I don't have a "side." I don't care about Snowden, although I wish him the best in his country-hopping endeavours. What I care about is that these leaks are analyzed and outrage pours in from the public. That hasn't

While I have no interest in pornography, this is one step closer to fascism. I worry what will happen next. Journalism filters? Blog filters? International video filters? And if this is the case, then what is the result for neighboring coun

Do not stereotype teenagers. I am merely fifteen years old, and if you take a look through my comment thread you may find more insight than you expected. Yes, most in my generation are shallow and passive; but that doesn't mean all are

I've seen it. It doesn't really matter, because I've also set up a randomizing encryption passcode generator that only works with a synthetic amino acid solution that corresponds to my genome that I carry in a vial around my

The more pressing problem is that many tough solutions aren't solved by committee, they're solved by leadership and expertise, a point where Congress fails, the executive branch fails, and where the roots of government (e.g. Const

It depends. Usually, on any Windows box, random sleep wakeups and unverified internet use is usually a sign of malware or a trojan horse. Running AVG twice can be enough to fix it, but sometimes, they've already penetrated the boot pro

Obama's speech is obviously canned, while Biden's is the opposite. He is speaking candidly and openly, because he knows that it's the truth. The President, on the other hand, is hesitant and only chooses neutral words. Amazin

If it was done through a root account, then sudo su and accessing a shell history should do the trick, right? Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Well, if you're on any arbitrary Unix system with bash installed, just open up a terminal emulator and keep hitting the up arrow key. It should give you a full history of all commands entered. Unfortunately, there's no date taggin

Assuming that the NSA doesn't possess quantum computers, perhaps 4096-bit PGP email hosted on a local mail server, along with SELinux, full disk encryption and a strong firewall that blocks all incoming connections, should do the trick

This is going to sound dickish, but technically it's " the NSA," not just "NSA". "National Security Administration doesn't need Microsoft to break into computers." vs "The National Security Admi

Might not be a script kiddie. I know that the Washington Post calling something like this "sophisticated" is kind of ridiculous, and the reporter's reaction is only more absurd, but there could be some real motives here. Busi

It's inconsistent with the entire OS. Having 7 or 8 apps look completely different is inconsistent and jarring when you shift from app to app. And the linen was just plain fugly. We live in an age where flatter, more consistent UI desi

The scientific method has advanced so far in the past century that any new "breakthrough" without proper empirical evidence and due process of science makes me feel like it's just quack science. Forget about the journals, for

I hate how something as interesting as this is ruined by partisanship and egocentric control-freakism. Why is this Congressman pushing the blame on Obama solely? He is part of the problem, and it's this "us vs. them" attitude

Rot13 may not be, but a randomized numerical substitution cipher along with good encryption should be enough to throw off anyone snooping. It is complicated to explain to your family that they should make their emails a jumbled mess, howeve

This is why I think Apple will do better with Cook, Ive, Federighi, and Schiller as the frontmen. They can collaborate and judge what's best uninterrupted by the arrogant ramblings of Holy Jobs.

I think this will be the final nail in the coffin for MySpace. They don't listen, they don't know what customers want, they don't care, and they won't budge. I predict Facebook will see a similar demise. The nature of

DuckDuckGo gets better results than Google, especially for research, but I've been extremely spoilt by Google's extra features like images, maps, and YouTube integration. I know you have "bang-cuts" like !g and !i, but i

Calendar.app in OS X now looks pretty much exactly like it does in iOS 7. Same color scheme, same typeface, etc... Notes is still yellow, but the top bar is now polished grey to match in with the rest of the UI, so it really isn't that

I think it depends on the type of music you listen to. For example, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_uCL1_YcRwk is always able to get me to stop thinking about other things and concentrate on the task at hand. I notice I do

This really sounds like something straight out of some Ludlum book, which, incidentally, I loved. This is by no means advice for Snowden, but it's worth a shot. When you're on the run, burn your passport. Get rid of your wallet ex

Not quite; my parents both organize pictures into folders very well and organize them by date and tag them with metadata. They don't do the same for documents, but because every document of theirs tends to be unique, there really isn&#
