Have you played a Zelda game? You travel from dungeon to dungeon, fighting enemies and scaling obstacles to find a key that opens the next dungeon at which point you repeat. From a game mechanic standpoint it's almost identical to a Zelda game.
Portable means it can run on different architectures. Portability is kind of the entire point of HTML5. Whether you can run software when disconnected from the network is another issue entirely.
Why do you need add-on support to provide this functionality? Wouldn't an HTTP proxy on localhost be able to do the same thing? That would be completely browser agnostic.
No, it's not going to do anything. At this point, nothing will do anything. Still better to do something than sit around moaning.
It's not like these people don't have a legitimate grievance. High Finance is an outright criminal institution these days. They orchestrated the largest property crime in history, and not one of them is being prosecuted for it.
Who's really the crack pot? The ones who want these criminals tried, or the ones who want them free?
Yeah, that's the real story here. Anyone asking for accountability from the criminals on Wall Street is a crack pot. On the other hand, those who demand the government keep its hands off of their social security, are patriots.
Yeah, Commodore drives are doable. You can build your own cable pretty easily even. (X1541 type) But I haven't seen that USB device before, I'll recommend that to people in the future. Cheap and easy.
Personally though, I use a 1541-Ultimate II, and just sneakernet.d64 files over on microUSB.
From the looks of it, they use javascript on the target computer to capture some plain text which helps them break the keys. So as a temporary measure, disable javascript until browser makers catch up.
I'm not aware of any cable that will allow you to connect an Apple II floppy directly to a modern PC. If you still have an Apple II computer however, there is a way to dump your disks onto PC. Check out ADTPro. It's client server software that runs on Apple IIs and Java, and allows you to dump floppies to disk images over a serial connection or the tape port. Try it. It's free and it's awesome!
5.25" disks are almost certainly still good if they've been stored properly. HD 3.5" disks have their magnetic domains packed really close together, over the years there's crosstalk and data loss. Most 3.5" disks I've tried from that era are bad. I don't think I've come across one 5.25" disk that wouldn't read.
After seeing the heartless machinations of our political and legal system up close, are you still hopeful that an individual can get a fair shake in our system? How rampant is prosecutorial abuse, such as that suffered by Kevin Mitnick (e.g. the NORAD whistle)? Is the complete lack of accountability for incompetent, corrupt, and malicious prosecutors and judges as serious of a problem as it appears from the outside?
What is your advice to someone who has absolutely no faith whatsoever in the legal system?
I thought you said there would be no government? Or was it just no government regulation of business? In any case, if there are no regulations against slavery, why wouldn't they?
First they came for the richest of the rich
I'm still waiting for someone to come for the richest of the rich. They just crashed the entire economy, and made a huge profit off of it. That should be criminal, in any sane world, but they get off scot free. Where is the persecution of the rich?
True, there never was love and hugs, but things were a lot worse in the past. What you're talking about is a lot worse than the destruction of the US dollar. What you're talking about is the reintroduction of slavery to the US. Without a government, what's to stop BP, or Monsanto, or Coca Cola from rounding up whatever labor they can at gunpoint? I know they can afford a much better private army than I can.

Your bios is already flashable. That's how bios updates work. And yes, there are bios viruses.

Not into games? What else is there? About the only other really low latency service
What about remote desktop?
Cygwin or UnxUtils work great.
Yep, and lemmings don't run off cliffs. Frogs don't sit passively in pots of slowly heating water. Yet these remain useful metaphors.

Beyond Good And Evil is an overrated game. It's a competent Zelda clone that gets way too much adulation because it has a female protagonist.

But only on Firefox.

Who wants to wake up next to a squid?
Doesn't Xen provide support for Windows guests these days? A full Linux install is kind of overkill if you're just using it as a hypervisor.
If you vote with your vote, will that count against the votes of others whose skulls are rather thicker than yours?

That's a fucking retarded distinction. Anything Turing complete is a computer.
For one, /. works a lot better with javascript disabled.

At the very least, clean the freaking drive. Using kimwipes and undenatured pure ethanol on the heads.
Denatured alcohol will work fine too if you're just using it as a solvent. Just don't drink it.
Also, kimwipes contain a bit of silica. I'd use lens paper if possible.

Gah. I always forget about snakebots.
