HP's Webcam's Are Racist?

I'm hoping that this is some sort of glitch that somehow made it past HP's quality control, but this video is a PR nightmare for them. HP's webcam doesn't seem to recognize (facial recognition) African Americans, and the funny thing about it is black people have been here for a while.

Fix this HP!!!!

Hackers Stage Fake Nuke Detonation On Live TV: Czech Republic Is Not laughing

I have a special place in my heart for hackers, simply because they usually come up with cool and better ways of doing things. But every now and then, they go beyond the realm of average hacking and enter the world of humor. Such is the case for 6 Czech Republic who sneaked a fake nuclear blast into a news channel’s weather webcam.

Not everyone thought it was funny, as the 6 could get 3 years each in the stripy hole for “spreading false information”. I wonder how many people crapped their pants when this first aired? I have to give it to the hackers for their creativity though.
