  1. Re:Internet is very dangerous place on Google Search Flagging Everything As Potentially Harmful · · Score: 1

    I always knew that all those sites could ham my computer. Finally Google proves my fears.

    I guess that makes you some kind of eggspert.

  2. Re:Not Useless on Google Search Flagging Everything As Potentially Harmful · · Score: 5, Funny

    There are other search engines.

    Why do you hate America ?

    Beware of geeks bare in gifs

    Classic. I'm going to use that one at every available opportunity.

    Oh, and "kleptocratic oligarchy" might come in useful, too.

  4. Re:Sounds Good. on Google Unofficially Announces GDrive By Leaked Code · · Score: 1

    TrueCrypt always comes to mind, perhaps with the hidden volume feature.

    I think using TrueCrypt would be useful but that it'd be a mistake to use the hidden volume. If you have older versions of the encrypted volume (and Google certainly would !), you could tell which parts of the volume had been altered since the last update. If you see some stuff at 'the bottom' of the volume, you can tell that you've changed something in the primary volume. However, if there are changes to 'the top' of your volume, and no changes in-between, then that'd be a pretty strong indicator that you were using a hidden volume. Plausible deniability goes out the window at that point.

    Of course, no-one would be able to read the contents of either volume without the password, but there are various means of obtaining that.

  7. Re:Choice on Cox Communications and "Congestion Management" · · Score: 1

    Some companies / markets give you the choice of a "self install"

    I was offered the chance to self-install with Cox.

    No, I remember now...they said I could go and f*** myself in the ass.

  8. I was the only one... on Data Privacy Day Wrap-Up · · Score: 1

    ...who took part in it at my place of work.

    I put on an eyepatch and bandana, stuck a stuffed parrot on my shoulder and hopped around saying "Aaaaarrrrr" a lot. I hope more people will join in next year, cos I felt a bit conspicuous.

  9. Re:Ignore it if you don't want to watch it. on Please No, Not a Blade Runner Sequel · · Score: 1

    Look at "The Day The Earth Stood Still" I am a fan of the original and think the new one sucked more than anyone will admit.

    Oh, I'll admit that until the cows come home. Jeeeeeeeez, it was bad. BAD. Badbadbadbadbadbadbad.

    I can go on, "Time Machine," "War of the Worlds," etc.

    I saw WotW for the first time on t'telly the other night and I thought it was great; Certainly good enough to exist along with the original. The camera investigating the cellar bit was well creepy.

    Can you show me some victims who were injured?

    Well, there's 5,000 people in Redmond who might be finding it harder to keep up their mortgage repayments.

  12. Re:Spotify does this too. on Pandora Trying Out Invasive Commercial Breaks · · Score: 1

    Spotify is the dog's bollox, even in its free version. I've been sending out invites to all my friends and family. Unfortunately, the licensing conditions means it won't work in the States. I don't find the occasional ad too annoying given that every track I request is one that I WANT to hear and not some radio station's concept of what I should be listening to.

    Oh, and I'm happy to pay the BBC license fee for ad-free OTA broadcasting.

    bk is a far, FAR better VCS than anything else in the proprietary software world.

    Visual Source Safe is surely the better option if you're developing using Visual Studio.

  22. Re:That's odd... on Hippies Say WiFi Network Is Harming Their Chakras · · Score: 1

    I don't need God to tell me not to kill somone or steal from someone and quite frankly I think it's sad that you do.

    It's also sad that nowhere in the Bible is the act of slavery actively condemned. We are told to treat slaves well in some cases, but nowhere is the point made that no-one should ever make another person their slave. That particular piece of moral guidance has no root in the Holy Bible or the teachings of Jesus Christ.

  23. Wibbly-wobbly, timey-wimey...stuff. on Spiraling Magnetic Signal Shows Up In the Cosmic Background · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    A man conceived a moments answers to the dream, Staying the flowers daily, sensing all the themes. As a foundation left to create the spiral aim, A movement regained and regarded both the same, All complete in the sight of seeds of life with you. Changed only for a sight of sound, the space agreed. Between the picture of time behind the face of need, Coming quickly to terms of all expression laid, Emotion revealed as the ocean maid, All complete in the sight of seeds of life with you.

  24. Re:Digital? on Attempt To "Digitalize" Beatles Goes Sour · · Score: 1

    The mastering and remixing on the 'Love' album is jaw-droppingly good. There are still people out there who care about such things and treat them with respect.
