Now I'm confused.

Heh, wetelectric's few comments about scientology on IRC started a 2 and a half hour debate on religion, which I doubt most of the participants of could be bothered to repeat here, but it was quite interesting.

find a *nix box to run that on Or use Cygwin or GnuWin32.

No, it's if your form of entertainment is watching a webcam waiting for the people on there to get naked or have sex (in the case of JenniCam anyway).

There's no way to find out who they are, but they aren't spoofing their IP address.

Plus it could cause a lot of hassle if someone decides to do something illegal while using your connection.

Yes, although the lower powered laser that are most common don't damage the eye very readily (that is, you need to shine it in your eye for quite a while to do anything), it's better not to take the chance, especially since you can't feel your retina being damaged.

I have actually bought that same model from that exact same ebayer, although mine came with HDD included.

Depends what the computers they are using are otherwise used for and what networks they are connected to.

Hah!

Can't you just ask your dad to set up an account for you?

Yes, that is to stupid.

They don't actively have to build in functionality - that would be the stupidest thing ever. If they purposefully tried to take measures to prevent other OSes from implementing NTFS then that might be anti-competitive. It would be nice if they could support other file systems, but it doesn't really bring much benefit to them, so I don't see it happening.

Since 2003 minors have been able to enter many pubs unsupervised regardless of age, but you can't enter a pub if it is primarily or exclusively for consuming alcohol (that is, if they are also intended for serving meals you can go in); for pubs which fit that description you have to be 16 to enter unless with an accompanying adult. You can't order alcohol until you are 18 in England, but your parents can order you wine, beer or cider to go with a meal in a pub or in a restaurant. You can order those at 16 yourself under the same conditions in Scotland only. In reality there's nothing really stopping anyone who wants to turn up since this meet is in public establishments, but you have to think about the situation you are putting others in and what situation you might end up in if you are left alone because you can't enter the bar everyone else went to.

Not unless you mean in law, no.

Well, there is a difference between saying it in an article, blog or documentation and in an advertisement.

I read it in this thread.

Unless it's the Chinese government who could deny access to that juicy growing market.

Have they done any advertising in which they says it's AES?

The problem with that is payment. Maybe it isn't a problem, I have no experience booking for a large number of people, but would a hostel expect a single person to be paying for everyone? Edit: Also to be honest it's going to be impossible to stop anyone coming who wants to regardless of their age, if it's in a public establishment at least. If someone decides they are coming regardless of how good an idea everyone else thinks it is then they need to be prepared that everyone might decide to go out drinking or something and what they might do in that situation. Edit 2: Regarding food, a venue really needs to be decided upon first, since we would need to know what facilities are available before deciding anything. It may just be that people want to go out to eat in restaurants or get food from take-aways (or take-out or carry-out as various nationalities might call it).

There's a W in my asshole (what does that mean? I don't know.).

Files on whose hard drive? Anyone who visits your site? I don't think so.

I'm not quite sure what you mean by locally read the certificate, could you elaborate?

If you are viewing HD video encoded with a modern codec like MPEG-4 you'll need a decent processor.

What? The site has no idea the user isn't being presented with the right certificates, as far as the server is concerned the user is using the right certificates, because you are decrypting the traffic encrypted with your own certs when they get to you, reading whatever the data is so you can do your filtering, then re-encrypting with the website's public key. Of course you have to get the browser not to complain when your certificates aren't for the website they are on or aren't signed properly, but that's easy to do when you have full access to machine like in this situation as an admin.
