  1. Re:Another aspect... on Australian Study Says Web Surfing Boosts Office Productivity · · Score: 1

    My wife regularly surfs the web at work, often news, and consistently finds stories that directly effect the industry she works in, sometimes her actual place of employment.

    It looks like you need to surf the web more and boost your grammar productivity.

  4. Re:We Need Chuck Bartowski on Vast Electronic Spying Operation Discovered · · Score: 1

    And I forgot to add that it is as pathetic as it sounds.

  5. Re:We Need Chuck Bartowski on Vast Electronic Spying Operation Discovered · · Score: 1

    Too late, Chuck already got clipped by Windows.

  6. Re:Just be safe. on Australian ISP Argues For BitTorrent Users · · Score: 1

    When encryption is outlawed, only outlaws will use encryption. This is the next step.

  8. Re:Wait Till They Get Verizon Routers Rooted on Botnet Worm Targets DSL Modems and Routers · · Score: 1

    Install sniffer between line and line in on Verizon router. Wait for update and capture traffic. Analyze traffic and get username password info. Use said info to secure new botnet. Definitely not FUD.

  9. Re:PDF on Researchers Demo BIOS Attack That Survives Disk Wipes · · Score: 1

    For some reason parent's post reminded me a lot of the TV show Chuck.

  10. Using tempest technology on Researchers Demo BIOS Attack That Survives Disk Wipes · · Score: 1

    I am looking for when an exploit is installed using electromagnetic induction, not just reading the bits remotely but modifying them.

    I can see it now. Everybody's computer will come preinstalled with a Faraday cage.

    Looks like instead of whack-a-mole we are playing whack-a-hole.

  11. Re:Why the hate? on MS Confirms Six Different Versions of Windows 7 · · Score: 1

    Nobody would care if Windows would come in 100 versions, all free and all having the full functionality, the problem is not in the number, it's in reducing the functionality and asking for money to get the "full version". It's basically a crappy shareware type of distibution that asks money even for the basic product and asks for more mone for "enhaced version"

    So what I really see here is the real problem you have with the product is that it isn't given out for free? There is already that option, you could pirate it, but do so at your own peril. So in summation, I fail to so your point.

  12. One step closer to a better lie detector on IBM Creates MRI With 100M Times the Resolution · · Score: 0

    These devices have been used experimentally to detect truth and lies. It would be interesting to note if the accuracy can be improved with a higher scanning resolution.

  13. Re:How?? on UK Police To Step Up Hacking of Home PCs · · Score: 1

    Under Windows Vista:

    Cancel or Allow?

    Spammed over and over again until you allow.

    That way they don't need a warrant since they have your permission.

  14. Why did this vision suddenly pop in to my head? on PETA Using Games To Spread Its Message · · Score: 2, Funny

    Of a game that involves showing how sausage is made. I seem to remember hearing that if you ever have seen it made you would never want to eat it.

    Of course they would probably make a game of hiding the sausage over and over again too. I fits with their mantra of going naked to draw publicity.

  15. Re:Why do "net neutrality" advocates on Net Neutrality Vets Join Obama FCC Transition Team · · Score: 1

    Well the government is akin to prune juice. Do you trust prune juice to regulate your series of tubes when needed?

  16. The Sumerian connection on UK UFO Sightings Declassified, Still No Intergalactic Relations · · Score: 1

    The ancient Sumerians had a Star Gate and in their cuneiforms a tale was told of a craft with a lapiz lazuli underbelly and inside it had walls that talked and gave advice. I can not find a direct link to the text at the moment.

  17. Just one step closer to hooking up to the internet on Brainwave Controlled Game From Square Enix · · Score: 1

    with our brains so we can get first post!

    Imagine someone's brain when it gets slashdotted. *winks

    Imagine a Beowulf cluster of peoples brains hooked up to the internet.

    When will the control work in reverse and extend to mind control?

  19. Re:System Requirements on Stargate Worlds Beta Begins Oct. 15th · · Score: 1

    The system requirements have yet to be determined, but you can get a pretty good idea what they are if you do a little research on the Unreal Tournament 3 engine.

  20. I can see the spam now on AMD Graphics Chips Could Last 10X To 100X Longer · · Score: 1

    Yes you too can extend your chip 10 to 100 times for the low price of $39.95!

  21. Electronic trail as well as paper trail on California Sec. of State Wants Open Source E-Voting Systems · · Score: 1

    This was not mentioned in the article. Voters should be issued a voter number and should be able to go online and verify the accuracy of their vote. The election judges should be able to do a printout and be able to go online and verify the paper matches the online data, with the help of a ballot watcher maybe. In cases of more than a 100 percent voter turnout, elections must done again.

  22. Call me cynical on RIAA Loses $222K Verdict · · Score: 4, Interesting
    but this is just what the *IAA needs to push through tougher legislation.

    And Judge Davis went further, "implor[ing] Congress to amend the Copyright Act to address liability and damages in peer-to-peer network cases..."

    How many people want to guess that "Copyright reform" turns draconian?

  23. I have a sneaking suspicion on Comcast Discloses Throttling Practices · · Score: 1, Redundant

    That the 250GB limit will not be applied to traffic within Comcast's own network. Can you say anticompetitive? I thought so.

  24. Did anyone else think of the Firefox film? on US Army To Develop "Thought Helmets" · · Score: 1
