  1. Re:Thankfully on Email Inventor Ray Tomlinson Dies At 74 (techrepublic.com) · · Score: 0

    Shiva Ayyadurai is a douche bag. Wow! Where do that guy get off? If patent "The pencil is round" does that make me the inventor?

  2. This is a significant death anniversary on Email Inventor Ray Tomlinson Dies At 74 (techrepublic.com) · · Score: 0

    I think Ray Tomlinson’s contribution is more culturally significant than Steve Jobs, Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg all wrapped up together!

  3. We, Ourselves might be the "Visitors". on Only 8% of the Universe's Habitable Worlds Have Formed So Far (sciencemag.org) · · Score: 0

    In some distant future, as life evolves on distant worlds, WE would be the advanced civilization! Visiting in our "Flying saucers", and studying primitive cultures who where only at that point learning the sciences that we ourselves understand today. So let's prepare for that future and advance anal probe tech as fast as we can! I can think of a dozen companies that already have the research underway.

  4. Sophos UTM Home License. on Ask Slashdot: VPN Solution To Connect Mixed-Environment Households? · · Score: 0

    I'm not sure if anyone has posted this option, sorry didn't read all of the comments. Sophos UTM with a home license. All you need it some low end dedicated hardware at each location and super easy to setup, Site to site, routing and all.

  5. I saw another movie which covers this topic; We just use a Mac laptop to upload a virus to their central ship.

    I worked for 8 months? That's way longer than my Backed Ziti lasts!

    Yes. There is something to this. 3G is Haram (evil doing)! That's why I took the religious high ground and went LTE!

    Score 5 "Funny"??!? Who the hell mods this stuff? and say hi to your mother when you emerge from her basement in the morning.

  11. Re:486MHz? You mean an Intel 486? on Installing Linux On Old Hardware? · · Score: 0

    May be mod'ed as "Funny" but It makes sense based on the VGA spec, RAM and Hard drive size; I think they are talking about a 486. Should that be that case then I really wonder: Why bother? This poster doesn't really give any indication toward their objective. Is it educational, Hobby, or what? Bloated? Is 3 Gig HD and 128 MB ram really an issue these days?

  12. Re:Make it part of the OS or... on Encryption? What Encryption? · · Score: 0

    It's built into Windows and most Linux distros, has been for many years. What the author would like to see as a widespread (common built in) technology is in fact just that. Off topic and part of a larger /. Issue: I have seen more and more poorly written, not news worthy stories making it to the front page of /. My question is: Is this trend a result of /. Moderators or readers?

  13. Widespread encryption software on Encryption? What Encryption? · · Score: 0

    What about Microsoft's Bitlocker? It's built into most editions of Vista and Windows 7. Is that not what was meant by widespread?

  14. VM OS X in Windows 7 on Windows Drains MacBook's Battery; Who's To Blame? · · Score: 0

    I have been running OS X 10.5.2 in VMware workstation on a Dell Latitude D630 running Windows 7 for the last couple of months and typically get 2.5 - 3 hours of battery life. I usually consider memory to be an important factor related to using VMware and maximizing battery life since constantly utilizing the hard disk for VM memory takes a lot of juice from the battery, Given how expensive a resonable amount of memory can be for new a Mac book (4 GB +) I'd guess that most mac users don't have enought. I pesonally use 8 GB.

    With technolies like VMware.. Who cares? We can deploy windows on Linix, snapshot and move on with reqired solutions like Exchange. I am doing this now in my organisation and life is good. When the windows system is comprimised I just restore in less than 15 minutes and life goes on.

    Yes. Dell offers RedHat Linux on all of their workstation class computers.

  23. Re:OK, enough is enough. on Homeless to be Implanted with Subdermal RFID Tags · · Score: 1

    You missed my point.. How do you determine who is "lower class"? and who determines that anyway. Ok, Homeless is homeless.. That's simple. If you follow the income tax status for lower class (ie. poverty line) then what if you are out of work for 6 months and file your taxes with an income below that standard.. Poof, You are lower class.. Or did you just mean people from the trailor parks? After I graduated from school I didn't have a job for a year (Late 80's you see). My family does not live here so they had no income status as far as the US tax department was concerned... I was "lower class", below the poverty line.. Should I have been tagged? My point is, Where does one begin to deviate from the principle of privacy and start to appoint someone to be the selector of your rights! You never know.. You could turn up on someones list.. P.S. Don't forget to pay your rent, mortgage, ..etc. You wouldn't want to be evicted... THen you'd have to be tagged!
