  6. Who's forming the group? on India Forms Expert Group on Google Earth Images · · Score: 4, Informative

    Submitter, don't put something in quotes if you have paraphrased it or changed it. You completely changed what that article says. Your subject says one thing and then the content says another.

    Actual Quote from Article: "Concerned over satellite images of its strategic installations being made available in the public domain by internet search engine Google, India has decided to constitute an expert group to suggest ways to safeguard the country's interests."

  7. Good thing... on Hubble finds Mass of White Dwarf · · Score: 1

    they are decommissioning Hubble. It hasn't ammounted to anything anyway.

  8. So we know that security will be covered in Vista on Zone-Spoofing Fixed for IE 7 Home Users · · Score: 4, Interesting

    But where is the innovation?

    I'll be honest, I haven't followed the Vista track that closely, but I have yet to hear of any evolutional or even revolutional features that I can look forward to. I read the slashdots and the diggs of the internet so, are these sources too Google and Apple happy to report on the Windows front? Or is there simply nothing to report?

    Other than Metro and their attempts at making their OS work like Tiger, what is left?

    Don't say security.

  9. When will the rest of the world sign on? on Apple Adds New TV Shows To iTunes · · Score: 4, Informative

    Evidently TV is still only downloadable at the US iTunes store.

  10. The only reason they are releasing this... on Security Flaws Allow Wiretaps to be Evaded · · Score: 1

    is so they can let people know their HILARIOUS counterfeit mattresses joke.

  11. Apple's move to get video on the ipod on Mac mini, Apple DVR? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    This makes perfect sense. Now you will be able to have some sort of integration between the DVR app and iTunes to load up your iPod with your saved tv shows...

    But now that I think about it, this would cannibalize iTunes TV show sales... Maybe this is all rumor?

  12. This would be better... on The Lego Brick Hard Drive · · Score: 3, Insightful

    if the surface of the enclosure was made from actual lego rivets so that you could build on top of it.

    This product kindof serves a different purpose.

  15. Re:Toe in the water on Mac OS X x86 Put To The Test · · Score: 1

    Well then maybe I'm completely wrong and should cash in my mod points now. But you are telling me that supporting any whitebox on the street would take no more effort on the part of Apple when developing their next operating system?

  16. Re:Toe in the water on Mac OS X x86 Put To The Test · · Score: 3, Insightful

    No they won't. The whole reason people buy macs is for the stability of OSX. If apple had to start supporting 3rd party hardware, this level of stability would severely drop.

  17. Are we serious here? on Mac OS X x86 Put To The Test · · Score: 4, Insightful

    "Put to the test?" = Installing pre-release software on hardware it wasn't developed for?

    Can't we just wait until Apple ships a mac with intel inside? I love Apple and everything, but this barrage of useless Apple articles has got to stop.

  18. Re:Microsoft's striking absence on History's Worst Software Bugs · · Score: 3, Informative

    Do people just open an article, do a Ctrl+F and type microsoft to find something 'juciy'? If you would have RTFA you would have seen that the 'Ping Of Death' was mentioned which did impact Windows machines.

  19. Re:CAPTCHAs on Amazon's Mechanical Turk · · Score: 1

    Why not make a program that captures the CAPTCHA image on slashdot and uploads it on a webserver for people to read it and enter the text and then that information is sent back to a robot trying to post and then voila!
