A network is made up of hosts. Secure your hosts. If you have laptops come and go in your home.. secure your hosts.
The biggest threat to your 'network' is coming through that little dsl router (or whatever). The immensity and anonymity of the Internet is where you are exposed to every threat in the world. Not in the lobby of your building or your back yard. There is no comparison. Secure WiFi is just to give you that good feeling.
Wired or wireless, there's nothing I can do to stop my stepfather from clicking on every dodgey pop-up or installing every spyware ladden toolbar and plugin that presents itself to him. Sensible habits on the Internet are what's needed.
I have never used anti-virus software and never will. It makes you a lazy consumer instead of a participant on the Internet.

I saw this recently. It's good and worth seeing. I've seen too many versions including the original in theatres (when it came out via flickering candle light) to remember all the differences. As far as I can tell there is really just a few small scenes added and maybe some lighting/mood appears different. All with the exception of one small but key scene. Deckard has a dream in which he sees a unicorn. This gives more significance to the epiphany he has when he picks up the origami unicorn left by Gaff outside his door. This is conveying to him that he (Deckard) too is a replicant and that Gaff knows this. This idea has been discussed and I am told (haven't read it) is true in "Do Androids..". If anything it is worth seeing again on the big screen.
Not quite the doctors wristwatch joke. I had an infection occuring in my gum one time and went to the dentist, who said an old root canal had become infected. After the x-ray, they told me I had a piece of a "file" in my tooth. I was confused at first. Aparently, when I had the root canal done, the dentist was filing the inside of my tooth and the tip of the file got stuck and then (he) broke off. So of course, he filled in the tooth, leaving the file bit inside and without telling me. Apparently also this is a common practice. I had to have oral surgery (cut in through the side wall of my gum) to remove the file (hence the reason the first "dentist" left it there).
I saw this on National Geographic and actually a relative offered to buy it for me. I said no thanks. Does it need to be said?. I guess it does. People, do NOT send your DNA to anyone, even if it's 'anonymous'. Once more.
DO NOT SEND YOUR DNA TO ANYONE. It doesn't matter which NGO is behind this (although it's probably Rockefeller and the eugenics crowd), they only have one purpose in mind, and they are even going to trick YOU into volenteering and paying for it! Wow.
If google is snooping than YOU CAN CHOOSE another search engine. The FDA is the most corrupt agency of them all and if you think they are "protecting" consumers you are very sadly mistaken and need to do better research. That's the FDA brochure. The FDA serves big pharma and agro corps. Period.
Free speech & privacy does NOT mean google cannot snoop on your searches if it's in the TOS. It does mean the government cannot. Google is not a right nor a service that is provided by the government. You don't have to use them but if they are breaking the law you can prosecute them.
So the Constitution says quite a bit about Internet privacy if it's in the TOS. Don't rely on the government to 'gaurentee' your privacy. Choose who you do business with intelligently and responsibly and be an adult. Liberty assumes you are, governments assume you are not.
Texting is about the stupidest application to 'revolutionize' communications. With all the technology available today people get excited about the ability to send text to mobile devices. Yawwwnnnn.. This 'news' is not for nerds, it's about pricing and consumer electronics.
Jesus. Don't you get it? This is a blank check for hauling away ANYONE who may be deemed hiding something. Christ! Duhh.. This doesn't say anything about encryption, so it must be okay?.. Duhh...
That is an incredibly unimpressive statement. Ugghh. Please study more history & well thought out science fiction. Maybe Patrick Henry or Philip K. Dick. Try perusing the Anti-Federalist Papers. Stop parroting these talking heads on network television. You really need to work your brain somewhat or we are all in trouble.
An all powerful, tyrannical government is far and away more dangerous than terrorism. If we didn't have the former, we wouldn't be experiencing the later. Citizens must control their governments, not the other way around. Period.

Isn't EVERYONE very upset that we need these types of applications these days? Why does it seem reasonable that EVERYONE needs to hide their communications from their own governments? Shouldn't we be more upset that things have gotten so out of hand?
The Orion Queen is going to return to destroy us in 2012, so I'm guessing whatever is left after that will begin a new calendar system anyway. So this is really moot.
I hate to promote drugs as a selling point, but as a legitimate position.. Vote for Republican RON PAUL in the US 2008 Presidential election. He is really a libertarian and has been advocating legalizing drugs for years.
In summary:
If you want to SMOKE DOPE [or think adults should be able to decide for themselves, NOT government],
It's another one of these monstrous systems integration projects that will/never work and every hospital/med center is doing them. They want everything to talk to everything and the only reason behind it is really more big brother Total Info Awaren. BS. I worked for a hospital in the 90's. It was started before I got there and still going on years later after I left. I'm sure it's still going on. It is a monstrous bureaucracy that costs millions (billions?) and you can expect problems of this scale to increase as they continue to centralize their vulnerabilities.
This is less of an issue about economics and more of an issue of intelligence. But lets indulge. In free market capitalism, business' (you) provide services to meet customers (them) demands. How well or creatively you do that has a direct correlation to your degree of success.
So your really asking the wrong question. But you could try telling the customer that they are being unreasonable. Let us know how that works out for you. Heh.

It's called activism or acting, as apposed to whining.

Yes! Thank you New Year's Gods! A native linux driver for my Aspire laptop's Broadcom BCM94318MPG card!
Yes sir. I really can't ask for more than that can I?.. The old BCM94318 w/out any damned NDIS wrapper.
Yep. It sure would take a warm and good soul to release one of those.

Yeah. I was pissed.

If this bill passes, you won't be able to use OTR without being carted off. Call your senator and tell them to vote NO.

The Orion geneticists mixed their dna with original earthers to make a race of slaves. Darn. I got to this post way too late.

"At that time, they refused to say 'on security grounds' whether the information was encrypted."
Which means it wasn't.

It has been ~70 years now, hasn't it? A couple of generations.. At least keep the outdated references limited to cold war stuff.
Installed it. Ran it. Crashed it. Uninstalled it.
Nice concept. Crap implementation. I'll check back at v3.0 or maybe v4.
