    You clearly have not seen some of the things the army is capable of.

  2. Fear Eh? on Pentagon Working on "Human Fear" Weapons · · Score: 5, Insightful

    You mean a squad of guys busting into your house with sub-machine guns doesn't cause this effect?

  3. Re:30 years? on Y2K38 Watch Starts Saturday · · Score: 1

    Its 2038 already? I must have missed it.

  4. Re:The police don't like public evidence. on Surveillance Rights for the Public? · · Score: 1

    Shouldn't the US and state governments be accountable to any and all public scrutiny? Certainly individuals who are employed by the government should have the same protections as ordinary citizens under the law, but not in their role as an official representative of the government. Opposition to complete government transparency only leads to a loss of legitimacy in the public eye. How hard is it to do the right thing as a representative of government?

    Check out LED Christmas lights.

  6. Re:Where's the white noise generator? on Loophole in Windows Random Number Generator · · Score: 1

    White noise RNGs aren't perfect. In some environments, white noise can be predicted/replicated. Consider the average server room, which produce the rather constant sound of small fans going at high RMPs. For more detailed information on RNG predictability and other exploits on digital communication, I recommend "Silence on the Wire" by Michal Zalewski.
