  4. Re:What do you mean "we"? on The Top Ten Off Switches · · Score: 1

    Yes, and it's a pain in the ass to switch my tesla coil off by licking the electrodes till it overheats! I really want one of those switching plug ins!

  5. Re:Dead Man Switch on The Top Ten Off Switches · · Score: 1

    I worked for a WSU research farm one year, and we found that our generously donated farm material's switch NEVER worked right. It allways accidently tripped from vibration alone, the thing would screech to a halt w/ no one near it. Then you could bang on the button w/ a hamer, and it wouldn't trip...

    Wait a minute, maybe banging on it w/ a hammer wasn't such a good idea...

  6. Re:Binary. on The Top Ten Off Switches · · Score: 1

    "If the big horking switch's "|" is pressed, (se-sawing the "0" up), I'd EXPECT that to turn it on, and vice versa. However, the switch shroud must have been put on backward, because I have to press "0" to turn it on and "|" to turn it off."

    Did I read that wrong, or are YOU the retard?

  7. I can do better! on Single Nanotube Becomes World's Smallest Radio · · Score: 1

    I do that all the time, I have never been questioned. Except there was this one time...

            Once this hot chick who wanted my # at the line after I gave her a ton of fake information she got 253 867- 5309
    A play off of and not very original either. Sadly the # was real, and some guy in the little town of Graham, WA. had yet another "prank" call.

  11. Dohh on ASUS Motherboard Ships With Embedded Linux · · Score: 1

  15. Re:fun yes; groundbreaking no on BioShock Review · · Score: 1

    No way Hexen ROCKED. When I was a mere youngen, My brother and I convinced our mom that the computer needed "HEXEN Drivers" to run faster. We told her it was a common tweak to boost colors on the monitor, and make the video work better. 8')

    Oh, the video worked after that!

  16. Re:Why? on 200,000 Elliptical Galaxies Point the Same Way · · Score: 1

    If it was a microsoft product you'd have to move the decimal one place to the left, and it would still be too early of an alpha to play around with...

    Hey! I am one of the whores from redmond. And M$ clients pay me well you insensitive CLOD! As for pretending to be your freind, that's what you all pay me to do!

  18. What the Phudge? on UK Police Cracking Down on Broadband Theft · · Score: 1

    I live in the USA, leave just a privacy lock on the door to my house (defeatable by a credit card (or library card for that matter...) I Have an amp and subwoofer in plainview in my car parked in the driveway. I live in a neighborhood where the avg house price is 40K below the mean for the area.

    I have never had anything stollen. I did have some kids smoke in my house when I first moved in about 8 years ago while I was gone once, but they didn't take anything of value. (they were caught by a neighbor too!)

    Hell, I left my wifes car unattended overnight unlocked with cd's in the passenger seat.

    Not everyone in USA is a criminal. Most people are not. Some are. Same as anywhere. The problem is that someplaces are not safe. New York City, LA, etc. are examples of HUGE cities. But crime happens in small towns & countries too. Theres just less because there is less people. Publick policies and education may make a differance, but it will allways be based on population.

  19. Fool hardy on Going to Yosemite? Get Your Passport Ready! · · Score: 1

    Not to be a jerk, but...

    If you make more than 300K/yr, your not going to be paying that much in taxes, because you are probably smart, know how to read, claim exemptions, and sock your $$ away for retirement in tax shelters like realestate, 401k's, and IRA's and gambling losses.

    I don't know many people who pay taxes on a flat rate of their gross income. There are many ways to make 300k / year look like 100,000.

    I don't even gross xx, but my taxable income is 1/2.

  20. Re:Line Printer won't scale on DSS/HIPPA/SOX Unalterable Audit Logs? · · Score: 1

    Not if you don't read every law that gets drafted. I don't know one voting american who has the time to do that asside from his/her non-political real world job.

  21. Re:Question... What's to stop on DSS/HIPPA/SOX Unalterable Audit Logs? · · Score: 1

    Wish I had mod points to throw at you +1 insightful. As long as you showed due dillegence in researching your vendor, you would get sued, then sue them to cover damages if they did'nt protect you. It's all a can of worms though, Data that is intended to be viewed (or created...) is possible to view. It's like your house. There is a privacy lock, and a deadbolt. The deadbolt is to keep people from kicking your door in, but it does nothing to stop them from walking through your glass door in the back of the house. The privacy lock is just to keep the neighborhood kids from coming in while your sleeping w/ the girl next door.

  22. Re:Syslog on DSS/HIPPA/SOX Unalterable Audit Logs? · · Score: 1

    How in the hell do you get a comprimised syslog?

    Just curious, not that I know anything about it, but it seems that that machine could only be compromised by physical access.

  23. Re:Syslog on DSS/HIPPA/SOX Unalterable Audit Logs? · · Score: 1

    True, they are getting cheaper too. Infact you can set up one hell of a home piracy operation for 40K, and the only thing tipping people off would be that the Staples van keeps coming to your house and droping off spindles which when empty stack out of your recycling bin.

    Not that I'd know for sure or anything....

  24. Re:Write them to a DVD jukebox on DSS/HIPPA/SOX Unalterable Audit Logs? · · Score: 1

    I honestly was thinking the same thing. Why "stream" your logs when you can store and forward once they get to a resonable size?

  25. HIPAA and you on DSS/HIPPA/SOX Unalterable Audit Logs? · · Score: 1

    Yes but Hipaa is pretty generic. Most of the Hippa regs are Already state requirements for many states (though not nearly all...)
