Why is this notable? There's always someone going around commenting on how nothing is notable.

Thanks for the WTF link about gloves. It fits in with my current premature optimizer recovery program. And here I was thinking "removable grips that have water or other material you heat up before you ride".
This whole community standard nonsense to allow cenorship is wrong. My neighbors should have absolutely NO say on the content of books, movies, music, or video games I play in my own home.
Yeah, but this is about what they can view in their homes. By having this available, you're forcing them to run the risk of accidentally visiting those sites. After all, hardcoreporn.com is so easy to mistype when you meant naturescenes.com, since the keys are so close together after all.
(I have a 102, and it was a great machine to learn machine language on, and hardware interfacing... I still have it a few feet away, for hardware interfacing and stuff)
I think it's warning the batteries that they will be warned, kind of like recently with Windows 7 RC. Trust me, you don't want to startle a Li-ion battery.
"not necessarily effective" doesn't mean "ineffective". By saying "free but x", you're saying that free implies "not x", not just "not necessarily x". If it were the latter, you wouldn't describe it as being apparently contradictory to it being free.
Then I throw out that number completely, and just multiply the time it took me to develop that script by five. This method has proven disturbingly accurate.
So in other words, you could offer to the one asking for an estimate, "I can give you an estimate, or complete the project 17% faster; your choice."
Do you REALLY consider any form of encryption as impossible to crack? I'd say all of them are a matter of time.
One time pad. If you're trying to guess the pad, you might as well just try to guess the message itself, without even bothering with the encrypted data.
Obviously a mod who doesn't understand TPM. Or maybe he picked up on the (entirely appropriate) negative undertone of my message, directed at those who want to lock you out of your own computer.
I don't really call any hack that requires "physical access" to be a genuine danger. If someone has physical access to your box you've got greater worries.
Yes, but remember that TPM is about keeping you our of your own computer, so those who would like to do so are worried about this.
The only smartphone Linus Torvalds doesn't hate is that much less unlikable now that Google has quietly chopped $200 off its early termination fee on the Nexus One.
It'd be nice if the summary told us who Linus Torvalds is, rather than just assuming we know everyone in the tech world.
Cheap lead-based solder could be used with the RoHS label.
Sorry, what? Lead-based solder is more reliable than that RoHS crap that's pushed on us these days. I agree that using lead solder in a process suited only for lead-free solder would be a disaster.
security specialists highly recommend formatting any new computers or equipment and installing fresh software/firmware from a known good source.
Here's something I can never solve: how do you reliably reflash a compromised device's firmware? If it's compromised, it could just patch the new firmware you send to it, or claim it reflashed it when it didn't do anything.
Who said I was talking about the latest XCode? This was back in the Tiger days. Old? Sure, but I can point you to several programs that should have worked fine on 10.3.9, but don't, due to this issue.

Yeah, I hate it when that happens. Wait, what were we talking about again?

Yes, but your Model 100 doesn't run Linux.

There, fixed that for you. Saying "free but effective" suggests that free implies ineffective.

Thanks; I stand corrected, and now consider my original message trollish.

Not require constant feeding? Just a guess...

I meant for my original post to be modded funny, not insightful. So yeah, agreed all the way.
How do you know the old code they were removing wasn't an evil spirit or malign influence?
First they came for 4chan, and I did not speak out -- because I was not a 4chan member...
I guess that means I dead-panned it properly.

Have you got a list of the restricted bytes? Actually, it'd be simpler if you just listed which bits are restricted, 0s, 1s, or possibly both...

Finally, an article summary that explainings who some obscure person is, rather than assuming we know everyone in the tech universe.
