I predict that the results will be along the lines that there are some short comings in the responses but overall the results were good enough for most things. Those that conducted the test will be more then happy to assist the targeted agencies shoring up their weak points and improving training for exorbitant prices.
'Competitive prices' often means 'Pretty much the same as everyone else in the area.' AT&T and Verizon call their rates competitive, even though they're pretty much exactly the same in every market as one another.
Ya, VbV is bullshit, but it would be nice if TFA could link to it's sources it lists as citations instead of financial%20cryptography%20and%20data%20security/
Not that I want to lead any credibility to the article, I also don't really believe the conversation took place, but is it really so hard to believe that in a country where the major export is a 419 scam that gangs wouldn't be asking schools for the names of students who are excelling in English?
You're laughing at what might be the most believable claim in the whole thing.
fsn is incredibly handy to visualize your filesystem with a quick glance. Height indicated the size of a file or directory and colour indicated the age of that node. For what they did with it in the movie it was slower, but for many things it could be handy.
I also would like to say that I giggled at the phrase 'Jurassic xterms.'
Off the top of my head, and pretty much pulled out of my ass:
The FreeBSD kernel can be faster the Linux, but there are a lot of poorly written apps that think they absolutely must run on Linux or were written expecting GNUisms. Now you can do that.
FreeBSD is generally the more generic and performance driven of the BSD's with a larger developer base then the othe BSD's. The odds for very good performance and good hardware support are in FreeBSD's favor over Open or Net.
Porting apps to different platforms can have the advantage of opening or exaggerating new or difficult bugs in software, the end result being that everyone gets a better final product out of it.
Well you're missing that 90% of Canada's population lives within 300 miles of the US boarder. So they didn't have to (finally) upgrade their network over all of Canada. I also doubt that they rolled it out to ever part of the small part of Canada they have to either.
Only morons trust any version number as an indicator of stability. Testing Windows 7 release candidates indicated it was good for deployment on release day for a good number of people and businesses. You probably need to stop hanging out with geek squad 'techies.'
People still expect privacy, even Facebook/MySpace/whatever users. They just suffer from two things, an assumption that the Social Media outlets act in a responsible way keeping the information they submit confidential and a general misunderstanding that putting information on the Internet without any controls now makes that private information very public.
People friend their friends on Facebook and blab about whatever as they would if they were talking to this person directly in a private context. They don't see that they have submitted the information where it is viewable and searchable by everyone and is being recorded and analyzed by the company for later sale as statistics. This is an indication of technology moving faster then the average person keeps up with, not that everyone is suddenly ok with being monitored.
Some firm draws up a press release that they're going to drop the bomb on every piece of software they could get their hands on that is used everywhere in the world for one thing or another.
Now will someone tell me why I should trust someone to tell a business person how to do the IT Risk Management who worked at a bank whose major failing was in Risk Management.
Well, intelligent people will probably realize that the Chief Information Security Officer and her subordinates probably didn't have much say in how the investment arm of the bank did business.
Enron's accountants obviously failed at applying ethics, I don't see Bear Stearns failing because the IT group(s) failed to accurately or sufficiently measure and protect their assets. Would you not hire or work with someone from one of these failed banks IT groups because the bank failed, holding that up as some indicator that this person couldn't possibly know what they're doing?

Wasn't there a Star Trek: TNG episode where they did this? Remember how everyone who wasn't engineered was dying?
Na, that'll never happen.
Get it right, you can sue for OVER 9000! dollars.
For the same reason we're supposed to care what celebrities think about foreign policy and medical procedures.
It's just more evidence of societies celebrity worship.
I first read the title as Duke Remake.

Political affiliation is totally what I'd be thinking about here too.
And that drunk communist on the steps of the Reichstag proves the communists were trying to destroy Germany.

Hi, you got trolled.
It is when you want security updates from Apple.

Finally, of course, why not?
Bits are not a measure of power.
I have a Sun Ultra 10 (300MHz UltraSPARCIIi) and a MacBook (1.85 GHz CoreDuo), guess which one is more 'powerful.'
Nope, Linux can't even run a simple app that will run on every version of NT since 1993. Some OS Linux is.

Wow, thank you for that. Writing that one down now.

Does that make Slashdotting a site a Satanic ritual now?

Right, what are they selling again?
Seriously, this. How about trying something new.

IP6 (and DirectAccess) in no way require you to remove a firewall between you and the rest of the universe. NAT however, can go away.
