I tired talking to a few TSA goons the last time I was in the US. None would engage me in chit-chat. Contrast that with the customs guy I chatted with in Melbourne this year, who when asked if he was always this busy, rolled his eyes and sarcastically said "Yep, just another day of living the dream". We both laughed and our day was a little better.
How did you delete Google+ without losing Gmail? Or did you delete everything?
As far as I can tell, you can't. I've spent a couple of hours trying to unlink G+ from Gmail, and I don't think it can be done.
So I'm implementing plan B, which consists of:
Updating my contacts and various website accounts to change my email address to the account my ISP gave me when I signed up. Moving all my videos to Vimeo. Closing my Google account.
Remember one rule: treat every other person the way you want to be treated. Excluding true sociopaths who are chemically unable to parse the concept, yes, morality really is that simple.
Sure, you'd spot it when you got out of your car. What I'm saying (repeatedly) is that most people wouldn't stop their car after a minor impact sound unless the car starts misbehaving. Cops could think "That guy looks suspect, I'll tag his car and see where he goes" and most people would be none the wiser until the got to their destination and (possibly) noticed the device.
Halloween has crept into New Zealand in the last few years, with a small percentage of families out trick or treating. However, there's no perceived meaning to it, and as far as I can tell it's just retailers pushing it as an excuse to sell more crap. To avoid dissapointing the few kids that are about, I lock the gate when I get home from work.
Sure, because cops never expand the use of tools given to them beyond their intended purpose e.g tasers - designed to be a non-lethal force alternative, not a "Stop arguing and comply or I'll taser the shit out of you" torture device.
Most people don't stop and examine their car after an impact noise unless the car is obviously impaired in some way.
The fire hazard that exists in lithium batteries exists because of a potential for a chemical reaction between the lithium and any nearby moisture.
Nope. Lithium polymer, and to a lesser degree, lithium ion batteries, catch fire when an internal short generates a thermal runaway. The only risk moisture poses is it could short a cathode and anode in a cell, and again, you get a thermal runaway. There is no chemical reaction between the lithium and water.

They didn't know it was virtual - the intent was the same as if it were a real child.
How does the virtual part make the statement ridiculous? If the guys didn't know it was a virtual child then the intent is to exploit a child.
This sort of semantic nit-picking bullshit on /. annoys the fuck out of me, and your post getting modded up makes me wonder about the crowd here.
You don't really appreciate what an awesome amateur effort this is until you see pics http://www.cloudynights.com/ubbthreads/showflat.php/Cat/0/Number/6146228/page/0/view/collapsed/sb/5/o/all/fpart/2/vc/1
Being the owner of an 8" Schmidt–Cassegrain scope, this blows my mind.
Speaking as someone from outside the US, I'd freak out too if people started carrying rifles around in public.
Like this guy, trolling cops by carrying an MP5 around the streets - what did he think was going to happen? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sj9wahCTz08
I know, 2nd amendment, blah, blah - but that's fucked up.

Instead, we have people on both Left and Right screaming that it MUST be all done their way, no compromise ...)
I'd say people on the far right and the right.

In my experience, social engineering is part of a thorough pen test, just as physical security is. It's usually the most successful/easiest part, too.

Remind me to stay away from BDSM fetishists...
... your a moron
You should get that printed on a tee shirt. You could wear it, you know, ironically.
there is no way you will get a connection to a tower at 35000 feet moving at 500mph
Yes you can. If you will recall, this was proven on 9/11/2001.
I seem to recall a few phones connecting to a couple of towers at high speed.
What, too soon?
*sigh* I'll try again.

Either way, you would have to be blind not to see it.
Speaking of blind, you should put your reading glasses on and have another look at my comment. Sure it's easy enough to spot - if you stop the car, get out and have a look. BTW, it's adhesive https://www.starchase.com/uploads/products/marketing-slicks-3.pdf
Not as good as a punch in the face just on principles because you're wearing them in public but it's a start.
The comments from the Glassholes in the first link are hilarious.

"There are other ways to track vehicles and this could raise some civil liberties issues." What does that even mean?
That the UK gives a shit about civil liberties, unlike the US with their BS "Because of, you know, terrorists" crap?
What are you, the NSA or something?
We should have buried that thing long ago, anyway.

A man's body is his own. His water belongs to the corporation.
Spice is a hell of a drug.
+1 My job is to repel boarders, and I frequently see malware arriving via SMTP from Microsoft IP blocks.
You missed the step where special interest groups start "funding" the people running the show in order to get special treatment.
I didn't realise being an arsehole was illegal. Ditto for being wealthy.
This assumes the officer you talk to is honest and moral. You should assume the cop isn't above lying, and say nothing.
