This spring Cogent cut the peering with European network provider Telia. Not just the peering either, Cogent also blocked all packets coming from IPs withing Telia's network, even when passing through other networks. That means Cogent was degrading the peering with all other networks.
BA330 is a space station module. How is that supposed to get anyone to the moon? Dragon is little more than a concept, so why do you think it will be cheaper and better than Orion?
If you start to use computer rendered cats instead of pictures of real cats you lose the main point of kittenauth, that how a cat looks cannot really be defined. You can vary the color and angle of the cat, but spammers can defeat that just like with letters.
Sure, the scheme you describe might work better than text CAPTCHAs, but it's not unbreakable. Of course you can make more 3D models and make more complicated questions, but only creates more work for the spammers at the cost of more work for you. It becomes and arms race.
The problem is that you cannot generate pictures of kittens automatically. If you have a database of pictures an attacker can pick a few hundred of your kitten pictures manually and then have his spam-bot reload until on the known pictures comes up. A 1% success rate may me more than enough for a spammer who wants to register Gmail accounts.
I think the main problem with putting telescopes on the moon is getting them there. Landing stuff on the moon in not trivial you know. Also putting it on the moons surface only makes sense if you absolutely need to shield it from both the earth and sun. Otherwise some earth-moon or sun-earth Lagrange point would be easier.
As much as I hate the erosion of civil rights in the west, I don't see bloggers getting arrested for sedetion. Or are you saying they are secretly arrested and replaced by CIA men, so nobody notice they are gone?
Sweden has such a ban on advertisements targeted at children. Some satellite channels dodge the ban by routing via a third country and inserting the ads there, before relaying to the satellite.
Limiting the number of connections per IP will solve this. Don't various DoS protections do that already? The attack method you describe can not use fake source IPs since the attacker need to get the ACK. SYN cookies are mostly for protecting against floods of SYN packets with fake source IPs.
In my experience, even people who pride themselves in always having fact to back up their opinions usually had the opinions first and found the facts to back it up afterwards.
Is there any reason to believe SpaceX would do a better job than NASA? Other than OMG PRIVATE IS BETTER!!!!11 that is.
So far they have made a very small rocket that hasn't been able to reach orbit yet. I'm sure they will, and it's great that there is private interest in space flight. However, you can't just dump money dump a big load of cash on a small company and see moon rockets start flowing out.
It's not like NASA builds everything inhouse anyway. Most of the hardware are built by private companies and bought by NASA. Also, what's wrong with Ares exactly? Of course there are people complaining, but that doesn't mean much.
The US has satellite launch systems, just not human ones other than the shuttle. Atlas V, Delta II, Delta IV and probably some smaller ones I forgot. There are ICBMs too.
You have missed some news. The supporters of the previous prime minister won the recent election and got the power back from the military. Now it is the People's Alliance for Democracy that is revolting.
That would use too much screen space for me.
Also, you would be taken more seriously if you don't present your personal preference as some kind of universal truth.

It is launched with the small Vega rocket so IXV is probably too small for humans anyway.
Threefish is the name of the block cipher part of Skein.

The problem is: Allow each human one or a few accounts, not millions of accounts.

Works for your personal site, not for Yahoo.

It is said that a cow was killed by Skylab debris, but it might be a rumor.
As a comparison the entire Apollo program cost about 135 Billion (in 2005 Dollars).

It won't help if the whole building is collapsing, but if smaller things are falling down everywhere.

There can be Windows user level viruses too. There aren't many, because most people are running as local admin anyway.
I think the idea is that the browser can ship with ssl certificates for the notaries.
Interesting idea, but it will not work if the man-in-the-middle is hijacking the websites connection rather than the users.
The virus can install itself in the user home directory instead.
OpenDNS has drawbacks too. They redirect Google.com and all non-existent domains to their own crappy search engine.
