  1. Re:Camp David??? on Further Updates On Terrorist Attack · · Score: 1

    A National guard buddy of mine belives someone with permision to bring a fire arm on board was there - a us marshall, or a fed, and fought back.

    I am inclined to belive that rather than the crew fighting back

  2. Re:Better security on planes on More Links And Reports On Terrorist Attacks · · Score: 1

    A national guard friend of mine said he thought this

    The plane that went down in penn probably had someone who was allowed to carry a gun on board - like a marshal or fed. The guy probably started a shoot out or something... and a hole in the plane, or something like it sent it down. I think the woman who called 911 from her cell phone while locked in the bathroom mentioned a gunshot...

    Also, i bet there was inside help on American and United. Hence why it was on two of their planes. And someone on the ground crew could have easily smuggled weapons on board.

    And remember, the flights weren't full. Only about 200 (i think) people on all 4 planes.

  3. Re:Afghanistan? on More Links And Reports On Terrorist Attacks · · Score: 1
    Last i heard it was one of two tings

    1) Europe action as a declared action of war (very scary thought)

    2) Afghanistan civil war action... The US has said very definatly that it IS NOT THE US or any part of us retalitory strikes.

  4. It Really is too bad. on Review: Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back · · Score: 1

    The talk in the theater after i saw the movie last night is that this is the last View Askew production - with various quotes at the end of the movie (as us cult followers knew there would be) and the closing of the View Askew Book by "god".... Why i haven't heared anything directly saying that this is the last one, it would be sad if it was.

    Other than that - J+SBSB is the best of all of them! Go Jersy Trilogy! (5!)

  5. That would be a bad thing on Whistler "Anti-Piracy" Tools Tie OS To Machine · · Score: 1
    If MS did something like this, it would be horrible

    I'm not defending microsoft, but look at history

    Telephone service used to be phenominal. It rocked. Now you have crappy companies like Verizon and such that offer have rate service for more money.

    That is becaus Ma Bell died.

    If microsoft follows the same path, is it not concivable that software will go down the tube after it?

    And if it does, then where will we be?

    A lot of good software is good because everyone knows micorsoft makes shit products. So everyone else gets the bugs out first.

    BUt if microsoft is gone, and people have no other choices, whats to stop companies from making shity products cause its cheeper?

    Thats my 2 cents

  6. But... on Solution To DoS Attacks · · Score: 1

    Most systems have to be usefriendly for the masses of idiots out there. And teh more userfriendly the less protective it will be. This is why security will never be enough.

  7. Howabout a Muscle? on DNA As Electrical Conductor · · Score: 1
    In Business Week (this week) they announced that combinbing three forms of DNA in different orders can cause them to stick and unstick like muscles. This combined with the electricity will be helfull to creat Nano machines. Nano machines to create new and great wonders =)

  8. Corporate Goverment on Too Much Corporate Power? · · Score: 1
    That is what the internate world is becoming. It is impossible to have something as big as the internet with as many people on it is impossible for there to be no goverment like group in that kind of situation. That is the way it will be, unfortunatly. There just needs to be more individual control so the Corporate Goverment that is coming to the internet doesn't impede on our personal rights.

    that there will always be mistakes, and the people making the software will always base it own their own opinions or a group of peoples opinions that have nothing to do with what we know.

    some censorship is good (gasp). child porn for example is sick and degrading.

    but banning ideas? thats wrong.

  11. Re:ethics on nVidia's Ethics Questioned · · Score: 1
    You're probably right about that. I mean if people are accepting deals like that, shouldn't something be done? Did the article mention the sites? i just skimmed it, not really paying any attention to it. If they did, shouldn't something be said to them, for accepting such an un-ethical idea?

  16. This is neat... on One-Finger Keyboarding? · · Score: 1

    but we have to entirely relearn to type. Sure i did that using my TI-85 calculator when i learned to program it but it took a while. and i relearned to write on my mindspring palmpilot with their graffiti writing style that the screen recognizes. I leaned on a QWERTY. does this mean i'll have to learn another one?

  17. It's a matter of Quality on Are Linux Transactions Slower Than Win2k's? · · Score: 1

    There is always the matter of quality to consider. Linux may slow down, but because of the way it was tested (you know, opensource...) it has a LOT less bugs. i read somewhere that there are at least 1 bug per 100 lines of code. and OS use millions, if not billions of lines. Think about that. WIndows doesn't have the hundreds of thousands of people who have gone in there and seen the bugs for themeselves and fixed iat and told the creators. They only have a limitied team of humans to do the job and humans, as we all know, can only stare at straight code for so long. IT's more of a matter of quality, then speed sometimes.

  18. Thats pathetic on Understanding Script Kiddies · · Score: 1

    It's obvious that the state of the internet world is slowly being lost when someone cna click a few buttons, or spell out a few commands and break into a system. Whatever happened to the days when it took skill, ingeniousness, and creativity to do that?
