So, the next time someone calls my home phone while I'm not home, I should file burglary charges against them... They should be charged with filing a false police report.

It's pure paranoia to think that a web (HTTP) crawler is doing something malicious by looking for open HTTP servers. That is like saying that a SMTP crawler looking for open mail relays to add to a blacklist is doing something malicious by scanning networks looking for open SMTP servers.

he could have added a one character integer overflow to net/ipv4/tcp_input.c

Really what they need to do is come out with a flash rom that you reflash your particular android device with and boom you're using ubuntu both in dock and undock mode... Doing it the way they are currently doing it, basically as an app running on the phone, is a step in the right direction, but really the road map should be to fully replace Android with Ubuntu. I think most people who use Android devices wish these devices were just running ubuntu, because ubuntu (and any desktop linux OS really) has a ton of more features out of the box than Android. With Android, they took linux, stripped away all the things that made it great, and then put a clunky window manager on top of it and a sandbox with limited features. I bet the same Android device running Ubuntu would run almost twice as fast, due to the natively compiled nature of Ubuntu versus the interpreted Java-based Android.

I think it's funny when you talk about the problems with the H1-B program, Indian people seem to be the most vocal proponents of the system, are the first to try to deflect criticism of the program, point the blame on other things such as "older workers cost more", etc. The reality here is that the H1-B system has been abused for decades to get lower paid workers, regardless of whether or not there was actually ever a US Citizen worker that could do the work. Unfortunately, the H1-B system will continue to be abused as a tool by large organizations to hire overseas workers at 1/3rd the cost of hiring US workers to do the same job. I think in most industries, the argument that there are not enough US workers is not based on facts. It's usually coming from the heads of large entities that are saving millions or billions per year by utilizing the program. As long as the program exists, it will continue to be abused this way. The H1-B program has nothing to do with "not enough skilled US citizens who can do the work", and alot to do with "I can hire the same guy for 1/3rd the price". Anyone who says differently is focused on some biased side of the conversation. The Indians think its a great program because it naturally enriches their poor country which would otherwise have been disenfranchised without the support of this program. The large organizations love the program because they get the workers for 1/3rd the price.

They have been sued numerous times for not removing posts *when the author of the post requested that it should be removed*. I think the bottom line is don't use ripoffreport.com, use complaintsboard.com or any similar site.

It has already been proven in many court cases that a "Terms of Service" page on a web site is not a contract, as are click-through agreements are also not legally binding contracts. Also, when web sites like Craigslist have in their Terms of Service that you must pay thousands of dollars per posting if you violate their terms of use, this too is also illegal and unenforceable.

Lets face it, public_html is PUBLIC H-T-M-L. If it is reachable from any computer without supplying a password to gain entry, then therefore it remains a public resource. Terms of Service does not apply.

On a good day, Wifi (802.11a/b/g/n) can travel about 900 feet between devices. Even with a directional antenna and some good hardware, you're looking at a maximum of about one mile transmitting distance between devices... Not sure how you could have any kind of sustainable network within these limited parameters.

Maybe they should first ban incestuous relationships with first cousins, but that would be against their muslim tradition.

I'd feel more safe if they provided parachutes. It's hard to survive a plane crash when you're traveling towards the ground at thousands of feet per second without a parachute. I think all the stuff they talk about like "using your seat as a floatation device" are all complete nonsense when 90+% of plane flights don't travel over bodies of water. Give me a parachute and a way to jump out of the plane, and at least I know that I'm going to *possibly* survive.
