  1. Priorities right? on BitHammer, the BitTorrent Banhammer · · Score: 1

    impossible to use tools like SSH, or sometimes even web browsing

    TIL an average slashdot user uses SSH more than browsing the web.

    Browsing on Lynx?

    ... the lawyers. You knew it anyway.

  4. Its not copying at all! on 61.9% of Undergraduates Cybercheat · · Score: 1

    What's wrong with this? Copying without understanding and without context is wrong and downright dumb. But copying after realizing the context and modifying the text to suit your paper is not wrong. Do you cite Newton and Einstein every time you solve a mechanics problem? Or quote Descartes after answering(if there is a definite one) a philosophical riddle?
    I haven't ever written a single submission without 'referring' to the internet and surfing through those e-books, g-books, jstor, sciencedirect etc. and I can safely say it has contributed to my intelligence and knowledge. Of course I mention the text every now and then, but if a text has no solid copyable material which I can use to build upon in my answer then it does not deserve to be quoted.

  5. Ladar? on Military Robots to Gain Advanced Sight · · Score: 1

    Isn't it called LiDAR ?

  6. Pretty obvious really on State of US Science Report Shows Disturbing Trends · · Score: 1

    And this did not need a study or a research to prove it. The schools have fat kids always trying to woo girls into getting laid; how do we expect them to do research? Maths? Come on! Most of the research industry is comprised of hardworking Indians and Chinese who probably get paid a bit less but are the sole reason for so many breakthroughs and patents Americans like to call their own! Most americans are not aware of their contributions, but well, face it.

    Yes, Demonoid will return again. And every torrent/porn/warez site will have their servers on this island. RIAA and others stay out!

  8. Yes, But.. on Batcave Home Theater · · Score: 1

    how much is batman gonna shed for renting this place? Bzztttt.. He is broke. Batgirl was the first to reach his wallet than Sony, Triad, Stewart et al.

  9. All in All on Google Mobile Phones Debut in Feb? · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Well, I feel that the plus point of Android is that it is open source. So that should allow future developments like GPS, motion sensing API, etc. All it needs is a bunch of enthusiastic developers(which is actually the case since Google is floating the thing). I dont think that 200Mhz processor will be a deterrent, Android should sooner or later support better processors as well. Only better hardware needs to be thrown into it. Now what we need to know is how it affects the rest of market, Or if it can compete and make users believe that it is better than symbian or windows mobile. Whatever happens, we end users will hopefully get better products.
