  1. Re:The new PC vs MAC on Google Revs Android, FCC Approves First Phone · · Score: 0

    The openmoko is a festering pile. The designers can't pick between Qt, GTK and FSO . . . the GTK interface is the most sluggish turd Ive ever encountered. The Qt interface, well, its pretty, and it runs fast, but they not SPACEBAR on the qwerty keyboard is about the most retarded thing that has ever been done.

    To make a longwinded sentence short. OpenMoko is an epic fail.

  12. Re:Not a thief on Confessions of a Wi-Fi Thief · · Score: 1

    There are a lot of interesting topics raised from this article...

    First, with how many cities are offering free wifi how is the layman to know the difference between a inproperly secured router and a free public service.

    Second most operating systems will default to conncecting to an open network if its available, again the layman doesn't know the difference.

    My mom is the type of person that 'has the internet installed on her computer' (the whole internet:)).. She doesn't understand the concept of networks and routers...

    I know that ignorance doesn't excuse you from law but we are getting to a apoint that the avwerage person needs a Net+ certification just to use the internet legally

  13. My serious nontrolling question on Confessions of a Wi-Fi Thief · · Score: 1

    I'm one of those guys that comes across like a million crappy old wifi routers and I usually installing ddrwt or openwrt on them to play around.

    I live in a huge apartment complex with a crap load of completely open networks. I've got in the habbit of setting up wireless repeaters for the open networks around me. I figure hey I'm near the pool whoever left this open may appreciate that they can get their network by the pool now, sweet.

    So first I'm curious what's the legallity in that... I'm not using "the internet" I'm just extending the range of something openly provided.

    Second since it IS my router if I decided to peak at nonssl traffic going across my bridge what's the legal harm in that... I'm not cracking a secure protocol just looking at what's freely available over http.

    HYPOTHETICALLY of course.

  18. I can't walk away from this article. on Full Body Scanners Installed In 10 US Airports · · Score: 1

    Im sorry, I know this is like the third time Ive posted on this article, but it makes me so fucking mad. What I dont get, more than anything is why the god damn TSA exists. Hey, WE fucked up and let 9/11 happen.

    OMG. Did he just say that? How un-american, what a terrorist.

    Fact is people want to kill people. Fact is, the people that are supposed to protect our country, well, some of them fucked up. Whether it was Air Force, Air Traffic Control, the Army, whoever. Someone fucked up, didn't do their job right and let a bunch of innocent people get hurt.

    How do we address the situation? Better defense? Maybe, but fuck, why dont we go ahead and harrass the shit out of everyone that flies, some hundreds of thousands of people a day, maybe more, in the event that one of them is a terrorist.

    I have an uncle, replaced hip. Carries a medical card stating his hip is metallic. Got back room strip searched when the TSA couldn't find what was making the metal detector go off, despite him showing his card. I have a metal ACL brace, I wore it THROUGH FUCKING JFK. Metal detector goes off, hand wanded. Hand wand goes OFF.

    TSA: Whats in your pants sir?
    Me: ACL brace *I knock on the brace for effect*
    TSA: Go ahead your clear.


    IM FUCKING CLEARED?! He let me just cruise onto a plane departing New York City with a HUGE metal object in my pants he didn't inspect. Our harassment and security is up to the scrutiny and discrepancy of HUMAN BEINGS, some of which are total fuck ups and completely illogical.

    Someone else said it and I agree. 9/11 happened, will there be more terrorist attacks? Who knows, probably. Will it be with another fucking plane? Probably not and if so, hey how about this. AirForce, Army, do your fucking jobs and keep us safe. And by do your jobs. I mean, yeah, if you have to, shoot down the fucking plane. Its fucked up to say that I know, but, if your are going to save the lifes of a few thousand people for the lives of a hundred or so, its worth it. Purely on numbers of course, which is what we all are.

    The TSA is NOT going to keep America safe? Why? Because people can be insane, its their right, well not their RIGHT, but you understand. People are bat-shit crazy. Could someone today, right now, hi jack a plane or at least scare the shit out of everyone in the US.

    They could, and they could do it by going on the plane with nothing but a tshirt and jeans, fuck it board shorts and flip flops.

    Flight Attendant: Excuse me sir would you like a beverage?
    Psycho Fucking Passenger: Yes, ma'am I'd enjoy a Coca-Cola classic, could I have a full can?
    FA: Sure. *Gives can*
    PFP: Drinks soda, goes to bathroom. *In bathroom rips aluminum can up to create a MORE FUCKING POTENT WEAPON THAN A FUCKING BOX CUTTER.*


    Psycho fucking passenger leaves the restroom, grabs the first person hes sees, probably the back of the plane flight attendant, puts make shift knife to throat. Threatens to kill, looks for a child, swaps attendant for child. NO ONE IN THEIR RIGHT FUCKING MIND WANTS TO SEE A KID DIE, THATS WHY A CRAZY ASS PERSON COULD USE IT TO GET INTO THE COCK PIT.

    PFP: Kid dies, or open up the cabin.
    Captain: No way
    PFP: *Puts a one inch incision on the kid to show he means business*
    Everyone on plane: *FUCKING LOSES IT*
    Captain: *opens door* (OK maybe not, but at this point everyone in the US is completely fucking going nuts because it got this far, and TSA "did their jobs" => Imagine the chaos we'll have to deal with the next time we go to the airport)

    Just suppose that psycho got into the cockpit. Its the end of january, over a football city, CRASH => the fucking super bowl. Two major major money making franchises destroyed. But you know whats worse than losing all that money or a couple of companies almost collapsing financially because of the WTC? Losing the 30000 attendees of the super bowl. Why? Because they are people, the same people we are treating like shit every time they want to fly somewhere.

    We are focusing on the wrong people and the wrong place for securing our country.
