  1. Re:Oh geee. on Wildfire Threatens Los Alamos Labs · · Score: 1

    They still make nuclear weapons at LANL. They have plutonium facilities there. There's more radioactive waste material there than just about anywhere else in the world. So, you're wrong, and STFU.

    And that isn't a valid concern?

    There's probably a lot more radioactive material at LANL than Fukushima, with a lot less containment.

    Wow, that's a perfect example of why people don't develop for Android - more ways not to get paid.

    Since Rovio hasn't actually said what the revenues were, I doubt any of the numbers are verifiable or true.

    They make way more on the free ad version than they do on the paid one

    You might want to go look at those revenue links. They don't actually say that. They say them might, in the future, maybe.

    So, they "made" $1M in ad revenue from android - per month, in the future, maybe. Assuming that it doesn't fall out of favor, or that people don't get sick of the ads.

    From your article, there were 12M downloads on iOS. Which means $11.88M in app revenue from iOS. Already, as of December 2010 - before the iPad2. Which funded the ad revenue model on Android.

    No, but given all the hacks/security risks that allow flash to run in unrestricted userspace, there really isn't much difference.

    Can you explain to me, from your security point of view, how this is any different than using flash or silverlight on the web? Using those technologies, you're loading code form a website to be executed on a driver supplied to you by a third party which does NOT have a stellar security record.

    You should be worried. The wheels of justice move slowly. Who knows when the cops will get those pictures of you at the game/work/else where?

    Now imagine that the pictures are of your son - aged 15. You're not always sure where he is. It's not documented. But someone posted a pic of him saying he was in Vancouver, participating in the riot.

    Again, he may not be guilty, but that doesn't mean his and your lives won't be miserable for a while.

    Well, see pictures from the riots in Vancouver last night.

    Now imagine someone impersonating you. And posting your info. So that the cops can arrest you. As is happening right now in Vancouver.

    You may not be guilty, but that doesn't mean your life won't be hell for a while.

    A perfect example of where percentages are meaningless.

    Because you don't seem well educated. Radiation is a natural phenomenon and the earth will never be 'free' of it. Most high schoolers are aware of this.

    From wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chiropractic_education

    Although the U.S. Department of Education lists the D.C.M. (Doctor of Chiropractic Medicine) as a type of degree granted to chiropractors, the degree has never actually been conferred by any academic institution.
