Playstation Network hacked. What a shame...

[Kesa]

So the Playstation Network got hacked. What a shame. Lucky i didn't have any credit card details on there

My only regret is that it happened to Sony and not Apple itunes. That would have been really something. But being realistic Sony have only themselves to blame, maybe they should look after their data better by incrypting it. Sure the network would still have been hacked but at least the data would have been safe. I'm not convinced the hackers were after credit card details anyway, they might be just resentful users who were shut out of the 'other os' :rolleyes:

Just wondering did anyone on Amiga.org get hacked?

Yet another example that does nothing to dispel the stereotype of Australians.

Australians have a stereotype? Please tell...

Great video! Seems like a good rational bloke

But to blame hackers is wrong. In negligence you are supposed to adopt the strategy of prevention from idiots. Hackers are idiots so you can't blame them for what they have done. If we blamed all the idiots for all the worlds problems we would get nowhere.

But overall my feeling is as much as i love Sony and the ps3 i still like to see the big boys get stepped on once in a while. I only wish it happened to Apple instead.

Unless it was a premonition of this: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-13256817

An extra 25million users had their details stolen, it seems.

Why do you keep on quoting yourself? That's the second time today i've seen you do it  :confused:

I agree. That's so totally weird.

Lay-dees and Getz! Welcome back to another riveting but friendly session "King of the Forum" I am your host, Quip E. McSnark-snark, and will guide you through the perilous halls of this latest match.
 
The match starting volley was expertly served by the local favorite, Karlos and boy did he ace it right between the challenger's eyes!
 
With the score 15-love, Karlos seamed to be off on the right foot but here comes Kesa with a might back hand pointing out that the local chap. QUOTED HIMSELF!!!
 
This was a blow for Karlos as even an amateur Forum Fighter knows that rule 4-beta-beta-zed clearly states that quoting one’s self seriously is grounds for reversal and an instant scrumm for the ball is to be expected.
 
And here is the scrumm and... KESA! KESA has the ball with a scrumm breaking self-quote NOT taking himself seriously playing off of Law Zed-zed-zed-wiffle!
 
What a reversal folks, what a reversal! Kesa is in line for a Try but Karlos is going for a dismiss and get Kesa off the field!
 
What will happen next? Who will win this game of games? How on earth am I coming up with this scoring system? SOMEBODY STOP ME!!!:laughing:

I think someone has forgotten to take their meds!

But i'm sure we have all gotten passed the childish hair pulling because we are all adults here.

Shhhhhh!... i think i'm taller than Karlos! Don't tell him...

Thick, loud, obnoxious, racist, alcoholic, misogynistic, take your pick.

The great statesman Les Paterson was based on actual people.

Actually in recent times It's become the opposite. A couple of decades ago what you said was true about us and the English we well mannered and educated. But today these roles have reversed themselves. Australians are now what the English were a few years ago and vice versa English to Australians :p

Well, while companies like Apple and Microsoft might product products you don't like, produce adverts which appeal to dumb public and in the later case have engaged in anti-competitive practices... The don't don't sue their users.

Looks at Apple's approach to Hackintosh... They turn a blind eye. Or Jail breaking... They simply lock out the hack in the next OS revision... They don't sue or "go after" the users who do these things. Apple are a bit brighter than incurring the wrath of the hacker community.

Sony did this to themselves, it's the users I feel sorry for.

OK i'll give you that one. But that wasn't the point i was making. I like to see the big companies get knocked down a level sometimes. I think it's healthy. I like to build people up just so i can bash them down again

P.S. On the weekend i installed MacBuntu. It's great! It feels nothing like Linux. You being an Apple fanboy, I was just wondering what you think of it compared to the real thing. It's the first time i have ever used OSX and not been irritated. But i admit the rotating cube might be a bit out of place though...

PS: Once you start wearing slippers and wandering round supermarkets just before closing time looking for stuff that has been reduced in price cos it's reached it's sell buy date, then you know (or at least someone should tell you) it's time for the old folks home and to stop being an oxygen thief and coffin dodger...

OI! I do that everyday! Everyday at about 5:30 - 6:30pm they put all the stuff down. Mostly just bread but other stuff too. A couple of days ago i got hamburgers half price so i filled up my fridge full of them

P.S. i agree with you on the old fart thing. How old is Karlos anyway? My best guess is 60

[Kesa]

Yes i do. But don't worry i know linux and osx are different

I have limited use on osx but have much more on macbuntu so i was just wondering how accurate the 2 are when compared to each other by someone in the know. How accurate is the imitation? Obviously i'm only talking about the mannerisms of the os and not the coding!
