Re:Kiva is matching loans for first time donors on Wednesday October 12, 2011 @02:02AM (#3101687)
Looks like kiva has 98.87% repayment rate, so a small price to pay to attract new users.

Re:Dropbox Encryption with TrueCrypt on Saturday April 16, 2011 @02:05PM (#2454464)
I am wondering how/if TrueCrypt would properly handle being synced if mounted on multiple machines at the same time. One of the biggest benefits of DropBox to me is the access the files instantly on all my computers. If I have to unmount and mount the TrueCrypt volume to change files, that benefit goes away.. What happens if I forget to unmount the volume at home, can I safely change the files while away?
