  1. Re:Figures on Last Roll of Kodachrome Processed · · Score: 1

    Just stack up a couple iPads.

  2. Re:Turn the tables! on Apple Lays Out Location Collection Policies · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Amen, Barton. Obfuscation through walls of text is a scummy way to slip clauses past consumers.

    Too bad congress does it every day with Federal legislation.

  3. Re:I for one welcome our new Kiwi overloards. on Software Now Un-Patentable In New Zealand · · Score: 1
  4. Re:QT licence on Software Now Un-Patentable In New Zealand · · Score: 1

    Some courts seem to think that. They are wrong. Courts are there for our laws, not anyone else's. I forget which SCJ mentioned looking to other countries to decide if something was constitutional or not, but it happened. That's just sad.

  5. Re:Norton Healthcare on Best Places To Work In IT 2010 · · Score: 1

    That's a con only if you're Horde...

  6. Re:View!? on Gulf Oil Leak Plugged? · · Score: 1

    Like ANWR?

  7. Re:in other news, cementing the BP CEO has started on Gulf Oil Leak Plugged? · · Score: 1

    Mistakes happen. The point is that in shallower water accidents are more easily fixed.

  8. Re:in other news, cementing the BP CEO has started on Gulf Oil Leak Plugged? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    If they can't fix it 5000' maybe they shouldn't be drilling at 5000'.

    True. So let them drill in shallower waters. Oh wait...that might ruin someone's "view".

  9. Re:Interesting... on USAF Scramjet Hits Mach 6, Sets Record · · Score: 1

    It's mach 10 you don't want to hit...you'll turn in to a newt.

  10. Re:Please mod parent up on Quantum Teleportation Achieved Over 16 km In China · · Score: 2, Funny

    Information still cannot be transmitted faster than light.

    Sigh...subspace transmissions, hello???

  11. Re:tomorrow, tomorrow on iPhone 4 Beta Shows AT&T Tethering · · Score: 1

    You mean tethering is always a day away...

  12. Re:What is the point? on iPhone 4 Beta Shows AT&T Tethering · · Score: 3, Informative

    Indeed. AT&T coverage has actually been very good in the places I have lived in the US. In fact, in my current city, it has the best coverage of all the providers.

  13. For a price of course on iPhone 4 Beta Shows AT&T Tethering · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Because, unlimited data isn't really unlimited.

  14. Re:HTML5 Canvas not supported on this browser. (IE on Beautifully Rendered Music Notation With HTML5 · · Score: 1

    Yeah, me too in IE 7. But, that's still a bit old. I'd love to see this, but I guess I'll have to wait until I get home. If it's as good as the summary makes it sound, Coda Music may have a need to be concerned.

  15. Misread... on BSA Says Software Theft Exceeded $51B In 2009 · · Score: 1

    After reading the title only, I was wondering why the Boy Scouts of America were suddenly an authority on software theft.

  16. Re:Absolutely on The Virtual Choir Project · · Score: 1

    Oh, I also have a second degree in Managment of Health Informatics and am almost done with a Masters in Healthcare Administration. I'm not worried about the very unlikely chance of being unemployed.

  17. Absolutely on The Virtual Choir Project · · Score: 2, Funny

    one of the coolest things I've seen in a while. Coming from a guy with a music degree.)

  18. Re:Some of us were waaaaay ahead it seems. on One In Eight To Cut Cable and Satellite TV In 2010 · · Score: 1

    The cost of one season pass is less than a month of basic cable. It's cost effective.

  19. Re:Some of us were waaaaay ahead it seems. on One In Eight To Cut Cable and Satellite TV In 2010 · · Score: 2, Informative

    No cable since 2005 and loving it. iTunes has most everything I want to watch. And even the major networks now stream online with only 3-4 commercials, which is fine by me. That's how I watch "Lost"--abc.com.

  20. Re:Joomla! on Simple CMS For Mixed Mac/Windows Team? · · Score: 1

    Pointing to a list of old vulnerabilities that include beta versions of Joomla and older versions of 3rd party extensions is a good reason to be critical of your post. As with any responsible admin, I'm sure he will research 3rd party extensions of whatever solution he uses to ensure security.

  21. Re:Negative reviews? on Apple Approves Opera Mini For iPhone · · Score: 4, Informative

    The summary was sumbitted yesterday...the browser is available now.

  22. Posting from it now.... on Apple Approves Opera Mini For iPhone · · Score: 4, Insightful

    And it seems to be incredibly fast. However, incredibly insecure from what I've heard. Also, the iPhone auto-correct for typing does not seem to work.

  23. Re:Googlectomy on Medical Professionals Aren't Leaping For E-Medicine · · Score: 1

    Face it.. you doctor is already using computers, and storing your information on them... The real issue is data portability. Info from Dr. A should be accessible to Dr. B when needed, and we should ALWAYS have access to our own data...

    No they are not. I was at HIMSS a few weeks ago and I think the latest stat was only 15% or less of providers use full EHRs. That is simply horrible.

  24. Re:Sketchy. on Medical Professionals Aren't Leaping For E-Medicine · · Score: 1

    Yeah, GH is lacking some things. I hate to admit it, but I think MS HealthVault is a better product,
