Botnets To Attack Smartphones In 2009

“As internet telephony and mobile computing handle more and more data, they will become more frequent targets of cyber crime,” the researchers said. The concern is that hackers will begin stealthily taking over phones the way they’ve taken over network computers, turning them into virtual ‘bots’ to do their bidding. Because of mobile phones’ increasing computing power – not to mention their always-on nature – the researchers fear they’ll soon become an obvious target....

Boulder Atlanta Shootings Put Joe Biden S Gun Control Plan Back On Agenda

A shooting in Boulder, Colorado, on Monday left ten people dead, including a police officer. Shootings at three spas in Atlanta, Georgia, last week left eight people dead, among them six women of Asian descent. Each has seen questions raised over gun control laws, giving Biden an opportunity to talk again about his campaign’s plan to “end gun violence.” His aims include increased background checks; requiring these for all gun sales; and a ban on assault weapons....

Liverpool beaten in historical comeback Sadio Mane and Divock Origi gave the visitors a 2-0 lead inside 22 minutes and, after a Callum Wilson penalty shortly after half-time offered Bournemouth hope, Emre Can’s stunner quickly restored Liverpool’s two-goal advantage.

Borderlands The Pre Sequel Implies The Existence Of A Borderlands The Post Sequel

Bad news for Borderlands fans arrived not long after as Randy Pitchford, Gearbox Software CEO, took to Twitter to deny rumors of a Borderlands spin-off co-developed by Gearbox Software. This, however, has not killed the hype surrounding the rumors, as the possibility of a Borderlands spin-off was not out-and-out denied by Randy Pitchford, just it being co-developed. Randy Pitchford also revealed on Twitter that Gearbox Software is working on “the big one” and is currently looking to hire staff for this project....

Borderlands 3 Could Add Weird Feature

Reddit user DelusionPhantom made a post requesting the ability for Vault Hunter Zane to slap his clone on the butt. The argument he makes is that FL4K is able to pet their pets, so Zane should be able to slap his clone’s butt. It’s quite likely that DelusionPhantom is just joking, but their request prompted a response from a Gearbox Software developer regardless.

Borderlands 3 Teased At Gdc 2017

Pitchford repeatedly stated that what he was showing was a “technology demonstration” and not a video game, but that didn’t stop observers from noticing that the demo’s graphics and artwork featured Borderlands unique style and looked very much like what one would expect from a next-gen Borderlands title. Pitchford said Gearbox hopes to use Unreal Engine 4 to make Borderlands’ distinctive look appear more natural but also more complex. Apparently, the presentation got a little heavy with industry jargon, with Pitchford talking about “variable line weights” and additional geek-speak, but the main takeaway here is that the tech demo looked really promising....

Borderlands 4 Needs To Avoid Copying Tiny Tina S Wonderlands T Rating

However, while a T for Tina approach worked well for the colorful world of The Wonderlands, it would be detrimental to the mainline Borderlands games. As such, while Borderlands 4 should consider pulling from Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands when it comes to its classes, melee weapons, and the Chaos Chamber, the ESRB rating should remain M for mature.

Borderlands Fan Makes Custom Lego Loader Bot

Usually, Borderlands fans will focus on recreating items tied to the series’ iconic Vault Hunters. This makes sense, as players take control of these characters and spend plenty of time in their shoes. However, while artwork of Zer0 and Zane may be very common, this makes it even more special when fans do something different with their projects. A LEGO Loader Bot certainly qualifies as unique, and it helps when its creator does a brilliant job of putting the item together....
