  1. Re:What about VOIP/911 services? on FTC Recommends ISPs Disconnect Spam Zombies · · Score: 1

    If you rely on the internet for emergency calls, then you're going to notice blackouts every month anyways.

    Anyone with an ounce of intellegence will keep a land line for 911.

    Everyone knows there's no ethical rebuttal to the statement

    "I know you were at this drinking fountain first, and already drinking, but we're going to let someone interrupt you and drink."

    "Ah, you were using this pay phone? Too bad, I'm going to make you hang up and make my own call."

  3. Re:Blocking port 25 only half bad on FTC Recommends ISPs Disconnect Spam Zombies · · Score: 1

    The issue isn't with shutting out port 25, but with disconnecting people who harbor zombie PCs.

    No reason to block port 25 when the people who are abusing it can't even get online. :)

    Yes, we're all arrogant and evil people... and you're all frog eating bastards who can't win a battle. Got to love those blanket statments.

    Do you expect them to pay more for the same work just to get people with the "right" nationality or ethnicity?

    Ah, playing the race card. Always a good way to do when you don't have a valid point to make.

    The problem is not with indians getting jobs, but people who were already employed getting laid off in order to find cheaper labor outside of the country.

    Where are the "rights" of loyal employees?

  7. Re:The obvious... on BusinessWeek on Hacker Hunters · · Score: 1

    I hate this self indulgant crap.



    Mine is a world that begins with school... I'm smarter than most of the other kids, this crap they teach us bores me...


    Bores you, or you're too stupid to learn. School isn't just about math and english, it's social skills.

    Yes, I am a criminal. My crime is that of curiosity.
    No, your crime is breaking the law and attacking people who you don't know for no other reason than you're bored.

    News flash: being able to compile some script you got off IRC, using linux, or tricking someone does not make you a smart person.

  8. Re:Stupid on VoIP Providers Given 120 Days to Provide 911 Service · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Because you hear testimony from women with dead children, and news papers report on it.

    Do you really expect law makers to say "Too bad, you shouldn't have been cheap?"

    I agree with you though, in that VoIP having to provide 911 service is bogus. 911 calls are free on a land line, and I can't imagine a house (of a person worth saving ;)) that doesn't have a land line which they could have an 'emergency phone' hooked up to.

    So, please post the timecode for an example of this editing and I will go and try to confirm it on my copy tonight.

    Mmm, mmm. Smells like defensism.

    Wouldn't it be easy to just ask him what parts he remembers being removed, so you can watch it and see for yourself?

    Who the hell would waste the time to look up timecodes to appease some random guy on slashdot?

  10. Re:120 days.... on VoIP Providers Given 120 Days to Provide 911 Service · · Score: 1

    I would imagine that this isn't an issue for most people.

    The problem is that when you're calling from a residential area and have VoIP service, obviously they know your name, address, etc.

    I would imagine that everyone would be appeased by allowing police to be able to easily see who is the owner of the line.

    It's a hell of a lot better than misleading people about the limitations of VOIP, resulting in deaths

  11. Re:Space territory next? on Military Seeks Approval to Develop Space Weapons · · Score: 1

    The US is waning as a global superpower. Get over it. And we're doing everything we can to make sure this doesn't happen. Or if it does happen, a country like China doesn't replace us. Get over it.

    Don't be so arrogant and naive to think the US will willing put itself in a lesser country's position if it doesn't have to.

    What do you expect? Not many people who have access on the computers to run the tor client actually *need* tor; those that use it generally use it to get around bans.

    Probally because the new exploit out for Firefox that came out recently, as mentioned on Slashdot and many other news sites.

    Managers hear about it, and don't want it on their computers.

    And yes, I'm well aware that it's been fixed, but not many news sites have mentioned it.

    It's news to some of us.

    I can understand your problem with this article if it were a dupe from 2000, but it's not. It's new to quite a few people.

  19. Re:Missing the point on Symantec Launches Anti-Spyware Beta · · Score: 1

    This was true a few years ago, but no more.

    With XPs history for remote exploits, it's no longer an issue of "don't go where you shouldn't, and you'll be ok".

    The sad fact is, even if a user is 100% responsible there's a good chance that their system could still get compromised.

    Most of these posts are trying to be funny, not slamming Microsoft/IIS.
