  1. Re:Get a warrant on Prosecutors Op-Ed: Phone Encryption Blocks Justice · · Score: 1

    I believe the owner might be dead.

  2. Re:AdBlock+ = inferior & 'souled-out' vs. host on Study: Ad Blocker Use Jumps 41 Percent · · Score: 1

    Nice try, APK.

  3. Re:Ublock = inferior & inefficient vs. hosts on Study: Ad Blocker Use Jumps 41 Percent · · Score: 1

    The irony of unblockable spam posts being used to push adblocking software.

  4. Re:I can't recommend Linux any longer. on Windows 10's Privacy Policy: the New Normal? · · Score: 0

    That's terrible. Enjoy Windows 10!

  5. Re:Debian Stretch Vunerable on Mozilla Issues Fix For Firefox Zero-Day Bug · · Score: 1

    I didn't think so.

  6. Re:Debian Stretch Vunerable on Mozilla Issues Fix For Firefox Zero-Day Bug · · Score: 1

    Care to expand on that?

  7. Oracle on U.K. Government Seeking To End Reliance On Oracle · · Score: 1

    More like Boracle. Amirite?!!

  8. Re:logs? on How Boing Boing Handled an FBI Subpoena Over Its Tor Exit Node · · Score: 1

    That was covered. In the summary, no less.

  9. Re: $9 billion dollar project? on DoD Ditches Open Source Medical Records System In $4.3B Contract · · Score: 1

    In NC, the "storage floor" for all the backlogged records is sagging, threatening to collapse. Paper is not going to work.

  10. Re:Niggers on Hitchhiking Robot's Cross-Country Trip Ends In Philadelphia · · Score: 1

    Damaging what amounts to someone's garbage is a crime?

  11. Re:Why build one on Epic Mega Bridge To Connect America With Russia Gets Closer To Reality · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Uhhhh, no. He went with it. Whoosh?

  12. Re:RAID driver available for Windows 7 unsupported on A Naysayer's Take On Windows 10: Potential Privacy Mess, and Worse · · Score: 1

    That's terrible. But it's exactly the kind of thing you can expect from upgrading a production machine to a wholly new OS without taking, it would seem, even the most basic of preventative precautions. What you did was extremely foolish, and there are lessons to be learned.

  13. Re:"...the same as trespassing." on Kentucky Man Arrested After Shooting Down Drone · · Score: 1

    The person you're shooting at needs to be on your property - it's what the "castle" part refers to. I know guns are hard, along with understanding laws. Please try to keep up.

  14. Some are age restricted, requiring you to sign in to view them.

  15. Re:Drama is coming. on New Facebook Video Controls Let You Limit Viewing By Gender and Age · · Score: 1

    No. No it's not.

  16. Re:Any professional tools available? on Bug Exposes OpenSSH Servers To Brute-Force Password Guessing Attacks · · Score: 4, Insightful

    I'd recommend a decent admin. An admin who, having to leave password authentication enabled for whatever reason, fails to secure his machines with good passwords (which is what this bug exploits) isn't competent to administer such "mission critical" hardware.

  17. Re:All Fake on New Horizons Returns Best Images of Pluto's Moons Hydra and Nix · · Score: 1

    It's a pretty threadbare joke. It's also redundant.

  18. It's artisinal!

  19. Re:You have got to be kidding me on Interviews: Ask Brianna Wu a Question · · Score: 1

    Ween!

  20. Re:You have got to be kidding me on Interviews: Ask Brianna Wu a Question · · Score: 0

    Trans-genre?! Christ, what's next?!

  21. Re: Don't worry about it on Encryption Rights Community: Protecting Our Rights To Strongly Encrypt · · Score: 1

    Sorry, misread SSL!

  22. Re: Don't worry about it on Encryption Rights Community: Protecting Our Rights To Strongly Encrypt · · Score: 1

    I'm certain ssh would fall under any ban; RSA and the others would be specifically targeted.

  23. Re:If you're not doing anything wrong... on Snoopers' Charter Could Mean Trouble For UK Users of Encryption-Capable Apps · · Score: 1

    Whoosh.

  24. Whoosh. I think.

  25. Wait a minute... on Where Facebook Stores 900 Million New Photos Per Day · · Score: 1

    Didn't we see a story about this last year?
