Of course not. Why would anyone think you were a kook for posting over 4,400 words about some completely sane subject matter on Slashdot? I can't wait for the sequel: "More Shit No-one Cares About" and the eventual prequel: "Hey, Guess What I'm Thinking Right Now?"
If this was Facebook I'd be clicking that big red Australian 'Report An Online Crime' button right now to report you stealing minutes of my life.
"Hello, police? I want to report an online crime! Facebook is telling everyone in the world everything about me! It's not fair!! What's my name? You can check me out at www.facebook.com/EveryFacebookUser..."
I wonder if the government lifted its restraining order on this software because they're using it, or a variation, themselves? Requiring encryption? Users can't disguise it, but what about government agencies? I may sound paranoid, but I don't care... I'm going to buy a tinfoil hat for my computer!
Of course, it is usually blocked by noscript and flashblock.
This appears to be a SWF file being run by Adobe Reader or Acrobat. Browser based plugins aren't going to help when it's opened by a desktop application.
I wasn't impressed with the performance of it in the video. The scrolling stuttered and he had to press/click some items multiple times in order for it to register. It is an interesting device so I hope they can improve its performance. I doubt they'll get the price "well under $1000" with two 14" touch screens.
They've added a lot of security. For example, when I debug an application on Windows 7, I have to click four dialog boxes instead of just one. If that isn't real security, I don't know what is.
Well, four is greater than one. A car has four wheels and a unicycle only has one. A car is more secure than a unicycle. In fact, in a collision between a car and a unicycle the passenger(s) in the car will always be safer - even if the car isn't moving. Based on the preceding car analogy I can confidently declare Windows 7 is more secure than a unicycle.
Are you sure this isn't an effort by the *IAA crowd to 'happen upon' illegal file sharing or other such frowned upon activities?
Call me stupid, paranoid or even bat-shit crazy, but I don't want the government (or *IAA) installing a device that my "bandwidth" goes through. If they want that level of access let them get a warrant;-)
I don't think every piece of hardware should be supported forever, but I think a year of official support for the latest version releases after the last date you sold the product is a minimum
If the contract period is 2 years, and the early termination fee is based on the contract period, they better support the phones for 2 years.
Because it means everything, it actually means nothing, so the term is useless. Stories on “fragmentation” are dramatic and they drive traffic to pundits’ blogs, but they have little to do with reality. “Fragmentation” is a bogeyman, a red herring, a story you tell to frighten junior developers. Yawn.
Occam's razor is better satisfied by assume it is what it most resembles, not a badly drawn something else, with the coincidence that the badly drawn features happen to match the features of something else.
Eh. The scammers use "stupid shit" as the bait because that's what works. If "intelligent shit" started attracted the most clicks, they'd start using that instead.
You mean "This New Intel CPU Has A Great New Hologram! Check It Out!" won't work?
When Sprint & Verizon roll out their 4G networks will they be able to handle simultaneous voice and data or will they still be stuck with an either/or situation?
Slashdot Mirror
Does Amazon know about his?
It only violates Amazon's patent if you order an online crime with one click, not report one.
I AM NOT A KOOK!

Arguing on slashdot makes you ________.
Um, taller?
If the fix is critical, why is the Linux 64-bit version still at the vulnerable level?
No versions have been fixed yet so all versions are still vulnerable ... this includes Linux 64-bit.

According to the video in this article Dell executive Ron Garriques says that fitting it into a pocket was "really the whole design point".
Bluetooth is holding down the Geek factor? lol
We can dream, can't we?

Knowing didn't seem to help Earl Holliman (aka Mike Ferris) in the very first episode of The Twilight Zone.

I see a Mac peeking over his right shoulder ... how prophetic!
What does OMG stand for in Hungarian then
I dunno, Oy, My Government?
OMG this is not a joke
I know! It's, like, like they're just Hungary for government information, like, you know, now!

But what if the artist was the first Picasso?
Ancient art represents ancient reality, news at 11!
Actually this provides proof of prior art for Big Bird and should invalidate all of Sesame Street's copyrights :-)
Does Safari have any sort of built-in protections against this sort of thing?
It's not MS IE?

Why does the Slashdot section on worms have a picture of a crawling caterpillar?
They do it just to bug people ;-)
Not trolling, just asking ...
When Sprint & Verizon roll out their 4G networks will they be able to handle simultaneous voice and data or will they still be stuck with an either/or situation?
Also: BEHEAD THOSE WHO INSULT FREE SPEECH
Sorry, but that's ironically impossible.
