    That article is the craziest thing ever. He said we would be able to do anything at all, I bet if he was allowed to ramble on for another five minutes he would have been promising us the ability to shoot thunderbolts out of our assholes.

  17. Re:Sony didn't only rootkit their CDs on The Internationalization of Malware · · Score: 1

    I know, I wouldn't trust them as far as I could throw them. Really pissed off too as I loved the fact that they used linux as the operating system for the playstation in all its guises. I would really have liked to trust this company. However, I will not be buying anything from sony again.

  18. Sony didn't only rootkit their CDs on The Internationalization of Malware · · Score: 5, Informative

    I was extremely pissed off with the whole sony rootkit debacle, which was covert. I was even more pissed off when they bought one of my favourite music production programs Acid Pro and I checked it for the tell-tale signs of the rootkit (the processes that are started with $SYS$ are hidden from the process list) and found it present in that too. If anyone uses this product then the last rootkit free version is Acid Pro 4. Just a heads up.

    male guitarist often make jokesabout women not being able to play guitar (we know it's not strictly true, it's just about a one to ten ratio in comparison to males) but the donnas couldn't play that song with real instruments anyway so they were bound to be at a disadvantage. (christ girls, there's more to the guitar than power chords)

    at the time of posting that was correct. and you know i wasn't trolling, yet had to quote that rating as though one mods opinion mattered to me. it obviously gave you a boner anyway....you bore me. go away

    oh deary me...i can understand the differing in opinion completely, but ragging on me for not wanting to use the shift key? it's only slashdot, not a job application. also i have seen incredibly insightfull opinions on here that have been horribly miss-spelled/have grammatical errors. calling into question someones typing habits during a technical discussion is incredibly schoolyard...

  24. typical... on It's 2006 and Backups For Home User Still Tricky? · · Score: 0, Troll

    nobody here has any clue so far what to tell you, so instead keeping schtum they offer solutions that don't include using the dvd burner....i just don't really trust hard drives as a backup medium myself (i'm sure many people here will tell you why i'm wrong) simply because a dvd/cd you can leave it in the case for three years and if it hasn't been used then it will work fine first time. external hard drives that have more than one backup will degrade over time, and it will go eventually without warning (maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but...you get it) leaving you up shit creek. to be honest i think you are just going to have to back them up manually my friend. smart alecky as i am i don't know of any solutions either. it is early on during the thread though, so good luck.
    and please everyone, don't tell him to use linux (no flames please, i'm on debian now as we speak) i'm sure he's heard it many times if he's been here a while. anyway as i said, good luck
