks
