Neighbors can view my screen. How?

I need to ditch the porn and Japanese animation habit. Wasting my life hoarding that stuff was stupid and unhealthly. I could have been doing something constructive with my life like meeting people or making things. If a mod reads this please delete (thread and user if possible, it is true...

Neighbors can view my screen. How?

Ugh, maybe it was a screen viewer like Back Orifice or even a VNC variant installed by neighbors with spare keys. Or even just my paranoid mind filling in half heard shit as whole. Either was way more likely. I like small cup Japanese women in terms of porn and it is easy to mistake that for...

Cable modems susceptible to packet sniffing or similar?

We all hear about cable modems sharing bandwidth. Does that also mean that everyone gets your signal in some way and can do the equivalent of packet sniffing?

What are you currently reading?

Some sort of Gypsy Morph book from Terry Brooks. I enjoyed his books as a kid. Not enjoying this one now, though, for whatever reason. Seems kind of pointless. Guess I enjoy scifi more than magic, even if the scifi tech is probably just as unrealistic as magic. Maybe I don't like fiction at...

Is the city THE place for young people to live?

Cities are awesome if you like to go out. Work, the gym and pool, several parks, a boat launch, tons of bars and restaurants, shopping, etc. are all a short walk from where I live. People in the boonies actually have to waste time driving to those things.

I never get tired of the Matrix's lobby scene

Too many cases where bullets magically miss them and other crap. That guy at the end stepping out with his gun down instead of up and ready to fire, for instance. It is much more exciting when the heroes actually have to work for victory and not get it handed to them by the script. edit...

Some women hate when you use the word "babysitting"

At my office we'd have both ran for an online dictionary. Unfortunately the first definition I see is "to take charge of a child while the parents are temporarily away," although some of the others offer wiggle room.
