  1. Security concerns on Real Snail Mail · · Score: 1

    Are there any encryption options and can someone insert an extra tagging/receiving node in the path that could perform a MITM attack?

  2. Re:Inevitably.. on Mormon Church Goes After WikiLeaks · · Score: 1

    My guess is there is some stuff about how to deal certain situations that isn't exactly politically correct. The Mormons have had a lot of issues with the homosexual crowd and I bet there is some potentially offensive "solutions".

  3. Re:hmm... when I read "Educational Gaming" on Adults Too Quick to Dismiss Educational Gaming? · · Score: 1

    Yes, yes, definitely. Big fan of a company called Koei. They make the Dynasty Warriors and Romance of the Three Kingdoms series. Based on true historical events. They also have war simulation games of the American Revolutionary War, and feudal Japan eras. Great educational games.

  4. Number crunchers and Oregon Trail on Adults Too Quick to Dismiss Educational Gaming? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Great game for the Apple IIe that we had in my elementary school was Number Crunchers. Great for memorizing your multiplication tables. You'd run around on a grid and eat all the numbers that were multiples of 4 or something while there were some bad things chasing you. And what didn't I learn from Oregon Trail! I would have no idea chimney rock even existed without that game! And I learned moderation. After shooting one buffalo when hunting, no need to shoot anything else because you couldn't haul all that meat away with you. So why waste the bullets?

  5. Re:x fonts/bg I use on What Font Color Is Best For Eyes? · · Score: 1

    black on wheat
    I'm a big fan of turkey on wheat.
  6. Re:I really hope she wins this on Lawsuit Against RIAA Tries To Stop Them All · · Score: 1

    I've never met anyone who downloaded a song, liked it, and then didn't go ahead and download the whole thing for free. The only incentive to purchase it legally is the pretty plastic case, disc, and booklet, which to a lot of people isn't worth the $6.00 they would have to pay, at least. But I am from Utah, people here religious zealots and complete cheapskates.

    Yeah, I'm gonna ask you to cite your source. Just a link to one or two of those studies. Not that I don't want to believe you but the people I know don't act that way.
