"pedometer" is an unfortunate pick, I'd say... I know it comes from the latin "pedes" which means "feet", but damn! you could call it "childfuckometer" as well...
We only desire to go home to our families in one piece.
which would be an appropriate statement if there was a war going on outside your door and your region is considered one of the most dangerous places on earth, like it is the case in Somaliland
for someone from america such a line just exposes paranoia...
yeah, WE are the GOOD guys!... there's nothing better than having a simple world-outlook
We don't seek to use violence to control other people, obtain their property or end their lives.
Iraq might disagree...

like america was some sort of militarized zone... like there was a war or every other person out there was following you with a chainsaw - get f*cking real!
if it's so easy distinguishing the good guys from the bad guys, then why do so many bad guys have weapons? maybe because it's NOT so easy to recognize them BEFORE they go nuts? and your so called "freedom" puts all the weapons and ammo into their hands, that they want... way to go...
That's a pretty funny signature line for someone that claims to hate American gun-laws. How effective do you suppose the revolution is going to be without weapons in the hands of those who are revolting?
maybe if you were a bit more well-read, you would understand that line... (just a hint: douglas adams)
So, you still have the death penalty...
fyi: the civilized world thinks you are bloodthirsty barbaric slaughterers... (which we also think for your gun-laws and your armed robbery of helpless countries)
the human life is the highest good there is so nobody - NOBODY (including the state) has the right to decide that someone deserves to die - even if that guy killed a lot of people.
I know this will cost me karma, but that can't stop me from telling the truth...
he hindered their crowd-control efforts [...] police wanted the man to send a tweet
so what I'm reading here is that the authorities are now trying to use the intarweb for controling the people, which is the exact oposite of what the internet (imho) is all about...
For people who don't have the ports open, you can use reverse-VNC connections (so you activate port-forwarding on YOUR side and launch your VNC client in listening mode)
for people with linux I use x11vnc --localhost (not XVNC, because I can't login to their accounts whithout them logging out, which is to much to ask for, for some people) over ssh tunnels (with public key encryption) to make the connection secure...
for people with windows... well... they have to live with unsecure connections (they activate the server only when needed - the linux people's machines are set up so that i can activate the server through ssh and they don't have to do anything...)
oh and I set up their routers to forward port 5901 to their port 5900 (so they're not found by IP-scans on port 5900) and to publish their IP via dyndns (so they don't have to find out their IP manually, luckily recent versions of the fritzbox firmware support dyndns:-) )
Why does the NSA work on Windows? They're paid with tax-money, they're paid for working for the benefit of the tax-payer. When they work on Windows, they work for the benefit of a corporation, that has more than enough money to pay for such development.
The code they produced belongs to the public, because the public paid for it! If Microsoft doesn't open that code, they're stealing from the tax-payer!
heise.de reported the same thing yesterday, pointing out that Yahoo lost more marketshare, than bing won (and google won marketshare, too). So given Microsofts collaboration with yahoo, this should rather read "Google takes marketshare from Microsoft+Yahoo!"...
The picture quality of DVDs is much better than the blu ray advertisements try to make you believe (at least on non-crap players) so if they sacrifice to much disk space for demos, the picture quality of the movies might get to close to the DVD quality to have a reason for a switch to blu ray...
Unlike Microsoft, Mozilla has a Bugtracker, which tells everybody about each and every fixed problem... the report doesn't say how firefox' vulnerabilities were counted, but why would they bother counting Patches (which they have to for IE), if
Bugzilla tells them everything they need in just minutes of selecting the report criteria?
as Window Snyder (former MS employee who later worked for mozilla for some time) pointed out: Microsoft puts multiple fixes in one patch, so multiple IE holes are counted as just one...

it works quite well, I might add...
The Pirate Bay has a .torrent for the bzipped (280 MB) file instead of your 700 MB one...
and it has 10 times more seeders...
I'm still loading, so I can't say for sure, that it's no fake (and not infected with something), but it has a good rating...
so since we already paid for parts of windows - shouldn't MS lower the prices?
Who cares? Noone is using Second Life anymore, except those marketing people who still think, they can advertise there...
and the last mention of it in mainstream media was 2-3 years ago (afaik)

the a-priori probability
is very low, but if you know there already is a bomb in it, you have to apply the conditional probability
so you gain no extra security from this measurement... sorry to disappoint you... </smart ass>
