    You must be one of those retards that posted the same comments over on lifehacker...

    I love how utterly uneducated you fools are.

    feel free to try.

    you can pick any address in the 11.*.*.* address pool to attempt this on.

  3. Re:Don't try to deter piracy on Ask Slashdot: What Is a Reasonable Way To Deter Piracy? · · Score: 1

    Then you will hate Network wide adblockers that I installed at work. If you are on the work network NO adverts get through... Gotta love privoxy coupled with a transparent proxy.

  4. Re:Sigh on Ask Slashdot: What Is a Reasonable Way To Deter Piracy? · · Score: 1

    Ask all the shareware developers that made money without it. It's been normal to NOT DRM your software for longer than you have been alive. Worlds best audio program, http://www.reaper.fm/ Reaper, is released 100% functional trial version and the paid version removes the Nag screen.

    get off your lazy butt and research what works.

  5. Re:correction on Botnet Uses Default Passwords To Conduct "Internet Census 2012" · · Score: 5, Interesting

    After 1 attempt for ROOT I blackhole the ip address for 90 days Nobody should ever try to log in as root, so any login attempt should black hole that IP forever. 3 minutes of script writing is all it takes to do that.

  6. And remember kids. on FAA Grants Arlington Texas Police Department Permission To Fly UAVs · · Score: 1

    Hunting rifles will easily take these down, you have a 3 UAV limit per day.... Dont be a hog, let others have fun shooting them as well. The state will get more of them each month.

  7. Re:Finally on Possible Chemical Weapons Use In Syria · · Score: 1

    If you want Oil less than $2.00 a gallon, you need to send the marines in to secure the World headquarters of each oil company and take the executives to Gitmo for interrogation.

  8. Re:Yes on Are Lenovo's ThinkPads Getting Worse? · · Score: 1

    Actually no they are not. NewEgg sells them as well as buying direct from Any Panasonic Dealer.

  9. So why are they not.... on Apple Releases Patch For Evasi0n Jailbreak (After It's Used 18 Million Times) · · Score: 1

    Cracking the Apple TV 3? I can not believe that that platform is completely secured from hackers.

    I'd be out the door before you finished your sentence... Good luck teaching the kid my "secrets" yourself.

    Smart people pay T&M. silly people demand what you ask for and pay a lot more for the end result compared to T&M.

    Amen Brother! The other problem is that most of them are servants, just not to the general public....

  14. Re:Yes on Are Lenovo's ThinkPads Getting Worse? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    "it meant you were buying a laptop built to survive Armageddon (well, at least one that's neither wet nor sandy) "

    Those of US that wanted to survive the Outdoors bought a Toughbook. I can use mine in heavy rain, while it is snowing on it, or at the beach laying in the sand, or even buried in it.

    My favorite feature is being able to beat someone senseless with it and not worry about damage.

  15. Re:Selling points on Are Lenovo's ThinkPads Getting Worse? · · Score: 1

    So simply blow out the Useless Touch based OS that comes on it by default and install a REAL Operating system like Linux or Windows 7.

  16. Re:all of Estonia, huh? on Where Can You Find an Electric Vehicle Charging Network? Estonia · · Score: 1

    Actually it's easy to upgrade your infrastructure when the leaders are interested in LEADING instead of lining their own pockets. Like US government officials.

  17. Re:will not stop the publishers from making DMCA r on Supreme Court Upholds First Sale Doctrine · · Score: 1

    No problem. I'll gladly crack the DRM and then share it with everyone. If the publishers want to be scumbags and time limit or not allow me to re-sell my ebooks when I am done with them, then I'll share them with everyone.

  18. Re:It's a good documentary on The Pirate Bay's Oldest Torrent Is Revolution OS · · Score: 3, Funny

    You wont want to, they smell bad and have no imagination at all. They tend to repeat the same thing over and over like a broken furby.

    And Oddly, you must have never seen the movie because Linus says exactly that IN THE MOVIE....

  20. Re:Lighting Choices Are Not Extraordinary on Walgreens To Build First Self-Powered Retail Store · · Score: 2

    "This is why Walmart stores built in the past two decades have skylights."

    And lowest bidder programmed light harvesting systems that dont have enough dwell time so they spend more money on partly cloudy days as the fluorescent lights turn on and off every 60-120 seconds. They have systems that are cool, but the companies they hire to install them dont have a competent programmer to set them up right.

  21. Re:Geothermal heating? on Walgreens To Build First Self-Powered Retail Store · · Score: 1

    Yes... they are trying to overhype the fact that they are going to start using HVAC systems from the 70's.... The decades old Heat Pump.

  22. They are late to the party.... on Raspberry Pi As Hardware Backdoor · · Score: 0

    we were doing this with the precursor to the Pi the "sheevaplug" over 4 years ago... doing it with a pi is not innovative or new in any way.

  23. Re:Mildly annoying on Apple Faces Lawsuit For Retina MacBook Pro 'Ghosting' Issue · · Score: -1, Troll

    I have far more control over my macbook than you do with your $199 wing wang wong china special. Good luck getting some of those nasty chipsets working with linux in the cheap-o laptops out there.

  24. Windfarm sicknes.... Silly.... on Windfarm Sickness Spreads By Word of Mouth · · Score: 3, Funny

    Everyone knows that the bad thing that windfarms cause is the slowing of the earths rotation.

    yes I actually heard that from the mouth of one of the local nutjobs that are against the installation of a windfarm offshore.

  25. Meh... on Video Inpainting Software Deletes People From HD Video Footage · · Score: 1

    I have seen this done in After Effects 5 years ago. In fact I remember a script/template that was floating around that tried to automate it quite well.
