  1. 790,815,794,162,126,871,771,506,399,625 on AACS Vows to Fight Bloggers · · Score: 2

    Seems a bit easier.

  2. Re:Glad to see it on RIAA Backs Down Again in Chicago · · Score: 1

    Imagine how the losing side in a case would feel
    if they found out.

  3. Re:Leave on Creating a Full-Time Sysadmin Position at a School? · · Score: 1

    At the beginning of the new school year in the fall
    if needed, but preferably immediately before the
    next years school budget meetings.

  4. Re:I doubt it would happen on Why Apple Should Acquire AMD · · Score: 2, Funny

    Switching instruction sets is one thing.
    Switching x86 processor manufacturers would be easier.

    Of course, an AMD processor in a MAC laptop would
    probably cause the laptop to catch on fire.

  5. No difference between the bot and Windows on Exposing Bots In Big Companies · · Score: 0, Troll

    Seriously, there is no difference.

    Instead of suing those who disclose the fact
    that machines on their lan are infected,
    they should sue Microsoft for allowing it.

    You don't know that Windows is not doing the
    same nasty spyware tricks that people accuse
    the bots of doing.

    Oh, that's right, there is a difference.

    The Microsoft EULA covers their ass, whereas
    the bot does not ask you for permission to spy.

  6. The lack of IPv6 deployment is your clue on In Net Neutrality, It's Jeffersonet Vs. Edisonet · · Score: 2, Insightful

    It would make total sense to deploy all of the high bandwidth
    applications such as video on IPv6, and keep the existing
    e-mail and web applications on IPv4.

    Total sense.

    But, the darkside has frozen IPv6 deployment because
    they want to control it all!

    It really is that simple.

  7. This will legalize the NSA Spying and more on Spy Act of 2007 = "Vendors Can Spy Act" · · Score: 2, Insightful

    The exceptions are too broad.

  8. Re:And ... ? on Russinovich Says, Expect Vista Malware · · Score: 1, Informative
    Rename files containing 'install' to something else.

    The height of stupidity from Microsoft.
    Will they be able to top it?

  9. The third time it's enemy action. on OMB Website Exposes Thousands of SSNs · · Score: 2, Insightful
    1. SEC
    2. DOJ
    3. OMB

    "Once is happenstance. Twice is coincidence. The third time it's enemy action."

  10. Already happening in the U.S. on Airships to Patrol Venezuela's Skies · · Score: 0, Troll

    There have been reports of this already,
    and I'm fairly certain that the domestic airlines
    have already been outfitted with underbelly cameras
    for that purpose. If you are near a major airport,
    watch the patterns of the planes when they arrive
    for landing. I believe that you will observe that
    successive planes do not follow the same flight path,
    but actually have slightly overlapping flight paths,
    even when they are all going to land on the same runway.

  11. Re:3:30 is far better on RIAA Wants Student Deposed On School Day · · Score: 1

    No, it's about RIAA lawyers abusing the system.

  12. iowaconsumercase.org on Details of Microsoft's Settlement With Iowa · · Score: 1
    No, Microsoft settled because the publicity was getting bad. Once settled, the website called iowaconsumercase.org was changed so that a bunch of damaging documents were hidden.

  13. Re:Tilting at Windmills on Anti-Spam Suits and Booby-Trapped Motions · · Score: 1
    No, I'd rather filter it myself than have my ISP toss out false positives.

  14. Correlation with usage of Microsoft products on US Government IT Security 'Outstandingly Mediocre' · · Score: 1

    DHS for example, is heavy into Windows.

    Any exceptions?

  15. Re:Deleted? What about the redundancy? What about on Thousands of White House E-mails Deleted · · Score: 1

    Well, if the NSA has been really doing their job
    of wholesale network sniffing,
    they should have a copy of the e-mails.

    That was my suggestion to Senator Leahy.

  16. Re:Funded by Microsoft on SCO Legally Assaults PJ of Groklaw · · Score: 1

    Not yet. You must let them make more rope.

  17. Re:Another organization that wants to be above the on ICANN Wants Immunity · · Score: 1
    I have to agree. These Nazis will do anything, including destroying their own buildings (WTC), in order to scare the sheeple. But, first, we have to see the fallout from Iran Friday.

  18. Re:Surprise? on Large Caves Found on the Surface of Mars · · Score: 1

    You mean it's just rumour that the caves
    on mars are not hangers for UFOs?

  19. Economic Espionage on DHS Wants Master Key for DNS · · Score: 1

    That's what it ultimately gets down to.

  20. Re:3rd-party Analysis? on FSF Releases Third Draft of GPLv3 · · Score: 2, Informative
    Link

    Read it over and over for the next 3 days.

  21. Re:Speaking as a non-Republican non-Democrat on FCC Votes Yet Another Study of Net Neutrality · · Score: 1
    It's not like the congress can solve routing problems.

    Well, they could, if they took that away from the NSA.

  22. Re:Along these lines... on FCC Votes Yet Another Study of Net Neutrality · · Score: 1

    That's what duct tape is for.

    BTW, you are both basically saying the same thing.

    Yes, there really is no need for a new law.

    The danger is that once a law is established,
    it will be manipulated, even if that law specially
    calls for Network Neutrality, the status quo.

  23. SCOTUSblog comments, link to oral arguments on SCOTUS Case May End Sale Prices · · Score: 1

    Just the other night, on '24'.

    that's where Steve is.
