    If you did your sister in 7th grade, we will know about it.

    If there are any lawyers present can you tell me if there is a statute of limitations on this? Unfortunately, I don't live in one of those states with exemptions for this.

    I certainly hope that one of those is a codename for the S-100 Bus. What would my life as a teenager have been like if it wasn't for S-100.

  7. Re:Now What? on Intel Says Farewell To PCI Bus · · Score: 1

    Does that mean that they wont support AGP anymore? What should I do with what was once the world's fastest TNT2-M64. For a while my card was the fastest of its pedigree on this planet. I am planning on auctioning this piece of computing history on eBay but I thought my yech geek friends on /. deserve a chance at this great coffee table talking point. (IANAP but I left the Freudian in there as I am sure it must mean something profound)

  8. Re:Customer Service on Verizon Makes Offering Service Blocks a Fireable Offense · · Score: 1

    When I was in retail (thankfully many years of therapy ago) the term for a dissatisfied customer that told everyone about their bad experiences was 'retail terrorist'. That explains the government bail outs of companies who suck.

    You need to have faith that they are right and live by their code because if they are right your death means you are up the creek without a paddle

    Thank God I live in a pot-sane state. If I was to walk up to a cop on duty here and ask him for directions whilst blowing a joint the worst he could do is fine me $20 and take my dooby. In the US I would probably get shot.

    So, the U.S. wasn't the wealthiest country in the world in the second half of the 20th century?

    If a US treasury/bond has the sum of one million dollars written on it can you tell me what it is really actually worth?

    I haven't used psad for a long time but if i recall correctly it had an option to execute a program/script of your choice if a portscan reached a specific threshold.

    You just had to bring up Harry Potter didn't you. I am only just getting over my major major crush on Bellatrix Lestrange (IMHO one of the hottest chicks(with personality to match) to ever feature on the silver screen)

  17. Re:Following the trail back to their own computer on Turning Attackers' Tools Against Them · · Score: 1

    I knew a sysadmin many years ago who wasn't shy about blowing his own trumpet about his 1337 security skillz. His root password was 'aardvark'. Thought you might need a laugh. He had a couple of those MCSE type qualifications and a degree in computer science.

    They don't need to sell the gadgets at all. Once they have made a few proof of concepts, greased the right palms, and lodged a few vaguely worded but broad scope patents the municipality is their oyster

  21. Re:Ultimately, it's not only about saving money on Why Intel Wants To Network Your Clothes Dryer · · Score: 1

    Correct, its about monitoring the citizens even further. Expect gen 2 to report back to the government to see if you are washing too often.

    I am pretty sure that rolling brownouts are planned. Or are you being a word-smith and that is what you meant? It's sometimes so hard to understand what a person really means in text.

  23. Re:Good lord man, take responsibility for yourself on Why Intel Wants To Network Your Clothes Dryer · · Score: 1

    So does that mean they will have a special clothes dryer that doesn't do any monitoring when you are using solar power? I think you are the one that needs to wake up.. Got a rain water tank? get ready for the 'precipitation tax' (google it). Plans are already in place to tax the users of alternative energy so as to reimburse kind and caring companies that have gone to all the expense of providing a service to your neighbourhood that you with your anti-green hate mongering intransigence are refusing to use.
