Hacking the Governator

mytrip writes, "The Democratic rival to California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger acknowledged that his aides were responsible for obtaining a controversial audio file, in which the Governator was heard disparaging members of other races, in a move that has led to allegations of Web site hacking. A source close to Angelides told CNET News.com that it was possible to 'chop' off the Web links and visit the higher-level 'http://speeches.gov.ca.gov/dir/' directory, which had the controversial audio recording publicly viewable. No password was needed, the source said." And jchernia notes, "As an aside, the California Highway Patrol is running the investigation — maybe the Internet is a truck after all."

    How long before Schwarznazi makes "asking related questions" a crime, like chopping off the more specific part of a URL? Especially if he automatically spits out answers that reveal he's a robot from the future who hates people sent here to destroy us?

  2. proof that we're different? by Kunta+Kinte · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    ...to try and pretend like we are all the same...

    Dude, who's pretending? Do you have any scientific evidence we are not?

    We are all scientist around here correct? We are you getting that data to draw your conclusions?

    I know it can't be your social experience, we know better than to assume a casual relationship because of some apparent loose correlation of data ( correlation we are not sure exists in the first place ).

    We are all different, physically, mentally, socially, etc.

    Again, honestly. How so?

    What about me, a black man, is inheritedly mentally different from the white guy next to me?

    Do you have any evidence to back up your assertions at all?
