  1. Health on Delving Into Google Health's Privacy Concerns · · Score: 1

    If you need Google to list all of the health records, you should be worried about more than just someone finding out some information...

  2. Design on 3G iPhone Expected in June · · Score: 1

    I can't wait to see whether they will change the design or not. I have a feeling that design changes will have a negative affect for SDK developers due to the touch screen design...

  3. MS on Bad Science Journalism Gets Schooled · · Score: 1

    I just have to say that in my personal opinion I'm not surprised that MS didn't do well, but last? How does a browser last this long that doesn't support the majority of web standards?

  4. Plasma on 3D Animations In Mid-Air Using Plasma Balls · · Score: 1

    Good thing this article is from 2006. C'mon Slashdot...

  5. Subs on Google Maps Shows Chinese Nuclear Sub Prototype · · Score: 0

    That is kind of scary. I know that it's in every countries best interest to update there military vehicles, but still a bad thought to say the least.

  6. iPhone on Apple and AT&T Announce iPhone Service Plans · · Score: 1

    I don't think the iPhone can be unlocked or I wouldn't even worry about it. One of the big features of the iPhone is the visual voicemail and that wouldn't work with any other providers. One of course, can choose not to use that function and be happy with the phone but what's the point?

  7. Vista on Microsoft Pleads With Consumers to Adopt Vista Now · · Score: 1

    Pleading? That will bring good results. Leave it to Microsoft to plead. On a side note, I run Vista and it's quite annoying. Given the chance again, I wouldn't have purchased a new Laptop with that installed.

  8. Spam on Spammer Robert Soloway Arrested · · Score: 1

    Or, you can be like me and block most of the ip blocks in China. That reduces spam by about 60%. =)

  9. Edit on Ad-Supported Free Music Downloads Doomed to Failure? · · Score: 1

    It's not THAT bad of an idea but wouldn't you just edit out the commercial/advertisement and save it as a new file?

  10. Privacy on Outcry Over Google's Purchase of Doubleclick · · Score: 1

    I don't see how they can make a claim that Google would operate without regard to privacy? They're still held accountable for the actions taken and are required by law to protect the privacy of others. Buy all they want, collect my data, just don't give it out.

  11. Krypto on 'Kryptonite' Discovered in Serbian Mine · · Score: 1

    That's really interesting that it was referenced in a movie like that and with the same elements no doubt. Wonder if someone had discovered it prior but never documented anything?

  12. FCC on FCC Says No to Mobile Phones on Airplane · · Score: 1

    For the first time, I'm can say that I'm proud of the FCC. Thank you for this decision!

  13. YouTube on YouTube Announces First Award Winners · · Score: 1

    Great marketing idea. I can't believe all the user submissions and YouTube marketing on this is a great thing.

  14. Gphone on Google Working on a Mobile Phone? · · Score: 2

    If Google were to make a phone, I would say go with VOIP with some WiFi. Would be nice around the house.

  15. XM/Sirius on XM And SIRIUS Radio Merging · · Score: 1

    I hope that they retain the XM name. It's fitting.

  16. MS on Microsoft Slugs Mac Users With Vista Tax · · Score: 1

    It's competition for Microsoft. I'm not sure why they would charge a Mac user more for the OS?

  17. Spam on Fight Spam With Nolisting · · Score: 1

    Spam is a result of poorly configured networks. That's it.

  18. Keynote on Why the iPhone Keynote Was A Mistake · · Score: 1

    In my thinking that if they use the keynote correctly, they can make some necessary changes before the release.

  19. Spam on Spam is Back With A Vengence · · Score: 1

    Stopping image spam is going to take writing Captchas to identify the spam. I don't see an end to this any time soon.

  20. Solar on Solar Power Eliminates Utility Bills in U.S. Home · · Score: 1

    I would definitely try to get something like this going. Electricity bills are just terrible right now.

  21. Space on Extraterrestrials Probably Haven't Found Us - Yet · · Score: 1

    That Cassini spacecraft is moving at 71581.9613 miles per hour. Not bad...

  22. Speed on Seagate Claims 2.5" SCSI Drive is World's Fastest · · Score: 1

    Zoom zoom zoom! I've never been a fan of SCSI, but then again, I've never used it on any personal PC. Some opinion.

  23. Privacy on Feds Check Credit Reports Without a Subpoena · · Score: 2, Insightful

    And so it continues. It's just sad that each day, more and more of this information is published. We'll have no rights/freedom shortly.

  24. Islands on Global Warming Exposes New Islands in the Arctic · · Score: 2, Insightful

    It will be interesting to see what else is under the ice. The melting is definitely something we should be concerned about.

  25. Metric on How Can We Convert the US to the Metric System? · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    The reason that the United States doesn't switch to the Metric system is because 99% of the people are to ignorant or are not intelligent enough to understand.
