Comment Outlaw breathing (Score 1) 561
Yay, something new to be hysterical about! Finally! A friend of mine was locked up when he was in middle school. They used to get high by breathing heavily, then strangling each other until they passed out. They called it "getting high'. Outlaw breathing!!

Submission + - Wireless for the People in Your Neighborhood (recordsquest.org)
rhinokitty writes: Today I begun beta testing 510pen, a community wireless mesh network that allows people in the East Bay Area to share their Internet connection to create an open wireless infrastructure for, as they said on Sesame Street, "the people in your neighborhood." 510pen is partnering with Media Alliance and Cernio Technology Cooperative in order to create a non-profit member-benefit cooperative to manage the wireless network.
So far it has been great. I just cracked open my new wireless mesh gateway, the Model OM1P from Open Source Mesh Solutions, all I had to do to get setup was plug it in as a replacement for my old wireless router. Then I could get online using the SSID "open-mesh," go to 510pen.com and register. About five minutes after registering my wireless gateway updated itself and my new customized 510pen wireless mesh node was online. I also have a private wireless network I can use that isn't available to the public. I will be keeping a log of my connection and uptime, hopefully it helps the network.

Disable - Deactivate - Activate
This field lets you Activate or Disable the BIOS module interface of the optional Computrace (R) Service from Absolute(R) Software. The Computrace agent from Absolute Software is a service solution designed to help track assets and provide recovery services in the event the notebook is lost of stolen. The Computrace agent communicates with the Absolute Software Monitoring Server at programmed intervals to provide the tracking service. By activating the service, you consent to the transmission of information from and to your computer and the Absolute Software Monitoring Server. The Computrace service is purchased as a separate option and the monitoring Server will enable its agent security module through an interface provided by the BIOS. The Computrace tracking agent can only be used in the US, UK, Canada and Australia. Computrace(R) and Absolute(R) are registered trademarks of Absolute Software Corporation.
Disable = Permanently block the Computrace module interface.
Deactivate = Block the Computrace module interface (Default).
Activate = Permit the Computrace module interface.
The Absolute Anti-Theft solution is Disabled. You cannot change the setting.

BIOS "Rootkit" Preloaded In 60% of New Laptops 236
Keldrin_1 writes "Researchers Alfredo Ortega and Anibal Sacco, from Core Security Technologies, have discovered a vulnerability in the 'Computrace LoJack for Laptops' software. This is a BIOS-level application that calls home for instructions in case the laptop is ever lost or stolen. However, what the application considers 'home' is subject to change. This allows the creation of malware capable of 'infecting the BIOS with persistent code that survive reboots and reflashing attempts.' Computers from Dell, Lenovo, HP, Toshiba, Asus, and others may be affected."
