  1. felons lose their rights on RFID Bracelets to Track Inmates in L.A. County · · Score: 1

    This is not a violation of prisoner rights, they lose many rights when convicted. They are in jail, that reality is a loss of rights. Even after release they do not have the right to own a firearm, and probably many more rights are lost just by being a convicted felon.

  2. holes were 60% of grade on DJB Announces 44 Security Holes In *nix Software · · Score: 1

    I checked out the slides from their first day of class and it says that exams were 40% and finding the 10 security holes was 60% of their grades. I guess they all learned an important lesson on when to drop a class before it's too late.

  3. hotmail account on Gmail Adds Features · · Score: 2, Informative

    I opened my hotmail account in 1997 or 1998 and this week I noticed that I have the 250 MB storage limit on it now.

  4. Re:Why convert to hydrogen? on Solar-Hydrogen Eco-House · · Score: 1

    I think the iodea is to store the PV energy as hydrogen so that you still have power during dark hours. It would be more efficient to use the PV electricity directly and just use the excess for electrolysis. When the Hydrogen tank is full, then sure sell the excess back to the grid.

  5. not fully self sustaining on Solar-Hydrogen Eco-House · · Score: 1
    On the other hand, if the PV panels do not generate enough electricity to power the electrolysis system, power will be drawn from the grid.
    This does not sound "Fully" self sustaining to me. Although darn near as close a possible.
