  1. Re:theft of service on Is WiFi Access Worth $10/hour? · · Score: 1

    $0 because the service isn't being "provided" by you - its provided by your ISP. Because of your shortcomings in not being able to secure your WLAN, you have no rights to sue anyone who accesses your unsecured network.

  2. Sadly this is whats required... on Shuttle Fleet Upgraded · · Score: 2, Informative

    "Those changes will be included as the direct result of the Columbia Accident Investigation Board's final report, released in August, which detailed 15 recommendations NASA must do before resuming shuttle flights"
    I, for one, am appalled that it took a spectacular explosion, mass media coverage and the unfortunate deaths of shuttle crew to be able to reach this point. Is this really what is required to be able for technology to advance? I once heard in a movie once, that the shuttle was the result of "the cheapest bidder". These are scientists that forsaw this coming a long time ago, and just to save their jobs and pride they kept quiet about the failures in the previous shuttle. Lets hope these boys grow some backbone in the newest version, and not try to cover it up with bells and whistles just to satisify the publics anxiety.
