  1. Drupal on Ask Slashdot: What Is the Best Way To Add Forums To a Website? · · Score: 4, Informative

    Drupal core forum combined with the advanced forum will meet your requirements. We used this approach for IFC, see it here.

    lol, wishing I had mods.

    ...and you were modded down as redundant for saying this... same as I was.

  5. Re:Makes sense. on Facebook Joins Linaro Linux-on-ARM Effort · · Score: 1

    can't figure out why I was modded down. ARM/Linux on smartphone makes sense, no? If someone can fucking tell me otherwise, great, still don't get why I was modded down for "redundant".

    I feel like this should be modded funny.

    “He played around with the field a little and realized that in order to vote for Romney, his finger had to be exactly on the mark,”

    welcome to the age of tablet computing.

  12. Hell, I just want a solar-powered cell phone, which they still can't figure out.

  13. Predictions on Scientists Who Failed to Warn of Quake Found Guilty of Manslaughter · · Score: 1

    Seismologists investigated the tremors, but concluded that there was no direct indication of a big quake on the horizon.

    I predict this case will result in a higher number of scientists lowering the threshold for significance, p is less than .45.

  15. Re:Function creep...? on Researcher Reverse-Engineers Pacemaker Transmitter To Deliver Deadly Shocks · · Score: 1

    Sure, you could ask patients to carry password cards OR tattoo the password on a body part if you really felt the need to password-protect the device.

    What about implanting an RFID chip on the patient that constantly transmits the password? Oh, wait...

  16. Re:Why are these approved? on Researcher Reverse-Engineers Pacemaker Transmitter To Deliver Deadly Shocks · · Score: 5, Informative

    This has been known since at least 2008. The Economist has an interesting article about the FDA slowly moving towards open source medical devices to improve the overall security and reliability of software in medical devices.

  19. Re:Huh? on Book Review: Drush User's Guide · · Score: 2

    You might as well just make the scale just 8, 9 and 10 at that point.

    For the record, my book received the lowest book rating he's ever given on /., which was a 6. Glad I could help set the bar somewhere.

  20. Drush Deploy on Book Review: Drush User's Guide · · Score: 2
    There are many ways to deploy drupal instances between staging environments, the simplest I've found is drush deploy, integrates with both svn and git, so I can run a command such as:

    drush-deploy TARGET=qa TAG=qa_test_012

    which would checkout to the qa environment and then run any additional commands (drush fr, drush cc all, drush rsync, etc) that I configure in my capfile. Very easy to use, built on top of Capistrano, automatic backups of environments, etc.

  21. It's not just verisign, certificates from any CA can/are being used with the likes of this device.
