  1. Re:Let's listen all the FUD... on MS05-039 Worm in the Wild · · Score: 1

    Hmmm ... SP2 is not affected ... maybe MS did do something right after all in SP2.

  2. What they left out ... on Internet Security Warnings · · Score: 1

    In fact, more than 275,000 developers have downloaded Windows CE Shared Source in an attempt to locate all the bugs in the software. This is another attempt by us to increase the security in our software thereby convincing our customers to stay with Microsoft.

  3. Re: Translation games on Slashback: Start, Trash, Explain · · Score: 1

    Glad to see I'm not the only one who plays games with babelfish :)
    Now if only they would make the UI a bit more user-friendly ...

  4. Re: proper destruction of documents on Slashback: Start, Trash, Explain · · Score: 1

    Plus the fact that shredded paper makes great mulch. Great way to deal with sensitive documents.

  5. Re:wait a minute... on Hacking the Fluorescent Light · · Score: 1

    C'mon, you just gave the game away, you're not supposed to give the feds the idea to use these lights!
    Guess I'd better find a new hobby ... ah well, saving the world was becoming hazardous to my health ... well my character at least :)

    PS: Splinter Cell rocks

  6. Just a thought on Making Fire From Water · · Score: 1

    It has been awhile since I have done any chemisty or physics, so my knowledge is a bit rusty, but would it be possible to use mains to kick start the process and then divert some of the hydrogen to generate more electricity?
    While yes, the process would never be self-sustaining, it would need mains power to keep it going, it should reduce the use of mains power.
    Further refines could be made by catching the waste water vapour, condensing it and then feeding it back into the system.
    Given that not all electricity is generated by fossil fuels (wind mills, nuclear, solar also contribute to mains power generation in some places), this has the potential to become a cleaner way of creating fire.
    On that, one other refinement could be to hook it up to solar panels (I have no idea how many you'd need) instead of the mains, which more cut fossil fuels mostly out of the process (there would just be the use of fossil fuels in the construction of various components).
    Just something to think on.
