  1. 15? on Essential Open Source Tools For Windows Admins · · Score: 1

    Which Linux distribution comes in 15 CDs or DVDs?

  2. Re:German policy costs at least 25000 lives/year on Siemens To Exit Nuclear Power Business · · Score: 1

    I didnt realize these plants generated power through human sacrifce. How does that work? I suppose that if you carve out someones heart and then Quetzaqual grants you a few gigajoules.

    Fraulen Muller from HR goes under name of Quetzaqual outside of office hours. If you stop those power plants, fraulen will delete 25k records from her payroll database.

  3. Re:Ahem... on Celebrate Software Freedom Today · · Score: 1

    Richard Stallman had a printer, whose code he could not see.

    More like "Xerox created printer, which could not print". Lets thank Xerox and other commercial software/hardware vendors for what they did to OSS.

  4. Re:Nope... on 5 Years In Prison For Selling Fake Cisco Gear · · Score: 1

    Not long down the road, all those Filipino maids in the rich palazzos, palaces, and chateaus will be replaced with American maids.

    Why would somebody want fat blonde, when they can get dark exotic beauty

  5. Re:Two factor, three factor on Mozilla Asks All CAs To Audit Security Systems · · Score: 1

    Stop treating self signed certificates like cancer

    In other news AIDS does not exists, USA is most peaceful country in the world and there are no American tanks in Bagdad.

    Self signed certificates are cancer. Your fingerprinting ideas won't work cause they abolish automatic verification of trustfulness, disable warnings on possible insecure situation, decentralize site verification and make verification laborious process.

    You have to identify yourself to some authorities trusted by your browser. Stop bragging about SS cert handling and accept it. Security people will never disable warning of something that tries to take some identity without verification.

  6. Re:If you ask nicely enough... on Mozilla Asks All CAs To Audit Security Systems · · Score: 1

    Removing the DEFCON 2 warnings for self signed certs will be the first step in the right direction.

    SSL is not about encryption. It is also about trust.

  7. Re:Sweet! on Google Acquires Zagat · · Score: 1

    Maybe one day the government will need to break up google also and then years later let it recombine!

    Years? Days is more likely. Cut off advertizing business and other parts will die in instant death.

  8. Cyber stalked too on TSA Groper Files Suit Against Blogger · · Score: 3, Interesting

    If they knew what woman wrote in her blog, she was not only raped. She was stalked too.

  9. Re:Self Signed Certificates on GlobalSign Suspends Issuance of SSL Certificates · · Score: 1

    Come on, browsers need to start treating self signed certificates like they are plain old HTTP, with an icon that can be used to view the fingerprint.

    Will you notice if your bank reverts to self signed certificate? Will other people notice it?

  10. Re:Learning Perl on What Is the Most Influential Programming Book? · · Score: 1

    Perl Cookbook.

  11. Sandcrawler from unreleased StarWars on Lucasfilm Unveils "Sandcrawler" Singapore Office · · Score: 1

    Sandcrawler was rusty box on tracks. Building is horseshoe shaped and sits on poles. If building looks like sandcrawler to journalist, he/she should stop smoking that stuff or pass it to others. Two or three ground floors missing. Public podium available 24/7 for bombing and you don't have to dig anything to put explosives under the building. Interesting design. I hope they don't have earthquakes or terrorists in Singapore.

  12. Re:A little late ... on Chinese Submersible Planning For Record Dive · · Score: 1

    I guess perhaps we have completely different definition of 'research' or something.

    It is about navigation at max depth. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DSV_Shinkai_6500

  14. Re:six months ago on European Firms Assisted Gaddafi's Internet Monitoring Regime · · Score: 1

    last I checked their dictator was still sitting comfy with his position

    There would be no Castro in Cuba without US and Fulgencio Batista. United States of America are not one of the America's favorites.

  17. Re:Chinese resource grab reaches new heights on Chinese Want To Capture an Asteroid · · Score: 1

    L3 is listed as being on exactly the opposite side of the sun from us, so that, again, is nowhere near the orbit of the moon. I'll leave the math as a exercise to the reader.

    Solar system has more than one set of Lagrange points. You confused Sun-Earth Lagrange points with Earth-Moon Ls.

  18. Re:Chinese resource grab reaches new heights on Chinese Want To Capture an Asteroid · · Score: 1

    First off, all of the Lagrange points are further from Earth than the moon.

    L1 is between two large masses. If one of masses is Moon, then L1 can't be futher from Earth than Moon. L3 is closer to central mass than second mass.

    incredibly bright programmers applying for that janitor position

    And when they are discovered, they leave for their girlfriend

  20. Re:Paging Darth Vader on Microsoft 'Ribbonizes' Windows 8 File Manager · · Score: 1

    For example, search for "paste"

    Why do I have to search for paste, if I know where it is? Get over your google/search-for-everything mentality and stop typing domain names in google search form.

  21. Re:...or that hate default ports... on New Worm Morto Using RDP To Infect Windows PCs · · Score: 1

    change the fracking port...

    Security through obscurity does not work.

  22. Wrong title on Neanderthal Sex Boosted Immunity In Modern Humans · · Score: 1

    Having sex does not change genes. Interbreeding does.
    Considering time when it was happening I would suspect that rape scenario is more likely.

  23. Re:Wow... on More Schools Go To 4-Day Week To Cut Costs · · Score: 1

    But there was no freaking way I could do that 5 or 7 days in a row.

    My past tells me that I was not spending 5-7 days in a row on same subject in school. Every class lasted only 45 minutes to 1.5 hour. Five-six different classes every day.
