    Sure... it's a package manager for Debian.

    You could argue that, but you'd be laughed at since Darwin (OS/X) along with a majority of the daemons (sorry Windows guys, services) aren't closed source.
    Careful :)

    we're not talking about using XP boxen as routers (networking your pc to an XP-box?), we're talking about innocent bystanders who have been infected by a rootkit.
    Of course you knew this, you're just being a douche.

    So you want a computer connected to your tv, essentially.

    I agree here, the ARM processor has excelled nicely in this arena.
    Well, this arena along with cell phones.

    Your view of garbage is quite skewed, my friend. It works fine for me...
    My bluray player does everything that Roku does, which is sad. (except for fox news, ufc, and cnet which I never cared about)
    There's one major upside to Apple TV: I have every movie I own streamable to every tv in my house.
    No, they aren't purchased through iTunes (a positive...), and they are in HD quality converted to Apple TV format and placed into iTunes on a centralized app server in the house.

    translation: not everyone wants what you do, so it's garbage for you.

    You know Apple owns Microsoft, and just keep them around as a separate entity to keep antitrust lawsuits at bay.

    Let's go the other routes with it then...

    most windows users don't know how to use it beyond the buttons already there.
    Most car drivers are horrid, since more than 25% are multitasking behind the wheel and have a response time worse than a drunken driver.
    Most Americans are uninformed obese cave dwellers that have two locations in life: work and home

    there... you see why the whole "haha, some do it so they're all like that!!@!@" mentality is silly?

    Before it's said, there will be no "I smoke pot because it's better than alcohol behind the wheel and it cures my cancer!@", nor "you're an apple user, shut up"

    Normal consumers are already stupid, now imagine consumers who buy stuffs based on hype and look instead of actual performance.

    It worked for over a thousand years with the Byzantine empire... it worked for the US until the 60's...
    If the dollar was backed by gold, then GOLD wouldn't gain value against the dollar, and become a possible alternative currency.
    It also would mean that unless other currencies were backed by gold, the dollar would increase in value in direct proportion to gold's value against foreign currencies.

  23. Re:The cloud is secure - if treated correctly on Open Source Alternative To Dropbox? · · Score: 1

    A public pastebin is just as secure IF USED CORRECTLY (i.e., encrypting data before sending to Dropbox). Do you have evidence that contradicts that statement?

    I guess if you do the security for them, then it's secure :P

    which ultimately makes the answer null and void.

    While I agree fully (hey, I was part of the old era of the different layers of hacking, most of us probably (hopefully?) were...)... I'm only worried about another revamp of the near totalitarian political shift that occurred back then due to the "anarchy". That word was dolled out so much it was pathetic and meaningless.

    The day we have to worry about the FBI tracking us down for downloading the wrong thing, or transferring the wrong kind of encryption across country lines is a sad day again... wait, what's that? It's still that way? The FBI has been too worried about what? Stuff in people's shoes on planes? At least there's a slight distraction for the gestapo the last 10 or so years...
