    Well with a little luck in the election (or a sniper's bullet...) Bush's rein of terror should soon be over.

    Space is not a 100% true vaccuum.
    True, but that doesn't mean its dense enough to transmit sound.

    Yes you do, or at least some sort of medium... water or what not.
    You were getting the sound from an unusual source. But what you heard was still being caused by vibrations in air.
    Also, dozens of miles away? What planet do you live on :P
    Here on Earth the atmosphere goes up quite a bit more then that ;)

    I'm going to have to agree with you, I never found her all that good looking.
    The first one she looked ok, but with the 2 new ones... time has not been good to her.

    Your right it possable to keep your data very secure. (still not perfect because all it requires is time, even if its millions of years....)
    But your computer system is still stealable.

  13. Re:Security is a process not a state on Gates: 'You don't need perfect code' for Security · · Score: 0

    No I was referring too different things.
    I was saying the first time that by simply unplugging you computer you could make it secure from a computing stand point.
    You can't very well hack something thats not even on the internet, or even on at all can you.
    What I was saying above is that there is nothing from a computing stand point that you can do to stop physical crimes against your computer.

    I can't tell if you know this from your response, but a Mac-10 is a type of submachine gun.
    Your talking more about social engineering rather then actual physical crime.
    I was saying there's nothing you can do from a programming stand point that will stop someone from simply stealing your computer.
    You would need armed guards and double locking doors and physical deterrents to stop that. Things which as I was saying neither Microsoft or any other programmer can do anything about.

  16. Re:Security is a process not a state on Gates: 'You don't need perfect code' for Security · · Score: 0

    Well I was refering to computer security.
    Nothing microsoft or any other programer can do is going to be able to stop me if I grab pair of mac-10s and just go after their physical computer, so theres no real point in talking about it.
    And I wasn't trolling, I was being cute :P

    There is no such thing as being secure.

    Well if you unplug the power from your computer that makes it pretty secure.

    Actually fox probably has salaried lawyers so they'd be payed whether or not their doing anything at all.
    May have just been a big giant ploy to keep their lawyers busy.

    Your right, all the RIAA cares about is money.
    But thats all anyone cares about, if your average downloader didn't care about money they would just go out and buy it.

    And what exactly would you have them do?
    The fact is your braking the law and the RIAA is well within its rights to sue you.
    The only thing they can do to help you is make it legal to share music.
    But that will never happen, not because they are puppets of the corperations, but because artists have rights too.
