Actually, "bobolhando" is a joke site. And, if you go to the "source" on the blog (the Twitter feed of the blog's main author), you will see:

Roughly translated to:

To be clear, you can use the release for production purposes but this requires a support contract. This is not unlike many other commerical operating systems or for that matter, other software products. For more details on the support offerings, see the links from the main page http://bit.ly/dkhwZ6. As for the other restrictions, many of them are similar to again other commerical products - they're not be redistributed by third-parties, etc.

The Republicans, especially the Tea Party wing, want the United States government to spend less money.

Just read an article about farming subsidies, which shows some interesting exceptions to that rule.

Try combining a rounded corner with a background gradient on IE9 ... Fail

Show me a man with nothing to hide, and I'll show you this guy.

Yeah.. one thing that really annoys me.. is that when doing a border-radius with a background gradient, the gradient bleeds through the visual...

I've blogged about this a couple of times... it's actually pretty bad that the two combinations of features I can realistically see used the most often together don't work (look at /. for example of corners plus gradients)... It's a pretty simple thing by comparison to the entire canvas element.

In fact this isn't a first time such dumb lawsuit is filled.
Last time a user to claimed 150000$ in damages from a small website for few offensive comments that were posted against him.
Actually the case was settled to 1000$ and removal of the comments.

Can we just go ahead and get a "-1, Goatse" mod option?

Perhaps we could get /. to display the dereferenced URL instead of bit.ly, etc. -- hardly rocket science (don't click on any of these, obviously...):

I just finished watching the MythBusters episode to which you referred. The YouTube version is divided into two files. The link included here points to the second file (the fingerprint segment starts about 1:40 into the clip). There is some introductory stuff about the fingerprint scanners used in the first file, but the linked-to file contains the footage in which they beat the door lock scanner.

While it's true that they fooled two fingerprint scanners (one connected to a laptop, the other a standalone door lock), neither of those scanners is in any way similar to the one on my Toshiba. Both of the scanners beat in the MythBusters episode use the photocopier design. The thing being scanned (a thumb in this case) is held steady while the reader moves back and forth under it (or takes a "picture" of it). The scanner built into my Toshiba laptop has no moving parts and is only about 1/8th of an inch top to bottom (and the approximate width of a human finger side-to-side). The human user must drag a finger over the scanner. This design feature is what, I believe, would make a Toshiba-style scanner more difficult to beat with a gummy bear attack.

Could a Toshiba-style fingerprint scanner be fooled with a ballistic gel, latex or copied-to-paper attack? Probably. Provided the issues of mirroring and ridges vs. troughs could be dealt with adequately.

Anyhow, thanks for bringing the MythBusters episode to my attention. It was interesting that they had to lick the gel/latex/paper to make the hack work (I blow moist air onto my finger to get better performance with my Toshiba's scanner). Also, they concluded the (presumably pricey) standalone door lock scanner was easier to fool than the (relatively inexpensive) one connected to the laptop.

If you want an even more amazing view of Stonehenge, here's a visiting tip that doesn't seem to be that well known - if you plan ahead and fill out this form:
http://bit.ly/bYertb ...you can get inside the ropes and get within touching distance of the stones at sunrise. You get the place pretty much to yourself *and* the major road running right by the site is completely empty. It's a genuinely humbling experience and you can get views like this.

Yeah, go ahead and write me, English Heritage.
(although I still feel bad about the moment I found I was accidentally standing on a halfburied lintel.)

We are traditionally against GM, although tests remain, just as we are proud of being the first country to grant women voting rights, suffrage, and being "Nuclear Free", although we do have Radiation Therepy and smoke detectors with Americium

In regards to omnivorism, try playing another round of "Defensive Omnivore Bingo" ;) http://bit.ly/veganbingo

We can live just fine with animal byproducts or without, without "special care", although compare people of each lifestyle and come to your own conclusions, the worlds becoming obese because of Veganism, right? I live in New Zealand, now the worlds third most obese nation, its a disgrace.

I use positive examples when talking about what we do to animals with people, I'm not here to argue for the 56 Billion land animals killed annually (UN FOA 2007 PDF http://bit.ly/56billion ), I mention the Chickens I look after, they get into mischief :) http://bit.ly/chickensax

I've many more videos, taken on my iPhone 4 on my YouTube account.

Theres something very sad that so many treat animals as just "property", as things, an "it", rather than a "he" or "she".

Check this one out: I think "electric hand" is a #bone (http://bit.ly/dc5l0T) ... With 99.6% certainty, no less.

It gets the association from things of the form "electric hand held X". Ambiguous phrases like that can be a killer. I'm actually surprised that "hand held" is common. I'd expect "handheld" and "hand-held" to be far more common.

Next time you hear a politician talking about "securing the Internet" through legislation, remind them of this:

Granny's medic alert device failing to summon help from Symantec's "beg for mercy" captive portal would make a dynamite campaign ad, wouldn't it?
http://bit.ly/adEngl

So unless US politicians really want to shut off the home internet on a majority the voters, every Netgear, every Linksys, every tablet and iPod, every Wii and Playstation, every home alarm system, every voip phone, every digital picture frame, you name it, which is made before this "grand solution" can imposed will end up with a blanket exemption.

That's pretty much everything with an ethernet port or wifi.

Except, of course, those systems from Microsoft and any other vendors that might go along with the plan. But look out! If their big power play is successful, they've won themselves the ability to f*** with their customers' network connections!

Way to go guys, let us know how that works out for ya.
