  1. The attack can easily be extended to SMS, Whatsapp, iMessage and voice.

    So... you're claiming Tinder first just to get clickbait... right?

    No, Twitter is only part of the internet.

    I actually first noticed this yeas ago when I was in Shenzhen: electric scooters/"bicycles" were everywhere. So much for thinking that China is unwilling to limit its pollution.

    I'm not a robot, I'm an academic professional, and this process is wasting nontrivial amounts of my time.

    Well, obviously. Robots have smaller egos.

    Probably not. Welcome to the new phenomena of what I call "lazy caps": all lower case-often with an occasional word written with a capital letter just to prove that their keyboard is indeed working.

    And not, it's not mobile device text entry: if anything, those thing auto-capitalize the beginning of sentences, at least. No, it's the I-can-touch-type-faster-then-I-think-stream-of-conscious-keyboard-diarrhoea-using-my-pinky-fingers-slows-me-down-fuck-I-gotta-do-this-quickly-someone-is-WRONG-on-the-internet folks. I'm noticing it a lot more in the last year or so-even more so here at Slashdot.

    (Yeah, I typed this all out with two fingers. ;) )

  18. What a cumb dunt this guy is.

  19. I agree with most of the posters here that things like refrigeration and air-conditioning are among the most influential "gadgets" of all time - or, at least for the period of post World War II. The modern world would bit a lot different without them.

    However, using the original article's limited sense of reference I would consider the (original) iPod to be far more influential than the iPhone (you could swap them around in Time's rankings); looking back, the original iPod's release really did start a small, personal revolution in our pockets: the iPhone just built on that.

  22. Yes I know; thus your pun is over-labored and strung out in order to call it "Zen" rather than "Chan".

  23. ...in the country where Zen...

    No, that would be Japan.

    ...(buddhism)...

    No, that would be India.

  25. Re: too expensive on Japan To Begin Testing Fingerprints As 'Currency' (the-japan-news.com) · · Score: 1

    Japanese people are xenophobic. It comes from having a very homogeneous ethnicity (after wiping out the real autoctones of the islands) and homogeneous culture. They don't want, and they don't like foreigners. Don't misunderstand their courtesy for respect or "we love foreigners". Their society is bigoted, archaic and ultra conformist.

    Another Anglo expert.

    Just wait until you get to Korea. Then we can talk.
