Sentences as passwords are only applicable in environments that allow such things.
You can use a long sentence and use only the first letter of words and the punctuation. That's what I do.

Also track down the "Anonymous" group for hate speech against Scientologists, etc.
Well, how about tracking down scientologists for hate speech against "Anonymous" then?
Let's not. See what offends me about this whole thing is that it's so obivious. If they'd just targeted America, it could have been anyone. But 'whoever' it was had to go and hit South Korea too, at the same time. Who hates both the US and South Korea?
It could be the Martians.
It's a total waste of money buying in
There are lots of narcistic people in the world and they may pay for all those fans who follow their precious self.
Should have been 40 years, idiot. Just bringing the laptop to China is shear stupidity.
Not really relevant. The data can be copied from it just as easily in the US.
Even the " prohibited from sharing sensitive data with foreign nationals" condition is a fluff, since a foreign nation can simply pay a US citizen to get the data.
The secret service builds a datacenter and announces that in mainstream media?
It can be a ploy to divert public attention from other more important clandestine projects to this decoy.
Personally I don't really approve of piracy because it hurts Open Source alternatives and wouldn't trust anything downloaded from PB to not have trojans on it these days.
AVIs of Lost episodes are trojan-free.
They'd gladly blab about a kidnapping if it wasn't one of their own. It does, after all, sell newspapers.
True. There is lots of information in newspapers and Wikipedia in general which can get people in trouble. Why select one individual? Where do we draw the line on what should be supressed?
Maybe a committe should be set up to prescreen Wikipedia edits, so they don't harm anyone on the planet...
Proper editors make it configurable, so it's up the user.

Proper editors don't futz around with your capitalization.

Just because he doesn't see a reason for Caps Lock out there in his little business world doesn't mean the key isn't highly useful to application developers. I'll point out SQL capitalization standards as just one example.

Well, if you have a proper editor you don't need to type those keywords in caps, because the editor does it for you automatically.
The original function of Caps Lock is nuisance. If you are on Windows you can set Caps Lock to do an actually useful thing which makes your life a whole lot easier:

I guess all of the forced bank account withdraws are proof online voting could never work!
ATMs have cameras installed on them. You don't propose we should install cameras into every home, so that we can be sure the voter is not coerced, do you?
They're trying to compete with Youtube?... Compete for what? The privilege of losing $1.65 million per day?
Well, it's a great privilege. Not everyone can do that.
The kicker of all this electronic voting is that is easy. It really is, it's a damn simple problem to solve. Even online voting.
It's fucked up constantly by the processes we all abhor, and there should be a lesson in there for us. But electronic voting is actually a very simple problem to solve.
Technically maybe. But voter coercion is a hard problem. You can't check remotely whether the vote was forced while you can easily control it in the voting booth.
