  1. Don't bother unless... on Encrypted Filesystems With Linux? · · Score: 3

    you start off with a virgin disk and encrypt your page files. Any disk that undergoes forensic analysis would probably be suseptible to recovering previous data, even if a filesystem is encrypted afterwards. Of course in Windows everything is placed in one filesystem so you don't have to worry about this. FDISK once, install Windows, and encrypt.

  2. Re:Here's one they forgot to ask... on Answers from Carnivore Reviewer Henry H. Perrit, Jr. · · Score: 1

    Whatever. Just glad I run Windows. That whole thing looked downright crass. Linux is heading for the BIG FALL

  3. Here's one they forgot to ask... on Answers from Carnivore Reviewer Henry H. Perrit, Jr. · · Score: 2

    What are you going to do when IPV6 and IPSec/ESP become standard in all networking stacks? When you can't read the decrypt the packet, never mind reading the header, how do you "filter" out only the right email headers???

    Oh yeah, clipper... I guess that's the solution.

  4. Did Bush "exaggerate" in last Wednessday's debate? on Dark Hearts And The Net · · Score: 2
    Salon thinks so..."Say What?"

    Let's look at it closely:
    • Only two of those three Byrd killers will receive the death penalty. But worse, many legal analysts think Bush's callous statement about putting the killers to death will actually help them on appeal, because as the chief law enforcement officer Bush showed serious bias in public.
    • Bush's statements on global warming shows a serious misunderstanding of the issue... or else he's in the pocket of the oil industry. Hmmmm... I wonder which one it is... naaaa, he's too stupid to actually understand.
    • Re: the hate crimes legislation which died in committe... well, turns out he enacted a hate crimes law which excludes gays and didn't want to admit as such. DUHHHHH...
    • And what about his "we'll enforce the gun laws" tripe? Uh huh, Gore plans on enacting federal licensing? Who's the "exaggerator"????
    This whole campaign makes me sick Gore's too. Screw them both.
  5. MUFF MUFF! on [In]expensive Immersion? · · Score: 1
    I swear, you know the primary use of this will be:
    • Sex Toy
    • Games
    In that order. Personally, I don't think promoting masturbation by creating "enabling" tools such as these is appropriate for manufacturers or the buying public. I think I'll forward this one off to Tipper and Joe...
  6. Re:Todays rant on Assorted CEATEC Photos · · Score: 1

    Oh yeah! I wish we were all using computers with operating systems derived from CP/M. Oh wait! WE ARE!

  7. Great! If this goes like HDTV... on Assorted CEATEC Photos · · Score: 1

    Maybe we'll see televisions embedded in our cell phones fifteen years from now! I can't wait!

  8. Riiiiggggghhhhhttttt on StarOffice Source Released · · Score: 1

    Oh yeah, like that abi crap, oleo, GNUmeritless, or whathave you could use the bloat in staroffice. You honestly think it would fit in like a jigsaw puzzle?

  9. Could life be everywhere? on Bus-sized Meteorite Gives Clues To Earth's Origin · · Score: 1

    You could defines life as a process which consumes energy at the expense of entropy in order to replicate and self maintain. As long as the system replicates, what does it matter if it'a made of "organic" compounds? Isn't it still life?
