  1. Those are not public services on Why Public Email Needs a Police Force · · Score: 0

    Yahoo and Gmail are NOT public services! They are services that are owned and operated by corporations, not the government. Public services mean services provided by the government, like the postal service. Don't try and make it seem like email is a public service. It's not.

  2. But they're Cyber Contractors! on Anonymous Releases 400 MB of FBI Contractor Data · · Score: 3, Funny
    But they used the word cyber on their website 3 times describing their mission! They must be good!

    Mission and Cyber Support

    We tackle some of the most challenging cyber security problems facing our nation, including identifying and neutralizing external cyber attacks, managing security operations centers (SOCs), developing robust insider threat detection programs, and creating enterprise vulnerability management programs.

    And in the 50s and 60s, Superman was also a household TV name. Like people were saying above - cycles.

    And that was my point. They could definitely sue him after the fact. I'm not disputing that. My argument was how can they stop him beforehand?

  5. Re:If they're not operating illegally on HBGary Federal Forces Aaron Barr Out of DEFCON · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Unless the attorneys at HBGary can see the future, they don't know what he is going to discuss. How do they know he'll be blabbing about trade secrets? Who knows, he could just go up on stage and start cracking jokes about nothing for the entire time, and that, he has every right to do.

  10. Re:4.5 kg isn't so much on Do Two-Screen Laptops Make Sense? · · Score: 1

    Why even have the monitors built in to the laptop. Why not carry a lightweight laptop, and if you need an extra monitor, Toshiba http://us.toshiba.com/computers/accessories/mobile-monitor/ has ultra portable monitors that you can hook up? The laptop and extra monitor probably weigh less than the behemoth in TFA, and you can leave the extra monitor at home for the times that you don't need it.

    If something's not done, then it will come down to something even more draconian - war.

    And how does this work across multiple devices? I have my work laptop, home laptop, and home workstation. From the summary, I don't see how this can work.

    They might not fix it, but at least their brother/cousin/nephew or biggest campaign contributor will at least get a fat multi-billion dollar contract to "try" and fix it.

  15. Re:The real problem on IT Crises vs. Vacation: Sometimes It Isn't Pretty · · Score: 3, Insightful

    It sounds like you are really in a downward spiral here. You need to start looking after yourself more and putting your foot down. It is commendable that you work so hard at your job, but at what cost? See about taking your original, planned vacation. Fill your boss and coworker in on the upcoming deployment, and let them handle it.

    Good idea. They could even block off certain IP subnets to be used just for internal networks.

  18. Re:Funny That on TSA Employee Stole $50k Worth of Electronics · · Score: 5, Informative

    Actually, if you really want it to get there, buy a starter pistol and pack it in the suitcase. Then, you have to declare that you have a firearm when you check it. Believe me, that suitcase will have tons of security. Nobody will steal anything from there. Also, since it's a starter pistol and not a real pistol, you don't have to worry about the gun laws in the state you are traveling to.

    TV doesn't count. It's seeing it in real life. And as for seeing vinyl, in the last 20 years, the only place that I've seen a vinyl record is a DJ at a club. So, I can definitely see somebody in their early 20s having never seen (IRL, not TV) a vinyl record, especially if they don't go to any clubs, or at least the ones where you can get up close an personal with the DJ.
