    Is it true that there are only black and white in a dog's eyesight?

  3. Re:Why banned on airplanes? on Japan Demands Probe of iPod Nano Flameouts · · Score: 1

    That's true. Failure rate during a flight is far less than 0.001%. I just take that number as a example to point out that: 1. Even if the possibility of a bursting Nanos is very small, considering its popularity and the large number of flights, the overall possibility of fire caused by Nanos can be significantly increased. 2. If somebody risk their lives because of this, we have to take it very seriously.

  4. Re:Why banned on airplanes? on Japan Demands Probe of iPod Nano Flameouts · · Score: 1

    Don't forget that there are many passengers on a flight and there are many flights in a single day. Simplifying a bit, assume that we have 100 passengers with Nanos, the probability of bursting into flame would be 1-(1-0.001%)^100 ~ 0.1%

    I have to close BBC's clip window not because of their ads but the slow speed. The videos never load within 3 minutes. I wonder if they limit the bandwidth to clients outside UK.

    If they want to outsource the job, they will end up that way no matter whether you ask for overtime pay. So why not ask for it at the first place?

  9. Re:I don't get it. on MediaSentry Hired By People's Republic of China · · Score: 1

    Why do the Olympics need DRM anyway? That's a good chance to tell the world that Chinese Gov. does care about IP and pirate.
