You might want to look up your history a bit... Lee Harvey Oswald was shot and killed 2 days after he shot Kennedy while in police custody in Dallas... he never made it anywhere near Russia...
They didn't deny extradition. They said we don't do any sort of thing like that in the transit lounge because we don't consider those people to be in our country, so its not under our jurisdiction. They simply said thats a no fly zone for any sort of activity, and we expect others to do the same in their transit lounges.
That changes the instant he left that tight little area and stepped on to 'Russian soil' so to speak.
HE stole and released all sorts of documents. Some showing bad things the NSA was doing, but many just showing the NSA doing their job and containing information that ruined all sorts of operations.
You can't trust that he won't do the same again. Sure, he might find and tell people about something one of your accountants was doing wrong... but thats only by accident and in the process, he'll have told the world your business strategy for the next 3 years.
Snowden is bad. He's the definition of traitor. If you support him, you're just an ignorant tool.
He didn't release documents describing the NSA spying on its own people. He's a traitor who released any and all documents he could get his hands on, just like Bradley Manning. The newspapers and reporters are the ones who zeroed in on the NSA spying on its own citizens and made sure you heard about it first. They actually looked for BAD things that were going on, and didn't just throw everything out there.
If Snowden only released documents about spying on Americans, then you'd have something to work with, but he did no such thing. He dumped it all, including operations information that is most certainly well within the NSAs purview. Spying on Merkel? Guess what, ITS THEIR JOB TO DO SO.
He's not a whistle blower, he's an attention whore. The reporters that went through these documents and found the information about spying on American citizens are doing the right thing. Dumping info about the NSA spying on other countries... thats treason. If you didn't know the NSA was spying on other countries, your a moron, its their job to do just that. He never should have published ANY of that sort of shit.
Being a whistleblower is different than stealing a bunch of documents, regardless of what they say and publishing them for all to see.
Sorry you're such a fanboy of his, but he's a douche bag traitor. Deal with it.
Accusing Russia at this point of a few malware USB sticks without presenting any hard evidence is really just lame and shows how desperate they are to divert media attention off their own despicable actions (i.e. spying for industrial and economic espionage purposes, G20 has nothing to do with terrorism).
Not nearly as lame as pretending Russia doesn't do it.
Here's a hint guys... our spy agencies... SPY ON PEOPLE, ITS THEIR FUCKING JOB. Why the fuck do you guys act surprised or outraged? This has been going on for thousands of years, you're an idiot if Snowden has told you something you didn't know before.
You should be pissed that the NSA is spying on Americans. But you should be more pissed if they weren't spying on leaders of other countries. That is their charter. EVERYONE KNOW IT except apparently a bunch of moron wanna be geeks who seem to be shocked that our spy organization spy on people.
You're perfectly free to setup your own 0 cost CA. Of course, running a CA does in fact cost money, so you'd have to be throwing money away to do so, but hey, its certainly possible.
If the envelope isn't in the clear, the message can't be routed. There are certain bits that have to be visible in order for things to work. If my mail server can't read the envelop, it can't direct the mail to anyone.
Seriously, if you think we need some new email encryption system, you haven't bothered to look at whats already available.
I for the life of me have no fucking clue why Lavabit or anyone else should have encryption keys that would allow them to give the NSA access to my encrypted email. They are doing it wrong.
SMIME solves the problem from the start, just like PGP but without the retarded 'build your own web of trust' crap.
This, ladies and gentlemen, is why we don't get any kind of respect in management. Because that's what they see in us: The computerized equivalent of plumbers and bricklayers. The fact that they couldn't wrap their feeble minds around a tenth of what we have to understand intimately doesn't matter. What matters is that we're notoriously bad at marketing. Self-marketing, too.
You (and me) aren't really any different than a plumber or mechanic. Programming isn't really all the different than working on cars.
You'll never get any respect because you keep acting like you're more important than you actually are. Programmers are a dime a dozen, if you visit India, you get a 100 for a buck. There are VERY few programmers who are special. Most are absolutely shitty, but non-techies don't realize it, they do realize that these programmers are arrogant pricks however.
Its mind boggling that you think for some reason what you do is special even though millions of others are just as capable of doing it as you are.
People who had a crummy adolescence for the reasons you're stating aren't really that smart. If they were, they would have had a much better adolescence.
Just because someone can use a PC doesn't make them smart, if you can't deal with people, they're probably not nearly as smart as they think they are.
You do realize every time you do something like call people 'tea baggers' you make yourself look like a douche to everyone around you, right? What you find cute and clever, most of the rest of us equate to an ignorant 12 year old who doesn't have any clue what he's talking about.
Far too many people treat science like a religion. If a scientist says it, it must be true, which ironically is the exact opposite of science. As has already been pointed out, all science can do is tell you something DOESN'T work that way. Instead what happens is people latch on to stupid things as if its carved in stone, regardless of how many times over the years it gets proved to be untrue or not entirely correct, they'll latch on to current theory and treat it as if its a law, and won't even blink an eye when the current theory turns out to be wrong and needs modified, the next time around... mysteriously, it can't be wrong now!!@%!
People who treat science like a religion are just as bad as religious nut jobs, arguably worse since at least the religious nut job is aware that they are basing their thoughts on faith rather than proof.
Ironically, you're pretty much pulling a Derp Derp Derp yourself by ignoring scientific facts... like climate cycles. The point of a study about those changes would probably be to... determine what causes those changes, don't you think?
Why is it AGW fanboys get so upset about someone just doing research to try and disprove their theories. If you're so sure you are right, why are you concerned with what this study might result in.
Great service? Are you fucking kidding? They allow businesses to masquerade as Amazon, but sell you shit from some other random fuck and they do their best to hide it, they do everything the can to avoid paying taxes until it benefits them and hurts others to do so.
Amazon is an absolutely shitty company and if you had half a clue you wouldn't deal with them at all. Bezos is a fucking pig that needs to be shot in the knee caps and left to suffer for the damage he's doing to the nation.
Stop being such a short sighted selfish fuck, there is nothing good about Amazon.
How are you unintentionally clicking your mouse on the window border while trying to select text? Just hovering over it doesn't do it, just dragging over it doesn't do it... not sure what your problem is but you have to actually click the border to drag it. Clicking in the window then dragging over the border doesn't do anything.
Then you probably have a corrupted mail database. I've experienced the same thing, fortunately, its IMAP so wiping out the mail configuration and recreating it was fairly painless and the problem went away. I've assumed thats due to the fact that I use the beta versions, which of course have bugs.

Ferris Buellers day off was a shitty movie, you just didn't know any better then. Had you not been drooling over Sloan you would have recognized it.

The root certs do nothing to fuck up SMIME, having own the root CA still won't help you get into my mail if I use SMIME
So ... SMIME then ...

IPSec was an international effort ...
They both use Chrome.

No.
Macroscopic means you can see it with the naked eye. The mass used in accelerators is microscopic and not visible to the naked eye.
we know that AGW will result in widespread suffering and death if left unchecked
No, you don't. Thats a theory, not a fact. If you think you 'know' this, you're just another religion.
The world has in fact been hotter, and colder and we still exist.
Ironically, you're pretty much pulling a Derp Derp Derp yourself by ignoring scientific facts ... like climate cycles. The point of a study about those changes would probably be to ... determine what causes those changes, don't you think?

You do realize that Mahatma is not the only Gandhi right? And that Gandhi is a rather common last name in India .... right?
That is utter crap. Solar panel manufacturing is not that profitable, if it was why is BP winding down its solar division:
Because petroleum is far more profitable and a better way for them to make money ... and solar will still be there when the oil runs out.

Best cross platform .... Linux only ...
What exactly are we describing as cross platform and what exact shitty software won't work on one Linux box versus the next?
