    You mean now its possible to tell from the IP the sex of the visitor?

  3. Re:The Terminator on The Baby Bootstrap? · · Score: 1

    When will my baby considered of legal age to get a drink?

    Also do you think once it is considered adult (so that parents dont come to blame) can it download pirated music and software on its own?

  4. Spyware on Web Browsing on Your PSP · · Score: 1

  5. Re:Personal projects? on Software Development Practices At Google · · Score: 1

    Does it then mean that I can choose to do nothing for the 20% of the time too?

  6. Re:Not too bad on Japanese Govt Boosts OSS Developments · · Score: 1
    Not too sure whether the tax payers(many of whom dont really care about a computer) money going for FOSS development should be a prime concern where there are other issues at hand.
    How about hunger, poverty and countries where 1 out of 3 ppl having AIDS?

    But then whats the point, all our bases belongs to THEM

  7. Re:Simple answer: on Adobe Acrobat Toolbar Worse than Malware? · · Score: 1

    Without the toolbar its difficult to create the links and bookmarks embedded in the word doc.

  8. Re:This would never work!! on Ultaportable Apps: Take Your Thumbware Anywhere · · Score: 1
    The Yahoo Toolbar http://toolbar.yahoo.com/firefox for FF can already do most of the Chipmark thingies.

    Also I have got so used to the "Add bookmarks here" plugin that Chipmark didn't do it for me.

    Otherwise its a great plugin for new users I would say.

  9. When you go fishing.... on MS to Trade Passwords for 2-Factor Authentication · · Score: 1

    What Bruce Schneier mentioned about phishing sites and bank websites...

    In real life (I know internet is real too) what would you do to make sure that the building you are walking into is the real bank? You check the signboard and the shirt tag of the guard at the gate.

    So why not display a random number on the website everytime you go there, and the number is same as the token given to you by the bank.

    Agreed a trojan can sign in with you. But it cannot create a payee to syphon your money or do a transaction, because you will need to authorise those with a code which the bank will send through another channel (e.g sms)
