  1. People call 911 with actual information. on Computer Incident Response and Product Security · · Score: 1

    "I've been shot" tells the 911 operator a lot more then "the computers not working" tells the support department.

  2. Re:astounding ! on Wikileaks Movie Coming To the Big Screen · · Score: 1

    Make up your mind! Do you want Jim Carey in the movie or do you want it to be a comedy?

  3. Re:The meaning of random on Greenland Ice Sheet Melts At Record Rate In 2010 · · Score: 1

    I'm willing to bet that number is higher for some people.

  4. Re:The meaning of random on Greenland Ice Sheet Melts At Record Rate In 2010 · · Score: 4, Informative

    You know from ice, fossil and biological records.

  5. Re:Aren't there already products like this? on Apple Files Patent For Display Mouse · · Score: 1

    No ones done this yet because it will be VERY expensive and wear out just as fast as any other mouse.

  6. Should have had a notice rather then just disable. on Mozilla Flips Kill-Switch On Skype Toolbar · · Score: 1

    I would much rather a pop up told the user that addon X has problems and then give them the option to disable it.

  7. Re:Already has 300+ years of development on Michigan Governor Wants 'Open Source' Economic Model · · Score: 1

    They would have to leave the US to have a true free market. Doubt they want to do that. So they're stuck with subsidies, buyouts and regulations. Not saying those are bad things, but they do make a free market impossible.

  8. Re:Here's my model on Michigan Governor Wants 'Open Source' Economic Model · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Because its open source, I'm going to make the following changes to your model and submit it.

    1. Spend what ever you feel like, income is a different department anyhow so its their problem.
    2. When cutting spending, cut which ever program will cause the most news (good or bad).
    3. Borrow more from another source and use it to pay as much as you are required to on existing debts. Excess borrowed funds can be used for what ever (see point 1).
    4. Dont round any figure, just add or remove zeros. After all, zeros are nothing!

  9. To be fair, the email never said "penis" on California Spam Law Upheld By Appeals Court · · Score: 3, Interesting

    So can you actually prove that your p3n15 did NOT get bigger?

  10. Re:This will be great! on Canadian Firm Plans 78-Satellite Net Service · · Score: 1

    Only 6ms round trip. At that distance, you're looking at as little as 3ms each way (6ms round trip from ground to satellite and then back). Of course it will be higher then that, but its not going to be a major hindrance.

  11. Wonder how much PB is paying for this. on The iPad Will Get Playboy In March · · Score: 1

    Its the only explanation as to why swim suite catalogs are verboten but Play Boy is OK.

  12. As goes Yahoo, so goes.... someone? on Yahoo IPv6 Upgrade Could Shut Out 1M Users · · Score: 0

    I really cant recall the last time myself or anyone I know accessed Yahoo. Are they really still relevant?

  13. Um...how is this different then anything else? on Unsecured IP Cameras Accessible To Everyone · · Score: 1

    Unsecured X on the internet is accessible! This has been true since Arpnet and when you could dial an 800 number on your 300bps modem to access Telnet.

  14. Re:Nice selective editing! on Goldman Sachs Says No Facebook Shares For US Investors · · Score: 1

    Thats what I thought as well. Wasn't the whole point in this that they're taking investors without disclosing their financials?

  15. Which GUI? on Advice On Teaching Linux To CS Freshmen? · · Score: 1

    That alone should keep the little SOBs bussy for a few weeks, and then the fighting can start.

  16. Re:Yeah, but... on NASA Says 2010 Tied For Warmest Year On Record · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Looks pretty dramatic and alarming to me, about a +0.4c average increase across the time frame.

  17. Re:anyone else here... on Apple Releases IOS 4.3 Beta To Developers · · Score: 1

    You forget. Anytime Apple uses a term, they surplant any prior usage of said term. A team will be along shortly to remove the part of your brain that contains the Ciso/IOS link.

  18. Re:Market Share? on Google To Drop Support For H.264 In Chrome · · Score: 1

    Given how many existing pages and systems dont work with Chrome, I'm gona say "no".

  19. Thought there was no "idle" mode... on Microsoft Looking Into Windows Phone 7's 'Excessive' Data Use · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Wasn't the whole point of these new phones all the little windows constantly being updated with the latest Twitter, etc data?

  20. Re:not really a surprise... on Hospital Wireless Networks May Be Regulated Medical Devices · · Score: 2

    You sound just like the delivery guy from the chinese restaurant.

  21. Re:not really a surprise... on Hospital Wireless Networks May Be Regulated Medical Devices · · Score: 1

    You fool! You're suposed to let the free market decide! If too many people die at hospital A, just go to hospital B!

  23. Good? on Hospital Wireless Networks May Be Regulated Medical Devices · · Score: 2

    Current level of security and quality for medical IT is rather poor.

  25. Re:And yet, on The Moon Has a Fluid Outer Core · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I know I'm not suposed to engage crazy people. But most things in the solar system look unique, its not that big a place, and there are other grey lumps of rock and dirt here.
