Comment Information Overload (Score 1) 2

It would seem to me U.S. media would NOT publish this story, and show the world how vulnerable we are to attack. DUH! I love the internet, and how the flow of information is rapid, but sometimes I think it also hurts us. This article is why. This should not have been disclosed in my opinion.

Submission + - App That Will Control Your PC With Twitter

smilnrt writes: PC Mag reports on a supposed app that will allow you to control your pc with your cell phone using Twitter. Simply type in or a few other one word commands, and the pc will do what you tell it to. In the future it is hoped this app will allow you to move, copy, and delete files. I don't know, maybe it is because I am a "security professional," but this sounds like bad news. A hackers delight.

Comment Operation Phish Phry???!!! (Score 1) 132

My goodness that is about as dumb as an undercover officer wearing one of those tee-shirts that says "Police" on it! I mean, if I were into malicious computer activity, (disclaimer: I am not involved in malicious computer activity, nor do I condone or recommend it, and know of no one who is, nor have I ever knowingly engaged in it) I sure as heck would not name my activity after what I am doing. Let's call it the "Biggest Worm Ever", think we'll get caught???!!! Dumb, just palin (not a typo) dumb!

Comment F Lock Is Just Dumb! (Score 1) 939

Why re-do the functionality of the function keys? Why did they stop there? Don't be half stupid, why not go all out stupid and create an alpha lock key? Thought you hit the letter a? No, now with alpha lock on it's the letter m! Really dumb, I never use it, I stick with the original uses of my f-keys, thank you. 8-)

Comment What Do I Own If Purchasing This Gaming Service? (Score 1) 136

A piece of "cloud?" I mean if this thing goes belly up, then what do you have? Years later (so long as the console still functions) you can play your Atari 2600 games, your Odyssey games, etc. Some may laugh at you but hey you own it, and can play until your gaming heart is content. I think this will be the "Betamax" or "HD-DVD" of the gaming world.

Journal Journal: More Random Crap

I believe that real men are not on Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, and the others for the following primary reason: If you don't start any crap, there will be no crap! What I mean is if you are married, value that marriage, but realize "hey I did somethings before this marriage my wife just DOES NOT need to know," then you will not join. Let's say one of your old "flames" (the freaky one that you would not bring home) finds you and requests to be your "friend." Stop that crap before it starts.

Journal Journal: Some Ole Random Stuff (that matters of course)

Is it just me, or does "texting" annoy the crap out of you?! I mean sometimes I feel like I am reading the sentence of either a complete idiot who has no grammar skill, or possibly a former slave. Dis, dat, doe = this, that, though. I just can not succumb to this abuse of the King's magnificent English language, I refuse to!!! Okay, I vented my primary frustration with modern technology. My father, I now am!!!
