  1. There's an easier way. on Mobile Devices Banned From UK Cabinet Meetings Over Surveillance Fears · · Score: 1

    "Ministers in sensitive government departments have been issued with soundproof lead-lined boxes, which they must place their mobiles in when having sensitive conversations."

    Have they considered taking the battery out of their phone?

  2. Nice. Couldn't agree more.

  3. Believing in reality isn't bigoted, believing in fairy tails is just hiding your head in the sand and hoping it goes away.

    Oh, I understand just fine. It's your claims that keep changing, but seriously, Try to get the neighbors 15 year old to come over, I'm sure he can get it working for you.

    So, let me get this straight, you have an infinband switch as the backbone for your.... PS3 which you claim is directly connected to your modem. At least try to keep your bullshit consistent.

    The only port I can identify that they filter is 80. I'm even hosting ssh on it's native port.

    I also have Charter 100mbs service, and constantly get 100mbs, and host things just fine. They've always been fast. They can be terrible when something is broken, but when it's working properly it's great. Not sure whyh you have these issues.

  11. Re:Apt-get install clue on How To Use a Linux Virtual Private Server · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Step 1. Learn to use *nix as it was designed to be used, through the shell. I know you skipped this step because you think cPanel is a good idea.

  12. Re:Funny idea... He He He... on Dirigible Airship Prototype Approaches Completion · · Score: 1

    This country still has a strategic helium reserve because of the rarity and value of helium, and while it is true that this program is slowly being phased out and sold to private industry, there is growing concern in the scientific community about the uncontrolled release of helium from the use of party balloons and such. So much so that almost any university with a decent science program has a system in place to capture and re-liquefy helium used in experiments. Helium is more or less a non renewable resource because once released into the atmosphere it never come back down to earth. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oZkMQkHGj1s

    No need to commit suicide, just tow junk down into an unstable low orbit, leave the junk there, and then it's thrusters to boost back into a higher orbit and collect more.

  17. What key was that? on US Judge Rules Defendant Can Be Forced To Decrypt Hard Drive · · Score: 1

    The key to unencrypt that drive was a 4096 string of random bits. It was on that USB key you found in my microwave. Any other questions?
