  1. They are having trouble... on Nintendo Profits Up 72%, Sony's Down 94% · · Score: 5, Funny

    selling their rootkit...

  2. Well, it depends... on Securing a High School Windows XP Computer Lab? · · Score: 0

    What do they use the computers for? If this is a programming lab, you have different needs then if this a lab for English class. Any attempt at security should first begin with realizing what the user is supposed to be doing in the first place.

    Of course, this is slashdot, so could you install Linux on a few of them just to give the kids a taste?

  3. Doing good. on Google Campus to Become Solar-powered · · Score: 0

  4. Just say on ESR Says Linux Followers Should Compromise · · Score: 0

    No.

  5. GPL vs BSD? on GPLv3 - A Primer on Open Warfare in Open Source · · Score: 0

    The GPL means that the "collective" end user will get the most freedom. Yes, the "first" end user is limited that if he resells it, he needs to give his end user the same rights, and the same limitations. Compare that to the BSD license, the "first" end user gets it, resells it and his first end user has nothing? Yea, that's what viral means. But, I think its something more important. The GPL gives more rights to the users. BSD license gives more rights to developers. That's just the first iteration, GPL stays "free", longer. taking the GPL, give the user's rights philosopy, it's easy to tell why DRM CANNOT be allowed.

  14. Big Bang is not a theory on NASA Public-Affairs Appointee Resigns in Disgrace · · Score: 0

    It was proven wrong.
    Here I'll do it right now.

    Sound requires molecules to exist (it travels through them in waves).
    "It cannot travel through a vacuum (such as exists in outer space)" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound
    There was only 1 point from which the big bang "came from"
    No room for sound and a bang is a loud noise.
    No big bang.
