Spot-on, Force-tls actually prevents DNS spoffing attacks and nothing more. Say you try to visit http://www.bankofamerica.com/ from starbucks, someone might spoof the dns and redirect you to their own page rather than https://www.bankofamerica.com/ . Force-tls prevents this by not requesting for the http page and directly requesting for the secure page (it knows for what pages it has to request using https, by remembering the last time you visited the site (to be more specific, whether the site had sent a X-Force-TLS when you had visited them before)).
Mmm neat, but force-tls is not helpful for wikipedia (and other similar sites), that need mapping from en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google to secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Google
Substantial? They own less than 2% stake and the 240 million deal was for a 2% stake and an exclusive deal to run banner ads on facebook till 2011 (a pretty good deal for 240 million).
Er, wouldnt you do what you think is right, irrespective of what others think about it? If thats the definition of a religious extremist, I would be an extremist too.
Yeah, all that means is that you can attack (with a gun or with bare hands) as a means of self-defense. Shooting someone just because they stepped foot in your property, is well, moronic.
To quote from the wiki...
The occupant(s) of the home must reasonably believe that the intruder intends to inflict serious bodily harm or death upon an occupant of the home
Unless someone working for you enables the port and configures it to the VLAN, without actually counting it as an additional server.
The point GP was making is that if you are the only person to authorize port enablement and VLAN configuration, your network will be completely under your control. It is when you start authorising other people to start doing this stuff (which will have to happen in a large org (and no a one man IT is not an option)), things dont stay under your control.
Can't pick up the signal? Well, if you're on DSL or cable, nobody can use the excuse "you're in a dead spot, too bad."
Well not exactly, but the excuse would be that, "Sorry, we dont have a cable running to/through your place and we dont plan on spending money to lay new cable, better luck next time"
Mmmm, I wouldnt call it internal politics. Its rather to encourage local development of military hardware. In this case, it was the first attempt at an indigenous (completely indian made) tank. Due to improper planning, the project was delayed by years and they even ended up purchasing some of the components from other countries (Israel mainly). Though not a success, I would consider it a good start, and would expect future indian made tanks to be build cheaper and better
There are many other such DRDO projects, like Tejas (indigenously build light weight combat aircraft) which would have been much cheaper to acquire from Russia or US.
There are many instances of internal politics in DRDO, but this is definitely not one of them.
Run Synaptic (its available in Administrator menu) -> Select java plugin -> Click apply and voila, you have java installed in firefox. This would have worked in almost any version of ubuntu I could think of, in the past 6 years.
Ahh my insomnia is taking its toll. I cannot believe I submitted the above comment. Here is a syntax checked version of above comment.
If I may say so, jitterbug plans are a complete rip off, you will be much better off with a pay as you go t-mobile prepaid plan. $100 buys 1000 minutes, which is valid for 1 year. You can top-up when you want to and be billed exactly for the minutes you have used.

Mmm I have not pasted the link properly... EFF's plugin can map automatically from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google to https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Google It is not possible with force-tls

Exactly, this is what EFF's Firefox Addon does
Its rather, here is a lock pick. Now if you use it break into someplace, without authorization, thats your business.
How about this for a start - http://science.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=1845896&cid=34067684
By that, do you imply that you do guarantee his safety, if he did not try it on his own head?
You say as if there are no direct planes from China to US.
Would you please think of the differently-abled?
What passwords were recorded?
Slashdot?
Actually they should, when alaska is, canada should too.
Not with a browser that supports SSL. Someone should compile him an open source browser that has encryption removed.
Substantial? They own less than 2% stake and the 240 million deal was for a 2% stake and an exclusive deal to run banner ads on facebook till 2011 (a pretty good deal for 240 million).
It actually is easy. They have already implemented instant posting for prepaid phones. It should be trivial to extend this to postpaid plans.
Do you think that someone would actually see a post on Slashdot and assume that what they're reading is legal advice from an attorney?
Never underestimate the stupidy of the masses (even masses that visit slashdot)

In my experience, I have never seen a military or defence contractor (from any nation) run test that did end up with "Hooray for our side. We won."
See https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Arjun_MBT#Trials_and_exercise The army openly released test results that claimed that DRDO's Arjun did not meet their requirements. Its only in 2010, that the Indian Army results showed that Arjun performed better than Russian tanks.
