I just paid 40 dollars (almost 28 euros if Google is to be trusted) for the Humble Bundle. The money went mostly to the charities with some to the humble bundle itself to cover their costs (I always download everything for Windows and Linux). I already own Trine and both Shadowgrounds games on Steam so Frozenbyte already got some money from me. ^_^

I don't remember when I bought them on Steam but it would have been during a really nice sale so I got them on a discount to begin with. I'm okay with the DRM in Steam because it makes keeping track of my games easier and more convenient, even if I do now have an entire hard drive dedicated to nothing but the 147 games I have on Steam. That's fine with me, though, because it's a gaming machine to begin with.

I already own Trine and both Shadowgrounds games on Steam, so I'll just use this as a donation to EFF and Child's Play and so I can play Splot when it comes out. I always love the Humble Bundles whenever they come out.

If you can root the Kindle and remove the Ads then this may be worth it. If not, or if you don't want to, it'll have to go more than $25 off...

Really, Amazon will be making much more than $25 per Kindle over the life of the devices showing ads, so they should make the devices cheaper than that. It's not like they're going to be losing money.

I'm technically signed in to Facebook 24 hours a day - I connect to FB chat via Pidgin.

There's no actual accusation of it being from a movie in either article. One commenter posted this which is dated a few months ago (picture, not the comment). It seems plausible that this photo could be a stock photo from something, but the article sure does a very poor job of reporting that.

Not somebody else's.
If you are using a laptop that's not yours I can understand some paranoia, but that's not what I said.

He's the kinda guy that puts a Post-It note over his laptop's webcam because he doesn't like it staring at him.

$20 for a GPS jammer? $25 for a cell phone jammer? I wish I would've caught these when they were on sale at Meritline - I would've got one of each. They're cheap enough that the range probably isn't that great (the GPS jammer claimed 10-15M and probably isn't even that) but for that price I wouldn't care.

I graduated from my local ITT Tech with a Bachelor's Degree in Information Systems Security as the valedictorian of my class. It took me a year to find a job and not only do I feel like I am COMPLETELY unprepared for a simple IT job but I was also informed that I was hired mainly because the senior IT guy here said he thought we'd get along well (and we do, which is nice), so that basically means I got lucky and my credentials had nothing to do with it. I've got a sizable debt still, but I haven't been out of my old retail job for a full year yet. 30K a year is double what I made in retail, but not quite what I was expecting (I am entry-level, though). All-in-all, I liked that the teachers worked in the field and really did know their specific subjects inside and out (for the most part), but I didn't like anything else about the school.

How are you being abused via Facebook if you can't get on Facebook to be abused?

Didn't someone in America try to name their kid ESPN (pronounced ehs-pin) and get sued over it, or was that just a rumor?
