  1. Nice economic model! on Robotic Deer to Fight Illegal Hunting · · Score: 1

    ;-) Well the robot costs the state 2000$ and the fine for shooting one is 1200$ (2400$ if you do it at night). So unless all these robots are being shot at night then the state looses 800$ everytime one is damaged? Or is their also a fine for destroying public property that makes it a good cash grab? Personnaly I think I could make a buck charging people to shoot at the fake deer and then enjoy the show!

  2. Re:Well maybe but on Apple Closes iSight Security Hole · · Score: 1

    Hmm guess mine is defective, but if that little hole next to the lens is it, I don't think I would be looking at it while surfing the net as it is set pretty high on the frame and it is realy small. Dosen't change the fact that by the time I noticed it,it ould be too late and this exploit isin't just for isight. Thx for the tip though I'll look into the non responsive LED.

  3. Well maybe but on Apple Closes iSight Security Hole · · Score: 1

    the problem is bigger than that. I have a macbook wich has an integrated camera on it, and the exploit works with it. This cam has no lead light indicating use and no lens cap, so as long as it stays on my desk my privacy can be violated. My browser did crash when I hit the back button but that could be anything, most people wouden't be alarmed by it and even if they wer, well it would be to late. Interesting points: Well take a look at this slashdot story from yesterday about a face recognition and search engine software http://yro.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=06/12/19/19 23259. This exploit could prove pretty usefull to people using the new product. I pitty all those girls in porn picts that will be exposed to all their friends and familly members when they use this new service. It's a java and quicktime exploit so it's not eclusive to the mac platform.
