  1. Uhh, Win 10 enterprise is available now on Ask Slashdot: Can You Disable Windows 10's Privacy-Invading Features? · · Score: 1

    Running it on the machine I'm using to post. Our group got the enterprise iso's and cdkey on the 29th. I did a custom install and said no to all of the bullshit options. So far I'm not seeing any ads.

  2. Silly fascists have no sense of humor on FBI Releases Its Files On DEF CON: Not Amused By Spot-the-Fed · · Score: 4, Funny

    someone needs to throw a pie at em, liven things up a bit : )

  3. only one thing to do on Feds Attempt To Censor Parts of a New Book About the Hydrogen Bomb · · Score: 1

    Put a torrent up of the book, and tell fed.gov to go fuck themselves. Silly fascists seem to think that H bombs are still super secret tech.

    Hate to say it Feds, but 60+ year old tech is hardly a secret.

  4. I love when fascists whine on Justice Department: Default Encryption Has Created a 'Zone of Lawlessness' · · Score: 1

    it tells me to keep doing what I'm doing. Thanks to the Stasi errr NSA, I've learned a HELL of a lot more lately about TLS, and my mail server now only uses the very best possible encryption routines.

  5. Broken on 4.4.4 on Microsoft Makes Office Mobile Editing Free As in Freemium · · Score: 1, Informative

    Unable to install it on my new Droid Turbo. Other people in forums reporting the same.

    Smooth move M$

  6. Beyond the law? Unjust law is no law at all on FBI Chief: Apple, Google Phone Encryption Perilous · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Considering the FBI's long and rich history of fascism and acting against the US Bill of Rights (starting with Hoover, and going downhill from there), not to mention the NSA's rampant (and blatantly illegal) domestic spying....

    I'll damn well act against their silly rules and regulations any well damn time I feel like it.

    Every American should be encrypting the hell out of anything they own, and demanding that companies do likewise with their products and services. The sooner we render the Gestapo and Stasi impotent, the better.

  7. Re:Heads should roll on 850 Billion NSA Surveillance Records Searchable By Domestic Law Enforcement · · Score: 2

    Wrong agency - CIA and NSA are different agencies with (somewhat) different missions.

    That said, the entire NSA, and along with anyone who enabled them, needs to fired / jailed / etc for blatant and unending violations of the Bill of Rights and federal law in general.

  8. Re:Can we move away from guns already? on A Look at Smart Gun Technology · · Score: 1

    Talk to Suzanna Hupp about that, she might disagree with you.

  9. Re:Can we move away from guns already? on A Look at Smart Gun Technology · · Score: 1

    ever needed a seatbelt in your life?
    Or a fire extinguisher?
    What about a Automated External Defibrillator ?

    Just because you've never needed a firearm doesn't mean you (or someone else) won't need one at some point in time.

  10. surprise, surprise, surprise on AOL Finally Admits They Were Hacked · · Score: 2

    Aol has always been pretty spammy, but they've gotten out of control lately, and as usual, ignoring the problem.

    I lost patience with them years ago, and started firewalling any netblock from them that was causing problems.

    Solved a lot of problems, and since no one in their right mind uses them anymore, I'm not too worried about blocking anything legit.

  11. National Security Letters? on Government Sent 2,000+ National Security Letters To AT&T In 2013 · · Score: 2

    More like National Fascism Letters...

    I'm not surprised though, ATT has been the lap dog of the Fed.gov since day 1.

  12. Re:This is why company's block Amazon EC2. on Amazon and GoDaddy Are the Biggest Malware Hosters · · Score: 1

    Agreed. Spamazon's EC2 garbage servers are firewalled on my servers. Spamazon ignores and /dev/null's abuse complaints, so I nuke all their EC2 ranges.

    Same with Spamdaddy.

    Run a network sewer, get firewalled. Only way to protect your own network.

  13. What a surprise on Khosla, Romm Fire Back At '60 Minutes' Cleantech Exposé · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Like most press, 60 minutes engages in the run of the mill "assault journalism" thats heavy on accusations, and light on the facts. Anyone who takes ANY journalist at face value needs to be hit with a clue by 4.

  14. Re:Ahhh more evidence of militerized police. on Dallas PD Uses Twitter To Announce Cop Firings · · Score: 3, Interesting

    my guess, the one second rule is "no more then 1 shot fired per second"

    Many inexperienced shooters try to fire too quickly (and not fully in control), and hit things they shouldnt, like target holders, other peoples targets, etc.

    Personally I hate rules like that, as it interferes with many of my drills, but I'm also a competition handgun shooter, so I've got a little more experience with controlled double taps, Mozambique drills, etc, compared to the average joe.

  15. Re:Instead of a blog note how about some info? on Java Spec Compatibility Weakened Android's TLS Encryption · · Score: 1

    The current stable version of Chrome supports TLS 1.2 out of the box.

    Firefox 24 has support for TLS 1.2, but you have to explicitly enable it.

  16. Re:Government morons - just fix the problem on Pentagon Ups Hacking Accusations Against China · · Score: 1

    true, but why make it easy for them?

    Of course, if fed.gov wasn't a giant pack of idiots, they wouldn't have this problem in the first place.

  17. Government morons - just fix the problem on Pentagon Ups Hacking Accusations Against China · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Null route all the Chinese networks, problem solved. Worked great on my mail server, amount of spam I got dropped massively.

  18. Re:Rather Have a Map of Assualt Rifle Owners on New York Paper Uses Public Records To Publish Gun-Owner Map · · Score: 2

    Move to California or NJ or CT or NY or MA, and you can enjoy your false sense of security.

    BTW, REAL assault weapons are almost impossible to get due to NFA of 1934 and Hughes of 86. What you're so terrified of are rifles that only LOOK like assault rifles. But considering the stupidity of your statement, I highly doubt you have the IQ to understand the difference.

  19. Re:Human Colonies on MESSENGER Probe Finds Strong Evidence of Ice On Mercury · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Mercury is in a nasty gravity well. It takes a LOT of energy per pound to land anything there.

    Not going to easy to land significant mass there.

  20. Re:Dumb law is dumb on Blocking Gun Laws With Patents · · Score: 1

    WRONG.

    A gun is designed to accelerate a lead and copper projectile. Some of these projectiles have properties that are suitable for stopping a medium sized mammal such as a deer or human. A deer rifle in 308 winchester would be an good example.

    And some are designed for totally different purposes. A rifle in 17HMR is not likely to kill someone if you shot them with it, but it's an excellent platform for small game such as rabbits, squirrels, etc.

    Stop spouting gun control bullshit and learn some REAL facts for a change.

  21. Re:Steal an encrypted radio on Pasadena Police Encrypt, Deny Access To Police Radio · · Score: 1

    Won't work. Remote key revocation is a major feature of this type of radio system.

  22. Shame they don't crack down on their spammers on Malaysia Mulls Compulsory Registration of Tech Workers · · Score: 1

    .MY is a spam cesspool, and has been for 10+ years now. Maybe if they destroy their IT industry, it'll fix the spammers too.

  23. Re:You won't reach the representative... on Reverse Robocall Turns Tables On Politicians · · Score: 1

    Fuck em. If they decide to be whores for a bunch of vote buying fascists and communists, that's their problem, not mine.

    They can get a real job doing something useful for a change.

  24. Back in the good old days of Syndicate..... on Why Aren't There More Civilians In Military Video Games? · · Score: 1

    I used to love taking a squad armed to the max with the latest in death dealing goodies, and wiping out everything that moved :)

    Anyone remember the mission where you were supposed to assassinate a political figure, and he's giving a speech to a HUGE crowd?

    Lets just say flame throwers were truly epic for that mission (evil grin).

  25. You mean people accept Russia network traffic? on Spammers Bribe Russian Officials · · Score: 1

    I thought by now that anyone with a clue firewalled anything and everything from Russia with a vengeance. Honestly, what worthwhile network traffic comes from there? Its nothing but bot nets, spams, and Mob networks (RBN, anyone?).
