Australian Qualifies For Quake Tournament With 2. Ping. Quake is a hard enough game as is, and that’s with a good connection. Now imagine playing in an international qualifier for a $1 million tournament on 2.

That’s the path that Daniel “dandaking” De Sousa walked on the weekend, carving his way through several Americans to qualify for the North American regional finals. Playing for Just A Minute (JAM) under the name “astroboy”, the Aussie Quake veteran managed to earn a spot amongst North America’s top 3. The regional finals are being played online as well, so the chances of dandaking qualifying through that gauntlet are much, much lower. Nonetheless, you have to appreciate someone who can qualify through conditions like these: And have a look at dandaking’s railgun accuracy on almost 2. Here’s the final frag, capped with a shotgun and a dial up internet quality ping of 2. Absolutely ridiculous. The qualification is a bit of vindication for dandaking as well, who played in the first North American qualifier only to be knocked out in the third round.

A small contingent of Australians have taken part in both qualifiers so far, but dandaking is the only one so far to get within a whisker of qualifying, let alone actually making it. After all, it’s Quake on 2. That should be astonishingly hard on any given day, but even more so in a tournament where North America’s best players are assembling for the largest Quake Champions tournament on offer.

Dandaking now has the option of playing the regional qualifiers in North America, if he or a sponsor can stump up for the flights to get him there. Failing that, he can try his hand at the offline tournament at Quake. Watch Rocky Road To Dublin Streaming. Con next month. You can rewatch the whole of dandaking’s qualifying match below.

ICE Says It Doesn't Track Down Undocumented Immigrants Using 'Stingray' Devices. Acting head of Immigrations and Customs Enforcement Thomas Homan told Sen. Ron Wyden the agency does not use cell- site simulators—a type of surveillance gear often referred to as a “Stingray” that can track down a specific mobile device by emulating cell phone towers—to locate undocumented immigrants.

Per Ars Technica, the August 1. ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations “does not use cell- site simulators for the purpose of civil immigration law enforcement.” But he added that ICE’s Homeland Security Investigations division, which targets national security threats and organized crime, uses the devices, though only after receiving a warrant. Homan also noted that ICE agents sometimes work in joint task forces with other “federal, state and local law enforcement partners, in furtherance of our shared public safety mission”—and that in those cases, Stingrays may sometimes be used. That caveat is important: In March, ICE used a Stingray variant known as a Hailstorm to locate 2. El Salvadorean man Rudy Carcamo- Carranza, who had entered the US illegally twice and was wanted in connection to alleged drunk driving and hit- and- run incidents.

The ICE officer involved in the investigation, Jeremy Mc. Watch The Many Adventures Of Winnie The Pooh HD 1080P here. Cullough, was a member of the ERO department but was also assigned to the FBI’s Violent Gang Task Force. So for ICE agents to use a cell- site simulator to track people suspected of immigration law violations, they just need to be assigned to such a unit. Wyden had asked ICE a number of questions about its use of the devices in May, though Homan’s letter does not appear to have totally addressed all of them. Cell- site simulators are controversial law enforcement tools because they spoof a regular base transceiver station, tricking all cellular devices in the area into connecting to it. While they allow police to track down a specific person (or at least their mobile device) almost instantly, they can only do so by casting a large dragnet.

In the process of spoofing the signal, Stingray devices can interfere with network access, including in some cases disrupting emergency calls. Homan’s letter, however, insisted that the devices refer “non- targeted mobile hardware” back to regular networks “in an amount of time that is not noticeable to the user,” saying interference only occurs if someone is dialing a number at the exact time the device is switched on.“In all circumstances, devices are always able to dial 9.
