The hack done (and those you usually hear about) work by modifying a machine where you have to insert your card. Does anyone know of the machines where you just swipe your card yourself are safe from this kind of tampering?
The problem with this type of reader is that it is rather easy to forget to 'sign' out of it. Although I suppose it is easy to forget your card in the kind where you insert the card.
I have had the most troubles with "SPIM" my yahoo account. It seems like nearly every day I get at least one porn solicitation. In fact, they are getting pretty smart when it comes to porn links in IMs. I recenly had a bot that carried on a conversation with me for nearly 10 minutes before it 'got a phone call' and gave me a web link. The funny thing is that this bot wanted to cyber
Too bad you have to pay extra for the 3 Year Warranty from Western Digital. We only support this idea of 1 year warranties by paying more for the "Special Edition".
I say we stop buying hard drives all together! Just use one big ram-drive and a UPS. At lest most ram comes with a Lifetime Warranty.
This technique will NOT work. Most managers at stores would not even know what you are talking about. "Won't work on your computer? But it works on your CD player? duhh CDs are meant for cd players"
Managers are stupid...I should know, I work with many at a store that sells cds.

I think that Slashdot should send a mission to Mir to broadcast Geeks In Space from Mir. If the Russians can do it, why can't we:P Well, besides the fact that Mir isn't ours. Did anyone hear if Mircorp had to pay anything for Mir? I can't immagine that they could get posession of Mir for nothing. I'm sure that Russia is glad to see Mir not burning in earth's atmosphere quite yet, but would they really let them have it for free just to keep a little bit of pride?

I'd use this space to bash religion, but I just don't feel like it. I simply don't agree with the notion of any type of religion. I do like what religion has done for us as a species in some ways. It has brought order in the world and has set up a set of morals. I see past this and I see the real world. I see no god, I see no after life, I see no heaven, I see no hell. Life is NOW. If you don't try and enjoy what we have now, you won't ever get a chane to enjoy it ever again. I think it's interesting that a quantum physicyst won a $940,000 prize for progress in religion. It doesn't mean much to me. Religion will eventually fade into the background and people will se what is really out there. Nothing. I do, and will continue to let people worship whatever they want as long as they leave me alone and let me be atheist. Oh well. Back to my little world.

Well, what about the rest? Just because he's a billionare doesn't mean he has to donate his money. It was very kind of him to donate $100 million for this cause but should he really be expected to donate more? It's his money, he should decide what to do with it, not us.

Umm many people seem to be forgetting this one small fact...
Many teachers and other people got here degrees in a time when windows was not around. They have learned to use it and so do not want to have to change. This I have found is the general opinion of many teachers in the area.
I think a fair portion of the teachers need to relearn the fact that sometimes students no best.

I live 30 minutes away from Hopkins, Minnesota. If the charges turn out to be true i'm going to go down there and hand out disks with l0phtcrack on it. Anyone live near here and want to join me?
Of course you need to buy the PCI/ISA adapter and the PC card. I'm not sure what the purpose of the Gateway is, because I know I could just use sygate with the PCI/ISA adapter to gain internet access on any lan. If anybody would like to explain the purpose of the gateway, please go ahead and explain it for me:)

"The list price of the ORINOCO PC Card is $179; the PCI and ISA adapter are $69 each, and the RG-1000 Residential Gateway is $349." The price doesn't seem too bad at all.

I say keep the domain name if possible. The longer you have it the more likely someone is going to want it and be willing to pay bug bucks for it. I'm saying it's ok for these people to be scooping up tons of names and making a nice profit from it, but if you legitimately own it, sell it later when it's worth more.

Q's? Mr Katz, Do you write the articles (that are posted on/.) with the mindset that you want to sound radical or be deliberately inflamatory? How do you view the trolls and their opinions of your writting? Do you think that their response is warrented? What causes you to pick the topics that you do? Do you select subjects based on what is in the news or on certian types of peoples minds? Lastly, When you have an article on/. do you read and consider peoples opinions (non-trollish responses to your articles) for your future writing?

Finally! A bike that you can vandalize by setting it on fire! And you don't even need any fuel to start it! Burn baby, burn!
Will they be able to create wearable skin displays to make me invisible?
Ha, you can't see me now!!!
