  1. privileges on Ask Slashdot: Protecting Home Computers From Guests? · · Score: 3, Informative

    Create an account that does not have the ability to change the operating system, a "user" account for your friends. It won't prevent all problems, but it does cut down on the ability of malware to corrupt you system outside that user's folder.

  2. Aldiss first novel: "Non-Stop" or "Starship" on Ask Slashdot: Good, Forgotten Fantasy & Science Fiction Novels? · · Score: 1

    Let's not forget Brian Aldiss' first novel from 1958, which I knew as "Starship." I can think of at least 2 TV series and one pen and paper RPG that were based on it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-Stop_(novel)

  3. Consider the source on Chinese Propaganda Accidentally Reveals Cyberwar · · Score: 0

    Remember folks, Epoch Times is a Falun Gong house organ.

  4. Re:So he taunted... why difference does it make? on Physicist Calculates Trajectory of Tiger At SF Zoo · · Score: 1

    Actually, there has been no evidence that anyone was taunting the tiger. The Zoo stated that they believed that the tiger *may* have been taunted, but there has been no evidence or conclusive statements made to support that position. More likely, the zoo put this idea forward to diminish the public's perception of the Zoo's negligence in this man's death. I would like to see a link to prove me wrong.

  5. not as young as I used to be on Adults Love Video Games · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I find that the hangovers from games are much less severe than the drug/substance hangovers I used to get in college.

  6. Re:My rates. . . on Tech Support Businesses on the Rise · · Score: 1

    You undercharge. My going rate is $50 an hour, and it looks like I am a bargain given the rates quoted in this article.
