exactly. the criminals get them anyway but the innocent civilians cant protect themselves. do away with the gun laws and let people arm up to protect themselves and their families.

fun fact I did not do a poop for all of 8th grade. true story bro.
I found the mighty mouse/magic mouse really hard to use, but I really enjoy using the new trackpads, especially when enabling multitouch gestures.
whats wrong with the xbox controller? I think it fits really good and the finger triggers are in a good place. my ownly gripe is that there aren't more dpads.
does anybody use dual mice or track balls or track pads? that would be pretty awesome.
I think the greatest threat is not that passwords are too simple, but passwords are re-used.
I once queried one of my client's security tables to find the instances where multiple users had the same password (stored as a hash). Even though I expected some repetition, I was shocked at how many people had the same passwords.
I meant that a single user applies the same password to multiple sites. you're referring to many users who use the same password on one site.
which is what I do and what I tell everybody to do. it doesn't have to be hard, it can be a system that is easy to remember. It defeats the two biggest threats to a user: 1) brute forcing "123456" and 2) getting hacked on site X because somebody pwned your password on site Y.
I think the greatest threat is not that passwords are too simple, but passwords are re-used. cuz then it doesn't matter how secure your system is, if some other mofo is hacked and the user has the same pwd in both places, then you'll be compromised.
hint hint when you give users freedom to use a simple password that is easy to remember, they're more likely to use unique passwords. But when they have to use a c0mPleX! password, it will be reused because people's brains are only big enough for one complex password.
They can go through all the passwords with a leading capital letter in the same amount of time instead. (which is the obvious alteration 95% of users will make anyway)
I capitalize the first two letters, so I don't have this problem. Oh shizz jk jk jk I don't do that.
looks like I effed the url. https://takingsenseaway.wordpr...

Now I read Papers Please . similar content, unfortunately lacks the humor/absurdity of taking sense away.
One of my favorite blogs calls these BDO's "truth wizards". Too bad the blog is dormant, it was always good for a laugh. Www.takingsenseaway.com.
I spent two weeks in the UK recently, with their largely-unarmed police force in full showing (mind you, I also walked by Buckingham Palace and Parliament, where I saw very heavily armed cops). They know that the vast majority of their citizenry is similarly unarmed.
You know, I was in Beijing for the past week, and noticed the same thing. Lots of cops, but no guns. There were many military around tie amen square, posted as guards.they all had nightsticks, riot shields. And in some cases staffs like Donatello. But no guns.
That's right. Look at Dick Cheney. He has no tattoos either.

Why do Americans automatically accept that kicking the door down and holding everyone at gunpoint is a reasonable response to an anonymous 911 call?
Yes. This is the question that no one asks. Why we tolerate a culture in which police are empowered to kick in doors all the time.
Life is a healthy respect for mother nature laced with greed.
