  1. SOPA Protests - Helping CSRs everywhere on Wikipedia Still Set For Full Blackout Wednesday · · Score: 1

    Just another excuse my ISP will make when I call them up to see why my internet is down -- "it's a protest against SOPA." Sounds funny but the chances of this actually happening are not as slim as one would like them to be.

  2. What if it doesn't work? on Wikipedia Still Set For Full Blackout Wednesday · · Score: 1

    What's the last resort if these protests ultimately prove fruitless? Can anyone see the likes of Google and Wikipedia moving their businesses abroad?

  3. Re:I agree on Study Shows "Secret Questions" Are Too Easily Guessed · · Score: 1

    If the attacker was sufficiently motivated, I'm sure he could get someone's mother's maiden name -- not the toughest 'encryption', is it? After all, we won't want to be living in a world where hackers keep directories of peoples' maiden mother names, would we!

  4. Re:That's one heck of a feedback loop... on An Open Source Coffee Machine · · Score: 1

    I can see someone finding a causal link to free energy in this.

  5. Eh? on Should Apple Open Source the iPhone? · · Score: 1

    "Without open source, Apple will find itself in the same position as today's Microsoft in seven years." Of course the only difference would that Apple would actually 'know what they're doing' and have a vision as such. Other than that 'small' detail, I can't think of (m)any rationally run corporations who wouldn't swap their market share for Microsoft's in a heartbeat.

  6. 1173K? on Carbon Dioxide and Water Found On Exoplanet · · Score: 1

    I believe I speak for everyone when I quote a certain Ms. Hilton on this one: "That's hot!"

  7. A sad day. on The PlayStation 3 Launches In the U.S. · · Score: 5, Funny

    We gather here today to mourn the tragic death of Common Sense . . .

  8. Thousands, for hours, in the cold? on Playstation 3 Sells Out At Japanese Launch · · Score: 1

    Electronics stores in Japan have sold out of PlayStation 3 consoles after thousands of gamers queued for hours in the cold to buy them.

    I'll wait. Thanks.

  9. Slow on 1" Hard Drives in Cellphones on the Rise · · Score: 1

    With a 10 gb hard drive, it would take absolute light years to restart/turn on the phone.
