  1. Re:Sounds like a TPM chilp could help you on Protecting a Laptop From Sophisticated Attacks · · Score: 1

    I have no problem not owning that key, if nobody else owns it too. Yes it could be abused, mas all technology could be abused for evil.

    ... as the root keys never leave the chip. But hey, trusted computing is eevil right?

  3. Re:Fat chance, but... on Dead Space 2 Announced · · Score: 1

    This game is full of bad game "design decisions" (at least in the PC version):

    - Why the hell you could not jump? Great graphics, great atmosphere, but stuck in the floor?
    - The input is lagging. I've tried to disable vsync, etc, but i still got a considerable amount of lag on my mouse.
    - YOU CANNOT CHANGE DEFAULT KEYS. This really killed the game for me, as i don't really use any of the AWSD ones for movement. This is the first game in like 15+ years where i could not change the default keyboard controls.

    How do you replace a TPM with a dummy one? Do you realize that not even with physical access you can extract the TPM keys stored inside a tamper evident/resistant chip that is used to sign the bootloader/etc ...? TL

  5. Re:Dupe, on Is the Gaming PC Dead? · · Score: 1

    I ended Crysis 1 & 2 with a Geforce 9400 with decent gameplay and graphics on Vista. That video card costs around ~60â.

  6. Re:Ghost in the Shell on Scientists Achieve Mental Body-Swapping · · Score: 1

    I remember when i first saw GiTS (first movie). That silent 10m interlude with city scenes after the big bird plane starts to land... I still recall that scene as one of the TOP moments of the history of cinema/anime for me (really). The story is simple but the atmosphere/sound/feeling in top. TL

  7. Re:Floodbanks? on As Seas Rise, Maldives Seek To Buy a New Homeland · · Score: 1

    Maybe they could buy desert portions from Australia and move them to the atols to compensate the land eroded by the sea...?

  8. Re:No Holiday in the US for us. on Examining the Search and Seizure of Electronics at Airports · · Score: 1

    This is getting really scary. I would show the guards the middle finger before giving away any of my private info, and demanded to talk immediately to his superior to protest. Inspecting my laptop without a judge order is a complete offense to privacy in any free country. TL
