  1. One major gothcha! on Biometric Tech Uses Sound To Distinguish Ear Cavity Shape · · Score: 1

    Earwax! Seems like that will change the pattern.

  2. Since Sen. Richard Burr is clearly an expert on this (NOT). Apple should just hire him to do the work for the FBI. 1) Apple can now claim they have put an expert on the job. 2) Judge/FBI can't complain 3) The phone won't get cracked. Win/Win/Win :-)

  3. Archival grade CD/DVD on Ask Slashdot: Best Medium For Personal Archive? · · Score: 2

    If you search you'll find there are "Archival Grade" CD-Rs and DVD-Rs. Read the specs, but some are rated at 100-300 year retention life.

  4. Cheap and Simple: X10 on Ask Slashdot: Options For Cheap Home Automation? · · Score: 1

    If you want cheap and simple, you could look at X10 and some program to control it like Homeseer. Homeseer can provide the web access and sequencing. X10 isn't the most reliable when spread all over the house and across both phases, but all contained in a limited number of feeds from the same phase of the fusebox, it's not bad. Also, it's not all that fast, but if you need nothing to react faster than around 5 seconds, it's fine.
