JAMES BOND VS COMPUTER

O fetita de 10 ani a gasit un secret in jocurile Apple sau Android

In timp ce se plictisea intr-un joc tip ferma pe telefon, CyFi a gasit o metoda prin care sa umble la ceas, dand timpul inainte si colectand obiecte care necesita ore sau chiar zile sa fie create.

Schimbarea timpului in joc poate avea numeroase efecte. De exeplu in Fable 2 daca reuseai sa dai timpul inainte, reuseai sa strangi foarte muilti bani din chiriile care se adunau in timp sau in Animal Crossing (pe Nintendo DS) puteai sa sari perioadele in care trebuia sa astepti pana cresteau copacii sau recoltele.

Acest hack descoperit de CyFi nu este foarte periculos pentru jocurile iOS sau Android insa unele din ele au o componenta sociala si probabil ca multi vor dori sa profite si sa avanseze mai repede in joc, dezechilibrandu-i sistemul economic al acestuia.

Fetita si-a prezentat descoperirea la o intalnire "underground" de hackeri, tinuta anual in Las Vegas.

Facebook Launches New In-Line Translation Tool

Facebook has quietly introduced a new tool that makes instant inline language translations appear with a single click.

This is different from Google’s translation tool — this opt-in service is powered by Microsoft Bing and works on individual posts on Facebook Pages, including comments. For example, if you’re an English speaker reading a Facebook public Page and encounter a comment in Spanish, you’ll see a Translate button next to it, letting you click to see it translated into a pop-out window in English.

For even better accuracy, the Translate feature lets bilingual users enter a human (and often more accurate) translation in that pop-out window. If enough other users vote positively on the accuracy of a human translation, it will replace the one from Bing each time the Translate button is clicked. The human translations can be managed by page administrators using a “manage translations” link underneath posts on pages they manage.

Facebook Journalist Program Manager (and former Mashable community manager) Vadim Lavrusik says the new feature works now on Facebook Pages, but not on Facebook Profiles yet. According to Ampercent, if you’re a page administrator and want to enable this feature for your multi-lingual users, go to “Your Settings” and click “Allow translations from Admin, community and machine translators.”

To see this new translation feature in action, please go to this post on our Facebook page, and see the Spanish comment there — you’ll have a chance to translate it. For some reason, it’s not offering to translate a French comment, however.
