    Exactly!!! who the F@#$ is going to eat something from a company called Soylent.

  2. Re:Why does being rich and famous... on WikiLeaks Publishes Cryptic UFO Emails Sent To Clinton Campaign From Former Blink 182 Singer (gizmodo.com) · · Score: 1

    Tom DeLonge has a documentary project called Sekret Machines, so it is probably less about losing your mind and more about making money. https://www.youtube.com/watch?...

  4. Re:Encryption and Digital Signatures on One of Europe's Biggest Companies Loses 40 Million Euros In Online Scam (softpedia.com) · · Score: 1

    This is exactly what I was thinking. This could be a lesson about not being a prick when accounting wants you to verify transactions or invoices.

  5. Re:I am not saying it's aliens. on SETI Has Observed a 'Strong' Signal That May Originate From a Sun-like Star (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

  6. Yes, we still send manuals on CD on Ask Slashdot: Do You Still Use Optical Media? · · Score: 1

    We make large industrial equipment and we still send the manual and print pack on a CD with the machine. The customer can buy hard copies of the same materials and we have sent the materials out on thumb drives but standard practice is to send a CD. I think that the old idea "no one ever reads the manual" is the reason we have not changed this practice and we have a shitload of CDs.

    Do we really think Jacob was the target and not the Tor project? He is just the vehicle. The target is obviously the project. It is a very effective attack against an otherwise difficult adversary.

    Here's some Sun Tzu to think about.

    When strong, avoid them. If of high morale, depress them. Seem humble to fill them with conceit. If at ease, exhaust them. If united, separate them. Attack their weaknesses. Emerge to their surprise.

    Be extremely subtle, even to the point of formlessness. Be extremely mysterious, even to the point of soundlessness. Thereby you can be the director of the opponent’s fate.

    So the combination is... A, C, E, zero, two, four, six, eight, B, D, F, one, three, five, seven, nine. That's the stupidest combination I've ever heard in my life! That's the kind of thing an idiot would have on his luggage!

    I know a lot of people that allow the browser to remember their passwords so that when i walk up to the system and go to a webpage I become them?

  17. I can see the advertising featuring Kurt Russell on Volvo Promises 'Death-Proof' Cars By 2020 (extremetech.com) · · Score: 3, Funny

    Hey, Pam, remember when I said this car was death proof? Well, that wasn't a lie. This car is a hundred percent death proof. Only to get the benefit of it, honey, you REALLY need to be sitting in my seat.

  24. Re:How did these idiots catch anyone? on FBI Informant: Ray Bradbury's Sci-fi Written To Induce Communistic Mass Hysteria · · Score: 1

    I want to believe education solves the problem but I have met plenty of "well educated" people who are susceptible to the propaganda. On the other hand I have met plenty of classically uneducated individuals who are really good at manipulation.
