  5. every second person in the world? on Wi-Fi Piggybacking Widespread · · Score: 1

    "54 percent of computer users have admitted breaking the law, by using someone else's wireless internet access without permission." Thus what Sophos is telling us, that every second person in the world who uses a computer knows how to do this? This is a very stupid globalisation from a handfull (560) of people they have tested. Further Sophos does not provide the NORM data (i.e. age, technical abilities, degrees etc) of the group tested. Therefor the survey is useless. Thus get real, Sophos and learn how to do proper data sampling before you go around and tell everyone what YOU have found.

  6. so what? on Mozilla Reponds - We Call the Shots, Not Google. · · Score: 1

    Even if google is in partial control of Mozilla, so what? you cannot compete against M$ without some BIG $dollars ... having google support mozilla is good!

  9. ... and the environment??? on IPv4 Unallocated Addresses Exhausted by 2010 · · Score: 2, Insightful
    Considering the environmental problems we already have we do not need another "y2k thingo" for IP addresses, where people tell you that you HAVE TO buy
    • a new mobile phone for each person
    • a new computer
    • a new [xbox|ps2|ps3|nintendo]
    • a new modem
    • a new ANYTHING that contains a network interface (ip4 address)
    because its more economical viable to buy some new than to fix something we already have and all the old stuff (which is in perfect working order) ends up on a rubbish dump.

    ... off course until we realize that the temperature graph is exponential, ouch!
  10. Re:Simplify the need on The Best Graphing Calculator on the Market? · · Score: 1

    I have to agree with you, better even if the calculator is solar powered (no batteries, hence nice to the environment) and has all the basic math stuff. I learned Math at highschool the "hard way" only using simple calculators. Although I dont use math that often today (other than simple stuff) I still remember everything cause *I* did it, not some fancy calculator ... AND ... I walked away from a Uni Math course with an HD+!
