  1. Re:Minecraft on Ask Slashdot: Best Adventure Game To Start With? · · Score: 1

    I agree, Minecraft is a good choice.
    It is like the computerized version of Legos.
    and before people mention Legos online... I dont think that is a 10+ game.

  2. Re:Reminds Me of Something the Sony CEO Said ... on Has iTunes Been Hacked? · · Score: 1

    I dont think this is a "breach", it looks more like a social engineering turned trojan/keylogger.
    Dear Apple users,

    enjoy.

    now we know why she relates to the "real america" she seems to claim she is talking to all the time.
    They received the same education.

  4. Re:Is Sony now in the banking business? on A Brief Sony Password Analysis · · Score: 1

    OP point is valid.
    The only reason people know your Sony password isnt because your account at Sony was brute forced.
    Its because Sony is lackadaisical in their patching and security efforts.
    Seriously, no one brute forces anymore unless it is against an offline database that they downloaded from the site in question.

  5. Funny stuff on Pranksters Post Giant Windows Logo On Hamburg Apple Store · · Score: 0

    That is pretty funny, although they did use a screwdriver to put up the pieces.
    Vandals or not, Apple just got served

  6. Lulzsec is making companies enforce security? on Hackers Attack Nintendo, But Company Claims Data Safe · · Score: 1

    interesting. So they said "hey we can do this, you better secure your shit".
    Is this a PR move by them or are they really worried about Nintendo's security?

  7. Re:No big secret here on Wikileaks Cables Say No Bloodshed Inside Tiananmen Square · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Yeah, except for the nukes dropping.... it was on a military town, all Japanese citizens were taught to fight until the end, the full effects were not know, theorized maybe but not known, and it saved millions of lives.
    For if the Allied forces had to attack Japan with soldiers it would have been a cultural slaughter.
    Lets not forget who started the fight, and lets not forget who was given the chance to surrender.
    Dont be ignorant in your views, know the full facts before you spew your nonsense.

  8. Re:This is not a police state. on Man Ordered At Gunpoint To Hand Over Phone For Recording Cops · · Score: 1

    Right, and letting things like this go allow Police states to occur.

  9. Re:Hire a professional... on Ask Slashdot: Uses For a Small Office Server? · · Score: -1, Troll

    I agree, especially when he brings up the "worth their weight in gold" part when talking about "Apple techs".

    To the Author asking, your first problem is you bought a Mac and overspent on hardware you dont need and software you cant use.

    That is an Adam Savage quote...

    How dare yee!

  11. Re:Ignorance of net neutrality on Inside the DOJ's Domain Name Graveyard · · Score: 1, Interesting

    Are you telling me that you are perfectly fine with a government that jails violent people because they do not *like* it? What's next?
    - Jail a person because they have sold drugs
    - Jail a person because they force people to sell their bodies
    - Jail a person because they ran over someone else while drunk

    and the list goes on...

    Free porn and virused WAREZ?

  13. Re:makes you wonder on Inside the DOJ's Domain Name Graveyard · · Score: 2

    I would think botnets, spam servers, spam/malware websites (where you go to buy the crap they are peddling) would be higher on the list.
    But, I guess scamming people is a "business"...

  14. Hardcover and awesome video graphics on Linux Video Tutorials From 1995 · · Score: 2

    Ha! Those take me back. Back when we thought bezel smooth text with drop shadow was the best ever.
    Rock on you crazy hippies, rock on.
    My first HTML page had a whole bunch of line dividers. Different types, like one was a saw blade, another was a moving color animation.
    It was terrible, Im glad the internet wasnt archived as much back then.

  15. Re:Great Opertunity For Google on Google WebRTC: Can It Replace Skype? · · Score: 2

    I predict licensing fees out the ass.

  16. Re:Oh the Drivel You Will Spew on Anatomy of a Privacy Nightmare · · Score: 2

    I agree, doing nothing social is both safe and lonely.

  17. Re:like watching a twelve-year-old on Anatomy of a Privacy Nightmare · · Score: 1

    Yup, the best part was his disbelief of the "size" of the "member" in question.
    It is obviously a "foreign object".

  18. Re:The cloud has always been a cloudy concept to m on UK Government Ditches Cloud Concept, Consolidates Data Centers · · Score: 3, Insightful

    A distributed, redundant system IS "the cloud".
    So they probably realized they already had one.

  19. Re:"acts of war" on North Korea Training "Cyberwarriors" Abroad · · Score: 1

    Yeah... much like our "Y2K" problems in the 1990s.

    Could Cyber wars launch nukes?
    (Waits to see this on news stations everywhere)

  20. Re:New governement, new(old) luck on Canada Seeking Cyberspace Security Input · · Score: 1

    Also, convert everything to French. This way, no one will think you a viable threat or worthy of plundering.

  21. Re:I guess I just won't buy stuff online anymore. on California Assembly Approves Internet Tax · · Score: 1

    What businesses do you deal with on a daily basis that arent everywhere?

    Power, ISP, Banks, gas.... hell even your grocery store. If you dont like one you can go to the other, but WEIRD... they sell the same stuff.

    Your choice is an illusion.

  22. Re:I guess I just won't buy stuff online anymore. on California Assembly Approves Internet Tax · · Score: 1

    Sure, and I will give you a case that is representative of why this nulls out the actual cost
    Here in Arizona we had an actual inmate escape. The jail was run by a business.
    The business was found to have holes in its dealings.
    The business fixed these holes, but not after great expense of hunting down these criminals.
    They also looked at the bottom line and found that the companies are actually spending the same amount as our state run prisons.
    So.... what was gained here? Nothing
    What was lost? Money, and faith in our system that handles prisoners.

  24. Re:I guess I just won't buy stuff online anymore. on California Assembly Approves Internet Tax · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Yeah, and I laughed.
    Considering the history of business in the world I know for a fact that without regulation, rules, and governance those corporations will steal, poison and murder to make more money.
    So why not allow the government to do it? We have more control over them than we do businesses.

    They didnt remove news, they just created a fake news story that no one would believe.
    Now if the post was about Elvis....

    Although I agree this one was a terrible hack. It looks like some scrub that wants to gain some fame.
