    (I use LastPass to make sure I don't need to remember passwords - and before someone answers that I've just given my passwords to a service, no, I haven't. Study their architecture)

    You're running their code in your browser, probably with automatic updates enabled (the code of which you never review). They may not have your passwords now, but they can have them whenever they wish.

    Are you seriously suggesting forcing a child to take a dump?

    ... Unbelieveable.

    Considering you got modded "Informative" and the subject... well, this is saying something about the US.

  3. Re:Oldest profession? on Chimpanzees Exchange Meat For Sex · · Score: 2, Interesting

    actually there was an article last year about some researchers who taught chimps to use money (plastic "task reward" tokens exchangeable for food). they promptly invented prostitution.

    I looked for some reference for this... here it is, on page #2.

  4. Re:Who needs to avoid these countries? on The Coming Censorship Wars · · Score: 1

    Considering the countries actively censoring or monitoring I'm aware of are: [...] Poland, [...]

    Would you mind providing a source for this statement?

  5. Re:Do you remember CSS? on IPv6 Adoption Up 300 Percent Over 2 Years · · Score: 1

    True, but the difference here is that there's no need to wait for the Slash bunch to implement it. Their hosting provider can set it up for them, right down to the machines that it's running on. [...]

    The hosting provider will not be able to add AAAA DNS records nor configure the Apache vhosts. It has to be the Slashdot team.

  6. IPv6 address for slashdot.org on IPv6 Adoption Up 300 Percent Over 2 Years · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Any chance Slashdot could get IPv6 connectivity?

    Progress in this direction is "stuff that matters", after all...

    An escalator can never break! It can only become stairs!

    For some values of "break". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King's_Cross_fire#Cause

    On the other hand, maybe this was just an ex-escalator...

  8. Re:Red Sea tag suggestion: on Birth of a New African Ocean · · Score: 1

    ""U.S. Religious Landscape Survey" that was issued in June, 21% of self-proclaimed atheists believe in either a personal God or an impersonal force. Ten percent of atheists pray at least weekly and 12% believe in heaven."

    This alone shows that the study is screwed up. From my dictionary "Atheist - One who disbelieves or denies the existence of God or gods." Yet the study says 21% of atheists believe in God. That study is total bullshit.

    You did not understand.

    It says "self-proclaimed". Some people answer "yes" when asked if they're atheists, yet they also answer "yes" when asked if they believe in some higher force.

    People's understanding of the word "atheist" is where the flaw is; the study just exposes that.

  9. Re:Should lead to possibly great advertisements on How Kernel Hackers Boosted the Speed of Desktop Linux · · Score: 1

    c'mon, ext3 as a module? really?

    Really. What's the point of having it in the kernel, when I'm not using it (XFS only)?
