  1. Re:I am really worried on Rosenzweig Now Chairman of DHS Privacy Board · · Score: 1

    Emigrate to NZ?

    First, have a doctorate in a practical skill or any form of MBA. They love business administrators for some reason. I think I could almost be happy enough as a low-ranking accountant...

    Next, have enough money to fund yourself for at least a year. My current job sometimes sucks, but at least it pays well enough that I can save a little...

    Third, be prepared to deny and disavow connections to any other state, and sever all ties with your former nation. I'm not entirely sure if I'm prepared to do that yet...

    Fourth, expect to be labelled a non-citizen worker and deportable at any time for any reason. That worries me, that even if I pass all the other tests and have a job waiting for me, I may still be considered good for nothing...

    But hey, at least their immigration bureau is good at its job, right?

    Any questions?

    No, but I love you for knowing all this.

    "If you have nothing to hide or done nothing wrong, why does it matter if they go and search your house?"

    Because if anyone can come into your private space and look for stuff, even if you really have done no wrong, there will always be someone who doesn't like what you have, what you are, what you're doing, where you're going. From then on, you are dirt. Lawsuits, blacklists, and other forms of discrimination and denigration will result in an attempt to break you, imprison you, and indebt you to the investigating parties or their sponsors.

  4. Re:New? Hardly on Cartoon Network's 1st Original 'Toonami' Series · · Score: 1

    Maybe it wasn't very good because there wasn't time to develop much more than the absolute basic plot.

    Of course, if all they have in the full series is an absolutely basic plot and no worthwhile characterization, then maybe they shoulda stuck to commercial-length spots between shows. We'll see.

  5. Re:No way, MMOGs are just beginning on Doom Forecasted for World of Warcraft · · Score: 1

    .hack//SIGN cometh...

    The World will be here.
    Just as soon as someone invents a popular, cheap VR interface that works as well as the one in the anime. So, like, 30-50 years from now.

    Thank you. May your efforts bless your progeny.

  7. Re:I Wouldn't Be Too Concerned on BBC Writer Tries PC Repair, Finds Poor Software · · Score: 1

    Ah. It might be that the company didn't want to buy harder-to-find (and sometimes more expensive) .11a devices for every device on their network; budget can be an issue with them.

  8. Re:I Wouldn't Be Too Concerned on BBC Writer Tries PC Repair, Finds Poor Software · · Score: 1

    Your friend probably *should* have recommended devices running 802.11a, which uses the 5GHz spectrum. It's an older (and thus mature) protocol which is less commonly used, and thus much less crowded. Many 802.11a cards/access points are sold as Wireless A+B or A+G, meaning dual-use if you really have to have your 2.4GHz access.

  9. Re:But do they support copyright infringement? on Indie Artists Support Peer To Peer · · Score: 1

    Pencil and paper can support copyright infringement by making it easier for someone to reproduce the works of others.
