  1. Re:Just pay attention already. on Siri's Creator Challenges Texting-While-Driving Study · · Score: 1

    All I get from your rant is selfishness.
    You want to do whatever the hell you want and damn the consequences. If you can't see that texting and driving (especially with a touchscreen phone) is a major distraction, you are either incredibly stupid or flat out lying.

    I'd mod you down but I went back and checked you posts, modding you down would be a waste of my points since your just as big an idiot as the gp.

    You guys deserve each other.

    So they drop support for the routers everyone has and want you to build your own router from a raspberry. Sounds like a plan for success.

    You fail at reading.

    Because, "Furlong's card was subsequently re-charged for the $125,000 but this time American Express refused to credit his account, saying that Salesforce.com had provided "authorization for the charge and a signed contract and order form stating that no cancellations or refunds would be allowed," according to his suit."

    Your right. It's been around longer then 50 years

    Researchers estimate that sometime in the 1930s a form of simian immunodeficiency virus, SIV, jumped to humans in central Africa. The mutated virus became the first human immunodeficiency virus, HIV-1.

    yes because finding software that is hipaa compliant and runs on linux is so easy for your average medical practice.

  16. Re:Certification on Some Windows XP Users Can't Afford To Upgrade · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Your right, it's probably running on NT4 or something like that. I have seen many instances of embedded NT or 2000 still in use in the medical field. (Radiology labs is where I see it but I would guess that maturity and stability of the software and drivers negates the need for upgrades in many medical devices)

    in Boston I think the Police request that everyone stay indoors was fine. there were no laws imposed, no one was arrested for leaving their house. Some were questioned if they were in the search area. But please tell me what rights have been lost in Boston. Please be specific.

  22. Re: Slippery slope. on Bruce Schneier On the Marathon Bomber Manhunt · · Score: 1

    Well the entire city of Boston was quite strongly affected by the marathon bombing. To say differently denies the psychological effect these acts have on a region. And the lockdown was not an effect of the bombing but the 1am shootout with the suspects that included explosives being tossed at police.

    So now that you'v schooled my, it seems you completely understood the point I was trying to reach. Yet instead of responding to the actual content of my post you instead try and embarrass me by pointing out my error. My question to you sir, is did you just join in on this thread to point out others errors, or do you have anything on topic to add?
