  1. Just remove all crap on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Won't Fit On a CD · · Score: 1

    Like Unity, Shotwell, mono, etc.

  2. And GNU Pascal sucks on Things That Turbo Pascal Is Smaller Than · · Score: 1

    GNU Pascal makes very fat and slow binaries. And its not really compatible with turbo pascal.
    Good there is freepascal, which is much better and more compatible.
    One of the few things, where i wonder why GNU fucks up so hard.

  3. Re:By telephone or in person on Ask Slashdot: How To Securely Share Passwords? · · Score: 1

    maybe you do it before you're dead? Just use your brain while reading comments.

  4. Re:Siri... who cares? on iPhone 4S Has Been Jailbroken, Hack Enables Siri on iPhone 4 · · Score: 1

    Dr. Watson? Like on Windows 98se?

  5. Re:Quorum looks a lot like Pascal on Is Perl Better Than a Randomly Generated Programming Language? · · Score: 1

    try to read a diff from version a to e, where b was white-space change and c was logical, d white-space and e logical ... now seperate white-space changes from logic changes in your head. good luck.

  6. Re:Microsoft on Skype Goes After Reverse-Engineering · · Score: 1

    nope, its a skype problem. Since the very first version they were very keen on keeping their stuff secret, with spyware-like techniques of detecting debuggers in memory and not starting when they are detected and such stuff, just to keep their protocol secret (some people suspect they do more than just voip, noone knows because of all the binary obfuscation in their programs)

  7. Is it a Bug? on New Attack Tool Exploits SSL Renegotiation Bug · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Sounds more like a protocol flaw than a bug.

  8. Re:jwz on Google+ To End Real Names Policy · · Score: 1

    its buggy as hell.

    they let me test one of the prototypes. i hit enter without entring anything and got a fucking backtrace? WTF? Doesn't ruby on rails have a nice forms-framework as django? not catching user-input errors but dropping the user into a backtrace? WTF?

  9. Re:Skeptical on Facebook: the Law Says You Can't Have Your Data · · Score: 1

    copyright != right on the image.

    The right on image is from the person which is primary target. If you take a portrait of me, you cannot publish it. At least in countries with reasonable data privacy laws, like Germany.

  10. url missing from summary on More Details On the German Government's Use of Malware · · Score: 1

    It would be really cool, if slashdotters would actually link their sources.

  11. Re:True RNG on Ask Slashdot: What To Do With Old Webcams? · · Score: 1

    A good idea, but not really useful. If you do it how you normally would do it, you mostly record the noise from the sensor and the events creating white pixels are rather rare. So you will NOT get useful random numbers, if you really depend on them you will need to find another solution.

  12. Re:I Was Gonna Join... on Google+ Loses 60% of Active Users · · Score: 1

    yeah, so right.

  13. Re:Third option: on Google+ Loses 60% of Active Users · · Score: 1

    Diaspora failed before it even started.

  14. Re:So will AntiVirus software find it? on German Government's Malware Analyzed · · Score: 1

    f-secure at least will.

  15. Re:Surprise, surprise, surprise on German Government's Malware Analyzed · · Score: 1

    no. its just "sudo -s". "sudo su" is for people who cannot read manpages.

  16. Re:Taking Care of Open Source Software on Ask Slashdot: Spreading the Word About At-Risk Open Source Projects? · · Score: 1

    the bsdl requires you to do some things. The gpl requires you to do just the same plus some additional stuff. Nowhere in the bsdl is said, you cannot make additional rules, its only forbidden to make less. But it is hard to have less rules, because bsdl does not have so many rules.

  17. Re:I don't understand. on Facebook Confirms New Cookie-Tracking Issue · · Score: 1

    and you do not get, how a passport can identify you.

  18. Re:Third Party Cookies on Facebook Confirms New Cookie-Tracking Issue · · Score: 1

    its only sent, if you do not disable thirdparty cookies.

  19. Re:VMWare Player + Linux VM on Facebook Files For a Patent To Track Its Users On Other Sites · · Score: 1

    just another firefox profile would be okay. if you are paranoid, run firefox under another user with gksu to have it on the same screen as the other firefox. make sure to use another theme to be able to distinguish the two profiles easily.

  20. Re:Cookie exchanger on Facebook Files For a Patent To Track Its Users On Other Sites · · Score: 1

    Such a plugin existed, but as far as i know it was suspended by its creators, because its to dangerous that actual identity theft happens because of this plugin.

  21. Re:anything that can be made by a man on Security By Obscurity — a New Theory · · Score: 1

    Most of them can be transformed into each other in time P. Now we only wait, that one of them gets broken.

  22. Re:Not exactly. on Security By Obscurity — a New Theory · · Score: 1

    it is like security by obscurity additional, which is often done. like putting the login-page on an unsual location.

  23. Re:seriously... on HideMyAss.com Doesn't Hide Logs From the FBI · · Score: 1

    the mac is only transmitted to the next router, not to the target site.

  24. Re:Who would have thought so.... on HideMyAss.com Doesn't Hide Logs From the FBI · · Score: 1

    I think its illegal to use the software to provide the proxy-service to users. The software itself is okay and noone says how you should do the logging, only what you need to log. what's mostly the original ip proxy ip mapping.

  25. Re:Who would have thought so.... on HideMyAss.com Doesn't Hide Logs From the FBI · · Score: 1

    what, if they really have no logs, even for themself? Then they can just say "we do not have anything, look at the systems if you like to."

    What should happen? Nobody will suspect they did it themself, because they are a proxy company, its obvious that any user could have done it.
