Perfect! If you can wait for your hard drives, by all means please do! Since there is now limited supply, you are leaving them for those who need them now (and are willing to pay for the priviledge).
Errr, mixed up my scrolls, the Dead Sea Scrolls pre-date bar Kochba and don't talk about him at all. My point still stands, though: being a false profit doesn't result in being written out of history...
It is kind of obvious, isn't it? I mean, these scrolls were written by Jews who were not converted to Christianity. For the majority of the Jews who were not converted, if Jesus existed he was nothing but a false prophet, certainly not worth mentioning.
Judaism has had many "false prophets", and doesn't shy away from calling them out. Wikipedia even has a whole list of them. And more specifically, many of the Dead Sea Scrolls talk extensively about bar Kochba....
One way that one can be biased is to not question studies showing that discrimination might be a significant factor while questioning those that show that discrimination could not be blamed for a negative outcome. Are you sure you're not displaying this kind of bias?
The other systems (databse & biometrics) are already built and in place, Bruce Schneier just doesn't know about them (he's a mathematician, not an airport security expert).
Believe me, the 808 cameras work about 60% of the time. Figure a doubling of price for every standard deviation up in reliability, and you start to understand milspec pricing.
Holy shit, 6 out of 7 respondents to the GP (all but anredo) completely missed the point. [insert standard complaint about slashdot going downhill].
Web pages with script are not static, and caching the HTML script output does nothing. Server-side code generally has to be run per-visitor. Akamai has all sorts of crazy custom XML to specify which portions are static.
Setting up a proper CDN for the modern web is more complicated than just redirecting some DNS entries.
The KGB doesn't exist anymore. Russian intelligence agencies do exist but the KGB doesn't. You'd think that someone who remotely knows what they're talking about wouldn't end up writing an article about whether a long-defunct intelligence agency could infiltrate a defunct hacktivist group. Had the question been "Could the SVR infiltrate Anonymous?" or "Could the SVR infiltrate LulzRaft?" the article might not immediately look like a bad rehash of a 1980s spy novel
In all fairness, it is only the slashdot summary that talks about the KGB infiltrating anonymous. The (very short) article is speculating that China could be doing something analagous to what the KGB did 40 years ago.
Why does anyone think this video is from Microsoft?
The video itself isn't credited, and it was posted to youtube by TheLinuxFoundation with the caption: "User-submitted video from The Linux Foundation Video Site".
This is actually one of the improvements in Windows Vista:
The TaskDialog is the OS functionality for easily showing a dialog with descriptive button labels instead of just old school MessageBox with OK/Cancel/etc.
Wikileaks, as you mentioned, works to reveal secrets. As a part of that work they also have to keep some secrets however, for example about their sources.
The US Government works for openness and freedom. As a part of that work they also have to keep some secrets however, for example about their sources.
Pickard has repeatedly told us she does not like to talk to USG officials because the USG is "leaky." She may be concerned that by telling us the true impact of the attack, more bad news about Shell's Nigerian operations will leak out.

kind of, but not exactly. I was using self-signed in the literal sense (x509 issuer same as subject), like whats given out by http://www.selfsignedcertificate.com/
Hint: that issuer ain't Verisign. I don't know whether that's the official DoD cert or if that's one created by that particular organization, but I do know that it doesn't ship with any popular browser by default
No, its not verisign. And of course they aren't self-signed, thats retarded. The US military has the largest PKI deployment in the world, they know a thing or two about certs. The DOD has their own root certificates which don't ship by default with commercial browser, since they aren't relevant for normal use (and theoretically, they would allow the DOD to MITM your SSL connections).
Yes, and thats part of the problem. "Gun crime" is a term coined by those who have an agenda against the inanimate objects known as "guns". Notice how the term "knife crime" didn't exist until the british busybodies had succeeded in banning guns and needed a new target...

Yes, the DoD (and other parts of the government) run their own CA's, and appropriate people have added those root keys to their system.
However, that doesn't help here. A big part of this problem is that ANY CA trusted by your system can issue a cert for any domain.

Internet Explorer invented the term "kiosk mode" when it was introduced with IE4 in 1997. ;)
Actually, I just noticed it was posted to the Linux Video site by MicrosoftGermany. Wonder how much the mothership knew about this one?

Insightful? Really???
The GP's post was actually a decent paraphrase of "From each according to his ability, to each according to his need".
And yes, some modern progressives may not be marxists, but I sure wouldn't say its that far off base...

This exists! It's called Amazon Verified Purchase. See, for example:

I don't know if their ranking algorithm rates reviews from verified purchases higher or not, but wouldn't be surprised...

You do realize that's completely wrong... See, e.g. GPS, The Microwave Oven or, say The Internet.
