  1. SHE'S A BITCH! on Nitrogen Fixing Bacteria That Can Colonize Most Plants Discovered · · Score: 1
  2. Martyrdom is the answer? on Moscow Has Eyes On WikiLeaks, Too · · Score: 1

    Yeah, just make the guy a martyr and piss off the entire hacking community into taking up his cause. Best thing all governments could do is just be ALOT more transparent, duh. Too much grief going on between us earthlings with our alien overlords on the way.

  3. I really hope Dell Execs read this message on Where Does Dell Go After Losing 3Par? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Dear Dell shitbags: Optiplex GX270 fiasco you went to great lengths to hide which you're finally getting sued for. Enough Said.

  4. Fool me twice.... on McAfee Kills SVCHost.exe, Sets Off Reboot Loops For Win XP, Win 2000 · · Score: 1

    Seems not too long ago McAfee was deleting important files....and people kept using it. Here we go again. Can I get a lol?

  5. Holy LOL incredulous hypocrisy batman on Steve Jobs Recommends Android For Fans of Porn · · Score: 1

    sung to the tune of Sponge Bob Square Pants: Who lives in a glass house and has the name Steve? Unpleasant, ironic and Nazi is he? If stifling of choice is something you wish, Then act like a dick and sue like a bitch! Steve says Droid does Steve says Droid does Steve says Droid does Steve sayyyyys Droid doooooes! (porn)

  6. Re:Running Demos on Quake 3 For Android · · Score: 1

    I've tried OSP with no luck (author already stated no mod support just yet), but am having a hard time finding any vanilla 1.32c demos thus far. If anyone finds them I'll certainly test and report back!

  7. Running Demos on Quake 3 For Android · · Score: 1

    I've been unable to get any demos to work which were recorded on the 1.32c exe, obviously because this is based off ioq3. If anyone cares to record or get vanilla demos for showcase purposes I'm all ears. OSP/mods appears to run, but being able to play match demos to show off gameplay would be the BOMB. Also, id software should REALLY take notice here and release a spectator-only client for QuakeLive which runs on Adroid ;-)

  8. Consider using Google Pack (w updater) on Adobe Download Manager Installing Software Without Consent · · Score: 1

    http://pack.google.com/ This is too cool for school - by selecting the programs you want through Google Pack, a special exe will be created for download which installs these programs and the google updater which runs as a scheduled task. Easy button FTW.

  9. Tons more complaints this time on IOC Claims Olympian Lindsey Vonn's Name As Intellectual Property · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Just add this to the MASSIVE list of failures at this Winter Olympics, namely: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/35464927/ns/world_news-vancouver_winter_olympics/

  10. Easily fixed! on Interstellar Hydrogen Prevents Light-Speed Travel? · · Score: 1

    How about a giant windshield wiper wiping slightly faster than the speed of light? amirite? amirite?

  12. gonna have to pass on Stay Off the Grid, Win $10,000 · · Score: 1, Troll

    As capable as I am at winning this challenge, I'll have to spectate from behind dual LCD panels, as my job will not permit (and 10k isnt much more than the salary I'd make in the same time period). Good luck to all who have the means to slack for 30+ days!

  13. Here we go again on Dell Defect Turning 2.2GHz CPU Into 100MHz CPU? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    In my 15+ year history of dealing with Dell, getting them to admit fault is near impossible. I've been through quite a few such incidents and I have to say, I may never forgive Dell for the Optiplex GX270 SFF. If they would just be a responsible company and fix their mistakes openly I might consider doing business with them again some day.

  14. Re:http://securitycartoon.com/ on Impressing Security Upon End-Users Visually? · · Score: 1

    Best one yet! Many Thanks!

    Thanks! though not exactly what I had in mind, the first visual example posted.

    The revolution will begin on /. therefore it will not be televised.

  18. Re:why ignore common sense? on Wind Farms Can Interfere With Doppler Radar · · Score: 1

    So you'd deny that lightning or warm fronts produce heat? In any case, IR isn't really the onus so much as night vision. Seeing a funnel cloud in the distance can be priceless, even while using night vision with a suitable wide-angle lens.

  19. Re:why ignore common sense? on Wind Farms Can Interfere With Doppler Radar · · Score: 1

    many modern PTZ cams have both infrared and night vision.

  20. Re:why ignore common sense? on Wind Farms Can Interfere With Doppler Radar · · Score: 1

    Not if it's the same people watching the radar and looking at the cams only during potential storm scenarios.

  21. why ignore common sense? on Wind Farms Can Interfere With Doppler Radar · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Simple solution - pan/tilt/zoom IP-based cameras placed within each wind farm where we can actually SEE if there's an oncoming tornado, etc. Very small investment considering the cost of the actual wind farm itself. Welcome to the new millenium.

  23. Re:'computers' hacked .. on Break-In Compromises 160k Medical Records At UC Berkeley · · Score: 1, Troll

    I was modded as flamebait for actually asking this earlier in the discussion. Heaven forbid we actually know details.

    oh classic, modded as flamebait for asking a legit question which might give some insight into the actual security situation.
