  1. Re:T-mobile? Seriously? on Google Nexus Rumored To Cost $530 Or $180 w/Plan · · Score: 1

    AT&T's woes are from being overused in the big cities. T-Mobile doesn't have these problems in the big cities. Data service in the suburbs and rural areas is a different problem entirely.

  2. Re:Fix the headline? on Consumerist Says AT&T Site Won't Sell iPhone In NYC, Citing Network · · Score: 1

    When did you last check?

  3. Re:It's a conspiricy! on Simulation of Close Asteroid Fly-By · · Score: 1

    they've already got the plan in place to open a hyperspace window on one side of the earth and have it come out the other side

  4. relative risk on Simulation of Close Asteroid Fly-By · · Score: 2, Informative

    apparently there is a better chance of this happening than getting struck by lightning. http://www.lightningsafety.com/nlsi_pls/probability.html what happens when a slider tries to visit that world?

  5. Re:Danger... or opportunity? on Simulation of Close Asteroid Fly-By · · Score: 3, Insightful

    looking at the simulation, the amount of energy required to bring this into any orbit at all seems really really really high

  6. Re:organic buzzword on Did Chandrayaan Find Organic Matter On the Moon? · · Score: 4, Funny

    they just meant it's pesticide free

  7. Re:Well on White House Holding Piracy Summit · · Score: 2, Interesting

    tbh, it'd be nice if even creator rights advocates were there at least. mpaa and riaa do not truly have the content creators best interests at heart

  8. Re:Wake up Australia on Aussie Gov't To Introduce Bill That Would Require ISP-Level Censorship · · Score: 1

    I can't believe the Obama administration went to Australia for broadband advice.

  9. Re:Does Not Look Good for Arrington on Arrington Responds To the JooJoo, Files Suit · · Score: 1

    I would assume they would be considered trade secrets or covered under copyright. And Arrington noted that that lawsuit would have to come from Pegatron, which would make sense if they are the owners.

  10. Re:Does Not Look Good for Arrington on Arrington Responds To the JooJoo, Files Suit · · Score: 4, Interesting

    According to Arrington, a lot of the hardware IP is technically owned by Pegatron, to be exclusively licensed to Crunchpad. However, it seems that Fusion Garage has taken that IP to another ODM to get it manufactured which would be IP theft if that is the case.

  11. Re:The Norse Were Right! on Gigantic Spiral of Light Observed Over Norway; Rocket To Blame? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    are you sure it wasn't the asgard vs the goauld over scandinavia?

  12. Re:Make sure. on The Space Garbage Scow, ala Cringely · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Mod parent up. In addition, tiny specks acting as micrometeorites are probably a much bigger problem than the bigger avoidable pieces. Hitting all that big junk together in a net at orbital speeds will probably result in even more micrometeorites.

  14. Re:Any have a decent Camera? on 50+ Android Phones Expected In Near Future · · Score: 2, Interesting

    g1 has autofocus and takes pictures of documents reasonably well. here's one i just took.

  15. soundes extremely dangerous on Ultracapacitor Bus Recharges At Each Stop · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    isn't the voltage across ultracapacitors really large with a large charge? if that cap explodes, i could see it being very very bad.
    also what about times when the bus doesn't need to pick up or drop of passengers? just stop the bus anyways?

  16. Re:Why is the link incorrect? on Author Encourages Users to Pirate His Book · · Score: 2, Informative

    the author of the article redirect all requests to his page to go to the cancer site.

  17. Re:I don't think so... on Author Encourages Users to Pirate His Book · · Score: 1

    The editor is hired by the publisher, so the editor's work under the publisher is copyrighted by the publisher.

  18. retaliation on FBI Investigates Liberator of Court Records · · Score: 5, Insightful

    if you look too closely at the gov't, they'll look too closely at you.

  19. Re:What about clotting? on Artificial Heart Recipient Has No Pulse · · Score: 5, Insightful

    I think you just proved that what you heard was wrong.

  20. I lock my computer when I walk away on Schneier On Un-Authentication · · Score: 2, Informative

    ctl + alt + del -> k on windows, and ctrl + alt + l on ubuntu. that's all. a lot of offices also have windows security policies set to lock the screen after 5 minutes idle.

  21. proof of concept on Reddit Javascript Exploit Spreading Virally · · Score: 2, Insightful

    seriously. using the 'onhover' event is considered inventive enough to call it a proof of concept?

  22. Re:Public domain!!! on Google Offering Print Versions of Online Books · · Score: 3, Insightful

    It's a dumb way to make money, but google has enough of it. it is a good way to buy reputation capital as well as enforcing their company mission of making information accessible and not being evil.

    Companies definitely still use VMS.

    they keep dipping the shower heads in that stuff and it's magically shiny! maybe it'll kill bugs too?
