  9. Re:Movies for the blind on Woman Creates 3-D Erotic Book For the Blind · · Score: 1

    A lot of Blu-Ray releases have these. What comes to mind immediately are "Angels and Demons" and "Star Trek". Usually this is called "Descriptive Audio" or something similar. Here is an Australian list of the kind, I'm sure you can find something for your region as well: http://www.audiodescription.com.au/index.php?option=com_content&view=section&id=2&Itemid=21

  15. Same-color login form and text on What Examples of Security Theater Have You Encountered? · · Score: 1

    I used to work at a major telco, and as I was logging in to one of their legacy systems through a terminal, I noticed that the password field didn't show the usual **** stars, but rather stayed blank. Intrigued, I marked the text field with my mouse to see what happened, and discovered that yes, there appeared to be text there. I copied it, and there was my password in plaintext! What they had done was simply to make the password text the same color as the text field... I had a good laugh about that one.

    If you can't have a 6-hour gaming marathon on it, I don't want it.

  23. Re:Programs on Java Urban Performance Legends · · Score: 1

    Say what? I run it on a Pentium 2 / 266mhz, with plenty of CPU cycles to spare for serving files and streaming stuff to my Xbox. And that's with 30+ torrents. I'd examine my uber-1337 sysadmin skills if I were you.
