I'm no terrorist but this is how I do it. I personally don't trust anything. So I use a completely blank laptop and my Knoppix live CD. Then I mount my SD drive and push everything I need to save to that. Then I put my SD cards back with my camera, snap a few pictures and enjoy my flight. People only look at you weird when they ask you to turn on the laptop and it just does nothing. Either that or load DOS 6.22 on it.
It's funny that McCain dances around an answer and Obama lines out the methods in which he hopes to achieve his goals. One blows the typical smoke the other seems to have thought some of this through.
So what does this ruling really do for you? Nothing except make you "feel" like you have privacy. If they want to look at your GPS logs they have legal precendence to do so without a warrant, and they now also have a law in writing that keeps it from being criminal.
Only because the dems wanted to steal voters from the republicans. For no other reason did they pay that douchebag respect. I remember trickle down economics and had to live through it, Regan was not a great president. No matter what the current popular hype is.
Shit does that mean I need to count 01, 02, 03? Or is it 001, 002, 003? Or maybe. Well shit, how high do these number thingies go anyways? How many leading zeros would that be?
McCain didn't vote at all. That is just as bad as saying yes. Except for outwardly admitting you don't have the backbone to do jack shit about anything. It equates to shouting at the top of your lungs about something, until you are outnumbered, then you fold and do nothing.
Fuck a new political party. Nothing personal and I don't mean it as a shot at you. But this system is done. It is broken beyond repair. At least the type of repair that doesn't require an overthrow.
Yeah I'm with you on this. I'm not scared of terrorists and don't know anyone who is. I mean seriously. Why am I going to worry about something I have no direct control over? Seems silly to me and a good way to ruin the rest of your day. I think it bullshit spewed by the media and our government. They use it to pass laws to gain greater power.
I'll tell you why they did it. It's because at the current time some of their other interfaces have not been upgraded and are not compatible with IE7. You may not even use them, but if someone sees IE 7 on your desktop, they want it on theirs and so on and so forth. It's not that anyone in their right mind wants to keep IE 6 around, but it is likely that is what is currently supported according to their corporate image. It also has to do with preserving standards and how the techs support your PC and the efficiency of how it is supported. Bleeding edge doesn't happen in corporate environments, hell leading edge doesn't even happen most of the time. Its slow and steady movements forward. If you jumped on the bandwagon for every new upgrade your network would be a mess and would show no signs of a standard. Software is tested in corporations, with everything else that already exists inside the shop. They even have a position dedicated to just that task. They are commonly called desktop engineers. They typically spend a good part of their workday developing and testing products to integrate into the desktop standard image. This is because something as simple as a non supported browser can cause a user all sorts of issues and then cost hours of time (read: money) for the tech to diagnose it. This is why you pay for an IT department, there are many headaches the user never sees and it is because we work it out first.
Combine this with the reintroduction of privately funded Militray contractors and guess what is going to happen? Especially since you'll never get the US military to shoot at Americans. You'll need a privately funded military that has better weapons than the US Military does to do that. Funny how recently a whole bunch of them have cropped up. I just wonder when the rest of the country s going to wake the fuck up, because its already too late, we lost.
I get what you're saying but it would be a huge mistake to drop scientific theory. I can make many correlations and see many patterns, but my mind seeks to do that. So to me that means that AI has advanced to the point that it makes the same mistakes humans do. It assumes things based on what it sees.... That pattern it finds could simply be a biproduct of the subsystem it is running on top of. Kind of like Newton's theorys. The only things I agree on in the article is that computers are capable of processing massive amounts of data and all of our current theories about the universe are wrong.
It took more than a month? Maybe in the 50's, the 1750's when we didn't have them fancy engines inside of dem der boats. But give me a break... It takes less than a week to cross the atlantic by boat.
Well I would say that one of the main differences is that in one case I point a projectile weapon capable of killing someone all the while holding them to the ground to prevent them from escaping. The other I tell the douchebag to open his fucking ears because I don't like repeating myself to shitbags.
Yeah good point, I'm not sure what the fucking difference is either. asshole.
Whatever you do don't use CD's. You get data creep over the course of a few years. Use a HD and make multiple copies. It is the only way to ensure that you have it. Keep some of the drives in a safe deposit box so if your house burns down you aren't trying to carry your PC or any weird shit out with you.
In the 10 plus years I'vwe been in this business I've never snooped through stuff that didn't belong to our company. I firmly believe in a code of ethics for sys admins. No one hold me accountable for it, but I still follow it. Why? For some reason all my arguements about personal privacy wouldn't mean shit if I read someone's email. Hell it would make me the hypocrite that I so dearly hate. So no, I don't snoop because I don't want to be the pot pointing my finger at the kettle. With that said. You violate policy and force me into some type of forensic investigation I will go into anything you've ever touched. I've done it before and I will do it again every time. I preach privacy, so I practice it too. I imagine after what I've been seeing as of late I'm one of the few left with some measure of personal responsiblity. Then again I've been told I live in a fantasy world because I actually think I can change it.
Stop trying to devalue the original poster's message. What happened in the past can't be directly corrected. We can make changes to ensure that it doesn't happen again, that is it. Bringing up how everyone else has already done it and deserves ridicule also is not the point here. The point is people violated my civil liberities, now. Right now, I have the power to do something about it. If these people still won't listen and still continue to fuck up my world I still have more options, but those are better left for another day. Bush is there now, we can make a statement to him now. Kennedy got shot, Clinton has to live with his wife, Rosevelt is dead. Get over past transgressions and stop calling things status quo. You may not have said it outright but your comment certainly insinuated it. Bush is in violation now, and we can make him and everyone involved answer for it. That means holding the dems accountable who bent over backwards to suck this assholes dick as well. Anyone who was complicit with this man's vision of world peace, freedom and democracy needs to be held accountable. End of story. People fuck our country up consistently and it happens when the good folks do nothing or you decide to waste time arguing the semantics of it all.
Sure you will. If it is setup right, you aren't getting around it. Not without lots of buzzers, lights and shit going off in any case. This is all figuratively speaking of course, there obviously will be no real buzzers and lights. But there will in fact be someone standing at your desk with your security escort out of the building. What most "technically savvy" users don't get is there are laws on our side. You screw with my system I will put you in jail, long time employee who is valuble to the company or not. You put my department and employer at risk because your ego compels you to act like a douchebag, it is my responsiblity to resolve said issue and protect our data. In our own network I would just turn off your network access. It's as easy as getting the offending mac and shutting off a port on the switch.
Now I know why they included that line in the LANL press release. To Kill a Slashdotter's Linux Jokes. Which also just so happens to be the title of my next novel.
Quote from article.
"Roadrunner was built using commercially available hardware, including aspects of commercial game console technologies. Roadrunner has a unique hybrid design comprised of nodes containing two AMD OpteronTM dual-core processors plus four PowerXCell 8iTM processors used as computational accelerators. The accelerators are a special IBM-developed variant of the Cell processors used in the Sony PlayStation® 3. Roadrunner uses a Linux operating system. The project's total cost is approximately $120 million."

Because only so much money exists? And there are these things in the real world called budgets... Just a guess though.

I want a magical terrorist detector. I would also like a purple unicorn with a pink horn. Can I pick those up on the second Tuesday of next week?
someone please mod this funny.

I'd be willing to bet they are being used in a military campaign currently.
Only because the dems wanted to steal voters from the republicans. For no other reason did they pay that douchebag respect. I remember trickle down economics and had to live through it, Regan was not a great president. No matter what the current popular hype is.

Because they needed a location for that movie "Into the Wild" ? Just a guess.
So that article was published in 07 good catch by all you rocket scientists. :-p
2001+14-9+1=2007 == last year's news.

Excuse my crudeness, but... You have to break some eggs to make an omelet.
