Not only that, but I thought this was a crappy no-name blogpost until I took a second look. I thought the Penny Arcade column was supposed to be some a well-researched column, with a higher standard than most game journalism out there. This

Does red get you kicked out of the con or something? If not, this would turn into a game of who can collect the most harassment cards. If so, then people could simple kick out people they don't like.

Why is craigslist going after people who bring them traffic? Is it because they don't bring in much money themselves so they have to sell licenses? I've never really thought about craigslists business model. I assume it's almost entirely ad

When I saw that the extradition was postponed to March 2013 I figured it was another move by the US to draw this saga out as long as possible. It makes sense for Kim and his team to respond "screw that we're coming over now and you hurry th

My Honor's thesis has been in my Public folder for several years now and is even referenced in a paper. While I realize this probably isn't the most ideal location, it's served me well. If I understand this correctly I'm grandfathered in an

I'd love to see a writeup from Pinkie Pie on the steps and tools he used to find these bugs. Reversing write-ups are always entertaining to read.

If CISPA were to pass, what would stop someone from hacking into your local ISP and dumping a database on the web so all your friends can check out your surfing habits? If ISPs are required to start logging data like that there is no way it
