  1. Re:Good news everyone... on Court Rules Workers Did Not Overstep On Stealing Data · · Score: 1

    A database download is not theft. The company still has the information in their database. It's more akin to copyright infringement, though I doubt you can copyright a client list.

    And people can be racists against their own 'group'

    And it can be quite funny: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BHFUH_frhBw (Dave Chappelle: Black White Supremacist)

  3. Re:Now? on Google Starts Scanning Android Apps · · Score: 1

    AFAIK, wireless tether requires root (or payment), but PdaNet, etc. can tether via USB or Bluetooth without root.

  4. Re:Now? on Google Starts Scanning Android Apps · · Score: 1

    Don't forget that on the original iPhone, apps were intended to be web apps run entirely within Mobile Safari. Apple certainly had the iOS SDK in-house where "professional" developers would build apps, have them code-reviewed, testes, etc, according to whatever Apple's development process dictates.

    Looks like AC has something else on their mind this morning.

  5. Re:My GPS equipment. on LightSquared Says GPS Tests Were Rigged · · Score: 2

    I have a GPS 12, I use it when I need to measure distances outdoors. Then again, I also have a GPSMAP 696, GPSMAP 740, GPSMAP 175, GPSMAP 195, GPSMAP 295, Streetpilot Colormap, iQue 3600, iQue m5, Streetpilot c330, Forerunner 310XT, and GPS 72

    It sounds like you could have provided all of the test units for this experiment.

  6. Ig Nobel on We Finally Know Why Oil and Water Don't Mix · · Score: 1

    I thought the winners of the 2010 Ig Nobel Chemistry prize disproved the old belief that oil and water don't mix. http://improbable.com/ig/winners/#ig2010

  7. Re:Apple, why? on Adobe Releases Flash 11 and AIR 3 · · Score: 1

    FTA: "Adobe said full frame rate HD video can now be displayed within AIR applications on Apple iOS devices using H.264 hardware decoding."

  8. Re:Better check again. on US House 'Creator' of TSA Wants To Kill It · · Score: 1

    Go check out the EPA's page of Air Pollutants. You won't find CO2 listed. http://epa.gov/air/airpollutants.html

    Last I checked, carbon dioxide is not a pollutant.

  11. Re:Which also explains the cause of the crash... on Find My IPhone Used To Locate Plane Crash In Chile · · Score: 1

    Well, you'd need to know the altitude first, and then what kind of delay there is between the phone reporting it's location and how soon it shows up online.

  12. Re:college drop outs on The Rise of Polymorphic Malware · · Score: 1

    Proudly proclaiming what a deadbeat you are isn't going to win you any points around here.

  13. Re:From the article: "without a legitimate reason" on Japanese Man Arrested For Storing Malware · · Score: 0

    Information should not be illegal.

    Not trying to flame here (just inquiring), but what falls under "information"? Is child porn information? If not, where did it cross the line? Why doesn't malware cross this same line? I recognize the fact that malware that's never disseminated has no victim. As where c.p. has a victim at the time of creation.

    Is this SFW?

  15. Re:Hard to believe anyone... on 11-Year-Old Pilots 1,325 MPG Concept Car · · Score: 1

    My nephews started racing junior dragsters at ~8 y.o.

  16. Re:Apple? on Google Launching Music Service Without Labels · · Score: 1

    I for one would love to have an online music service that lets me upload my (large) existing collection of CD's (preferably with a "virtual" upload so I don't have to actually transfer the same bits to google that they already have)

    Sounds like you're wanting something like Lala.com that Apple shuttered not too long ago.

    If only AT&T would get off its ass and actually offer us FIOS.

    FiOS is a Verizon product.

  19. Re:Good for US economy on MS Wants Laws To Block Products Made By Software Pirates · · Score: 1

    My problem with this is that if Microsoft can prove that an overseas company is using pirated software, then why wouldn't they just go after that company? Why make some unwitting U.S. company the whipping boy?

    Is it that difficult to just redact the names of any other informants/sources?

  22. Re:Vacation time on Corporations Hiring Hooky Hunters · · Score: 1

    That just seems backwards. If people are sick, I'd rather them stay home--don't incentivize sick people to show up and expose everybody else for a bigger check at the end of the year.
