  1. Boy on Sony Running Unpatched Servers With No Firewall · · Score: 1

    This just keeps getting better and better!

  2. -5 Rep on Oracle Subpoenas Apache Foundation In Google Suit · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I wonder if anyone at Oracle realizes how they're continually mangling their image? I didn't ask if they care, simply if they realize it.

  3. 3 to 1 on 'Motherlode' of Data Seized At Bin Laden Compound · · Score: 1

    Let me guess he had a lot of child pornography as well as an Outlook contact list chock full of marihuana suppliers?

    Finally we'll see how the war on terror, child pornography and drugs mesh together!

  4. Only Office Environments on The Importance of Lunch · · Score: 2

    I worked at KMART for a time when I was freshly graduated from school (BS Computer Science) and was unable to find any work.

    3rd shift ate lunch together every night, but we were all still working at KMART.

    Although this idea is more geared towards office/professional work just wanted to throw that experience out there.

  5. If Everyone Does It on Ask Slashdot: Best Way To Leave My Router Open? · · Score: 1

    I think the idea is that if everyone participates in this "movement" then law enforcement won't be able to willy nilly break down our doors and start throwing people in jail.

    That and wireless will be everywhere!

  6. USA Infrastructure on Does China's Cyber Offense Obscure Woeful Defense? · · Score: 1

    I'd be interested to see how well prepared our (USA) infrastructure is.

    Let me guess...

  7. Re:Infected with moles on WikiLeaks Releases Guantanamo Prisoner Files · · Score: 1

    Your opinion. Let's be clear on that.

  8. Please... on Iran Says Siemens Helped US, Israel Build Stuxnet · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    Don't associate Texas with the USA.

  9. Cradle of Life & Language on All Languages Linked To Common Source · · Score: 3, Insightful

    The "cradle of life" was apparently the same place that language originated?!

    Astounding!

    Africa gave us life and language, and now look at her =(

  10. Re:How Amusing on Third Humble Bundle Arrives, 'Frozenbyte' Edition · · Score: 1

    I'd indeed pay more for native World of Warcraft.

  11. How Amusing on Third Humble Bundle Arrives, 'Frozenbyte' Edition · · Score: 1

    Oh how I find this quite amusing. (Snapshot from when I was at the payment page)

    • Total payments: $92,658.36
    • Number of purchases: 17,728
    • Average purchase: $5.23
    • Average Windows: $4.13
    • Average Mac: $6.55
    • Average Linux: $12.15
  12. Safe Slumber on NYPD Anti-Terrorism Cameras Used For Much More · · Score: 3, Funny

    I can't wait til this becomes a nationwide practice so that all civilians can feel safe knowing that the terrorists and criminals are being actively monitored and will never ever harm us again.

  13. Pop on FCC Requires Data-Roaming Agreements · · Score: 1

    It's nice that the FCC finally had its balls drop and started taking some advances in a (what I consider to be) better direction.

    Now if we can only get Congress to stop screwing everything up by voting on issues they have no idea about that'd be amazing.

    That and a more radical president.

  14. Approved Budgets? on Feds Prep For E-Gov Shutdown · · Score: 1

    From TFA:

    "Herndon, Va.-based Xceedium counts numerous federal agencies among its customers, and Ammon said, 'We have customers that are prohibited from purchasing anything until they get an approved budget.'"

    What a horrible thing to have happen! Getting an approved budget before you purchase something? What is our government putting its poor employees through!

  15. Re:Work on Interpol Wants a Global Identity Card System · · Score: 1

    In this case I was thinking more like "reisen macht frei", but I like the reference.

  16. Re:Ugh on NASA Green-lights $16.5M To Advance Future Jets · · Score: 1

    Same with Germany and Australia. I could take bus and train anywhere and everywhere without the stress of driving, listen to my ipod, take a nap, not have to think about driving while being much faster.

    That's what I want in America.

  17. Ugh on NASA Green-lights $16.5M To Advance Future Jets · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    That's great, can we get that budget approved for high speed trains too while we're at it? I'm sick of having a horrid public transportation infrastructure. And highways are so 1950s...new please!

  18. Work on Interpol Wants a Global Identity Card System · · Score: 1

    I'd be up for having an international form of identification (card) if it meant I can work wherever I want.

  19. Re:Finally on FCC.gov: A Modern Open Platform · · Score: 1

    And I forgot to format my response which doesn't make it very usable...

  20. Finally on FCC.gov: A Modern Open Platform · · Score: 2

    I hope many more government agencies being following redesign, their sites are hurtful even with my contacts out. When I went to the current fcc.gov page it was "wow..." the "beta" site looks at least current and willingly viewable. Certainly won't hurt their abandonment rate! And yes I get the whole "don't judge a site by it's css" which is cute and all, but bad usability is just laziness. And design is certainly part of usability.

  21. Whiner on Congressman Wants YouTube Video Covered Up · · Score: 1

    Just because no one watches CSPAN doesn't mean that we shouldn't be able to watch you talk through other media outlets.

  22. Re:I Blame the Secreteries on European Parliament Computer Network Breached · · Score: 1

    We call them "queen bees".

  23. I Blame the Secreteries on European Parliament Computer Network Breached · · Score: 2

    I'd venture a guess that a lot of the secretaries are on coupon websites. Downloading and allowing god knows what to run.

  24. Amazon on Amazon's Cloud Player: We Don't Need a License · · Score: 1

    LEAVE THE MUSIC INDUSTRY ALONE!!!!

    This drama is better than any of the movies released this year thusfar!

  25. Please be it... on ISP's War On BitTorrent Hits World of Warcraft · · Score: 1

    Maybe this will finally get people to protest against the monopolistic ways we keep allowing.
