  1. Dollar Shave Club on Ask Slashdot: Your Favorite Subscription Services? · · Score: 1

    Good razor, flexible options, reasonable price.

  2. Measles on New Test Could Reveal Every Virus That's Ever Infected You · · Score: 1

    I heard this article in the CBC. http://www.cbc.ca/radio/quirks... Here is a quote: "They found that in animal models, measles provokes a kind of "immune amnesia", in which the immune system forgets how to fight infections it's previously encountered. Further epidemiological work suggested that this amnesia can last more than two years, causing roughly 50% more deaths than would have happened otherwise." This would affect the validity of this test and makes me question if this is the only disease that has this affect.

  3. Speed on Multi-Target Photo-Radar System To Make Speeding Riskier · · Score: 2

    "It's also capable of instantly measuring a car's speed and mapping its position"
    A small point - but it is impossible to measure speed instantly.

  4. Editpad Pro ... on Programmer's Language-Aware Spell Checker? · · Score: 1

    ... seems to do this well for a good price. http://www.editpadpro.com/index.html

  5. Star Trek Online has potential ... on Star Trek Legacy Review · · Score: 1

    I have been a Trek fan (but not a hard core Trekkie) for more than 20 years and reading about what Star Trek Online hopes to do makes me hopeful it will be everything I ever wanted in a trek game. Maybe I am just a little off, but I actually want to be the 'engineer' down in the engine room during a battle monitoring the engines, shifting auxiliary power, overriding safety limits, re-routing power past damaged systems. Combine that with working as part of a 'crew' of real people all working together would be great.

    I just hope Perpetual is up to the task.

  6. If I worked at Apple ... on Apple iPhone - To Be, or Not to Be? · · Score: 5, Funny

    ... I would randomy put in things like 'phone related code'. Imagine the fun of sitting back and seeing what rumors would start.

  7. Why is a third party fix such a surprise? on Businesses Urged To Use Unofficial Windows Patch · · Score: 1

    I work in the automotive field for a Chrysler Dealer (and have worked for all three of the 'Big Three'over the last ten years) and often see aftermarket fixes come out months or years ahead of an OEM fix. Why is it such a surprise especially when the OEM supplier is Microsoft?

  8. incidentally .... on CPU Cooling with 15 Liters of Water · · Score: 2, Informative

    Most cars use less than 15L of coolant and run a lot hotter (Aprox 208F) ... you would think that a more efficient system could be developed.
