  2. The solution: don't use Windows on Vinton Cerf Says Carnivore Source Best Left Closed · · Score: 1
    According to the MSNBC article linked above, Carnivore runs only on Windows machines: "Carnivore is a software program that lives on a Windows-compatible computer...Once installed on a computer, it can "sniff" or "filter" all e-mail on a particular network, via a network card." According to that (this can be found in the article under "How Carnivore works"), Carnivore is simply a packet sniffer. Not only that, but it's a packet sniffer that only runs on Windows machines. So, just don't use Windows machines on your network, the FBI obviously can't figure out how to use a Unix packet sniffer, so you've nothing to worry about! ;)

    Really though, I don't see why, if it's just a packet sniffer that offloads the data to removable storage, there's such a hub-bub about it. But, I'm also thinking that, if they would bother to write software that's already out there in abundance, it must do more than just packet sniffing on a network that the computer is on.

  3. I don't think that's the point of the phrase on Information Doesn't Want To Be Free; People Want It · · Score: 2

    The way I understand it is that information has the universal quality that it is so difficult to keep wrapped up. The point is that, for one reason or another, people make that information free and that it is impossible to keep it bound and not free. I believe that is the purpose of the phrase.

    You're complaining because it was secure in not letting the average user do much because you told it to? And then you go on to say that you hope things have "improved" beyond this situation with the Paranoid msec setting? I hope not. The Paranoid msec setting is SUPPOSED to lock the system down, that's what it's supposed to do. Secondly, why didn't you just run the msec program again and switch the security levels? Quite easy to do. Consequently, I don't see what you have a problem with with that.

  9. Plastic pencils on Putting the 'Tech' back in 'Low-Tech'? · · Score: 1

    Many of today's pencils are made from plastic (I think the "lead" might be plastic too, or maybe just real low-quality graphite). They BEND, it's simply obscene. Not only that, but they don't sharpen as sharp, they're always dull, you can't make them sharp, it's absolutely horrible. And the erasers never work right either. BUT! There is no need to dismay! Dixon Ticonderoga makes high-quality pencils, that aren't plastic! They sharpen correctly, it's fantastic. So, whenever you go out to buy pencils because of the coming EMP soon to beset our homey little planet, go out and buy yourself a Dixon Ticonderoga pencils; you won't be dissappointed.

    Some interesting stuff of what the plural of "UNIX." (Article-ID: ucf-cs.379) According to the BTL Legal and Patent Division, UNIX is an adjective that describes Bell System software distributed under the license, so the plural would be "UNIX systems" extrapolated from "UNIX system" (mhtsa.134). Lou Warshawsky of General Instrument R&D suggests "Unices" (gi.113) as does someone from perdue (perdue.180). Someone from npois suggests that the plural of UNIX is "UNI (long-u,n,long-i)" (npois.293). Someone from utzoo says that, because "Unix" is an ordinary English word, it forms ordinary English plurals. "[I]t is not derived from Latin and therefore does not form -ices plurals. The plural of Unix is Unixes" (utzoo.1375).

Not only that, but that same website is claiming they own these theses, or that they're in the public domain.
