Anti Terror Honor System 74

Fortunately for us, the FAA has imposed the honor system as our next best defense against terrorism. Hopefully this will allow them to increase the volume of non-bladder liquid I'm allowed to take on planes.

How To Replace FileVault With EncFS 65

Posted by timothy on Sunday February 14, 2010 @04:14PM from the for-secretive-tweakers dept.

agoston.horvath writes "I've written a HOWTO on replacing Mac OS X's built-in encryption (FileVault) with the well-known FUSE-based EncFS. It worked well for me, and most importantly: it is a lot handier than what Apple has put together. This is especially useful if you are using a backup solution like Time Machine. Includes Whys, Why Nots, and step-by-step instructions."

Digital broadcasts in the United States are much, much better than their analog equivalents.

Except where they're not. Which is a lot of places.

Personally, I don't see any compression artifacts at all on OTA digital broadcasts, HD or SD

You need a better television.
