  1. Re:...meth on FBI Investigating Series of Fiber Cuts In San Francisco Bay Area · · Score: 1

    > Federal agencies aren't particular well known for their ability to construct a meaningful basis for their beliefs, they generally prefer to make wild accusations and see what sticks if anything. That's the dumbest, most ridiculous, and honestly wrong comment on this thread. You really think the FBI just tosses random ideas at a wall during an investigation? Piece of advice: avoid the criminal life, you would not last long.

  2. Re:Proprietary Wireless on Microsoft Announces Customizable Xbox Elite Wireless Controller · · Score: 1

    When it comes to wireless keyboards, mice, and controllers those proprietary dongles make Bluetooth their bitch. Bluetooth (what other non proprietary wireless connection would you use) sucks for anything that requires low latency. No wait, Bluetooth pretty much sucks for anything.

    Hmm all these things exist today but he still used Facebook to disseminate his message. All the encryption in the world wasn't going to protect his anonymity with that little fact.

    Verifiable facts and anonymity do not go hand and hand very often.

    Yes because Facebook is behind author anonymity.. Oh wait no they aren't. Regardless of your feeling s on encryption, nothing in this story would be changed by access to stronger encryption. How could it? He used Facebook to disseminate the facts. A company that hates anonymity.

    Yeah we are sooo much better here...

    Peer review hasn't killed AGW so whats your problem with it? Of the scientists who have expressed an opinion on AGW 97.2% endorse the consensus. only .7% reject it.

    Now I understand science is not a popularity contest, but what are your credentials compared to theirs? If you are not willing to accept peer reviewed science then why the hell are you bothering to post here.
