  2. Re:Well. on Windows Cheaper to Patch Than Open Source? · · Score: -1

    I noticed that the a few US government websites are actually scheduled to be down twice per week. Guess what operating system they use? What kind of losses do these account for?

    Even if it's cheaper to fix, that doesn't make it better. You need to also factor in a huge number of other things before you start bashing Lunix.

  4. Re:Windows that protects users on Symantec Launches Anti-Spyware Beta · · Score: -1

    When I use Windows, I use it with a Linux box handling all the connections. I do not connect directly to the internet. I let the Linux box run a homebrew software app (I run a business from my home) that strips out all ugly and yucky content. It is great for gaming, and in the year and a half I've had this setup running, I've never gotten so much as a single piece of spyware.

    God, it's comments like these that make me wish my karma on this account was good enough to afford me mod points.

  12. I have a default response to 419 on The 419eater Community Pulls Some Legs · · Score: 1, Funny

    If I read the article (or discussion rather) correctly, this guy is conning a 419-guy from "LAGOS" into paying $200 cash + $4500 cheque for "large boxes of misc garbage with a broken laptop that has "ANUS" inscribed on the screen".

    This is my form letter response to any 419 scam. Do not follow the link in it; it goes to a site with a large number of disgusting porn popups.

    THANK YOU FOR THIS OPPORTUNITY TO INVEST.

    I AM VERY GREATFUL YOU CAME TO ME FIRST, INSTEAD OF TO SOME OTHER PERSON, WHO MIGHT TRY AND STEAL MORE THAN HIS FAIR SHARE FROM YOU.

    THAT WOULD BE A TERRIBLE TRAGEDY. I WOULD LOVE TO HELP YOU AND YOUR CAUSE. MY CONTACT PROFILE IS AVAILABLE HERE: http://www.aderkach.org/?u=Ich .

    PLEASE RESPOND WHEN YOU WOULD LIKE TO MAKE THE TRANSFER.

    GOD BLESS.

  17. How to use the Line In feature: on Copy-protected CD Tops U.S. Charts · · Score: 5, Informative

    For people who don't speak Babelfish:

    Get a cable which you can plug into your CD (Note: "real Compact Discs" don't ever have DRM) playing device of choice. It should have a male port on both ends. Plug one into your microphone port, the other into your CD player. Open a device (for example, sound recorder) and click record. Hit "Play" a half second later so you don't cut off anything. After the song finishes, stop the recording, clip off parts from the beginning and end, and save as a .wav file.

    With your .wav, run it though a program for audio compression, maybe MKW audio compreesion toolkit. Then, distribute it to as many of your friends as possible.

    MKW = http://www.etree.org/mkw.html

  18. Re:Yes, fast on Baby Steps Toward Quantum Computers · · Score: -1

    Yes. The NSA can always use faster, better, expensive computers. Quantum computers are great for code breaking, and once a *really good* one is developed, most codes today won't stand a chance. Although the One Time Pad is pretty secure.

    GI Joe stole that from them, I guess. And replying to your totally unrelated note, you're the only person who I'm not going to have to tell to RTFA.
