The panel's meetings are closed after Clapper exempted it from the U.S. Federal Advisory Committee Act... for 'reasons of national security,'
Congratulations Mr Clapper, I vote for a round of applause. Why is everyone being spied on? OH! that's right:
for 'reasons of national security,'
Almost forgot for a second.
You know, the internet is about the people, not the governments. Stop complaining about the governments collecting information and start collecting information about the government. If they do it, it's got to be ok. After all, every threat to the US population for the last 50 years has been specifically caused by the government. Couldn't spying on the government be considered national security?
Why has nobody made a service that even comes close to piracy?
Fucking stupid question IMO.
The media cartels are all scared shitless. They can't see the forest for the trees because the upper management is still wondering "How do we get people to go to cinemas again?". Why? Because they're all frightened, ageing, greedy, foolish, incontenent, semi-literate control freaks.
No point in shouting at the wind. Just keep pirating.
This is a commercially licensed product owned by a corporation spending the money to market it. Let me restate that, this particular plant is OWNED by a private company.
You think they're creating the plant because "they" (the starving people) are hungry? This biotech company wants to make money by prolifigating their crop throughout the developing world (because.. you know, they *need* it) and making money from countries desperate to keep their people alive.
It's not just the GMO part, the concerns are much, much, much larger than the not so simple question of "To GMO or not to GMO". It's about the continuation of life on this planet not beholden to corporate interests.
this is greasing the slope and then shoving
Am I the only person who just got a horrible visualisation?
They either haven't read or don't agree with the Slashdot moderation guide
Or both.
From a practical side, we also give a precise assessment of the security of the two Linux PRNGs, /dev/random and /dev/urandom
The internet must have finally run out of porn.
D-link's rep was buried long ago.
I'd tend to say that D-link's rep is long-lived and very consistent.
10x the new value of the device to any customer that wants to give it back
Silly idea, make them liable for costs. Then the device manufacturers will be supporting the [cough] on-line content industry [cough],
A laptop is a TOOL. A cellphone is a TOOL.
Pop quiz, Mary Lou Jepsen is .........
Are they cloning Sergei Brin?
Damn it! Don't give them ideas.
in many countries, it is still legal for the family of a recently-deceased private person to tell reporters to fuck off
Surely that would be reportable?
Given that everything we do and everything we aspire to requires more and more energy
I aspire to using less and less energy, so should you.
That doesn't keep you from going on a nice drive with your sweetie
To be fair, it's fairly difficult to drive one handed.
we could just not indulge this stupid shit to begin with
Wow! You took the words right out of my mouth.
Now that the government is shut down, does that mean the domestic spying program is also?
No, only non-essential government programs were shutdown.

other than Incapsula and its own service providers that were on the receiving end—no one seemed to notice
Thanks a bunch for saving the internets Marc. I'll be sure not to notice again soon.
doesn't Twitter still need data (either mobile or broadband)?
No, they're moving to a new brain embedded model with free T-shirts reading "I'm a twit. #follow me if you wish to remain safe".
FEMA were the first to volunteer all their staff.
Of course, ATI customers with 6000 series cards or earlier (or Zacate, Llano, or Richland APUs) are as out-of-luck as Intel and Nvidia GPU users
So existing ATI customers are being given the shaft
With the rise of Mantle, many console games developers are going to desire that the PC market rapidly changes to AMD only
because games producers are going to ditch 66% of the pc gaming marketplace
Any PC gamer interested in high-performance would be INSANE to buy any Nvidia product from now on
in favor of the minority of sane gamers
Nvidia, on the other hand, will be cursing themselves for ever starting this war
because the market leader in graphics cards is going to start crying into their huge wads of cash.
Next time you write a new API, try creating world peace. We need that more than faster fly by wire shooters.

Wow, that $89 R5 actually looks surprisingly attractive
I'm guessing that /. is the only website where this comment would find general agreement.

Piracy is stealing. Think of the artists!!

reportedly to search for spy antennae and other espionage related equipment on the building rooftops
That's what they *say* but the helicopter was really trying to draw fire.
Whether Instagram's young and growing user base will balk at the ads, or even notice them, remains to be seen.
Nah, I'm sure that polluting the content won't have any impact. After all, everyone loves advertising.
