  3. Re:A better idea... on Surgical Tools to Include RFID · · Score: 1

    Before closing a patient, doctors would

    Only before is not suficient, because during various stages of "closing the patient" process, additional surgical tools are often placed inside, especialy during more complex surgeries. Also, often you cannot remove all tools from open patient - e.g. the ones that hold veins and/or arteries closed

  4. Re:JProfililer on Java Profilers - Which One Are You Using? · · Score: 1

    JProfiler is perfect for memory consumption issues.

  8. Re:Revenge Blog Has Enabled Google Ads on Online Revenge · · Score: 1

    Well, the fact that google ads are there doesn't proove anything yet. First of all, that guy could not know that this site will attract such huge attention, and secondly - maybe he's just trying to get some money back (from what he wasted on laptop). Regaring disputes - all inquiries and questions are logged in eBay, when you send question, complaint or whatever to seller. So thats the place to check first, imho.

  11. Re:2 ears, 2 speakers on Why 7.1 Surround Sound is Overkill For Most Homes · · Score: 2, Interesting

    there is difference - 7.1 receivers in same price segment will perform worse (in terms of sound quality) than 5.1, not even speaking about stereo (stereo amplifiers usually can be compared to receivers that have 2x price).
    This is because price per channel - the more channels and various decoder electronics you put, the less buget you have for sound quality (cheaper tranistors, capacitors, poweer supply, etc.)

    form OSx86 site:

    "Apple is certainly well within their rights to protect their OS and we have always supported them in this effort. Our first-class moderating staff has helped ensure that direct links to any patches are not allowed. We have in the past linked to the homepage of Maxxuss - but not to the offending 10.4.4 patches - in the interest of news, but we've removed those links just in case."

    funny thing, they removed links to supposedly infriging site, but put name of this site on the front page - using it as google keyword will lead you to the same site from the first hit :)))

  17. Re:Wish List on NASA Planning Six More Centennial Challenges · · Score: 1

    the main difference between X-Prize and NASA challenges is that research and development investments made by X-Prize participants had long-term value - even after tha challenge is over,, they still continue development (aimed for low cost launches and space toursim). There was a marked for that

    and what NASA challenge participant would do after e.g. pressure suit competition is over? Open space suit shop?
    Given that potential of return of investments is so small, the size of awards is ridiculous

    They almost tricked me with PayPal "request to update account information" - still bothering me from my first (and only) paypal transaction..
    good thing i'm using gmail - it detects faked sender emails, and labels it as spam

    actually, gmail is doing alot more to protect me from these phishers than paypal itself - the only response i get from paypal when submiting phishing report is automated reply message.
