  1. Re:Nothing too good for the fruit of my loins on Ask Slashdot: Suitable Phone For a 4-Year Old? · · Score: 1

    Rather than the iTunes credit just link it directly to a credit card so you never have to refill it.

  2. Re:Local LAN games on Valve Announces Family Sharing On Steam, Can Include Friends · · Score: 1

    Or have atleast one person who has the game and copy the files over the network. (if you cant get organised) I have my steamaps folder shared to anyone can just copy the games over onto their machine (if they own it on steam.)

  3. NSA thinking on Time For X-No-Wiretap HTTP Header? · · Score: 1

    You are marking your traffic that you are an American Citizen and don't want to be monitored. What do you have to hide? That sounds like something a terrorist would say. Time to monitor every piece of traffic with this header, thanks for flagging when you have something to hide.

    Thats why they have the little space suits.

  6. Re:cant wait on "Self-Healing" NAND Flash Memory That Can Survive Over 100 Million Cycles · · Score: 1

    My friend did that with his Galaxy S2 and it fixed the issue he was having. I dont know if it was the Flash memory as this article is talking about, but it worked.

    "What about networks thru which this data flows?" Shut up, Dont give them any ideas.

    Nice Find

    Anyone have an alternate link?

  16. Problems on Tsunami Warning From Space? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I don't think that this is a practical solution. Lasers are very focused and don't spread out like normal lights, if they were to spread out the power requirements would be huge. Also It would be walking a very fine line between delivering enough light to be noticed and too little to cause eye damage to people looking up. Lastly You would have to check the wording on the agreements banning weapons in space, even though it is not the intention this could be viewed as one. While this is an interesting idea I don't think it is very practical and there could be better solutions.

  17. Re:I don't think so on Tsunami Warning From Space? · · Score: 1

    I think that the idea is to use the satellite as a Warning after an earthquake has been detected by seismic sensors, as they do now. Not actually finding a Tsunami. But yes I think you are right in that they could not be used to detect the wave.

  18. Re:What are they trying to do? on NVidia Cripples PhysX "Open" API · · Score: 1

    I don't think that will effect Hydra because they have a separate chip on the motherboard that splits the graphics load. It has nothing to do with physx. This is to stop people from buying two cards and using one for rendering and one for physX.

  19. Translation on Microsoft Launches New "Get the Facts" Campaign · · Score: 1

    "Sure, Firefox may win in sheer number of add-ons, but many of the customizations you'd want to download for Firefox are already a part of Internet Explorer 8 right out of the box." Translation: Has a bunch of stuff you don't want or use.
