  1. Re:I doubt the Sony connection on EVE Online Targeted By LulzSec · · Score: 1

    If it were a 0day, why would they DoS these websites instead of simply taking data like they did before?

  2. I doubt the Sony connection on EVE Online Targeted By LulzSec · · Score: 3, Insightful

    It seems like LulzSec just targets anyone that will get them attention, not just those affiliated with Sony. As the members get caught, I'm very interested in seeing how their "we do it for the lulz" defense plays out in court.

  3. Re:Gross stupidity on PSN Up, And Then Down Again · · Score: 5, Informative

    The Japanese PSN isn't up because the Japanese government isn't letting them put it back up until they can demonstrate they've properly secured it.

    I really hope you're joking and didn't completely miss the joke.

  5. Re:"speculative at best..." on WebGL Flaw Leaves GPU Exposed To Hackers · · Score: 1

    Except WebGL comes from Khronos Group. Ya know, the same guys that brought us OpenGL. Mozilla is part of the founding body, but you can't say it originated from them.

    And my E4500+HD5770 runs the video and the "blow up" completely smooth. So... I guess it's mainly a GPU thing?

    Why did you use an acronym, just to explain it right afterward?

  8. Analogies are great on Can't Get a Real Girlfriend? Get a "Cloud" Girlfriend · · Score: 1

    Sounds like a prostitute to me; It's not really yours and you don't know who else you're sharing it with.

  9. Re:Prior art? on Self-Wiping Hard Drives From Toshiba · · Score: 1

    Couldn't! My kingdom! My kingdom! My kingdom for an edit! Or to pay more attention to previews...

  10. Prior art? on Self-Wiping Hard Drives From Toshiba · · Score: 1

    Is Hitachi going to sue over infringement of there own self wiping tech included in the Deskstar series? It had the added benefit of wiping it randomly so even you could snoop on your data, though.

  11. Re:This is not news... on 'Zodiac Island' Makers Say ISP Worker Wiped an Entire Season · · Score: 1

    Except it was first reported yesterday morning.

  12. Re:Improved tablets on MS Global Strategy Chief: Tablets Are a Fad · · Score: 1

    That's a great point. Personally, I would only want a physical connection in so much as it holds the tablet upright, not necessarily electrically connected.

  13. Re:why... on Facebook Acquires Feature Phone App Maker Snaptu · · Score: 1

    Because it had no comments.

  14. Re:It's dicks, all the way down... on Tofu Activists Spoof Meat-Based Indie Game · · Score: 1

    I think they're troll marketing campaign was ingenious.

  15. Re:What does eating meat add to you? on Tofu Activists Spoof Meat-Based Indie Game · · Score: 1

    If you decide to be a veggie, make sure that you take many vitamin supplements.

    Not really. The misconception that you need meat to get all of your vitamins and nutrients is quite off. Everything you need can be found from non-animal sources. It just requires one to eat more than lettuce and tofu. I have a vegan friend that takes no supplements and is healthier than most anyone else I know. She also doesn't harp on meat-eaters and even cooks non-flesh products for others occasionally.

    There's a snowball's chance in hell of any significant announcement...

  17. Re:Please please please on Curious NASA Pre-Announcement · · Score: 1

    Do you want to call an evolution-controlling, star-forming monolith late? Because they'll turn you into primordial soup faster than you can say "Arthur C. Clarke was right!"

  18. Re:The right question on The Ascendancy of .co · · Score: 1

    Umm... Yes. Why treat DNS any different than real estate? It is a digital form of real estate. If someone wants to buy land at an exorbitant price and not bother to check if it's even what they want, why is it the fault of the system? GoDaddy is being shady, sure, but it's not some kind of fundamental flaw because we let people commercialize domain registration.

    I live in the suburbs of Detroit and I can tell you all of the land in Detroit IS in use.

    Really? Because it's been on every PC I've used since my IBM Aptiva in 1998...

  21. Re:What happens if the OS does run? on Swedes Show Intel Sandy Bridge Running BIOS-Successor UEFI · · Score: 1

    On a PC, you hold down a function key during boot and you'll get a boot list. One step more than a Mac, but negligible in difference. No fiddling with anything in either case, unless you count selecting from a list as fiddling.

  22. Re:What happens if the OS does run? on Swedes Show Intel Sandy Bridge Running BIOS-Successor UEFI · · Score: 1

    You can boot off USB with a PC. That's how I installed Vista and Win7. And several flavors of Linux. It's a very well supported feature on just about any motherboard that's under 6 years old, I would say.

  23. Re:What happens if the OS does run? on Swedes Show Intel Sandy Bridge Running BIOS-Successor UEFI · · Score: 1

    About Apple creating their hardware... They don't. All of their parts are pretty much normal hardware. Intel CPUs with Intel chipsets using normal RAM and hard drives. The case is about the only thing they probably design themselves, and even that is probably produced somewhere else. iPhones? Foxconn. Though that may be changing soon... A4 CPUs? I don't think Apple has a CPU fab quite yet.

    Why would someone in a professional support position be buying replacement parts from eBay? Doesn't sound very... professional.

    What makes you think these exploits are worth more on the "black market?"
