  1. Now its just got to go wireless....with bluetooth on Apple Releases Multi-Button "Mighty Mouse" · · Score: 1

    dvforge.com has been cleaning house with a bluetooth apple styled mouse, and I'm happy to get a right click. But wouldn't be better to wirelessly connect to your bluetooth enabled powerbook without any wires?

  2. The new way to filter spam on AOL Treats Florida Emergency Alerts Mail As Spam · · Score: 1

    When we subscribe to mailing lists like the one described in the story, users should be prompted to enter a non spam phrase, something like a public password. So if an email is thought to be spam, just before being sent to the spam bin, the email is checked for the phrase, if the return is true, it sends it to the inbox. For example, my phrase is: "Check slashdot daily for news of wild running horses." If the phrase exists word for word in the body of the email, it's recognized as legitimate email.

  3. Russian Hackers the best? on Russians Claim Their Hackers the Best In the World · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Granted we have seen many so called 'hackers' come out of Russia. But all the best work I've seen has either been from Europe or the U.S. I don't know why someone would say the Russians are so 'good at math' when their education system is one of the worst in the world. Of course they have their champions but I think they should really consider the real reason why the Russian hackers are so prevelent. Russian hackers and crackers have nothing to fear from authorities. They don't have the best in the world, they have a handful of decent guys that work unrestrained. ...at least thats what my mail order bride says.
