    It BEGETS the question.

  4. Security begins at home on DARPA Seeks Input On Securing Networks Against Attackers · · Score: 0

    I can't believe this silly disclaimer DARPA has on their site. Read it carefully. They're doing it wrong.

  5. How do I delete my /. account? on Bejeweled Yields Cognitive Benefit In Older Adults · · Score: 1

    The total crap stories like this over the past few weeks has convinced me this place has jumped the shark, with a shark on a shark.

  6. The Day That Slashdot Died on Boost Your Wi-Fi Signal Using Only a Beer Can · · Score: 1

    A long, long time ago...
    I can still remember
    How that tech news used to make me smile.
    And I knew if I had my chance
    That I could make those geeknerds dance
    And, maybe, theyâ(TM)d be happy for a while.

  7. Re:I assume. on Hidden Wi-Fi Diagnostics Application In OS X Lion · · Score: 1

    If you were more nice, perhaps you could use your real name without fear.

  8. Re:Who cares? Sounds like you do. on Hidden Wi-Fi Diagnostics Application In OS X Lion · · Score: 0

    This is the lamest insult I have ever seen on /., and my UID is much lower than yours.

    That was also an insult. :)

    You mean a map with targets like this one?

    Democratic Leadership Committee 2004.

    And they STILL haven't taken it down. For shame!

  10. Re:Too bad on Obama Admin Wants Hackers Charged As Mobsters · · Score: 1

    Kinda different if someone was calling for Romney et al to 'take Obama out', too. Well worth a visit from the feds, IMHO.

  11. Maybe Autodesk will be more responsive... on Autodesk + Instructables: For Makers? · · Score: 1

    Feynman was repairing radios and getting paid for it when he was a little boy [his words].

  17. Al Jazeera has been available in the US for YEARS on DailyMotion Now Streaming Live News · · Score: 2

    It's on the Internet, though, and I know most slashdotters don't use that much.

    Also on youtube.

    The ./ editors must be getting kickbacks from that beat.tv blog and dailymotion to run such a lame story.

  18. Re:ah, the joys of false equivalency on US Has Secret Tools To Force Internet On Dictatorships · · Score: 1

    >is it your position that people travelling internationally should have no protection from unwarranted months-long seizure of anything they're carrying?

    It's not MY position, it's the reality of thousands of years of law.

    You actually think you can cross an international border and not get searched, or have anything at all seized? What planet do you live on?

    Again, it is a LIE that anything was seized illegally. A LIE.

    Hey, AC, you mean THIS?

    >On November 3, 2010, Department of Homeland Security agents at O'Hare International Airport detained for questioning Mr. David House, a computer programmer and U.S. citizen who lives in Cambridge, Mass., upon his return from a trip to Mexico.

    He was NOT visiting Bradley Manning in prison, he was crossing an international border, and there are NO 4th Amendment protections there.

    You need to read your own links so you don't get called out on your errors. Oh right, you're an AC, no one can pin this on you.

    >Shortly afterwords, when this friend went back for another visit, most of what he took with him, including his laptop, was seized.

    You made this up, dude. But spies need liars to support them, I guess.

    Oh, and see the lone review there, the teacher faked the experimental results.

    THIS is the problem, not some tests that you WOULD do well on if you learned the material.

    >The US Federal Government has no authority to levy that kind of tax.

    100 years of SCOTUS rulings on the Interstate Commerce Clause say they do.

    >Any effort to enforce this should be fought.

    Which is what Tea Party / conservatives are doing w/r/t mandatory health insurance, which Congress claimed falls under the ICC.

    This NSApple guy is in favor of something that will destroy Free Software. Apple is just behind ExxonMobil in market cap at $300 billion.

    Who will win, FSF or AAPL?
