  1. Re:Lack of redundancy on What Happened To the Bay Bridge? · · Score: 1

    Redundancy.

    In between D.C. and Baltimore we even have three parallel highways - I-95 and 295 and US-1. One might be closed but the other two will still be usable.

    Was the parallel highway system built for redundancy, where you have little to zero traffic on two of the three highways? I would say no. I bet you have heavy traffic on all three highways. That is not redundancy.

  2. Re:Does this mean... on Federal Judge Says E-mail Not Protected By 4th Amendment · · Score: 1

    Just wonder if you keep sending postcards? Flip the card over and you can read it plain as day. Most email is plain text. While routers read the email data packets all the time. Now if you encrypt your email or put your letter in an envelope would things change.

    In the wild lions, tigers and bears do not go after the most abundant prey. They go after the easiest prey.

  4. Re:Obligatory analogy on Microsoft Blocks Pirates From Security Essentials Software · · Score: 1

    If Ford said they would install free car alarms in every Ford, do you think that would apply to cars that had been reported stolen?

    Can I go in to the local copy place and copy me a new ford?

    So where can I get the cheat codes for life?

  6. Re:Haha, good on AVG Update Breaks iTunes · · Score: 1, Insightful

    but why does itunes need to be running in the background when not in use. I call that malware. There are three processes by default on system startup. Yes I know how to remove them and did. That why I do not use itunes.

    Those insensitive clods.

  8. Re:Fisher Plaza is a disaster response center on Seattle Data Center Outage Disrupts E-Commerce · · Score: 1

    and this is not the first time they had an power outage. There is still no backup generate either.

  9. WOW port open on Researchers Find Gaps In Iranian Filtering · · Score: 1

    Gee just setup sshd to run on the wow port. What port number or numbers are those?

  10. Re:So the government stayed out of it... good. on British Court Rules Against Blogger Anonymity · · Score: 2

    yes, it seems to be a double standard, for someone who like to quote anonymous sources then out somebody else anonymous sources.

  11. Re:Sure, move out. on Ballmer Threatens To Pull Out of the US · · Score: 1

    I was going to say something like that. I just think this is a threat and no teeth.

  12. Re:Another one bites the dust on The Myth of the Mathematics Gender Gap · · Score: 1

    Yes women need to compete on equal grounds. The question is are women competing on equal grounds? Society for the most part has been saying that women can not do as well as men in math. So I would say we are not on equal footing.
