Especially the part about moving the mouse around and opening up docs every so often. I don't know where that guy worked, but an unattended desktop at my workplace is open season for your personal choice of interesting emails to management. Typically an "I Love You" to their same sex boss is usually appropriate.
Man, that was the first thing that came to mind. Scary how slashdotters think alike sometimes. In fact, sometimes it's damn scary. Is there a holder for my moloko as well?
You're smoking something. Look around on your next flight, chances are 50% of the people on that thing do NOT turn off their cell phones. The FAA and the airlines know this and don't care, because it does not make any difference. There is NO proof cell phones interfere. If they did, you wouldn't be allowed to carry them on the plane because of the above.
The problem is, their past CPUs have been known to be about 4 degrees hotter than the Sun. Maybe I want something better than what they want me to have.
Opponents of RFID tagging say the tags make it theoretically possible to "profile" a consumer remotely... But that scenario is unlikely "unless you live in a totalitarian state with a perfect information architecture"
Umm, does this cover countries other than the US? I don't know about perfect, but it's definitely totalitarian.
Okay, I have to call bullshit on this article. Maybe I'm spoiled because I have bellsouth, but those speeds are ridiculously slow. At my last house I had IFITL where they run 10 Mbps CAT5 to your door, but you really get like 3 Mbps. My new house I have regular bellsouth DSL and it runs at 1.4 Mbps all day, every day. I noticed they were not included in the study, but give me a break. If I was getting 400Kbps from my DSL someone at the phone company would be getting shot.
Yeah, and those folks have been working on card security for 10+ years and they are still weak. Good to see it's not just the US government that is pure evil.
Yes, legos are awesome. One tip tho, don't burn your kids out. I hear weekly from parents who have 1st graders that get an hour of homework every night. The parents are usually the ones up until midnight doing the homework. By the time these kids get to 6th grade they are ready to drop out. You will be surprised how much your kids will pick up when they want to, rather than when they are forced. Sure, you want to work with them and help them learn, but they don't need to understand geometry by age 5.
Welcome to the new slavery. If you are an IT worker in this economy, chances are your employer is using it to abuse you. You're not going anywhere, right? So I guess you wouldn't mind working 14 hours a day for the forseeable future.

Dude! I was eating dinner when I made the grievous error of clicking on that Tub Girl link. For God's sake man, at least warn people.
If you still have that guy for a prof tell him to put the pipe down already. Or share. Obviously he's getting the good shit.

Yeah, I mean as soon as you see 6 channel surround sound... duh...
Those sneaky bastards must have QA'd that piece of code. How can MS really compete with that?
How's this for a -1 mod point. Go to www.ip3networks.com and do it yourself.

What is the problem here?

"It's untraceable. I hate to put that in print, but it's the truth."
So, if I'm running a sniffer while they are sending email through my PC I won't be able to find the source? I musta missed something in IP 101.

Yeah, I have a similar trojan running on my machine at home. I think it starts with a K and keeps downloading all this music...
Maybe the email was really from the BOFH.
Your BBS didn't run TCP/IP? Loser...
I think it's actually the last thing to go through his mind...
"What was the cause of death?"
"Let me guess, cement poisoning?"
"Deceleration trauma."

Withdrawal before climax is very ineffective and those who try this are usually called "parents."
I don't think there's much worry about that on this board....

Probably. I'll stick to barstool racing at the old North End. I race from the barstool to the can after a pitcher or two...
But you don't look like a newt. Well, I got better...

Not to sound like a newb, but how are you doing #1? I know of a few ways, but have not tried doing that for a while.

You carry CAT5? I have found det cord works better near fluorescents, and my coworkers as well. Although 25 grain is on the small side...
