    this article, this posting, or the comments regarding them

    it's hard to choose

  5. Number of Solutions on Flaw Found in VPN Crypto Security · · Score: 1

    The NISCC includes a number of solutions to this issue in its advisory.

    Solutions:

    • (1) ignore this hyped warning
    • (2) use all possible security layers of IPSec
    • (3) don't use IPSec at all, if you are worried from this message your obviously not very secure to begin with
  6. Idle hands on Apple Developing Two-Button Mouse · · Score: 1

    Come on, are you serious? You would need to keep your mouse in constant motion while doing things like:
    - thinking
    - talking on the phone
    - going to the bathroom
    - reading /.

    not to mention what you would do while webbing through p0rn

  7. D&D outcasts on Colorizing Images and Video by Scribbling · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    So that's what happend to the gamers that were booted from the Israeli Army (http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=05/03/09/16222 15&tid=133)

  8. Re:Java on IE Vulnerable to Cross-Browser Spyware Attack · · Score: 1

    It's always the damn user... wait a minute, the USER is the virus that must be wiped out. EXTERMINATE!

  9. Isn't there a policy... on Israeli Army Frowns on D&D · · Score: 1

    of don't ask don't tell!

  10. Re:Nothing to see here, move along on TDA (Tactile Digital Assistant) the new PDA? · · Score: 1

    I threw away my stylus years ago and have used only my fingers on my iPAQ, does that give me prior-art?

  14. Re:And as a followup... on FBI E-Mail Server Breached · · Score: 1

    We use these accounts... view internet sites,

    Great, now someone is using tax payer funded accounts to view www.sexyvixens.com (just a made up site... I think)

  15. Re:FOUO on U.S. Army Guide to Code Breaking · · Score: 1

    To who? Released to which public? Give me a break and back up your statements! If this particular version of the document was "released to the public" it wouldn't have been marked FOUO.

  16. Re:FOUO on U.S. Army Guide to Code Breaking · · Score: 1

    You are correct (thanks for the clarification), though my initial point still stands regarding its distribution.

  17. FOUO on U.S. Army Guide to Code Breaking · · Score: 1, Interesting

    Just for anyone who cares, this document is marked for official use only (FOUO) which means it contains sensitive material that should not be passed around (especially on /.). Though this is one of the lowest forms of classifications, it is still a classified document.

  18. Darker and Grittier on New Battlestar Galactica Series Starts Tonight · · Score: 4, Funny

    "the new series is darker and grittier than the original"

    is that really saying much? Mary Poppins is darker and grittier than the original series also.

  19. Communist Statement on Pre-802.11n Offers 4x the Speed · · Score: 0, Troll

    Sir (or madam), your statement is blatently unpatriotic. Don't you realize that the good of this country relies on continued revenue gained from such uselessly wasteful devices that CONSUME all resources for no real gain (to the average user that insists he must have this).

    Don't make me sick the Patriotic Act on your a$$.

  20. Another Article on Open Source a National Security Threat · · Score: 1

    Linux for Embedded Systems? is another more detailed "investigation" into using Linux for embedded environments. The article is written for the COTS Journal by another Green Hills Software Croonie. The ironic thing is that GHS was creating an adaptation layer for Linux to run under their RTOS (Integrity).

  21. The question is... on McDonald's and Sony Offer Music Downloads · · Score: 2, Funny

    what size server farm will be able to live up to their "Over a Billion Served" claim.

  22. Tattoo too on Can Cell Phones Ignite Gasoline Vapors? · · Score: 1

    The scary part about this joke is that someone actually thinks that pacemakers are made with on/off switches... I guess they come with a tattoo over the switch:

    "please turn off when not needed to conserve energy"

  23. Equivalent to console scenario on Turn Your New Opteron Into A One-Game Console · · Score: 1

    Since it is a bootable CD, how are you changing your system into anything? You hard disk can still contain your usual OS / apps.

    Also, it would seem to be the equivalent to a console game having to reboot on new game insertion (everytime you put in a new CD ROM).

  24. Life is good... on Doctor Who Comeback · · Score: 1

    again.

  25. Re:Spelling on Two Books On Red Hat 9 · · Score: 1

    Considering the outrageously long identifier names in the Java libraries, you would think that the Java coders should be great spellers... of course, their programming abilities would still be lacking at best.
