Why an ad-blocker needs to be part of your anti-virus suite |

And also why your anti-virus suite needs to be heuristic-based instead of signature-based.
The Register: Let adware be treated as malware, Canuck boffins declare after breaking open Wajam ad injector
Quote:The technology industry has numerous terms for sneaky software, including malware, adware, spyware, ransomware, and the ever adorable PUPs – potentially unwanted programs. But there isn't always a clear difference between malware and less threatening descriptors.
In a research paper distributed this month through pre-print server ArXiv, a pair of researchers from Concordia University in Montreal, Canada – Xavier de Carné de Carnavalet and Mohammad Mannan – show that in the case of software known as Wajam, these categorical distinctions obscure how adware relies on the same untrustworthy techniques as malicious code.

Exemplar Foundation: Save the Day. Save the World. |

We're here to save the world, not just save the day. We are an independent, non-government, and not-for-profit organization dedicated to charitable and humanitarian causes. We seek to improve the lives of people, no matter where they are. Above all, we strive to be exemplars.
The Exemplar Foundation is open to partnerships with like-minded organizations and individuals who share our mission and values. Together, we can change the world.
Find out more at www.exemplarfoundation.org
Or, alternatively, if you prefer... Acyl, what the hell are you doing? Well, if you've clicked on a base portal on Everlasting/Homecoming recently, you may have noticed that The Legendary is coalitioned with two supergroups. Riot Force, and something called Exemplar Foundation.
Well, that's my project. This was something I wanted to do back in 2012, before the sundown announcement hit and everything went to hell. And yes, I have stubbornly kept the URL for all these years. Because that's a real-live website. If a picture's worth a thousand words, I'm not sure what a faux marketing site is worth, but there you go. For you, though? On the Legendary forums, you get the straight pitch.
The Fantastic Four comics went through a period where the F4 was the Future Foundation. A Baxter Building that was a living, breathing, community, not just the Richards family. Then there's Atomic Robo and Tesladyne. Bruce Wayne runs a charitable foundation. Several, even. DC has STAR Labs too, but...
The Legendary is a Justice League/Avengers style superteam, which is the most basic of superhero team-up groups. And that's cool. But what I've been toying with is something a little different. Call it the idea of... think tank or research group, in a world of costumed superhumans. The charity. The advocacy group. The NGO. The not-for-profit.
Canonically, based on the ask-a-dev Loregasms post-2012, Paragon City University offers various free classes to costumed heroes, but the university explicitly does not provide stuff like powers testing for kids with mutant powers. Hero Corps does all kinds of stuff, but they're for-profit. Freedom Corps and Longbow exist, but the armed Longbow division is now the public face in Paragon and the Rogue Isles.
But there's more to making a difference than facepunching.
Now, of course, City of Heroes is a combat MMO. I know that. All the content is about pew pew and freem. Obviously. I haven't lost my mind. But it's an RP and story concept, yeah?
I'm also, admittedly, using Exemplar Foundation as a bit of an outreach and networking thing. There's already a couple of folks with alts in it who aren't old crew from The Legendary on Virtue. At some point I'll probably open the doors more widely, but for now, you get a look at what I've been up to.
So, here it is. Exemplar Foundation.

Welcome to the Relaunch of the Drenivian House of Builds. Our First client is Terrence Knight who wanted a "Budget" build for a Rad/SS Tanker. Considering you get 30 merits for a morality mission now (and that is a huge Fuck Yeah) I was able to a bit more reachy in this. IE the 1 Luck of the Gambler recharge to give you 50% bonus rech. So for Alpha slotting i would either go with Spiritual (it makes the aborb clicky a 46 second recharge at T4!) or Cardiac (1.32 end/sec with all toggles and sprint on). I will begin work on the Bells and Whistles version (which will have Superior ATOs and Purples) after you give an appraisal of the powers and such.

PSA:Custom chat channel issues. |

We've discovered today that custom channels like 'The Legendary' become unavailable to send to or receive messages from while you are in a Mission instance or the SG base. So keep that in mind when playing for the time being. You may miss chat while running missions.

Given Inf is a lot easier to build via the market than it is from individual drops pre-50, this is a great idea and timesaver for folks who...may have a shit-ton of alts they need to get up to speed. lol

Re-made Cyberman 8 and a couple of other characters. I'm on Everlasting.
Do we have a "Legendary" chat channel set up yet? Also - is there a global chat channel in general? Because the ONLY clue that anyone is using chat AT ALL is all the calling for teams in the "Looking for Team" channel/tab.
When is anyone online to invite me to the Legendary? Say the word and I'll show up.
Also - do we have a redside group?
