Comment This is why I love Tor, allow no middlemen! (Score 0) 64

Especially no middlemen that can not be trusted. Our privacy is being violated by every single party in the middle. ISPs, eCommerce vendors, search vendors, social networks. They are all euqal culprits. Avoid a link to a real ID, irrelevant of the addresss. Address is a dummy in most IDs.

Comment Typical, old style user level escalation on Win10! (Score 1) 85

It's not just Razer, you can do this with many other drivers and USB devices, such as USB sound cards etc, which are not even user control devices, because they install system level DSPs, and do present an elevated Explorer to launch powershell from. Sad that this still works, maybe this is more of a reason for people to use Windows Ameliorated Edition style system policies that require explicite admin password before elevation or installer launch.

Introducing the Slashdot Firehose 320

Logged in users have noticed for some time the request to drink from the Slashdot Firehose. Well now we're ready to start having everybody test it out. It's partially a collaborative news system, partially a redesigned & dynamic next-generation Slashdot index. It's got a lot of really cool features, and a lot of equally annoying new problems for us to find and fix for the next few weeks. I've attached a rough draft of the FAQ to the end of this article. A quick read of it will probably answer most questions from how it works, what all the color codes mean, to what we intend to do with it.
