  1. The technology has been in use since the 50's. How hard can it be to replace the robotic voice with a signal to the drone's navigation system?

  2. Turbulence? on CISPA Sponsor Says Protests Are Mere 'Turbulence' · · Score: 1

    Time to up the ante and cause a microburst. That has always been known to help craft on approach to landing.

  3. Re:Call your union rep on Ontario Teachers' Union Calls For Health-Related Classroom Wi-Fi Ban · · Score: 1

    I can think of only one case in which she would be correct. The pyramid would have to be narrower than the distance between your eyes. But either eye would not be able to see all 4 corners simultaneously.

  4. What a shame on 88-Year-Old Inventor Hassled By the DEA · · Score: 1

    I have a bottle of his product sitting not 20 feet from me. Serves as a backup on all of my camping trips should my primary water purification method fail, or if the water is just too dirty to use a filter. The first time I used the stuff was a decade ago when I visited Philmont with my scout troop, where a pair of bottles is given to every contingent for safety.

  5. I don't particularilly like Apple's stance, but on Amazon Responds To "App Store" Lawsuit From Apple · · Score: 1

    Amazon saying a legal reservation on a idea is too generic is kind of like the pot calling the kettle black. I seem to remember that Amazon patented everything they came up with for a long period, and most of that was so obvious no one else would have considered patenting it. UserFriendly covered that a long time ago.

  6. Re:We Need Audio! on William Shatner Wakes Up Crew for Final Discovery Mission · · Score: 1
  7. Gentoo? on OpenSUSE To Offer a Rolling Release Repository · · Score: 3, Informative

    This is basically what Gentoo does. The only numbered releases they have are the annualish install discs. And if you go with the minimal install, even that doesn't draw much from the install medium, you download all the current packages.

  8. Hazzards on Sound As the New Illegal Narcotic? · · Score: 1

    "How will police know if a teen is with headphones on is i-dosing or just listening to Justin Bieber?"
    Wouldn't it be safer to listen to this new "drug"?

  9. Re:Have you tried..... on NASA Finds Cause of Voyager 2 Glitch · · Score: 1

    Yeah, but Pete Conrad isn't on the craft to respond with a "What the hell is that?"
