  1. stating the obvious... on Examining Religious Bias In Filtering Software · · Score: 1

    Wouldn't it just make SENSE, that for a program that helps to guide children along a 'morally sound' development, there is a huge interest from the religious community? How about Jewish organizations, did they check for those? Or Muslim? I'll bet (in proportion) they're just as strong. Or...here's a crazy idea...maybe even SCHOOLS use this software (and don't they keep religion out of EVERYTHING?)

  2. Re:Apple competes on Hack Turns iPod into PDA · · Score: 1

    That's probably true, actually...he's so filled with visions of 'sleek new designs' (molded computer shells and neon colored iMacs, and cubes that don't need fans), that he's beginning to overlook actual performance

  3. Shake your hand, take your $$ on The Timex Speedpass Watch · · Score: 1

    What happens if someone finds a way to side-step security measures on this, and gets your credit/debit card info just by getting close to your watch (or capturing the broadcast data)?

  4. Apple competes on Hack Turns iPod into PDA · · Score: 1

    Now what happens if Apple offers an iPod II, with Palmpilot-like software, if this innovation turns out to be a hit? So much for Windows CE, eh? Unless Microsoft wants to start fighting them based on the grounds of "We got here first!"

  5. Re:why would people have broken bones? on Slippery Slime Developed to Control Crowds · · Score: 1

    Chicago, I'm willing to bet, has the same ice as wherever you're from...and it's quite common to fall and break your arm and/or shatter your wrist trying not to hit the ground. Hell, people do it on muddy ground in sports all the time, without being hit.

  6. Kickback on Slippery Slime Developed to Control Crowds · · Score: 1

    can you imagine trying to fire an AK-47 on something like that? It'd be the ice capades in 7.62mm Worth watching, no doubt.
