"Anymore," really? I thought after three decades of high profile penetrations into government systems from every department would have taught them that they were never secure.
From the first moment they hooked two computer together on a network one of them got hacked.
Ten years for just stealing a little code.
Damn you would think he gambled with investor funds on risky phantom products that sent the whole economy into a tail spin.
But I guess that's what they call their business model.
I think your smoking crack. There is nothing hotter then a woman in a G-Suit. I would pick any of these women over a runway model any day of the week and twice on Sundays.
Seriously now, Emotiv Epoc is a brain machine interface. It probably would be painfully slow (like learning to be ambdextrious) but it's what I would switch to for input should I ever lose the function of my hands.

It defeats the whole purpose of a bidding system to state that only one company will be considered for bidding. I might be wrong here but I'm pretty sure that's illegal. Which is probably why they are suing.
So their answer to users fleeing their site in droves is two parts; 1. Examine what drove their user base away in the first place 2. CRANK THAT SHIT TO 11!
It's been awhile since I've worked in satellite communications but you can use it to pick up free Satellite TV.
Most satellites that broadcast TV have a few stations broadcasting in the clear i.e no encryption but you need a few things. A basic guide for sat TV here http://electronics.howstuffworks.com/satellite-tv.htm needs to be read. You will need an LMB (Low Noise Block) to filter out background noise. It's my understanding that mos satellite receivers now days already come with LMBs built in these days so check specs. The predominately used receiver is most likely a Scientific Atlanta DSR. Some of transponders still broadcast on VCII but I doubt you'll find much in North America. With Digital satellite TV you can fit 12 channels on a signal transponder while analog it's one transponder one channel. You'll probably be using analog signal to start with since it's just easier.
Now you need a list of satellites for North America (or wherever you're from) can be found here http://www.lyngsat.com/ which has a complete listing would over. They will also detail type of feed channels and transponders of the satellites as well as type of encryption encoding etc. Again check specs on potential receivers.
Next you need to point it at a bird. 5 seconds on Google gave me this guide. http://searchwarp.com/swa40134.htm one thing we used to do is look up a channel broadcasting in the clear on the satellite we were aiming at on the Lyngsat site and then tune the satellite receiver to that transponder, channel and polarity so we could see how close we were getting to it by looking at clairty of signal on a TV.
In other words it's a big pain in the ass. You are probably better off using it as a bird feeder.
I think the situation is that it's against the rules for soldiers to view those classified materials and that rule contains exceptions that would cover 90,000+ pages of documents leaked to the world. The thing about big government bureaucracies is that these are the places the phrase "none of us is as dumb as all of us" comes from.
From my understanding the fundamental definition of "Information wants to be free" doesn't mean free as in beer. Although value and economics play largely into the artificial restrictions on information the gist of the statement has more do freedom then free stuff.
The process from restricted to free is practically a law of human nature. We evolved to share information. We survived as a species because we shared with our progeny the things we learned from better tool making and farming to better ways to interact with each other as human beings. The very idea of information being withheld for the perpetual profits of music cartels is abhorrent to our very biology. As a result it may be better to say that information tends to become free in the possession of human beings.
I am curious: If this is wrong, why is copying music (which is under a much more restrictive license than Creative Commons) not? Is it a "because I didn't make money off of it" thing?
Genuine question here, not trying to troll or flamebait.
Most people on/. probably would not say that full blown piracy is OK. Most of the issues with copyright law brought up here are with specific abuses of copyright, restrictive DRM, attacks on fair use, even using DMCA to attack free speech, etc. Even the hypocrisy of the music labels claiming that they are just trying to protect the rights of artists that they themselves are not paying is fair game.
There is a big difference between wanting to crack DRM for music you legally purchased so it can be played by another device or making another Downfall parody and pirating music for the explicit purpose of making bootleg CD's that you sell for profit.
What they are doing in this case is piracy for the explicit purpose of making profit.
It is not like AIM had any existence in Turkey so, "conspiracy to kill ICQ" is not valid. Unfortunate thing is, MS "Live", that backwards thing became the king because of them.

I'm sure he lost many a night's sleep trying to figure out how to pay-wall the damn thing...
Monsters don't sleep, they wait.
Good luck with that.
Good! Maybe my users will get less viruses now.

Sadly as the general public get's better at using computers we will see more of these cases come up. It's was inevitable.
