  1. I was excited on Freescale's Cheap Chip Could Mean Sub-$99 E-Readers · · Score: 1

    For a moment I was excited, I thought the article was about eepc for $99 soon not an e-reader. I personally couldn't care less about e-readers, while a nice idea I personally dont read enough print material to justify needing anything like that.

    Wake me when they make a usable netbook under a 100

  2. TIVO isn't dead but its not flourishing either. on The Sad History and (Possibly) Bright Future of TiVo · · Score: 1

    I looked into getting a TIVO when I finally sacked up and got satellite TV.
    I decided on the $5 a month DVR rental from my satellite company.
    True they own it, and I rent it, & they monitor my viewing habits but I dont really care about that
    For 60 bucks a month I get to DVR my shows, sure Id love to download them to other sources but its hard to beat the $60 a year value.
    And every couple years I upgrade it and get a bigger badder version.
    I see my DVR just like broadband internet & my smart phone. Once I have it Im never going back.

  8. Just to unlock Bill Gates wiki page on Google Donates $2 Million To the Wikimedia Foundation · · Score: 1

  13. Shocking on New Material Transforms Car Bodies Into Batteries · · Score: 1

    Does this mean Im going to shock myself every time I get in the car by grounding it?
    Couldn't they just put socks on the car and walk around on the carpet for a while?

  14. Effective on FBI Pushing For 2-Year Retention of Web Traffic Logs · · Score: 1

    Would this really be effective even if they have a year old log where you went?
    So it told you I went to website.com/kiddyporn.html
    You go look at that exact site now and it could have unicorns on it.
    Just knowing where someone goes is useless unless you log all the data they saw when they were there not what is there now.
    Of course you could store all data but good luck with that.

  15. HaCKERZ on Meet the Military's Cyber-Security Forces · · Score: 1

  20. Efficency in building on Slime Mold Could Lead To Better Tech · · Score: 5, Interesting

    In college 1 of my professors told us a story... A complex built several large buildings all on the same block. They didn't install any sidewalks or walkways just grass. They waited 1 year and looked at the grass. They built sidewalks wherever there was a path in the grass. The bigger the path the bigger the sidewalk. I thought it was an interesting idea. So many times I look back and try to wonder what the engineer/designer was thinking.

  24. Watch a movie called Food Inc. on Organ Damage In Rats From Monsanto GMO Corn · · Score: 1

    I just watched a movie called Food Inc. It was disturbing / eye opening at the same time. Rather depressing actually. It goes over a brief overview of the US food industry and touches a little on the Monsanto company.
    Please check it out http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1286537/
    After watching it, I had to rewatch just to truly absorb all the info.
