  1. Re:Real reason on Seattle Police Raid Tor-Using Privacy Activists (thestranger.com) · · Score: 1

    I would run it from a non x86/64 architecture. Good luck with their USB on PA-RISC or SPARC.

  2. This might explain why I was getting all kinds of malware warnings while browsing eBay last night. Flash is so bad that Chrome started not playing it by default.

  3. Re:They did wear me down on Torvalds Hasn't Given Up On Linux Desktop Domination, Will 'Wear Them Down' (cio.com) · · Score: 1

    Good luck with that new Nvidia card...

  4. Transponders? on Spies In The Skies: FBI Planes Are Circling US Cities (buzzfeed.com) · · Score: 1

    Do these planes have ADS-B transponders? You can receive and plot flights yourself in real time with a $10 RTL dongle from eBay. Google the RTLSDR project.

  5. Don't worry, President Trump will have them dispatched quickly.

  6. We have this pedophile who could strike in YOUR neighborhood next! We need to decrypt his phone before he gets to your children.

  7. Re:What latency overhead? on $40 Hardware Is Enough To Hack $28,000 Police Drones From 2km Away (theregister.co.uk) · · Score: 1

    More like management wanted to save $2 per unit and went with the cheaper CPU.

    The perfect accessory for my Firefox phone! Sign me up for this overpriced underpowered slab of junk.

  10. Too many stupid people were hit by cars and ruined it, causing government to step in.

  11. Boycott on Sony Fixes Flubbed Dash Download (sony.com) · · Score: 1

    I thought we were all boycotting Sony since the rootkit fiasco and PS3 firmware feature removal?

  12. Re:when is it going to be different? on Linux 4.6 Brings NVIDIA GTX 900 Support, OrangeFS, Better Power Management (phoronix.com) · · Score: 1

    The truth is supporting projects like this are more trouble than they are worth. No matter what they release someone is going to bitch and moan that something isn't correct. AMD/Nvidia can cater to their market which is 90% gamers and 9.9% professional graphics. The other 0.1% are foaming at the mouth zealots who demand source files but would never actually read the million or so lines they are composed of. I can't blame them for putting in minimal effort. How many extra card sales will open source drivers generate? 1000, maybe 2000 at best.

  13. Your post was 1000 times more informative than their site. Thank you.

  14. I looked over the homepage for OrangeFS and still can't figure out the point.

    The ransom is the same for everyone no matter who is infected. The emails I've seen with this attachment are coming out of Iran and Pakistan.

  18. Re:Here's a solution... on Apple Worries Spy Technology Has Been Secretly Added To Computer Servers It Buys (businessinsider.com) · · Score: 5, Informative

    Guess you didn't read about the NSA program where they intercept hardware during shipping and install backdoors or othewise cause tampering.

    Changing the time twice a year, how fucking lazy are you?

    Nah Trump will repeal it when he wins.

  23. Re:Time shifting on YouTube Shows Adblock Plus Users an Error Message Instead of Ads · · Score: 1

    Just wait until ads are spliced into video stream itself. No way to block that other than some pattern recognition scheme.
