Lets say that the FBI only uses Carnivore in a reasonable, legal way. But who else could use it?
I don't like this part: "...did have the capability to be monitored itself from a remote site via telephone...would also allow a remote user to change the filtering criteria...capable of transmitting some gathered data
via the telephone connection."
How difficult would it be to find the dial-up number as the ISP? And then to crack the login?
The fact that it runs on a Windows box isn't reassuring either.
Well, yeah, but the answer is: We're not telling you.
"As part of these investigations, the House Select Committee on Intelligence requested documents from the National Security Agency (NSA) regarding its operating standards for intelligence systems like ECHELON that may intercept communications of Americans. In a surprising move, NSA officials refused to disclose these documents by invoking the attorney-client privilege."
Since the principle is to vaporize the water in order to create the bubble... instead of doing it by accelerating the projectile to a super high speed in order to create a low pressure zone, and thereby encourage the water to vaporize, what if you heated the nose of the projectile to vaporize the water? Would this reduce the initial speed needed to create the bubble?
The filenames starting with DCP are most likely from a Kodak DC 2xx series, as thats the naming convention these use for the image files. I have a DC200, and it takes pretty nice photos for a fixed focus camera.
I just installed a variable resistor (POT) on my power supply fan. Now I have a little knob on back of case which I can use to turn down the noise. With the fan spinning slow, it still moves enough air volume to keep the power supply from baking, but its nice and quiet.
I used a 10k ohms potentionmeter from Radio Shack, but that seems to be way to much resistance. Probably a couple hundred k ohms would be perfect. Or you can buy a bunch of resistors and just install the one that gives you a good speed. But with the POT, on hot days, or when I won't be around, I can still crank the fan up all the way.

Just a thought.
