Why only filename ? they seem to have no encryption whatsoever....

Gruss

This slashdor random Be ta is annoying more than Win 8

Today, Linux and Libreoffice is a better alternative than Windows and MS Office...
Not that the usability of the linux desktop linux went up, no, it ramained at a good level, it's more the useability of MS products who s(t)inks dramatically.

>> A few dozen people might wind up with cancer someday because Japan uses nuclear power.

Nope. The first years it was close to 600 in the direct vincinity:

The number is not considering the widespread ingestion of contaminated agricultural produce, and is exponential over the years (or at least over the firt 300 years)

On the long run, Fukushima takes more lives than the tsunami. Much more.

Basically, i could live without any software at all.

If You Don't Like Our Energy Policies, Don't Buy Apple Products.

>> A shuttle can lift 30ton into LEO.
Yep. Somehow, LEO does not sound like a good idea. All things you send to LEO come back to earth within years

as soon as this happens:

with one ton of Pu onboard, we are all dead.

>> First of all, any wall or barrier can be breached

You are totally right !
And there is another point to it : radioactive waste is releasing various (radioactive, and explosive) gasesover time. You cannot hold these gases forever, so you have to vent them into the athmosphere >> a barrier is not only imposible, but it's also not desirable over the long term.

That is BS.
Robots did not work in '86. Today's electronics and plastics are much more vulnerable to rad than in '86.
it will inevitably end like that : http://www.archifiction.org/34...

All those years and you didn't try LO.
MS. Office is really not any more at the level of Libreoffice...

Beta is crap. We want Slashdot back.
