I use a 5GB TrueCrypt file synced via DropBox but it seems to create conflicted versions way too easily, despite switching machines at a low rate. I'd love to be able to see more details of the syncing process so that I can figure-out what's happening. For now, moving the frequently-changing information into a smaller 500MB file seems to have reduced the conflicts. Anyone have any tips on getting more information on the syncing process?

"Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa they make phones that look just like ours, have far better cameras and screens, faster processors, better operating systems, better and freer update mechanisms. Waaaaaaaaaa"

It's lucky they took the time to run lots of false flag operations in the name of LulzSec and Anon. - otherwise the public might be forgiven for thinking that the levels of cyber-crime didn't warrant a global government-organised snooping-operation.

Good show.

I understand the issue, and I don't agree with the screening. However, I also feel you should be responsible for your choices. Fix it, avoid it, or live with it. Don't get all the way up to the screening and then bitch about it. You knew before hand it was coming.

The issue is that there are no choices; the laws are made to suit the members of the corporations selling the scanners and the politicians receiving the bribes.

A larger proportion of the public believe that if there's a law, it's for a good reason and so should be upheld. Therefore they will happily enforce a law made by another - often they don't even need to believe in the law - they'll enforce whatever you tell them to for pay.

So, this is where we are at. The sham of government representing all but made by a few to benefit a few with our fellow citizens, equally targeted by the law, choosing to uphold it without thought.

The problem, as always, is that the thoughtless multitude allow themselves to be controlled by the powerful few to the detriment of the powerless but thoughtful and society at large.

A seemingly intractable problem.

That effect is that the child is taught that someone with authority over them has the right to touch them in whatever way they wish without the child's consent.

It's not just the children being taught this lesson.

Thankfully, I live in the future where we have Skype and WebEx.

I will not respect their beliefs...

You must respect their beliefs otherwise they'll cry / feel bad / explode.

meh. There must be one of you that hasn't seen this extremely amusing video-mocking of potential iPhone4-users:

If you're that paranoid that every article about biological research makes you worry about "I am legend" scenarios or clouds of murderous insects, I don't know what you're doing typing on a computer. Skynet and the matrix people! What could possibly go wrong?!?

Congratulations fellow earthling! I'm here to tell you that we have selected your post as "that most likely to have saved the world."

I come from your future - a future so bleak it makes idiocracy look like a summer camp. There is one bee left and it's getting really tired. If only you had tried harder! :-(

You'll probably need to license that behavior from the TSA so as to avoid infringing on their patent.
