  1. After 17th on L.A. Building's Lights Interfere With Cellular Network, FCC Says · · Score: 0

    What's going to happen after 17th. Will we keep this up? Or just abandon slashdot for good?

  4. Re:Computer Intrusion on Half of Tor Sites Compromised, Including TORMail · · Score: 0

    See, that's exactly what I was talking about. We had seen countless things that should have caused massive reaction from the public. We have seen cigarette smugglers bombed by the government, mistaken them for terrorists. We have seen nobody being charged for that. Countless cases of fraud by government officials go unpunished. A 13 year old girl getting raped by 26 men and the perpetrators get away with only a few years because they claimed "the girl didn't resist them."

    Seeing these things not getting any reaction from the public made everyone depressed. But it all accumulates in people's conscience. I might be wrong about what the tipping point is going to be (in fact I probably am since these things tend to happen at very unexpected places) but there will be a point that people just can't take it anymore.

  10. Re:Interesting on Mini-Tornadoes For Generating Electricity · · Score: 0

    You need a temperature difference to produce energy. If everything was of same temperature, you couldn't produce energy out of it.

  15. What is the healthy limit for solar energy on Self-Assembling Photovoltaic Tech From MIT · · Score: 1

    if we cover the planet with solar panels, that wouldn't be good right? So there should be a limit of healthy solar energy use before messing with planet's heat balance.

    Any Ideas what that should be?

  16. Re:More than that on Digital Devices Deprive Brain of Needed Downtime · · Score: 1

    Blue light in particular is linked to suppression of melatonin

    So, instead of staring at blue LED's, we should go outside and watch the blue skies I guess.

  20. Re:way to drive on Geologists Might Be Charged For Not Predicting Quake · · Score: 1

    Nothing in the article really suggests that they were wrong given the evidence they had at the time. They're Geologists, not soothsayers.

    They're geophysicists actually. Not that it matters much.

    I came back from a trip from Istanbul to Los Angeles. I got passed many security checkpoints in Frankfurt and Istanbul. I've been in a camping trip prior to my flight. When I was unpacking my bag in LA, I realized I had two radios and a pocket knife in my carry-on the whole time.

    I Guess these new security measures don't really work after all.
