You will be running a firewall in any case, IPv4 or IPv6, if you have a modicum of common sense. Opening and remapping a port it is no harder than just opening it. You just fill another box in the GUI, or whatever. Not an oh-so-great difficulty.
creation process. It doesn't mention "public profile" anywhere. It doesn't join me G+ in a sneaky way like described in the article It does prompt me to "upgrade" though, but I don't have to actively avoid it, like some comments imply.
My name there is "- -" (dash as the first name, dash as the second name), can you find me on G+?
Amazingly, when I was 10, I saw a description of exactly this thing in a popular technical magazine (aimed at 10-year-olds, appropriately). The thing was invented by yet another 10-year-old. This was, like, 25 years ago... --
A car engine can utilize only about 30% of the gas energy. A power plant can do much better (up to 60%). Not many of them currently do, but this is entirely possible with today's technology. Such utilization is much more difficult to achieve with a small car engine.
Furthermore, electricity production can, in principle, be made ecologically friendly. Wind, solar, geothermal, hydro, etc. And, of course, fusion (in the future). Try this with your SUV.
So while electric cars are not necessarily eco-friendly today, they may well be in the not-so-distant future.
But I agree that other alternative energy sources must be researched, too. --
Bombs that are able to wipe out China (and all other countries, 100 times) are already here. No need to go to Moon for it. The trick is to release that energy in a controlled fashion, and we still can't do it. --
The more relevant question is: will we (as in humankind) still be around when Moon's He3 is exhausted? Heck, will we still be around before we can start to mine it? --
Also there is/was a spamfiltering service (I forgot their name) that worked like this. You establish an account with them, they forward you your mail or let you access it with your browser. As soon as new mail arrives, and the sender isn't in your address book, they send a reply with a polite request to go to their randomly-generated web page and click on a specific place in the imagemap. Once this is done, the sender is in your address book, and you got to see the mail. Spambots can't do this, hence you don't see any spam. --
Childish tactic. He said that IF the data generated by gcc is covered by the GPL THEN YOUR data is screwed, because data that is generated by gcc is everywhere. You say "great, now you see that the data generated by gcc is covered by the GPL". Unimpressing. I've seen trolls that are orders of magnitude more consistent than you. --
Erm. Compiler output is derived from its input, that's for sure. How it is derived from the compiler itself is beyond me. It's like saying your./ posts are derived from Netscape (it transforms keystrokes to characters) and from Lynx (it transforms HTML markup to terminal escape sequences) and from xterm (it transforms terminal escape sequences to X protocol requests) and from X (it thansforms X protocol requests to pixels). I'm not even talk about the software that's inside modems (they compress, you know).
Thank you.
Doh! This is a troll.sig! Why I'm responding to trolls? Must...resist...temptation... --
According to the AC with an inept legal department, if you compile something with gcc, your binary must be GPLed, and so must be your source. *BSD people use gcc to compile their wares (not warez) and distribute the compiled binaries. Therefore (again, according to that AC) *BSDs are GPLed. Which would be a major screwup, if only what the aforementioned AC was saying were true.
Oh wait...you probably are that AC. Must be pretty hard to troll without contradicting yourself, eh? --
And you are starting to sound like a man who desperately needs to grab a dictionary and look up "irony". Or is it me who's starting to sound like a man who desperately needs to grab a dictionary and look up "irony"? Man, I'm lost... --

If you are running your IPv6 setup directly connected to the big bad net with no firewall, you are doing it wrong.

Their FAQ says "no one can buy their way to the whitelist". Do you think they are lying?
BTW you can always change the defaults, that's what your brain is for.
A virus can get your passwords even if you set up a master password. It's not even moderately difficult.

TEntireFA doesn't make much sense.
I propsose they take the name "Shminterest". Can swap my rights to it for a modest stash of Queen's portraits.
but how do I interact with the program? Will the new standard include anything like mouse input?
C/C++ is undefined behavior. Don't do that, kids!
It couldn't translate what I've typed in in KOI8-R, so I guess it only understands Windows-1251 (which I can't type). Sigh.

Comment posting software should:
- Generate a random phrase (about 4 words) or number (about 10 digits)
- Render it to a PNG/JPEG/GIF (uncompressed, to be sure) using a random font
- Distort the image slightly, add some noise, whatever
- Show the resulting image to the user
- Require the poster to type in that same exact phrase or number
If your bot can beat this system, its output is probably worth reading.--
d. To procrastinate at work.
