  1. Re:kill them all on Saudi Arabia Set To Ban WhatsApp, Skype · · Score: 1, Troll

    I hate Islam as much as anyone who treasures freedom and abhors discrimination, but this is not the answer. There are some people who are only Muslims because leaving Islam is punishable by death, by law in most Islamic countries and in practice by "honour killings" throughout the world. Ideally all Muslims would realise that Islam is just the ravings of a power-mad pedophile war lord and has no place in a civilised world

    what people don't understand is that porn is a bad thing when there is too much exposure, so it does a lot of good for people to block their access or at least make it harder to access... too bad they'll never get any appreciation for it...

    People don't understand that because it isn't true.

    I remember that when AOL tried this initially it was not just the obvious, but things like breast cancer awareness charities, Scunthorpe tourist information, and "visit Penistone". The ineptness of filtering schemes was illustrated by my work's filter which responded to a search for "Sharp Calculators" with. "This site is deemed unsuitable- Reason: Violence and weapons". Yes like you might stab someone with a sharp calculator!

    But the NSA says it's just collecting the metadata on communications, not the actual communications. So while encrypting the message in your email may prevent them from (easily) reading your email, they still see that you sent or received an email and who it was coming or going to.

    That's why I started sending emails to your wife .... honest

  15. I think the key difference is the "everyone" on Majority of Americans Say NSA Phone Tracking Is OK To Fight Terrorism · · Score: -1, Flamebait
    The two questions from TFA were:

    NSA getting secret court orders to track the calls of millions of Americans to investigate terrorism

    and

    Should be able to track everyone's email to prevent the possibility of terrorism

    Well since there are 7,000,000 muslims in the USA, of course ">millions of Americans" should be monitored. These people follow a belief that explicitly calls for the destruction of non-Muslim societies and the establishment of a world-wide caliphate, and are responsible for many terrorist attacks, so it would be daft not to monitor them. Most other Americans are not a threat to society so monitoring them is not justified.

    The problem is that HP-UX is still the same today as it was in 1999.

    Seriously for a lot of financial institutions, etc. that is the attraction. Their core applications haven't date back to 1999 or before. Sure they have had enhancements but stable code on a stable system is a real plus for organisations where the core business remains unchanged.

    your typical home router that is still being bundled by ISPs doesn't support IPv6, it seems only 'high end' or after-market routers tend to do that, probably because the amount of firmware memory in these cheap routers is limited.

    Is the firmware for IPv6 necessarily much larger than that for IPv4? I would have thought that the complexity would be similar. On the one hand you don't need NAT, but on the other you need more complex filtering.
