I'd have to smile and nod politely if he told me that in person. When a country must entirely cut itself from the internet to deal with incoming cyber attacks, I think the issue is much more serious that that politician understands. Fo

How wobbly would it seem if he moved next door to you and your family? There is a reason people scream to prevent parole and scream to have life sentences for sexual predators, my friend.

That's much nicer than the zero bonus news and "consolidation of working groups" news that my company announced. Translated, they've got stuck something in the wringer. Time to start looking. It's always rough being

"Let's also not forget that these employees quickly become unemployable in any other sector." That also happens to people who get sucked into defense industries. The security is false for many, though, because they are expend

I have more faith in the AV package I use than in Mozilla's part-time coders. The people producing my AV package do just that, 8 hours a day, all year long. How much time does Mozilla's AV coders have? How much practical experienc

It's taken a very long time for this development to come to fruition. There was a lot of discussion about some sort of blastproofing for the cargo containers after Lockerbie (Pan AM 103). It's a nice idea. Containing a troublesome

Remember that both aircraft are also moving at very high speed. It can take several seconds depending on range and vectors. Does anyone know which missile they used? This is troubling to me. Why didn't they just intercept and escort hi

Well of course they are. Everyone knows that shotguns purchased in stores are much more dangerous than AK-47s purchased from a smuggler in a back alley.

The article seems to forget that encryption isn't a requirement to perform evil actions. Code words/phrases and various ciphers have been used to pass information and make plans for hundreds of years. They don't require any e

That cheaper price would be great. Tracking's not much of an issue for me as they'd only see me hit my VPN service.

That's not the issue with FiOS. Their asymetric bandwidth offering is configured that way on purpose, it isn't the hardware. They offer symetrical bandwidth if your line a business connection. I've had FiOS residential and bu

You'll find that some of Barracuda'a PC VPN products also leave behind massive log files.

That's true, and it's great if you can use it. I don't care for their content delivery.

That's a wise decision. The stars, sun, and moon are hard to electronically spoof or jam.

Rather than asking brewers to cut back on a value-added product, California should ban all companies from bottling the state's shrinking fresh water supply.

Amazon isn't losing any money on prime shipping. If you look at "other purchase options you can see that many other vendors offer the same products for about $3.99 less, but charge for shipping. Amazon's merely hiding the shi

Their site is infected with "Let's Make Big Fat Pages" syndrome with overlarge graphics and little text. A few paragraphs work faster. I don't have time to watch a video on every throwaway site I visit from a link. EDIT:

You could start by adding what you do, what your website does, and how it works to the ABOUT page. The cutesy pictures on the ABOUT page say thousands of words of nothing.

If you've reported your concerns in writing (email), keep a local copy in a pst and take it home. CYA. I don't know how the situation is now (US or UK), but in past years the BSA could show up in the US with warrants and a US Mars

That may be, but inflated pricing on eBooks will put the publishers in the boat as the music industry. By your logic, there should not be any 99 cent MP3 files. They should all be priced as though they were 12 inch singles. Files are files.

If they determine that the random signal contains any sort of information, even if we can't understand it, I think they'd simply be happy to have confirmation of another civilization. Getting a chunk of signal with modulation or o
