  1. Seeds of conflict on Ask Richard Dawkins About Evolution, Religion, and Science Education · · Score: 1

    Dear Professor Dawkins Recently I've read books about the Rwandan genocide and one recurrent theme was just how long ago the seeds for the genocide of 94 were, perhaps inadvertently, sown. Looking around the world today, what seeds do you see being sown now which may lead to devastating, but hopefully avoidable, conflicts and massacres in the decades to come?

  2. Careful what you wish for... on Thousands of Muslims Protest 'Age of Mockery' At Google's London Headquarters · · Score: 2

    Self-employed businessman Ahmed Nasar said he was worried the video could lead to violence in Britain in the same way as it had abroad. "If you push people too far," he said, "You will turn the peaceful elements into violence."

    That's a door that can swing BOTH ways Mr Nasar. Do be careful what you wish for and have yourself a nice day sir...

  3. Is it just me... on Successful Engine Test in UK For Planned 1000 mph Car · · Score: 2

    ...or do all these land speed records seem to boil down to just how fast you can scrape a de-winged jet aircraft along the ground?

  4. I for one... on Grumman Building Football Field-Sized Robotic Surveillance Blimp · · Score: 1

    Insert obligatory "welcome our x overlords" here.

  5. Re:A bit of hyperbole... on Open Millions of Hotel Rooms With Arduino · · Score: 1

    What's to stop a nasty person with this keyhack from waiting until you're out, and then accessing your room to steal stuff

    or waiting for you to come back...

  6. Legacy robberies on Open Millions of Hotel Rooms With Arduino · · Score: 1

    There may be quite a number of people who have had items stolen from rooms "secured" by these locks now wondering what really happened. I also wonder whether there are any fired hotel staff who have been wronged in this. As Brocious points out, the hack is rather trivial and he's unlikely to have been the first/only person to have figured it out. Brocious > Onity : Oops I accidentally your whole business.
