Why does it seem that laws like this would do nothing except scare away responsible White Hat hackers who report security flaws, leaving only the Black Hats who profit from their computer crimes?
It does matter though. Didn't use screen? Lost a connection? Your processes are terminated. Linux sucks in that regard, you need to know about the hangup "feature" that immediately kills your processes when the terminal dies.
Why shouldn't Newgrounds be on that list? Newgrounds is full of crappy porn "games" and other adult content. Blocking Newgrounds makes just about as much sense as blocking 4chan.
I love how the intro of the paper talks about Tool Assisted Speedruns, but then proceeds to claim that a solid wall will stop Mario. Anyone who's ever watched the TASs of Super Mario Bros will see the trick where Mario busts through a solid wall like it's nothing.
I think the real problem is that CuteMouse hadn't been written yet. Sometimes you may have been able to get away with another compatible mouse driver that used less memory.
You can't escape The Google. View any website with an ad from doubleclick.com? Google knows it, and what site your were visiting at the time. View any website with a ReCaptcha? Google knows what site you were visiting at the time. View any website that hotlinked the Google logo? Site using Google-Analytics or Google APIs?
Now sit back and enjoy your Kool Aid. Or use Adblock, Noscript, and RequestPolicy to block third party use of Google. But too bad if you actually need to fill out a ReCaptcha to register or post somewhere, or use a website that depends on Google APIs.
VLC Media Player is a self-contained media player program that will play almost anything you throw at it, and works independently of any codecs installed on your system. So even if your codec installations get messed up, VLC still works. It also plays DVDs.
Does this mean that all antivirus makers must start doing sanity checks before releasing definition updates to the public? For example, there was once a definition update for an antivirus program that deleted some critical system file in Windows. Running a scan against a set of known clean Windows files and other popular programs should always be done before a release. Same idea for popular websites.
Someone guessed Sarah Palin's security questions (such as "Where did you first meet your spouse" with the answer of her high school in Alaska), and got into the account. Then the password was changed to popcorn.
The "Torbrowser" package from eff.org I mentioned does not manually require starting Tor, you just run something called "Start Tor Browser.exe", and it does everything for you, you just run it and start browsing. No need to "Start up tor", or "manually turn on" anything. It's a separate profile from your main Firefox profile. But it doesn't auto-update. Some people think that's a privacy risk, so they exclude those kind of features.
Vidalia still starts up in the background, but it shuts down when you close the browser.
Tried "Torbrowser"? It's a pack that lets you run a "Portable App" preconfigured custom build of Firefox Aurora 9, which automatically logs you into Tor before you use the browser. Really easy to use.

I just tested out 32-bit linux mint cinnamon in VirtualBox.

"Open require Javascript, please enable the javascript in your browser and try again"
Sounds like an outsourced job.
Wake me up when there's pervasive Reed-Solomon error correction everywhere.
Yes, let's take a game originally coded in tight X86 assembly language, then shit all over it by converting it into super slow Javascript.
Great... Just what we need...
Pesticides with Antibiotics mixed in there too. I for one welcome our new superbug overlords.
Sure, let's try to decode MP3 audio in real time on an 8MHz 68000 processor.
Nope, it doesn't quite do "just as much".
Look at Windows 7 right now. Now look at Windows 8. Are you trying to suggest that Windows 7 won't have longevity?
HTTPS as it exists now is broken. Self-signed certificates are taboo, and there's a one IP address limit per site.

How does this language compare with Mozilla's new programming language?

Yes, let's use big power supply for all computers, so they all share the same exact point of failure.

No, with iPads, instead you have to worry about games where you pay for in-game goods with real money tied to the iTunes account.

It still takes forever to "Rebuild the Font Cache".
What exactly is VLC doing when it does this?

I only use Mint as a live CD (USB flash drive actually). Since you can't use MATE on a live CD, that's a deal breaker.
That never happened.

Yeah, when you're writing Assembly, it's still assembly. Using lisp to make macros doesn't change the langauge.
