  1. Re:Please put a second car on the track on Stanford's Self Driving Car Tops 120mph On Racetrack · · Score: 2

    2nd human driver? Or another computer driven car? There would be nothing exciting about having two computer driven cars on the track driving 120mph. It would only be impressive to see the cars drive side by side the entire time without touching, or in line like a train.

  2. Re:errr on US Chamber of Commerce Infiltrated By Chinese Hackers · · Score: 1

    Corrupt printer driver? Have you ever tried to stop a printer from printing a page?

  3. Re:In the suicide-bombing age... on Cold Warriors Question Nukes · · Score: 1

    It was misinterpreted, it isn't 72 virgins, it's 72 Virginians!

  4. What's the problem? on Hackers Bringing Telnet Back · · Score: -1

    You can't see my password when I use telnet, it just shows up as ******** when I type it. it must be secure. /sarcasm

  5. There's a lot of money to be made in security... on Threat of Cyberwar Is Over-Hyped · · Score: 1

    The cost of securing is much greater than the losses will ever be. There's good money to be made and jobs to be created on both sides.

  6. At least point the fingers in the right direction on Netflix Touts Open Source, Ignores Linux · · Score: 1

    Microsoft. How is it Netflix's fault for Novell/moonlight not being allowed to have the proper DRM codebits from silverlight to implement into moonlight. Use google. This shit is all over the net.

  7. Re:So about auto insurance on Judge Declares Federal Healthcare Plan (Partly) Unconstitutional · · Score: 1

    You are only required to carry auto insurance to pay for damages that you do to OTHER people / property. This is called having just liability. You are not required to carry full coverage, unless the bank owns your car, then it's really not your car, so again, you're paying in case you damage other persons (the banks) property. Having only liability, you're self-insuring your own vehicle of damages and will pay everything out of pocket to fix your vehicle. Think of the law requiring you to provide full coverage on your vehicle. You are also not required by law to purchase a vehicle.

  8. Nothing to see here.... on Root Privileges Through Linux Kernel Bug · · Score: 3, Informative

    From the RedHat bug report: Eugene Teo (Security Response) 2010-08-12 21:44:06 EDT Linus has committed a fix for this issue: http://git.kernel.org/linus/320b2b8de12698082609ebbc1a17165727f4c893

  9. Probably cheaper... on Google Testing an Airborne Camera Drone · · Score: 3, Insightful

    ...more efficient, and faster to get up to date imagery for maps than to wait and pay for satellite imagery. Military has these planes that fly by themselves to take pictures to update maps. This looks like it's just the civilian sector following lead. I can only imagine that aligning and presenting imagery data from an aircraft is a lot easier and requires less compute/man hours than satellite imagery. Especially if the need is only for new imagery of a small area.
