Alternative is if you could cap his upload on the network. If he's only saving the stuff at 50kb/s the computer should be able to manage to do other stuff with limited slowdown
"Special Measures Related to Technological Enforcement Means and the Internet"......really? the internet too? I thought it was just gonna shut down my warez BBS, but now they've gone too far
I'd like to know how it compares to other 'risk factors' such as parents who drink, parents who smoke, or parents who are psychologists.
I move that we must first issue a ban on people who drink from having children...tricky to enforce in that many children are a result of excessive drinking
They tried to gloss over it, but in the end it still takes in oxygen and releases CO2 while burning hydrocarbons. Sounds more like a more efficient version of current power systems than a alternative energy source.
The only upsides I can see is possible improvement in efficiency, decrease of cost, and less loss in transmission (since theoretically it's closer to whatever is using the power than a power plant). Now since they haven't actually given us any details on how these, I can't consider it a revolution.
That's not to say it wouldn't be good to buy some stock when it IPOs...just it may not be a good idea to hold it long
How many TV manufacturers will continue to have analog inputs on their TVs when a minority of devices use them? Most people only use VCR/DVD with their TV anyways, so if these lose analog, I imagine many if not most TVs will lose the analog support as well
Not to be overly simplistic, but wouldn't this be dangerous?
If you get into an accident with batteries in the car, you're fine as long as the battery doesn't hit you as it's destroyed. If your entire car is a battery, what is to stop it from electrocuting you when metal contorts in a weird way to cause you to be part of a short-circuit? Not to mention implications when you have to extract someone from a wrecked car
Isn't it a moot discussion anyways? Generally speaking they're going to get your IP address anyways when you connect to their server; so why is it important if they get your IP earlier when you're looking up their server?
I guess there could be some way to track what sites you're looking up from different tiers of DNS servers. If you were using google DNS, they'd have your entire DNS anyways, and if you were using another, then they'd only get your IP if you're connecting to google.com
If you read the entire post by google, you'll notice they are suggesting only the first 3 octects of the IP address are transmitted. Now while this could theoretically be used to censor regions of users, it could not be used to expose you (since it isn't the complete IP address)
It seems to me that the reporter himself contradicts his own claim at 100%...
From article: "Knowledge of that template then enabled filters to block further spam from that bot with 100 per cent accuracy."
In giant font below that: "Knowledge of the spam template enabled filters to block further spam with 100 per cent accuracy"
This reporter seems to have failed a basic SAT question along those lines.
If you read the article, you notice it says that they aren't paying the game developers. Rather than making a free game like America's Army, they opted to work with game developers to make a realistic MMOG that costs money.
While you could argue that time is money, this isn't paying millions
'put paid to the canard'
This one confused me too, since it seemed like a mistake at first
a canard is a groundless rumor / belief
'put paid to' is a phrase meaning "to deal with effectively, to finish something off"
So, it means finishing off the groundless belief that they're incompatible
Slashdot Mirror
May be true, but not his question. His question is how do you tell if something you have is malware, not how to find something not malware.
Though theoretically you could see if it's on download.com...this can only prove that it isn't malware, not that it is
From his interview it seems he's slightly mad
It's entirely possible that because of this, when deprived of oxygen, instead of becoming slightly mad, he becomes entirely sane....who knows

While it is indeed possible to throttle OS X users with a strong grip or a length of rope, it's quite illegal at least in the US

The article claims it's a risk factor, right?

I agree, in that I'd say the only conclusion is that we don't want Entergy building the new plants
I have to say, from my experience in forums and online games, diplomacy is not a strong point in internet users...or even attempted by said group

1) Don't get sick
2) Die quickly

Taken from comments section of article:
Individual CAs can be removed via the "advanced" preferences panel. It's instructive, actually, to look at the list - there's a lot of entries there.
One could switch to another browser, but it's worth thinking about how open that browser's CA inclusion process is first.

Everyone knows the holiday Easter came from the three wise-men scouring the desert looking for the egg of Jesus.
Here in america we prefer a system where the ISP gets a monopoly and can advertise what you could get, not what you will get ...sadly
Beats a console controller any day, even lab scientists agree
