You can have the strongest end-to-end encryption you want...it doesn't mean much if you don't know how your private and session keys are handled. It's all down to trusting the vendor that you're supposedly hiding your messages from with "end-to-end" encryption.

Janeway used gedit, Sisko used Kate but Archer used Windows Notepad.

The big thing is critical mass. The RPi has that and it's a hub for community projects.

A set of shims would be nice, quiet, cheap AND fast.

The CISO is a much more recent office and typically reports to the CIO. By default the duties of the CISO have fallen to the CIO and only more recently in relative terms been parted out to the CISO.

The CEH is certainly something that looks good on the CV, but I have never met a pen tester or IT Security manager who actually held it in high regard. The OSCP is by all accounts an order of magnitude more difficult, more relevant and more respected. I'm not opposed to multiple choice exams (I have several of the certs mentioned here and am quite proud of it) but for me it just doesn't add up that you can demonstrate a practical skill such as hacking through this form of test.

Yes, I largely agree. I wrote the blurb in haste. What I was trying (unsuccessfully) to alude to was the expected change to legislation to ensure business can continue to exchange data.

Essentially all of the big IT providers are American. Processing and the more contemporary "cloud" services that everything seems to have morphed into mean that your customer data does not have widely-accepted protection under the DPD. If a replacement does not step in we may see repatriating of data and a cleanup exercise. It doesn't seem very likely, but neither did this ruling.

I don't think you've been keeping up with the case. There is no new legislation, but a very simple point in contention. Did the Safe Harbour provision, intended to ensure corporations met European levels of data control, cover state intelligence gathering. The ruling is at this point, no. The Irish Data Protection Commissioner had stated in relation to the European Data Protection Directive that they had no power to look at the scope of Safe Harbour and that in of itself Facebook met the requirements of Safe Harbour.

It is not news that the NSA etc. did not see themselves as constrained by Safe Harbour. In light of the ECJ's rulings an investigation into Facebook's protection of European data seems appropriate.

I had 16MB of RAM and it ran like a champ. It was plenty of RAM even for gaming, I used to blitz through X-Wing Vs. TIE Fighter and plenty of other 3D games without breaking a sweat. Hexen II and Duke 3D were regulars on my PC.

That's exactly why - if you got a page to finally load, you didn't let it go easily.

I loved that song and I loved having it on the PC. It blew my mind and it rendered amazingly at the time through my 2MB ATI Video Card. And that really was a video card, not a 3D card.

Why not use DKMS and let it fix itself. Even better!

England?

If you really think the amount of airplay you get in a bar is equivalent to the critically acclaimed musical legacy of this man then I'm not sure what to make of that.

I'm 35 and Neil Young is one of my favourite musicians. I think he's one of the most accomplished songwriters of the past century. I suggest listening to some of his albums rather than waiting on random airplay of one of his "hits".
