  1. Re:Stealth? on Military Grounds Stealth Bomber Fleet · · Score: 5, Interesting

    ...and the fact that their wing sweep angle in relation to the tip of the nose is way too low to even approach supersonic speeds. You have to be below the mach angle in order to stay away from Mach drag divergence and the resulting huge increase in drag. Check out this for more info.

  2. PDA + Spacetime on The Best Graphing Calculator on the Market? · · Score: 1

    If you checkout spacetime from Spacetime Mobile, it is a really nice graphing (2d, 3d) calculator that does nearly everything i need up to linear algebra (including the four calculus classes). It's price has risen from $20 to $50, but it has also added features non-stop. The developer is extremely active in the forums, and usually takes into consideration what people are asking for in the next update. I see that some people have listed Palm's and calculator apps, but IMO, Windows Mobile has a lot more going for it, as well as a decent future.

  4. While searching for a job, I found a bug... on Reporting Vulnerabilities Is For The Brave · · Score: 3, Interesting

    ...Basically, I was job hunting and a friend directed me to a website of his company who was hiring. Now, instead of typing "www.company.com" i typed in "company.com". Boom, I'm presented with a database login. Hmm, I thought this was maybe for the job search, and didnt see a register button, so I just hit login. I was then presented with what I THOUGHT was a fake database...kind of like the example php websites you can "login" to to get a taste for the app. I wasn't 100% sure, but eventually decided to try running a sql command...I changed all the company descriptions (it was a hiring agency) to "Change your admin password!" I then realized (late I know), that this was a REAL database after more poking around and finding real names/phone #'s/emails. I found the head of the company's email and politely told her there is a SERIOUS hole in her system. She (VERY) quickly responded with her phone number that I already knew and asked me to call. So, being the good citizen that I was, I called. Ha! She immediately asked my personal information which I was hesitant to give, and resorted to only giving my first name. Then she connected me with the "IT guy" if you could call him that, and I explained what I had did and how I did it. Throughout this whole conversation I was very nervous and got the feeling that I was being criminalized. After the whole ordeal was over (luckily they had backups), she offered me the job that I was initially seeking, but I politely refused stating I didn't feel comfortable working for a company that was as insecure as hers.

  5. Access to nukes on Biometrics: Prepare to be Scanned · · Score: 1

    Is only a swipe of the card, weigh of my body, entering of my pin, and scanning of my hand.

    Whats funny though, is that my right hand down in the scanner works the same as my left hand upside down. guess it only scans proportions?

    From their Site...

    " Magnus-Opus

    You may be inadvertently performing one of the Magnus-Opus melody series each time you use your telecommunications device (telephone, mobile telephone, modem and other internet devices).

    In order to ascertain if you are in breach of international copyright law you may enter any alpha-numeric sequence you may be using via your telecommunications device in our dialogue box below. This will compare your number with our melody database. If your number should match one of our compositions the melody and opus number will be displayed. You should then complete a licence agreement as soon as possible. "

    Lol... this is too funny

  11. I can see it already.... on Copyright Claimed on Telephone Tones · · Score: 1

  12. Hindenburg on Hydrogen-Powered Aircraft == Anti-Terrorist Device? · · Score: 1

    Or however its spelled... this would be IMO at least twice as powerful a burst.. since they would probably use compressed H2, meaning more H2 in there, meaning more fuel for an explosion. just my .02

  13. Uhhh... on Slashback: Safety, Transmissions, Breakage · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Go ahead and score this as insightful O' modera-tors....

    The Bunker offers the ultimate in protection from a myriad of attacks including; crackers, terrorist attack, electro-magnetic pulse, HERF weapons, electronic eavesdropping and solar flares.

    That seems kind of confusing to me that it offers protection against electronic eavesdropping, as doesn't the building need to connect to the "outside world" somehow? As long as a single line filled with data is coming out of the building, it isn't protected fully. Now if they could secure the lines all the way to uhh, the end user's house...THEN it would be superior.
