    I always wanted those mission profile sunglasses with the autodestruct. Too bad you can't throw it away 1sec before detonation...

  4. It's slashdotted... on Freenet 0.5 Released · · Score: 1

    Of course it'll be slow! Seriously, most 'errors' are just the webbrowser giving up. The first few days your node is still integrating. Just keep trying and it'll work.

  5. Solution? on New Spam Frontier: Referer Logs · · Score: 1

    Log only one hit per unique IP per $TIMEINTERVAL. If it's a small blog, log only one hit per small (16 hosts?) subnet per $TIMEINTERVAL.

  6. Re:Some Ideas... on Malicious Distributed Computing · · Score: 1

    Why restrict to single ports? Listen in rawmode, and check for some code that corresponds to the ports/ips/message contents. If it matches up, it's a message. Add a level of redundancy for dropped messages, and use random ports.

    If you do this, make a note in your journal. I'll be watching.

  9. Re:Online make menuconfig on Calling for Smaller Kernel Sources? · · Score: 1

    Set bandwith limits. Limit each IP to, say, one kernel per week. Same for email address. Require registration, with a secret number in an image so it can't be scripted. Etc.
