Yep, there is a very BIG difference between someone rooting your machine locally, or through the internet. If someone can root my box locally, I have much bigger worries to contend with, such as someone is in my house, where is my gun
As long as someone can't root my Linux 64 box through the internet, this is a non-issue.
Not my machine. It is a work PC, an OEM Dell if you will.. owned by the large corporation I work for. Please try posting something useful and helpful instead of stupid
Oops, my bad, I attempted to run an application such as Office app and/or web browser. I suppose it is all my error in trying to do some work instead of just look at the pretty desktop.
the reason the US keeps having 'big wars' is because of co's like halliburton and the rest that profit EXTENSIVELY from war and foreign aggression.
the government does not directly profit from war; but certain companies surely do.
a little lesson for you about how things work in the real world.
Many of the US self appointed officials (elections are an illusion) work for Carlyle Group http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carlyle_Group
These "folks" have their hands in most everything, but profit quite handsomely from war and death. Their ilk include Bush Sr., Bush Jr., James Baker III, John Major,.. pretty much the complete member roster of the Skull & Bones society, and then some...
Wondering who advises & controls Haliburton? At the very top, you will find Carlyle members. Those that profited from the global banking crash (all those B$$ went somewhere),.. The insurance industry screwing both sides, patient & doctor alike?,.. Conflict in Africa over blood diamonds,.. International drug trafficking,.. They profit by supplying both sides in any and every bloody conflict
They are there if you look close enough, but hide their presence through obfuscation. Pretty much the most wealthy and powerful across the globe are members
One must also consider that IE only runs natively on Windows. To switch from IE to FF, on Windows, does not really circumvent the inherent vulnerabilities of the OS. Not really sure how that works now as I dumped windows 10 years ago when it was in it's nightmare heyday.
FF on Linux should be much more secure than the IE running on windows. This is a no brainer. But FF is becoming slower with each new improved version. Although a quick google search can get you about:config modifications to dramatically speed the thing up. Additionally konqueror can now be switched from khtml to Webkit which also makes the browser amazingly fast. Even quicker than FF
I have to agree Today, Linux is almost identical in GUI to windows. If not easier to use..
I have 2 computers at work to choose from to do my daily reports. One has XP, the other is Win7. Both are the such a disappointment. Applications crashing or indefinitely hanging, and both are as slow as molasses in winter. It seems daily I have to do a hard reset to get either to respond just to do 5 minutes of work, which ultimately takes 1/2 hour. This is bad as any hard reset done on a windows system can literally destroy the file system. But what can one do when the thing is hopelessly stuck in an infinite loop?
Makes me wonder here just whom is on the M$ payroll to make such a stupid decision as changing horses midstream, switching from full Linux adoption back to M$ lock in and the malware hell.
I keep hearing that the next World Wars will be fought over resources
They already are and will continue to escalate as energy resources are depleted. FTFA it says that the energy peak will happen this year, but I've read it already has peaked and is now in decline.
What's of concern is the prediction that everything will really begin to turn to shit in 5 years.
Might be a good time to plan ahead and begin converting our energy infrastructures to alternative options in lieu of the usual plan of denial and burying our heads in the sand, hoping the scary monsters will just go away.
Good post. You obviously read my disclaimer being you didn't flame me. Too bad politics and life today is nothing short of stupidity in action. I have little faith we will be able to free ourselves from the slime that encumbers us these days. Those in power keep the masses in ignorance and darkness. Very effective method of control..
Because you're a Seventh Day Adventist or a Jehovah's Witness?
Not sure what the Jehovah's Witness does for their worship or belief, with exception they are always there to knock on my door during dinner and hand me some crap declaring how much better the world is getting with each passing day.
Most Seventh Day Adventists however actually attend a traditional protestant church service. The difference is they observe the original "Seventh Day Sabbath" hence the name, as the Jewish faith does. There are NO similarities though between Seventh Day Adventists and Jehovah's Witness's. The only grouping together in that they are both faith based religions, and nothing more.
The idea of Sunday worship came out of the church of Rome and was implemented at their beginning to entice the roman sun worshiping "pagans" to attend their services along with the early Christian followers. It was a cash flow thing to maximize tithes and offerings.
Modern day protestantism observes the catholic sunday worship day even though in their beginning, during the reformation, they also observed the Saturday seventh day sabbath. Today there isn't much difference between the pagan rituals, superstitions, and beliefs of the roman church and modern protestantism.
I thought Teabaggers were all for restoring the rights given by the constitution
Wrong! Teabaggers are just another radical religeo/political movement that uses misinformation and outright lies to influence an ignorant public and gain members and momentum.
Recall the recent Beck rally on the steps of the Lincoln memorial. WARNING SIGN: Beck states "religion and christianity have returned to America" Same old christian coalition bullshit, different wrapper: "Separation of church and state is a luxury we can no longer afford"
"Separation of church and state" was put into our Constitution for a very good reason. The teabaggers, Beck, and Palin out to give the illusion that their actions and motivations are faith based. The reality is that they are merely whores, willing to say and do anything for a buck, or the highest bidder, in the case of Beck and Palin
Disclaimer: I view all politicians and politics with ire and hate them all universally. Politics today is nothing short of organized crime.
I disagree with your sig, off topic I know, but.. "War's Legitimate Object" is taking by force something that someone else has. Sometimes land, and more recently, energy resources..
Wait a minute You mean to say RIAA lawyers breed asexually? I thought they were just the excrement of the cockroaches after consuming the prokaryotes. This is too weird..
I've had food poisoning several times, once from hot dogs from the grocery store, and once from Taco Bell
Lemonade is an acid and NOT supportative to the growth of salmonella It will however attract cockroaches, but those are a bit larger and you will know before you consume them.
Good link Once helium does run out we can still use hydrogen to fill those party balloons for the kids And after the kids crap out and go to bed, the adults can play "Balloon meets Cigarette" for some drinking fun
Yep We (the U.S.) really screwed the pooch when our corrupted financial sector collapsed the entire global economy recently
Finger pointing is now legal, so take you pick of any and all republican representatives, past and current, to thank for that one. They're the ones that thought it up
Legalized gambling on financial futures.. what a scam. I still wonder where all those lost billions went to and/or whose pockets were lined with it all. There is a special place in hell for all those cock suckers to burn in.
I'm sure the nazi trolls will mod me down for this post. I really don't care..
From TFA they say this craft, assuming with sail deployed, will be in orbit for 17 weeks How exactly does a sail work when going into the wind? I already know the answer, but just checking for a pulse here..
I think a better test would be to send the next probe out to mars using the solar sail idea.
A computer controlling in-flight operations infected with trojans translates to a computer running MS windows. Why the fuck would anyone even think of this? This is like building a suspension bridge using legos and 6 year olds doing the assembly.
So when I fly, is my life really dependent on a tinker toy OS? That's fucked up! Someone should be beaten to death for this idea.
It's the same of worse in the US. One such experience I have had recently was over my so called "elevated cholesterol" levels by my primary MD of that time. I was put on Lipitor and felt like shit the whole time I was on that garbage.
Eventually, I educated myself on cholesterol and realized the medical science for determining what constitutes elevated levels is actually a fabrication by the Pharma industry to peddle their dreck. Our doctors receive kick backs for the shit they push. Additionally the drugs they peddle provide very little benefit for your health and cause more harm than good.
I advise anyone diagnosed with elevated cholesterol to educate themselves before going on statin drugs. The short truth is, Cholesterol does not cause heart disease and is actually a function of your immune system. It is essential for your health and well being. Your brain needs it to function properly.

Jeffrey will not be still in class, he disrupts other students.
1958 - Jeffrey sent to the Principal's office and given a good paddling by the Principal. He then returns to class, sits still and does not disrupt class again.
2008 - Jeffrey is given huge doses of Ritalin. He becomes a zombie. He is then tested for ADD. The school gets extra money from the state because Jeffrey has a disability.
You're wrong All systems have bugs, even MACs. You're being naive if you think you are completely secure in your sandbox.
There will always be exploits and/or proof of concept exploits for MAC as well as Linux platforms, but are usually patched immediately without damage or fanfare.
If it's from fox news corp, that will only make you neurotic and paranoid
If it involves somehow improving your life such as how consumption of GMO products can damage your health, then that will be good for you as far as avoiding one more carcinogen

If my enjoyment of my surroundings enhances my enjoyment of food, why do I find the idea of eating lunch in a strip bar so offputting?
Even more so, after having a few beers, a good buzz can be spoiled by a bitching nagging woman nearby
