  1. easy solution on LinkedIn Password Hashes Leaked Online · · Score: 1

    Sign in, change passwd, sign out. Now only 6,458,019 valid hashes, and likely much less.

  2. As Yogi Berra would have said on LinkedIn Password Hashes Leaked Online · · Score: 2

    Link me out

    { Actual quote: Include me out }

  3. Re:What's the problem with building self-sustainin on Neil Armstrong Gives Rare Interview · · Score: 1

    Plus, once we have moon base workers on a regular payroll with an ATM and a McSpacelys, we will finally be literally 'spending money in space'.

  4. Re:Exuberance on Yahoo Includes Private Key In Source File For Axis Chrome Extension · · Score: 1

    Maybe, but I'm sure the package maintainer at yahoo! definitely had an 'oh shit!' moment.

  5. Re:Too late suckers! on Russia To Establish Bases On the Moon · · Score: 3, Funny

    that why the USA needs to race back to the moon and build a fort around it maned by space marines.

  6. Re:Empty posturing on Russia To Establish Bases On the Moon · · Score: 1

    Indeed - the moon would be useful for more capitalist uses, like advertising. Some widespread areas of pigmentation and it'd make a swell Pepsi logo.

  7. baking soda volcano on Maryland Teen Wins World's Largest Science Fair · · Score: 1

    Meanwhile, here are some of the approximately 6,999,999 losers.

  8. DIY on Modeling People and Places With Internet Photo Collections · · Score: 2

    Or just take a bunch of photos yourself and upload them to Autodesk's 123d catch and get a 3d model back. It'll stitch together a scene and make a mesh (or a mess, depending on your photo quality) of it.

  9. any video? on Heathkit Educational Systems Closes Shop For Good · · Score: 1

    There should at least be a sad video of someone walking down an empty, echoing corridor, under a sign that says 'Heathkit - Since 1926', turn and look back, sigh, flick off a light switch and close the door with a boom.

  10. gladiators on MA Hackerspace Building Rideable Hexapod · · Score: 1

    Someday we hope to see mechwarrier style contests for real.

  11. when genius failed on The Math Formula That Lead To the Financial Crash · · Score: 1

    Great book about a massive hedge fund crash in the 90's: The Rise and Fall of Long Term Capital Management

  12. Re:Go alternate ... on Microsoft Patches Major Hotmail 0-day Flaw After Widespread Exploitation · · Score: 1

    Total coincidence, but I saw this ancient B&W episode of Robin Hood yesterday where he did hack a carrier pigeon. The sheriff was going to use pigeons to carry some pearls to his place, but Robin switch birds with Maid Marion's and took them elsewhere!

  13. Re:Creepier on Berners-Lee: You've Got Our Data, Show Restraint · · Score: 2

    Ah, that answers my question, who's going to track the trackers?

  14. Re:Premature Article AGAIN!! on IBM Creates 'Breathing' High-Density Lithium-Air Battery · · Score: 1

    By that time, they'll not only be electric but can also fly.

  15. free tibet on India Test Fires Long-Range, Nuke-Capable Missile · · Score: 1, Insightful

    I watch China tv on free satellite once in a while, CCTV4 English, and find it amusing when they refer to the 'Liberation of Tibet' - Liberation? From What? The iron fisted oppressive dictatorial rule of the Dalai Lama ???

  16. even more savings on Power-Saving Web Pages: Real Or Myth? · · Score: 0

    s/not insignificant/significant/
    will save another few picowatts drawing 6 redundant characters.

  17. Re:just to preempt all of the idiots on Internet Responds To Racist Article, Gets Author Fired · · Score: 1

    That's because it's not intolerance or non- that's the issue but of what. People do that all the time, give values to things like 'hate' or 'addiction' - some things SHOULD be hated, and I'm well addicted to oxygen and dihydrogen-monoxide. It's not 'addiction' that's good or bad, it's whether it harms your health or not. Some folks think it's good for schools to have zero tolerance of drugs and guns (but not money!), but a high tolerance of diverse mix of races and backgrounds. So that's not a paradox at all.

  18. The cache on Spaceman-Turned-Politician Can Call Himself 'Astronaut' On Ballot · · Score: 1

    I remember the time Space Head Dan Quayle referred to someone as a 'Fellow Astronaut'.

  19. Just as I though on Wind Map of US Will Blow You Away · · Score: 2

    Big suction holes west of Dallas and Philadelphia.

  20. Re:Sure like to see some info about efficiency... on Generating Alcohol Fuels From Electrical Current and CO2 · · Score: 3, Funny

    I'm guessing this wouldn't be useful in a regenerative-braking regime

    I donno, every time you hit the breaks, you get a little bit of candy?

  21. Re:Yeah yeah on Climate Change To Drive Weather Disasters, Say UN Experts · · Score: 1

    Climate has changed before - those with the brains to adapt survive, those dinosaurs who can't will die off. Climate change drives evolution.
    I, for one, welcome our new carboniferous age.

  22. Beard? on Go Version 1 Released · · Score: 2

    Do the developers of GO have beards?

  23. Would have made an awesome coin crusher on Record-Setting 100+ T Magnetic Field Achieved At Los Alamos · · Score: 1

    Like this one but much more so.

  24. That's ok on Judge Rules Pi-Based Music Is Non-Copyrightable · · Score: 1

    I still own the copyright on any works based on sqrt(2), phi, e, and my favorite i, 'The Imaginary Symphony'.

  25. Perfect timing on Iran War Clock Set At Ten Minutes To Midnight · · Score: 3, Funny

    Just in time for daylight savings time, after which the clock will be 10 minutes until 1AM, crisis averted.
