  1. Re:Something to check out... on How Do You Locate That Access Point? · · Score: 1

    However, if you want the precision mapping, you have to pay a very, very large chunk of change.. I have seen a demo, and it is pretty sweet to watch it pinpoint the exact location of a rouge AP.

    I don't think it's worth the price if it only detects pinkish-red access points.

  2. Re:List of New Features on Apple Announces Tiger Release Date · · Score: 1, Funny

    "Remappable Modifier Keys

    Remap modifiers such as control and caps lock to be super elite."

    I can be super elite? Where do I sign up?

  3. Basic Japanese on Learning a New Language Using Open Source? · · Score: 1

    Slime Forest is a fun, simple NES-style RPG that teaches kana (the alphabet) and 200 of the most important kanji.

    It's LGPL, too!

  4. Re:Credit card fraud is good for card issuers on Reporting Stolen Credit Card Lists? · · Score: 1

    One idea I've had, inspired largely by the "full disclosure" ethos of the software security community, is to write a text file explaining the very simple way to make credit card payments for services over the Internet without (1) ever having to pay for the service, or (b) breaking the law in a way that can be prosecuted. This claim sounds highly suspect. If such a loophole exists, I find it incredibly hard to believe that it has not long since been abused enough to warrant a fix. If your business is mid-sized or smaller, perhaps you could temporarily stop accepting credit cards (say, during a time of year when you have relatively little business), widely publish this exploit, and ride out the storm for a few days?

  5. Another Star Wars Parody on TIE-Tanic Movie · · Score: 1

    I don't know if this has been mentioned, but another nice parody involving Star Wars and the Titanic can be found at http://www.trimension.com/SimWars.htm
