    Because they actually know how certs work and you clearly don't. The cert just guaranteed that the site the user is trying to connect to is in fact the site they are connecting to, and they are free. There is no conspiracy, just security.

    That's correct. A lack of understanding is at the root of your confusion.

    The last 100 years can't be compared to the previous 1000 years. Whatever cycles there were are not repeating themselves. You have to be under 30 Not to realize this. Maybe it will be horrible and maybe it will be great, but the future will be nothing like the past. The present isn't even anything like the past.

    Hey dumbfuck. Have you ever heard the expression "The wheels of justice turn slowly, but they do turn"? You think nothing is happening because you aren't paying attention, and when you are your attention is still on the same idiots that created this mess that will take years to sort out.

    You missed the other advantage, even though you stated it. It can't be served up by a (potentially modifed) "cache". It's about integrity as well as privacy.

    Right. If you have nothing to hide then why don't you want the police watching you!? It's sad that people who can't pass a sixth grade civics class are allowed to graduate from high school.

    And there is your problem. The entire problem with Slashdot is a direct result of the abuse of the AC system.

  9. It is you. It has been more "cesspool-y" for much longer than that. You are evidently just noticing.

  10. Re: Hate speech does not exist on Facebook's Uneven Enforcement of Hate Speech Rules Allows Vile Posts To Stay Up (propublica.org) · · Score: 0

    Bullshit. All people who say hate speech doesn't exist should be rounded up and put to death in a gas chamber.

  11. Killfiles are not a panacea. The person in question can still reply to posts and everyone else sees it. This leaves open a situation where people who don't know either party read the posts and think that the person in the killfiles made a point to which you have no counter-argument, etc.

  12. It will certainly be refreshing to finally see Trump strung up where he belongs.

  13. Bullshit. Cops regularly order people to do things they have no right to insist upon, and regularly lie to the public, as they believe that since the Supreme Court said they can lie to a suspect that it is their job to lie to everyone all the time to make their job easier. All you are doing is blaming the victim. It is the cop at fault here, and there is *zero* fault on the part of the deceased.

    Well if this guy, who was an uninvolved 3rd party, was juggling, then they would have just shot him because they "suspected he was tossing hand grenades".

  16. Re: Reporting on this is terrible on Call of Duty Gaming Community Points To 'Swatting' In Wichita Police Shooting (dailydot.com) · · Score: 1

    That is not correct. The police had no reason to believe there was in fact a hostage situation as that has not been verified. The first step is to have a negotiator reach out to the hostage taker, at which point they would have realized quite quickly they were misinformed. If their "negotiator" was a firearm they couldn't be more at fault. Furthermore, if it was a hostage situation then a single person coming directly to the front door would almost certainly be one of the hostages.

    No, but we on Slashdot need to rise up against ignorant morons who post as AC trying to create a shitshow. IOW, go fuck yourself AC troll. Nobody is going to feed you.

    Where the *hell* did you get that idea? Exit numbers are sequence numbers that don't indicate any distances.

    You are kidding right? There have been so many ways to compromise Windows and take over the machine it spawned an entire anti-virus industry. True it would be impossible to prove any of the holes were intentional, but saying "You can't prove any of them were intentional so it never happened" is as absurd as your implication that there is no proof Microsoft can't be trusted.

    Because the believe whatever they are told, and don't understand how the law works. They have no concept of the idea that not all laws are legal, or why we have a judiciary branch.

    If the menu lists costs in bottlecaps then you are correct, but if it lists costs in US dollars they must accept dollars, i.e. cash. I'm sorry if this is hard for you to understand.

    Why? There is proof that that God doesn't exist, so being an atheist is not incongruent with this approach. There may be some other force, but God as described in the Bible clearly does not exist.
