  1. External Password Entry? on Encrypted USB Key With TOR, Firefox · · Score: 1

    You mean like a projected keyboard? That would be really cool and I was just saying if you went onto a public terminal and they had a keylogger just for the sake of having one and then someone stole the information and then your IronKey.

    Thanks for the input anyway!

  2. Ok, but what if... on Encrypted USB Key With TOR, Firefox · · Score: 2, Insightful

    What if the computer has a keylogger and it logs the password that unlocks your data? Am I missing something?

  3. NOOO!! on Thunderbird to Leave Mozilla Foundation · · Score: 1

    That is all...

  4. Mod Parent Insightful on Will MySpace Disrupt Television? · · Score: 1

    ...seriously

  5. Eh? on Auction Site To Sell Security Vulnerabilities · · Score: 1

    The real question is who is going to give out their personal information upon signing up for this site? Doesn't sound like a very good place to be submitting your name, address and etc. to does it?

    I think most of the executives have a better wardrobe though.

  7. Who would use this? on Companies That Clean Up Bad Online Reputations · · Score: 1

    I highly doubt anyone with a good grasp on the internet would pay for a service like this. I think most people know that places such as Google are not obligated to do anything.

    If you can't get your information off of Google, is it even worth the effort? I think not.

  8. Re:Hmmm. on Microsoft, Sony Clash Over Vista Turbo Memory · · Score: 1

    Oh crap... I don't know what happened but everything on my web server is gone... And it didn't read my mail :(.

  9. Re:"By winning, he's lost." on Man Sues Gateway Because He Can't Read EULA · · Score: 3, Informative

    Interesting article but I would have to say that it hardly has any substance to back up the fact that some high school drop outs are successful. First of all, most of those dropouts in the article are people who dropped out at a college/university level. Secondly, could they only find 6 successfully dropouts? On top of that one of them dropped out of college in the 50s! Many people didn't even attend college in the 50s. I don't think that article could argue that dropping out of high school leaves plenty of opportunities in current times because in all reality, it doesn't.

    Try getting a job without a high school diploma... I'll be seeing you at McDonald's.

    Some people are just backwards...

  11. Re:5D 09 7F B4 60 B8 FB BD D0 2B 6A A3 F2 F6 AB CA on Own Your Own 128-Bit Integer · · Score: 1

    Hey... that's been my WPA key for 6 months now - prior art, right?

  12. Agreed on Warner Brothers Pulls Canadian Previews · · Score: 1

    Though I know the "proper" term is trailers, everywhere I've lived has called them "previews".

    The only place I've truly seen them called trailers is online.

    I've never heard of early showings being called "previews". I always thought they were called "screenings".

  13. Re:Encrypted ? on TSA Loses Hard Drive With Personnel Info · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I'm sure whoever stole it knows what it was mounted to previously.

  14. Security Campaign on AOL Security Compromised by Teenager · · Score: 1

    So much for AOL's security ad campaign...

    Oh man, this is some good stuff. I'm gonna go read my programming books :).

    lol, Hackers was on last night :)

  17. Halo? on Most Impressive Game AI? · · Score: 1

    Conversely, games that are lauded for their fantastic AI are sometimes based on very simple algorithms (e.g. Halo 1).
    People actually think Halo 1 had "fantastic" AI? You're joking, right?
  18. Fidel? on Dept. of Energy Rejects Corn Fuel Future · · Score: 1

    You mean he's still alive?.... huh. Cool.

  19. Who Uses a Mouse? on Dvorak to Apple - Stop The iPhone · · Score: 1

    Seriously... I'm on John's side and have been ever since Apple started selling computers that came with mice! What a ridiculous idea that was!!!

  20. I wish I were an astronaut... on NASA Engineers Work on New Spacesuits · · Score: 1

    so I could give a damn.

  21. RealTV? on Open Source Image De-Noising · · Score: 1

    Some of those "improved" images look like frames taken from a RealTV episode. You know the videos that were shot using .5 mega pixel video cameras and cell phones.

  22. lol on Windows For Warships Nearly Ready · · Score: 1

    Thank you for bringing some light into my day. Hopefully not too much more though.

  23. 0 Day Flaw on Windows For Warships Nearly Ready · · Score: 1

    I don't mean to troll or anything but would a 0 day flaw allow someone to remotely connect and launch strikes? Sounds like a bad movie to me... or has it already been done?

  24. Great.... on Suppressed Report Shows Cancer Link to GM Potatoes · · Score: 1

    The next thing you know, you'll be seeing commercials for the "All-new, Lexus Legume with 5 star frontal and side-impact crash ratings [small print]unless it has been boiled[/small print]."
