  1. I happen to agree. on Hotmail's Spam Filter: The Best In the Business? · · Score: 1

    Except for the occasional phishing scam that make it to my inbox Hotmail does a not so bad job. Off course I been using it less recently to sign-up on other site so maybe it related. It did sent my / newsletter when / changed the newsletter format.

  2. Gold! on Major Bitcoin Exchange Ceases Operation · · Score: 1

    I still say Gold and maybe Pelt are the way to go! Off course when the shit really end up hitting the proverbial fan clean water. paper toilet, and fuel for your Mad Max death squad will be all you really need!

    I know at least one town build on the fact that your assertion is false. I believe it in Nevada!

  4. Re:Courts Won't Win -- Use Hidden Volumes on US Judge Rules Defendant Can Be Forced To Decrypt Hard Drive · · Score: 1

    Those great Mac magnetic power cable could come in handy you remove the battery from a macbook and the power cable you tie to the opening door of your home office. Somebody open that door from the wrong side at the wrong moment and zap it gone. "Sorry but you tripped on my power cord and everything was stored in Ram Disk!"

  5. Re:Instead of destroying the key on US Judge Rules Defendant Can Be Forced To Decrypt Hard Drive · · Score: 1

    If they get your desktop chances are they also got your smartphone! In fact since almost every smartphone makers leave backdoors it the least secure place to hide anything.

  6. Live CD and SD card that the way to go! on US Judge Rules Defendant Can Be Forced To Decrypt Hard Drive · · Score: 1

    If I was up to no good I be running my "fill in the blank" off a live CD. If you have five seconds to turn the shit off it gone. No fuss no muss.

  7. Overkill or don't bother! on PS4: What Sony Should and Shouldn't Do · · Score: 1

    The next gen should be aiming at some serious spec upgrade like 16GB Ram plus at least 2GB of DDR5 on the graphic card. Small SSD hard drive for the games and huge 1TB hard drive for media! And off course faster and more reliable Blu-Ray drive! Maybe even removable BR drive so that if or when it crap out the average Joe can open a latch and replace it himself instead of paying a technician to do it! Better CPU is a maybe because let face it the GPU is handling most of the work anyway. In fact I go with more reliable and more energy efficient cpu instead of faster. Less juice equal less heat equal less hardware failure! And for god sake put some usb port in the back! At this point you might as well build your own gaming rig it going to be cheaper than a PS4! loll Seriously they can just do a few minor upgrade to the current ps3 and call it a PS4. USB 3, cross game chat so that we wont hear kids nagging about it for another five fucking years toss a cheap headset in the box so that everybody will talk now! (More like Yell!) A few GB of Ram and maybe support Ext4 for external hard drive because Fat 32 is just too damn old! Wireless N is another no brainer I still can't believe Sony did not include that in the slim! A cool upgrade that won't happen is include or develop a PS4 router that already configured to give you freaking NAT 2!

  8. You had me at crank and solar power! on OLPC XO-3 To Debut At CES, Starting Under $100 (But Not For You) · · Score: 1

    Hell why is nobody else coming up with that kind of design? I love to have a tablet that I never need to log around a charger. Hope they get a buy one give one program going because am getting at least two.

  9. Re:And the point is...? on Thumbdrive-Sized Streaming Media Players Coming Soon · · Score: 1

    I went the ps3 route. I set up a mediatomb media server on my files server and stream away to a ps3 already connected to the HDTV in the basement anyway. I could get fancy and support some on the fly transcoding with ps3mediaserver, but the old laptop running my file servers would not handle it very well. Beside the ps3 support a rather large range of video files you might even say it almost p2p friendly. The sad part is my Sharp Quattron does have WIFI and media server baked in but it not supporting half the files that the ps3 does!

  10. Re:Additional content? on Microsoft To Offer Flight For Free This Spring · · Score: 1

    Gas you get all the planes for free but you must buy the gas at the real rate to fly anywhere! loll

  11. Not Saturated but Captured! on HP Wanted $1.2B For WebOS and Palm · · Score: 1

    It not about market saturation it about ecosystem capture. You buy a smartphone then you buy apps for that phone on either the Apple or Google marketplace what do you do two years from now when you decide to get a new smartphone? Considering that you invested say more or less 100$ in apps will you switch ecosystem and lose those apps or stay inside whatever ecosystem you were in. This is why the smartphone OS market is so hard to crack for everybody but the few who got there first.

  12. Re:Dear HP, why do you hate money? on HP TouchPad Go: $99? · · Score: 1

  20. Re:Why don't U.S. carriers also use ski-jump? on Satellite Spots China's First Aircraft Carrier · · Score: 1

    With the drones in the pipeline now you can launch them from anywhere and hit any place on earth. off course if all the drones come from Nellis it will make for an even juicier target to hit! The nice thing about carrier is that they are a mobile platform that you can move around. The other option is always on drones if you have a fleet of drones always circling the sky you can hit any point even faster. Off course the next step after that is the weaponization of space... One need to ask at what point is the state of perpetual war cost/benefit ratio so out of whack that it easier and cheaper to actually live in a peaceful world?
