- Windows 9 will have many visual be changes – digi.no

It is expected that Windows 9, also known as Threshold, will be presented by Microsoft as early as next month – and will be made available to developers in an early test version.

In the meantime, it pops up more and more information about the news Microsoft will bring to the table, especially when it comes to interfaces.

before has there been talk about the features that originally were to be added to Windows 8.1 only comes in Windows 9 This applies first and foremost a real Start Menu (which still safeguards Metro interface visual expression), as well as the ability to run Metro applications on the desktop. Windows 9 will also scale much better between different types of devices, whether traditional PCs or tablets.

The website WinBeta has even more information. Modern UI (it was previously called Metro) will appear in a later suit in Windows 9, enter the site.

For example, on a tablet, which only use touchscreen, Windows 9 remove the desktop completely. Today you can walk away from the Metro applications and over a traditional desktop that whatsoever is not optimized for touch, when using Windows RT-based board. This contributes to confusion and Microsoft will ensure that Windows RT only use Metro interface.

Naturally the users of traditional PCs with mice and keyboards get the opposite experience, where the desktop is in focus. Hybrid machines, as Surface Pro will still be able to use the Start menu in full screen, which is more touch friendly.

Star The menu will also feature several improvements, writes WinBeta. More interactive tiles are one of these, this means that you can perform certain functions within the current tile without opening the application. It will of course require updates from application developers.

The digital assistant Cortana, which currently can be found in Windows Phone 8.1, will also get a special tile in Windows 9, with features similar to the mobile version.

Windows 9 will also receive a notification center on par with Windows Phone 8.1.

It was previously known that side menu in Windows 8.1, called “charms” disappears. WinBeta confirms it and says that the functionality of this, with buttons for sharing and other shortcuts will be baked directly into applications. It also requires updates from developers.

It is claimed by several sources that the date of the first announcement of Windows 9 is September 30, it is thus not long until we should find out how many of these rumors are true .

Is “death switch” something for us? – ITavisen.no

Comment: California law shall destroy mobile thefts.

Tuesday, 26 August 2014 – 1:20 p.m.

Both Android and Apple phones can be deactivated by the user (see this article). Similar solutions are also available for Windows Phone.

All come with
But that’s just the iPhone that has built a so-called “kill switch” that turns your phone temporarily unusable remotely . All other apps that just locks the phone superficial. But both Google and Microsoft are headed with similar systems.

Meanwhile, traditional fighting cocks Samsung and Apple for once agreed. Recently, they made an agreement on a common barrier system.

New Law in California
In California signed a night Norwegian time Gov. Jerry Brown a state that does effektv remote interlock mandatory for all phones to be sold in the state.

In Minnesota, they already have a similar law, but without the requirement that kill feature to be turned on (one may ask whether the law then has no meaning).

Should ease the workload
California law has come after the claims of the police, who have had so much to do to solve mobile thefts that they barely have time for the really serious crimes.

As you know it is so in the United States that local police chiefs (sheriffs) are selected. Seems most people they do not rivers, they will not have a job anymore. Thus, it is actually important to solve everyday crime, not only to go after the Norwegian police like to call “the big fish” and “perpetrators.”

California police both at the state and municipal level, hoping that required remote Disabling will make it less attractive to steal mobile phones, and that the market for handling stolen goods and reselling will shrivel.

Vanishing get clarifications
In this country we have seen single earner ( which unfortunately are not representative – only 1.8 percent of all mobile thefts in Norway was solved in 2013) where the police using the “Find My iPhone” has quickly managed to find the thief and bring the phone back to the rightful owner.

That’s fine, but it goes without saying that police pressure areas not normally have the capacity to take away all such cases, no matter how simple they are to fix.

Thinking preventive
Therefore, we may have in this country thought preventively.

What we like California introduced compulsory, remote lock? Would we then experience a dramatic decline in mobile thefts, simply because there is no point in stealing them more?

did not work
Previously we have seen how IMEI-lock system (barring telephone electronic serial number) has fallen in fish because it only works in some countries.

Most people are quick to block the subscription when the phone is astray, but does not help large. There is no free phone calls to distant lands mobile thieves are after longer (also increases the risk of disclosure). Selling goods on the black market is much more lucrative.

can be abused
About a death button to be effective, it must be hard to get around to hackers. We must also guard against it can be abused, either by criminals or by the authorities.

Just lately has been a major topic of discussion in the United States in connection with California law. Parental control is actually available to the police if they have a court order.

Drømmevektøy for PST
But what happens if federal monitoring agencies such as the NSA, CIA or Homeland Security to access? These agencies invoke the Patriot Act, anti-terrorism law that has been shown to override both state laws and the civil rule of law at the federal level.

Here at home we feel today might reasonably confident that PST will not be able to abuse Remote mobile lock and / or the possibility of other remote manipulation. Assuming that Parliament does not give them the powerful extended powers they ask for.

Any good suggestions
matter: With a doubling of the number of mobile thefts in Norway in recent years speaks we request a formidable problem for ordinary Norwegian citizens.

Any suggestions for good solutions therefore are welcomed, even if they come from distant California, which sometimes introduce laws that seen with Norwegian eyes may appear as weird.

It is not only just assumptions behind Facebook’s new “click trap” -sensur.

For example see the how long it goes from people click on a link with a titillating text until they come back to Facebook again.

This gives a good indication of how interesting the content was for the reader. Will she or he quickly returned, it indicates that the article was not what it pretended to be. And this happens often enough, it will be removed from the news feed.

Much reading, small alike
They will also look at the articles that are widely read but little alike (in the sense that few click “like”).

This is also a sign that it did not meet expectations and most likely is a fool article.

According to Facebook’s own user survey 80 percent prefer that the titles are designed in a way that tells them about the article is worth reading.

Discrimination Ombudsman: Stians redress must pay for English – Aftenposten

– This case shows that it should be possible to award redress to those who are discriminated against, says Ørstavik.

The Ombudsman decided in the summer that Stian Outbuildings were discriminated against when he was denied by airlines to fly alone to Teneriffe to visit her mother. Outbuilding has Down syndrome, and Norwegian staff at Gardermoen believed he posed a “safety risk” because he was in their opinion, might need extra help.

Aftenposten reported earlier Friday that Outbuildings yesterday announced lawsuit against the English. The reason is controversy about how much he should receive in damages from the company, as well as a claim for reimbursement of attorney fees.

Outbuildings demanded 25,000 million in damages from the company, while the English offered him 2000

Norwegian has apologized for the incident and said Outbuildings were denied access to the flight due to a misunderstanding that arose at the airport on his need for assistance on board.

Must burn more

– I have been very concerned that discrimination must sting more for those who discriminate. Now it is a matter between the parties whether he should be rehabilitated or not, and how much he will get. I have asked the authorities to look at this practice, says Ørstavik.

She believes any redress should be set by an independent party and has suggested that the Equality Tribunal should have this authority. She believes the committee should also be empowered to decide whether the appellant is entitled to free legal aid.

Now it so that people who have been discriminated against themselves must seek redress from the actor in question, and that this set of parties between.

About redress amount says Discrimination and Accessibility Act that “reparation for non-pecuniary damage shall be determined to what is reasonable based on the damage extent and nature of parties and other circumstances.” In this case, the parties have a far different opinion of what they think is a fair redress for discrimination Outbuildings were exposed.

Also read:

Huge gap

– It is important to remember that he not only denied a journey. He has been the victim of discrimination, and it is something much more serious. He’s been there on the basis of who he is, and it’s insulting. Immediately, it seems to me that English here should clean up much better, says Ørstavik.

She emphasizes that she has no authority to instruct the company.

English also refuses to pay Outbuildings lawyer costs grievance and discrimination case, because they believe the cost is unnecessary. The company points out that neither the complaint process in the company or the Ombudsman have no costs or requirements as to form, and that this process can easily run itself, possibly with the help of friends and acquaintances. The company also writes that it believes 15,000 dollars sounds more than a lot out.



Same language

Ørstavik say it is relatively common for complainants to use legal process in LDO.

– You should be able to run an appeal process in ourselves. However, it is not uncommon, especially in the face of major players, the aggrieved individual wants extra security by also having your own lawyer. And a meeting with a company such as English, too many perceived as overwhelming.

– For many it is a major barrier to complain. It’s tough to stand up and talk about discrimination, and tough to know that you may be left with all costs, even if you win the case, she adds.

Outhouse ‘attorney Mostly Grounded stresses it is the principle, more than money, which means that the client has varslt that he will go to the cause. Ørstadvik says there is little case law in this area and believes it is important to have several such cases to the court.

– We have too few such cases, and it is important to set guidelines and make a system that stings for those who discriminate, and not just those who are discriminated against, says Ørstavik.

Information Manager Lasse Sandakerveien Nilsen in English told Aftenposten on Thursday night that the company had not had time to consider process the notification they received from Outbuildings Thursday, but the company wanted to continue dialogue and was determined to resolve the matter amicably.

Here and Twitter account (and Google+), you could find the latest mobile phones from Apple, Samsung, HTC, Sony, LG and all the others – often for weeks before they were released.

Behind the site stood the American Evan Blass. Three weeks ago, could ITavisen announce that he is giving up, after two years of updates from the mobile world.

The shrimp enzyme may make it easier to judge rapists – forskning.no

Samples are taken after a rape, in certain cases, contain large amounts of DNA from aggrieved, mixed with some DNA from the perpetrator.

And to get the DNA from the sperm must now wash sperm by rinsing them repeatedly to remove DNA from the victim. This work is done by hand, which is time consuming and it may be detrimental to simultaneously wash away sperm.

A special enzyme from arctic shrimp has been shown to be able to wash the DNA traces from rape so well that Researchers at Straight Genetic Centre in Tromsø believe they have found a method that will improve the way laboratories work on rape cases.

Eating victim’s DNA

Put simply eat shrimp enzyme up DNA from victims and allows the DNA from the sperm stay again.

– A sperm is quite robust since it is to survive a natural environment, and therefore survive it too enzyme, explains Lars Uhlin-Hansen, Managing Director at Straight Genetic center.

– It increases your chance of getting a clean DNA profile of the perpetrator, which in turn will strengthen the evidentiary weight of the track, says Gunn Hege Olsen, associate and project manager at the University of Tromsø.

Strong evidence in court

She believes the method is more efficient, safer and will cause the DNA evidence is stronger in the right, and thus gives the judge a better basis for to consider the evidence.

method must now be quality assured before it can be used, and the researchers hope that the process can be automated, which would be a great advantage for laboratories to analyze many samples.

Forensic Genetic Center at the University of Tromsø doing research, but has also recently been granted accreditation for including DNA analysis of trace samples.

Sneak Peek: Microsoft Surface Pro 3 All good things come in 3? – Klikk.no

If a button week, Microsoft Surface Pro 3 on sale in Norway and 27 other countries. When it has already been launched in the United States, Canada and Japan. Third Generation Land has consistently received good reviews in the international press. Yesterday received the Norwegian IT press its test specimens and we’ve spent barely 24 hours to familiarize ourselves with Surface Pro 3 We come back with a solid test of Surface Pro 3 before it goes on sale on Thursday 28 August.

Same, but new

Visually, there is no doubt that Surface Pro 3 still belongs to Microsoft Surface-family. Meanwhile Surface Pro 3 had some important improvements to Surface Pro 2 makes it even more likely to take over from the traditional laptop.

– People expect that technology is with them all the time and there is no longer a clear distinction between work and leisure. The core concept of the Surface Pro 3 is that it is optimized to allow users to switch between work and leisure, between productive and creative work and play on the other side said Tom Vandendooren, sales manager for Land in Europe, the Norwegian press release yesterday. In addition, it was stressed that the Surface Pro 3 is a tablet with a keyboard, but a full-fledged PC, which will also be the only computer you need.

And just where did the previous versions of the Land some weaknesses, as we pointed out in our tests. Among other things, it was almost impossible to sit and write a Surface on your lap, something we often do journalists at press conferences, airports and other settings in which you do not always have a sturdy table to put your PC. In such cases, a regular laptop have been more stable. It’s not called laptop for nothing.

This is new

Microsoft has taken some important steps to Land Pro 3 The most important thing is that the keyboard is upgraded. It was also with Surface Pro 2 but on Surface Pro 3 has the magnetic fastened received an additional magnetic field so that it becomes like a dobbelhengsel and the area of ​​the keyboard that is attached to the screen becomes larger.

This allows the Surface Pro 3 is more stable when it is used, for example while you have it on your lap. In addition, the kick stand – or support the back of the screen – become new. Now it is no longer only two adjustments, but you have more choices with a gradual transition from a very upright position to an almost flat position (22 to 150 degrees). This makes it easier to find a comfortable working position. And tall people will no longer struggle as much to get a good viewing angle, which actually was a problem in the first versions of the Land.

The unit has also received an upgrade. Now plug a little “find” that makes contact easier slipping into the charging jack. In the preceding Surface models, we experienced several times that the PC is not charged up because the magnetic switch not set 100 percent in the right position.

How much Microsoft has done with the keys on the new keyboard, we are a little uncertain. It may seem as if the keys have been given a little more resistance. While the size of the keyboard layout seems to be relatively equal between Land Surface Pro 2 and Pro 3, as the latter has been given a larger touchpad with physical pressure points in the two bottom corners. So far it feels a lot better.

Lighter and thinner

Although the appearance is similar to its predecessors, it is indeed Surface Pro 3 thinner and lighter than Land Pro 2 Surface Pro 3 is only 9.1 millimeters thick and weighs 798 grams (without keyboard).

The screen has also been upgraded on Surface Pro 3 that’s has grown from 10.5 to 12 inches and the aspect ratio is changed from 16: 9 on Surface Pro 2 to an aspect ratio of 3: 2 on Surface Pro 3 In comparison, the iPad an aspect ratio of 4: 3.

Our immediate impression of this change is positive, since 16: 9 screens are often a little ‘broad and narrow’ and makes you lose some “height” on the screen. “Height” is nice to have when connected to the keyboard (landscape mode) and you will be writing in Word or surfing the web. When our man fit more information in the height of a screen with aspect ratio 3: 2 compared with a 16: 9 screen. With the same number of inches is 3: 2 screen simply a larger screen area than the 16: 9 screen.

The screen resolution on Surface Pro 3 is also upgraded to 2160 x 1440 pixels. The screen is blank and that of its predecessors, we think fingerprints and grease stains sitting a little too well. The glossy screen makes lamps and other shiny things easily create reflections in the screen, but so far we think the screen brightness mostly manages to counteract this.

New Pen

Surface Pro 3 also get a brand new pen. This is developed by Microsoft and has also received several pressure-sensitive zones.

It’s been a little thicker, which we think makes it more ergonomic. In addition, it has been more buttons. A push button on top can be programmed, for example, to open a blank page in OneNote notes application. Our initial impression of the pen is that it is good to take notes with. Microsoft also says that they have worked hard to reduce the delay between the pen and the screen so that your feelings are as natural as possible.

Equal feed

On the inside it’s also done a lot to make room for a powerful PC -innmat placed into it most of all looks like a large tablet. According to Windows-director of Norway, Christian Almskog, Microsoft has developed over 100 components for yourself to achieve this. Inside, our test unit located a fourth generation i5 processor, 4GB memory and a 128GB SSD. Surface Pro 3 also comes with Intel Core i3 and Intel Core i7 processor and various configurations of memory and storage. As before, we have written that we must steer away 64 GB version, since these positions are constantly plagued by poor storage. On our 128 GB drive has 93 GB free after we just set up Windows.

In relation to Surface Pro 2, we find only a small change in the type of processor on the new Surface Pro 3, so we expect the Surface Pro 3 performs on par with its predecessor.

Preliminary conclusion

After using Surface Pro 3 active in less than 24 hours, it is too early to draw a final conclusion. But many of the improvements are for the better. We like that the screen is greater, the keyboard has become more stable and one can select the display angle. We’re a little excited about battery life and we see that some foreign tests have commented that it could be better.

We must also point out that Surface Pro 3 is no cheap PC alternative. The combination of Intel Core i5 and 128GB (which is the lowest spec you should buy – i3 / 128 GB does not exist) costs 8645 crowns. In addition, make out with 1.119 million for the keyboard and strictly speaking you should have a dock to 1729 dollars. When the price of “PC” 11,493 crowns. In addition, you can probably probably add on a thousand patch for an additional power supply (nice to have one at work and one at home) and various adapters.

We must say that the Surface Pro 3 may be the product that can actually replace a regular traditional laptop and give mobile workers a tool that is both possible to use at work and home and where the pen might can help you finally can take digital notes. We’ll be back with a full test with test results and measurements within a few days.

Closed seismic in Svalbard before time – NRK



Martin Norman, kampanjelder Greenpeace.

Oljedirektoratet rakk å gjennomføre om lag halvparten av de seismiske undersøkelsene ved Svalbard, før prosjektet ble stanset.

Direktoratet benekter å ha blitt utsatt for politisk press, men blir ikke trodd.

– Jeg er ganske sikker på at det er på grunn av politisk press. Dette her har vært helt uspiselig for både Venstre og KrF. Dermed også får denne regjeringen. Det sier kampanjeleder i Greenpeace, Martin Norman.

Startet uten politisk godkjenning

Siden juli har seismikkskipet Artemis Atlantic samlet inn havbunnsdata i et mildt sagt omstridd område, fra Bjørnøya i sør til Svalbard i nord. Det som har provosert miljøbevegelsen mest, er at undersøkelsene startet uten politisk godkjenning.

– Det er mye rart som foregår i forbindelse med ferier. Dette er jo et veldig kontroversielt område å åpne opp for seismikkskyting, sier Norman.

Nekter for press

Men i Oljedirektoratet avviser kommunikasjonssjef Eldbjørg Vaage Melberg at politisk press har ført til stans i seismikkundersøkelsene.

– Nå avslutter vi seismikken, både for at vi var ferdig med programmet vårt, og det passet og veldig godt med at vi ikke hadde mer penger igjen, sier Melberg.

– Er dere blitt utsatt for politisk press i denne saken?

– Nei det er vi ikke. Det er ingen politikere som har vært i kontakt med oss, sier Melberg.

Glad for at det er avsluttet

Tidligere stortingsrepresentant og leder i Finnmark SV, Johnny Ingebrigtsen, sier det er prisverdig at Oljedirektoratet har avsluttet seismikkundersøkelsene ved Svalbard.

Han fester imidlertid ingen lit til forklaringen om at prosjektet ble avsluttet fordi man var gått tom for penger.

– Det har jeg ingen tro på. Men la nå det være det fikenbladet de skjuler bak hvis det er det de trenger, sier Ingebrigtsen.

Amphetamine more prevalent than heroin among the heaviest of addicts – forskning.no

Norwegian Institute for Alcohol and Drug Research (SIRUS) interviewed 1,020 drug users in Oslo, Bergen, Stavanger, Sandnes, Trondheim, Tromsø and Kristiansand.

– The interviews provide a snapshot of the illegal so-called heavy drug use in seven Norwegian cities fall of 2013, says Linn Gjersing, a researcher with SIRUS.

She says that this is the most comprehensive survey department has ever made of heavy drug users outside treatment or prison. Now present the results of a new report (see bottom of article).

Different usage from city to city

The interviewed in Oslo and Bergen boasts from the other towns in that a high proportion had injected heroin. 65 percent of respondents in Oslo said they had injected heroin in the past four weeks, while 44 percent said the same in Bergen. In the other cities reported 7 to 23 percent the same.

Trondheim separated by more than half said they had injected morphine.

Stavanger / Sandnes also distinguished. There, 32 per cent answered that they had injected substances other than heroin, amphetamines or morphine last four weeks. These included Subutex, subuxone, methadone and GHB.

Amphetamine most used drug

Nationwide amphetamine type that most of the respondents had injected last four weeks (60 percent), but its use varied from city to city.

– The high proportion of amphetamines may indicate that this is a fabric with good availability in Norway. Seizures Figures from NCIS show that it is significantly more amphetamine seizures than heroin seizures in the various police districts, says Gjersing.

Almost all of the respondents had tried heroin at some time, but only a little less than half of the total sample had injected heroin in the last four weeks. There were several among those under 35 years who had smoked heroin the first time they used the drug, compared with those who were older.

Among the elderly, there were several who had injected the first time they used the drug. One third of respondents had used both amphetamines and heroin in the past four weeks.

Most non-fatal overdoses in Bergen

The proportion who reported having had overdoses lifetime, past year and past month varied from city to city.

Bergen and Trondheim gave 71 percent said they had had one or more non-fatal overdoses ever. In comparison, just over half of Tromsø the same.

Bergen was where most users had had one or more overdoses during the past year, followed by Oslo and Trondheim. In addition, Bergen and Oslo, the highest proportion who had had a non-fatal overdose last four weeks.

Price differences between the cities

Those who were interviewed in Oslo reported having paid 200 kroner for a user dose of heroin (0.2 grams), while users in Stavanger / Sandnes, Trondheim and Tromsø had paid £ 500.

In Oslo and Stavanger / Sandnes gave the users to have paid 100 pounds for a user dose of amphetamine (0.2 grams), while users in Tromsø had paid 200 kroner.

Low crime and prostitution

Gjersing says that there were relatively few reported income from illegal activities. One third reported drug sales as a source of income, while only 11 percent said they raised money through proceeds of crime. Even fewer (two percent) reported prostitution as a source of income.

instead gave a major proportion lawful sources of income. Most respondents reported more than one source of income. It is therefore likely that the legal income was supplemented by illicit sources of income when needed.

Gjersing stresses that the findings of the study can be based on random variation. It may be that, for example heroin is increasingly used in some cities, but this was not readily available at the time the survey was conducted. She points out therefore that this type of research must be repeated to be able to say something about the situation over time.

Can not stop IS messages – ITavisen.no

Twitter blocked terrorists. Now they have moved.

Friday, 22 August 2014 – 7:23

Previously sent the Syrian-Iraqi terrorist group Islamic State (IS) their messages via Twitter.

Has Changed platform
But after Twitter began blocking their accounts, they have changed communication platform.

Now use the Islamic State of Diaspora, a decentralized social network that was launched in 2010 (see video below).

Spread throughout the world
network is spread over a large number of contact points, so that it becomes so virtually impossible to weed out messages from terrorist groups, criminals and others who use the technology to illegal and harmful activities.

The team behind Diaspora has posted a message on his blog where they take sharp distance of IS and their activity.

– There is no method
same time they emphasize that unlike Twitter is not able to stop the messages.

– There is no way for us to change or remove content from a particular node in the network (which we call a “pod”). This can be one of the reasons that IS was attracted to our network, according to the blog post.

Taking contact with each
Those behind behind Diaspora has nevertheless as best they can to stop the IS messages.

They contact each node and ask them to keep looking for material from IS and removed it when they come across it.

– Not much to do
But this is something close to an impossible task, we believe Jamie Bartlett, author of the book “The Dark Net”.

– There is not much to do. Because of the basic technology is decentralized services like this incredibly difficult to get hold of the police. Every time they crack down on it, the service a little smarter and a little better at hiding. It is absolutely inevitable that organizations that IS is among the first to use such innovations, says Bartlett said.
