What's the difference between a circumvention device for illegal purposes, and legal ("jailbreaking") purposes? Doesn't this fall under the realm of "jailbreaking is legal"?
I'm in the middle. I like GUIs for a lot of advanced program usages that I haven't learned on my own yet, but, for example, I've never found a visual DNS utility I liked. They're all just too slow. Classic (read: non-AJAXy) Web Interfaces are worse. Maintaining a router via it's built-in web server is antagonizingly slow.
Having said that, most everything else I do is all command line work.
The first is [obvious]: More pages with Malware contained 'London' because of those Geo-Spam ads that usually come from Virus-laden ad networks. "Hot Singles waiting for you in London!" You know those ones. Facebook does it too, just a little bit less flagrantly.
The second is the fact that Vodafone UK is serving up Malware. That's awesome.
A quick in-page skim and search does not appear to show anyone else having already said this:
It'd be interesting to see if Brad (yes, of LiveJournal fame) does something like this, given (1) what he's already done and (2) what he's mentioned he'd like to do.
Also in Part 1 you'll see that it was suggested that he put his multitude of in-home access points to use, and use it to let his Android determine where he is in his house, and wire up some other basic utilities to use this data.
If he gives every light switch an IP address, then the room can light up as soon as he goes to enter it.
That would be nothing short of amazing. He would never have to raise his arm to flick the switch ever again!
And when he wants to be social, he can just broadcast his EXACT position. It'll be like Britekite on Steroids!:P
I seem to remember unchecking this "feature" on a computer I fixed up / updated recently, but it just hit me that the green checkboxes weren't some "fabulous new google feature" but was indeed AVG link checking... Maybe I did, maybe I didn't. I know it's not compatible with Firefox 3, but that particular computer didn't have 3 yet.
Looks like I have an extension to go uninstall from a few computers:/.

The SAME thing happened to Napster. Judge Merylin Patel (I'm sure I misspelled that, apologies) said the SAME thing about the RIAA overstepping their boundry's with John/Jane Doe lawsuits and the like. This was after the case was done and over with, and Napster went "TWO POINT OH! (more like two old crap)"
I really wish I could find that article. I'm sure part of the problem is that my spelling is atrocious.
"Every gamer has a momemt, sort of like losing your gamer cherry. You never forget the first time a game moves you to tears, makes you laugh out loud, or scares you so much you have to turn on the lights and turn off the computer."
Doom 1 E1M4 Command center Running around that maze hearing various baddies growling, but tredging onwards as normal. Then, a bulldog walks out in front of me and starts knawing. It almost seemed to warp, as I didn't even see it come on screen.
I slammed the Esc key, and ran out of the room. I think I may have also hit up -> enter to quit the game while I was launching myself out of my chair.
Yeah, that was a Gamer Cherry moment... Too bad it was wasted on Doom. Doom 3, Silent Hill, or Fatal Frame would have been FAR better candidates.
However, we're talking about a 8 year difference (at least, if not more), and classics and such.
On Topic: The problem with this article is that Final Fantasy isn't a classic. It's, what, 10 years old?
Let's revisit it when it's more than one generation old. (The PS3 isn't out yet, the PS2 era is still here...)
I always thought that it should be required to take a test in order to use a computer. Well, it's not required, but at least it'll set the NEWB standard. (New Equivalent Wisdom Barrier)
To actually answer the question at hand, I think the test needs to have a screenshot of two sites. Like, paypal.com, and a phishing site, and the individual needs to figure out which one is actually PayPal.
This test will probably work better when actually web browsing... so let's go that route instead.
Rockstar North / Take Two got a slap on the wrist and re-published its game with a new rating. Guess what Jack, the game is still being sold, and there are not OMFG FINES putting the company out of business.
So, with regards to "concluding that the game content will spawn 'an even worse disaster' than occurred during Hot Coffee.", does this mean you're finally going to be de-barred?
Everyone knows you're under scrutiny for your accusations/actions, and you suffered the biggest personal problems out of everyone involved in the "scandal".
So we should be scared of the backlash that a bunch of topless women will bring?... uhhh, bring it on? No, seriously, I'm man enough to deal with it. Bring everything it's got!
Regarding "And to counter you're other point, people shouldn't be in a position to be peeking at the screening device anyway. Maybe a quick glance, but if someone is standing at the edge of the security area glaring at the screen, I think that'd be something more worth being concerned about."
Phoenix Sky Harbor (as with many other airports) has very makeshift 'secondary screening' zones. I'm escorted right behind screens that are all easily viewable, and the table you wait at (where they inspect your carryons in detail) is not all that far away from the screens.
I mean, *I'm* not going to sit there and stare and other people's luggage x-ray'ed on screen, but truth be told, I do look. I kill time by eyeballing around the surrounding area. The screens just happen to be inbetween me and the art they place in the waiting area.
Why put in images of bombs and such? Someone eyeballing that that isn't a screener would blow a gasket if they saw it.
How about pictures of assorted dildos/vibrators? No, I'm serious. That'll catch your eye, male or female. How about 'to scale' midgets (wow, that sounds awful... as much of a joke as it is) fighting in a mini suitcase? Or a very carefully and perfectly laid out bra of panty?
Seriously, give these people something they wouldn't mind seeing (well, sans the dildo/vibrator) and you'll get (1) a chuckle and (2) some extra energy for productivity.
You know, on second thought, I'm going to patent the concept, brb.
Well. I already had an account with Google, so I should have said "I logged into google and nuked their domain from appearing in any results", not registered:-).

What the heck? That got TOTALLY munged, take two:
diff -uN <(cat file1 |sort -u) <(cat file2 |sort -u)
I think? Possibly also |wc -l but that admittedly wouldn't be 100% accurate.
The traditional way is three commands:
sort -u file1 > file1.out
sort -u file2 > file2.out
diff -uN file1.out file2.out
diff -uN file1.out
sort -u file2 > file2.out
diff -uN file1.out file2.out
I think the real story here is two fold;
The first is [obvious]:
