  1. Re:Pretend you're Orson Welles, put his mother's m on DNS Hijack Leads To Bitcoin Heist · · Score: 1

    But if you use the same person's data for every site you still have the problem of a hacker being able to use the information from one of the sites to get into all of the others.

  2. Re:What word is translated "Pornography"? on EU To Vote On Proposal That Could Ban All Online Pornography · · Score: 1

    Most accidental parents made the mistake of having unprotected sex years ago, so why is it fair that they have to keep on paying for it, when their peers who didn't make that mistake don't have to? How is it fair that they weren't taught them the consequences of their action, in a way they would want to learn it? Or, if they did learn it, why weren't they given enough incentive to prevent them from having a baby if they did know and decided to do it anyway, and then make them pay for years and years afterwards, while everyone else gets off scotch free?

    It lets you specify the percentage of time you want the GPS to be on. I leave mine at around 10% and the app records a point every 5 minutes or so, and this barely drains the battery.

    A shameless plug, but check out my android app: Tiny Travel Tracker http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rareventure.gps2_trial&hl=en

    You can store your GPS path for your entire life in an encrypted database on your phone. I found it really useful for remembering things I'd otherwise have forgotten. "Oh yea, I went to *that* bar, now I remember"

    What if the customer is wearing fingerless gloves? He could hide the surgical stitch underneath the glove, but the end of the thumb would still be exposed and readable by the machine.

  11. Re:Infrastructure already exists on World's First Bitcoin ATM · · Score: 1

    Bitcoins certainly aren't easier and once you factor in all the costs and risks it's very debatable whether bitcoin is cheaper.

    Those costs and risks you're talking about aren't constant, but are constantly being reduced as more and more companies are working to build infrastructure on BTC, (hence the rise in value).

    But why are they *suckers*? Can you explain your deflationary spiral scenario as a real world example?

  13. If people didn't invest in things, no one with an idea and without money would be able to build anything. We'd still probably all be farmers if that is the case. Of course, this concept of producing something is probably so fucking foreign to you, you whiny little crybaby fuck nut, that you make up stories about how people with money are holding you down, you pathetic little piece of shit cunt fuck dick head asshole dweeb fuck wad, you fucker, you.

    This is the NINTH response I got saying that reaver works against WPS and not WPA2! Yes I know it only works against WPS! It's like an echoing chamber with a thousand parrots in here.

    I was simply replying that the assumption that "WPA2, 63 characters pwd" is all you have to worry about is untrue. Many routers come defaulted with WPS on, and some don't even have an option to turn it off, so there are other things to worry about than just WPA2 when choosing or configuring a router. God damnit!

  16. Re:Oh come on... on Ask Slashdot: Dealing With an Advanced Wi-Fi Leech? · · Score: 2

    A router that is using WPA2 with a pre-shared key may also have WPS. A lot of them don't even allow you to turn WPS off.

  17. Re:brute force 63 characters? on Ask Slashdot: Dealing With an Advanced Wi-Fi Leech? · · Score: 1, Informative

    reaver doesn't brute force the WPA2 password, it attacks WPS. If WPS is enabled on your router, and an attacker cracks that (which has around 11,000 combinations), your router will give the attacker the WPA2 password.

  18. Re:Oh come on... on Ask Slashdot: Dealing With an Advanced Wi-Fi Leech? · · Score: 1

    I just meant that "WPA2 63 character pwd" by itself is not effective without also having to disable WPS (and some routers don't even let you do that).

    I'm sure you have your doubts, but even if you made only 10% of that a week, it'd still be a good deal. Especially because it's part time. I've been hearing more and more of this, and I can't say I'm not interested. A Mercedes Benz S-class cost what, maybe $150K? It has to at least work for some people if her friend made enough to afford that. Maybe you just have to be diligent and able to put in a few hours each day. If you can do that, you'll probably do just as well as she was saying.

    If the other countries outside of the US keep patent law, wouldn't that be enough of a profit potential to still continue R&D? Why should we pay a high price for drugs when we can simply take a free ride off of the enforcement of patents filed in Europe and Canada?
