  1. Re:I fail to see what is newsworthy on Man Wants to Donate His Heart Before He Dies · · Score: 1

    And if you make it opt-in and someone gets into an accident and can't be identified for whatever reason (do you always carry your ID when you leave the house?) his wishes aren't going to be respected.

    Not really, most likely hospitals will be instructed not to get organs from persons whose identity (and hence preference) cannot be confirmed. Anyway, if default is to harvest, then there would be more than sufficient organs available from identifiable people.

  2. Re:There is no way NASA mixed the measurement syst on The Big Technical Mistakes of History · · Score: 1

    Oh I dunno. I would be hard put to find something sillier than a inches/cms mixup on a mission of that importance.

  3. Counter-suit on User Charged With Taking ISP Tech Hostage · · Score: 4, Interesting

    The actress said she called her provider, Aliant, one last time, disguising her voice to sound like a man and telling the company she needed her connection right away because she was a businessman. "Lo and behold, they said someone would be over between 8 and 11 the next morning." This after the usual wall-of-please-holds she got earlier.
    Sue their asses away.

  4. Damage SCO's lunacy might cause. on My Visit to SCO · · Score: 0, Redundant

    While, SCO's claims seem to be destined to fizzle out eventually, I fear they may have caused enough damage by then. This will give fodder to anti-linux lobbby claiming this is something that would never happen with a proprietary. Yeah, Linux may be great, but look at "these problems" with "this kinda software".
