All the people here on /. should know that most recent-ish 'Linksys' gear is supported by aftermarket firmware; DD-WRT and Tomato among others. Granted, a lot of people might not know the difference, but they run much much better than the shit that ships on them.
Hell, I'm still using a WRT54G from forever ago, and it's been online almost constantly (barring my tweaking and futzing up the install occasionally) since mid-2005. No slow-downs, no hiccups (not counting misconfigurations), etc, etc. And this is old old MIPS with 16MB RAM, guys. You know in the newer (WRT120N was mentioned above) hardware should at the very least perform as well as previous products, if not better. But it doesn't. Flash your firmware, and see the difference. Seriously. I'm sure if they cam pre-installed with something like Tomato, out-of-the-box, Linksys wouldn't have this weird brand identity crisis. But of course, Cisco and open-source are at polar opposites of the world, it seems. Also, WTF Slashdot? It's 2012, please get a WYSIWYG editor, instead of arcane HTML formatting and such. Line breaks.

Uhm, 348,000,000,000 * 40 = 13,920,000,000,000....NOT 100,000,000,000 Also, 128-character passwords seem like retarded overkill, even if a system really allows it, but the paranoid will throw the tin foil hats on :)

If you are going to use the Windows Firewall, because it's preloaded and free, you can download an add-on for it called TinyWall (http://tinywall.pados.hu/) and can add applications, define what they can and can't do, with what and when. Allow certain ports via TCP/UDP? Allow certain EXEs but not others to access the network? Done. And it's pretty easy to use, honestly. And it's super lightweight, in terms of resources. And you can prevent modifications if you want, via a password to the settings themselves. And import/export rulesets, in case you need to nuke-from-orbit! :)

SNK stuff. You know, NeoGeo, and the MVS arcade systems. Of course, for the MVS, they can charge like $.50 per play or something to get some extra funding. But then I imagine the incredible amount of space required for a couple of these, and I just cry :(

Seriously, this is not news, nor is it some kind of revelation of the human condition. Where do I go to get money for such inane studies?

There's Mozilla's Browser ID, which is uses nowhere....Google, Yahoo, et al seem to have been 'bundled' into the Disqus 'platform' across various sites. I think it's more that no one wants to give up 'control' of their user data and associated metrics to a single open standard. By forcing users to continue to sign up for their 'services' they get to collect whatever they want through the use of EULAs, ToS', etc. For their own ends, of course.

I went on the site, even the ModDB page, through the forums they've got, too! What are the system requirements for this game? I understand it's based on id Tech 2/3, but that doesn't matter, being that they've added a bunch of new, modern, fun stuff!

Anyone?

It'd have to be closer to full-time than my current night job is. The pay would have to be higher the farther away it is, but I'd also negotiate the highest pay I could regardless of distance. Not that there is much leverage on my end, due to the lack of buzzword skills :(

You guys and your polls make me cry inside sometimes.....

about:memory

Though the implementation they have now isn't granular enough to set loose specific sets of memory from a plug-in here, or a process there. Just a 'minimize memory' button at the bottom.

As for the OP, I'm gonna go with 'no'.

It's old(ish) hardware. Running XP on a Thinkpad T43p. Whenever I scrounge up the monies (and a newer, longer-term, better paying, job) I'll probably get a newer set of hardware. Whether that be a small-ish desktop running one of AMDs new A8 Fusion chips, or a laptop, I have not decided yet.....

Never understood the left/right nuances, so I generally don't talk politics to that many people, honestly.....

All you need to know? Assuming most use Windows.

I dunno what companies you've seen with their lax policies, but every single day I go into work, I do a backup. One day a week I do two. It's a 6-day rotating backup.

Then again it's a newspaper......Take that as you will.

There is nothing telling me why Comodo is #1. No testing methodology, cost, what the colors mean, etc.

Nice way to get page views on your blog, though!

Have you asked if any code you've written is yours? Whether it belongs to you or not is something the company must decide, I think. Especially if they were written, tested, etc, on company time.

If anything, I think, if you have written them, and they are not company-specific (but possibly industry-specific), you could just release them, whether binary-only, or open source, is up to you.

Can you re-create, or modify the existing code without your employers' resources (specific IDEs and their quirks, etc)?
