  2. Re:Isn't this slashdot? on Tagging Devices To Aid In Car Chases · · Score: 1

    First, this was designed by a private company, not a government organization, so this isn't considered a "technoligical government advance". Also, Bush didn't force the StarChase to develop this technology, nor did he force the LAPD to test it. Second, you don't need a warrant for probable cause, and I would certainly think that someone running from the police counts as such. Third, your privacy is not protected in your vehicle. Finally, as previously stated, Bush had nothing to do with this story, and your mentioning him is way off-topic.

    I view this math identical to a pyramid scheme: "Look, for the record, I know that there ain't no Gorgotron all right? I'm just doin' this for the Ferrari. You know some naked dude made 2 million dollars doing this outta the house?" * *Probably off-topic, but this is a Aqua Teen Hungerforce reference

    You need to lay off a bit; first you tell us that you are a heavy smoker, and then you say you aren't. Pot certainly does have an effect on your short-term memory.

    If you have to switch computers in order to view a website, it is not convenient.

  10. Re:Theft on Stolen U.C. Berkeley Laptop Recovered · · Score: 1

    I'm not entirely sure what our point is... The post that I responded to inferred that if the seller was interested solely in the data, she would not have sold the laptop.
    I hinted that she could have backed up the data she was interested in and sold the laptop for an additional $300.
