  1. DVC170? on Bluecherry Releases GPL'd MPEG-4 Driver · · Score: 1

    Any info on whether this will finally allow Dazzle DVC170 cards to play nice with Linux?

  2. Let's not jump to conclusions now on Apple Bans Jailbreakers From the App Store · · Score: 4, Informative

    This is the exact warning you get when your password is entered several times incorrectly, it is possible somebody got a list of developers apple ID's and was trying to brute force their way in. A quick trip to iforgot.apple.com would solve this pretty quickly.

  3. Re:First two films? on Terminator Franchise To Be Auctioned Off · · Score: 1

    Why yes they did! Terminator 3: The Coming Storm was pretty good.

  4. Re:What do you want home automation for? on What is the Current State of Home Automation? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    The town where I go to school, McKeesport PA has a unique situation in that 20% of its population are senior citizens, and that number is rising. Eventually the nation will mirror this number, so it is being used as a testbed for autonomous retirement homes by a company called BlueRoof Technologies. They aim to be able to control all aspects of the home to the point that the resident does not need a permanent caregiver. Knowing how many times the fridge/shower/sink have been used can clue the computer or operator in on the quality of life of the patient. Situations like turning off the stove then become a bigger deal, if the stove is on with no rise in temperature.

  5. Re:Least Common Denominator on Is Cloud Computing the Hotel California of Tech? · · Score: 1

    That could be awesome if automated. Think about it: ctrl-s, .docx goes to C:\, RTF goes to an external drive. You get a automatic "backup" that you can plug into any computer and be able to work with.
