  1. roof up the deep valleys on Warming Up Mars With Greenhouse Gases · · Score: 1

    No need to teraform, just find many deep wide and long valleys, and just make a big-ass roof on em thats seethru, drop down two walls and you have a massive massive area that can be habited and plants grown.

  2. Re:I don't have $100 for an XP upgrade on MS05-039 Worm in the Wild · · Score: 1

    use VMWARE or have you not heard of virtual machines?

    learn!!!!!!!!!

    Youre lucky I didnt call you a dumb idiot MOFO

  3. Re:but... rock sucks on The Social Impact of Gaming · · Score: 1

    Well, musically rock sucks, the girls suck but thats a good thing ;) coz they are easy.

    Rock is so old hat, techno/rave 3 day parties shit all over 2hr rock concerts.

  4. GTA - training for post war apocolypse on The Social Impact of Gaming · · Score: 1

    Just wait till the US economy tanks and the currency soars of hyperinflation, oil goes to $400pb and your power grid goes out and rangers are guarding walmart/foodmart from thieves.

    GTA X 10 will be real life.

  5. Re:I had a friend that did that. Not my friend any on Retail Fraud on the Rise · · Score: 1, Interesting

    if those speakers are so PRO, then why dont they have built in protector circuits and temperature monitors to prevent overheating?

    Let me guess, made in china.

  6. Re:Oh, I see how it is on Hacking Hotels 101 · · Score: 1

    And now you know why the CIA has many agents working in hotels.

    Its to their advantage that its INSECURE so they can spy on any one.

    I wouldnt be supprised if every tv had a tiny camera built in too, at least in modern hotels that is.

    Obviously any techy in the know will not talk about this because he is being paid nice 6digits.

  7. Re:Well this sucks. on Skype's Sale As Media Feint · · Score: 1

    I agree, thats what I thought at first, you cannot trust these people, they have contacts/friends in some of the most richest inside men ever and most in the know.

    Not to mention ICQ also, probably gives the mosad 100% backdoor access to every persons convo/voice history too.

    The govt and powers at be, NEED TO and LOVE TO keep a close eye on the cerfs. Hey, they started this, 'keeping tabs' on the people in 1870s, when the pre IBM founder from NEC and friends expanded census info to do massive cross-reference database of the populace back those days. ;-)

  8. Re:As always... on Rundown on SSH Brute Force Attacks · · Score: 1

    Wow what a flaw, and the coders didnt ever think to even just send in a fixed length of data for the password regardless of the contents? ie send 128bytes no matter what the passwd length.

    Part of any crypt technique is to also HIDE the data, not just scramble it. If I crypt 8000 bytes, I dont want 8000 crypted bytes, I want perhaps say 9272, just pad it out with random data or something. FOr small stuff, hell it cant hurt to turn 40 bytes to 128 bytes.

  9. Re:Cern on Remembering Netscape and The Birth of the Web · · Score: 1

    as with all ceos and junior engineers that got rich, they have made nothing else since and may be rich still but are never going to do anything usefull in their lives....

    At least us real engineers can still claim we kept on inventing/developing cool new stuff.

    At least IE still has this in its about box

    "Based on NCSA Mosaic. NCSA Mosaic(TM); was developed at the National Center for Supercomputing Applications at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign"

    Nothing of the sort in firefox.

    Easy for her to say, what does she do to contribute to the motion? Just lie there? Some girls are so so lazy!

  11. Turn your family into a corporate on BBC In Trouble Over Free Music · · Score: 1

    Start now. turn your surname into a corporate and have all your family members on the board.

    Then your family as one will be more powerfull than any single member.

    Fight power with their own game. Private corporates based on family members can fight back.

    Though we still have to work out how to bury 500000000 lawyers at the bottom of the ocean...

  12. Re:Former SGI employees are doing quite well on SGI Faces Bankruptcy · · Score: 1

    time and time again CEOs done see this and especially the dumb ass investor/stockholders, they see if they give more cash to the ceo it does better, but its bogus, CEOs can only do so much per hour and per week on 80hrs

  13. milksux.org on Sunscreen Not So Good for You? · · Score: 1, Troll

  14. SLASH FUCKERS - wankers like .com ceos on Vehicle for Cockroaches · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Ur getting old you gone hasbeens

    When your mainstream, you try to please the masses, so you then become a has been - old fart.

    Stay relevant, become controversial constantly, never seeking the mass appeal.

    boring next move along, wonder when the next 17yo geek will outdo slash and make a new generation better 'portal'

    Thou these techy portals are nothing new, same old shit as 1989 with the amiga disc mags on 1meg with spiffy music and demo effects and 200 pages of cool info and letters and news and rumors.

  16. 2m slaves is ethical? on 100 Million Online in China · · Score: 1

    Dick fcuk, Caymanisland Drug Lord,

    Imprisonning 2m foolonggong people for their peacefull beliefs and making them work 9/10 days at 18hr shifts to make the cheap $2 tshirts for walmart is ethical?

    I hope your mexican made SUV bursts its chineese tires and crashes into the walmart truck and bursts into flames :)

  18. MS has HDTV WMV format..... on PlayStation 3 to Sell For $399, Going Underground · · Score: 1

    MS has the HDTV WMV file format... which can fit

    so they could still play hdtv movies, but yeah i kno sony owns Sony Picturees etc....

    another betamax war?

  19. CRAP , sun = 500% profits.... on Sun Announces Its First Laptop · · Score: 1

    Yeah like the Sun Sparc 10 Workstations in 1998, that in australia cost $8000, preconfiged to run at 110 volts and would blow up even though they were made in mexico, sun was too lazy to switch the dip switch to 240v even when courier delivered.

    Not only that, their monitors for their sun machines were crap, well below the el-cheepo $150 models , ie they couldnt do the same refresh/khz rates.

    #2, their HDs were 5400rpm and 9gig back then, when even 20gigs were cheap.

    So basically in 1998, the Sun10s were $1200 PCs, with a $7000 CPU.

  20. Re:firewire drives and faubackup on Best Way to Back Up Photos and Video? · · Score: 1

    isnt a back up supposed to be identical?

    why not use RSYNC, its part of every linux box and is easy to use after 10mins of reading the man page.

  21. why being 5% involved in crime gets 100% fine? on Censored Nagasaki Bomb Story Found · · Score: 1

    By your logic, any one can organize a group of people to be only 1% involved with importing cocaine into usa, yeah each one does a tiny bit , does that mean they cannot be prosecuted, oh but by the DAs own rules, if you are even remotely partly involved you get the full force of law and punishment just as equal to doing it all your self. But common LAW isnt good enough for the govt or 'men in charge' isnt it... they are above the law.

    Any hoe, USA GOVT wont allow nasa to give any $$$ to russia so if russia hasnt got the cash what do you expect? The mafia to fund it?

    OT: yes i know russia is spending billions in secret underground/mountain NORAD type cities with capacities for 50000+ people.
    Which leads me to ask why any nation really 'prepares for ww3' and still economicaly deals with the enemy? -dont trust china-
