  1. Drunk fleas? on Bearded Drinkers Lose Guinness · · Score: 2

    I can just picture a group of fleas/mites getting drunk on Guinness ;)

  2. They're doing this for a reason... on The Feds' Ramsey Electronics Raid Blow by Blow · · Score: 1

    ...which is valid. I'm sure we're going to hear people screaming about they're freedom, but 'bugs' can also take away this freedom by being supplied and used by just about anyone who can use a soldering iron who can then place it where they believe a conversation will occur. But, this does not condone the way they are going about it. Surely there are better ways, such as finding the people who are actually using them to snoop, while not removing their educational element.

    I for one found those little things great fun to build and tune.

  3. Which is most important? on Linux Handwriting Recognition · · Score: 1
    Now I'm curious, what matters more to people, handwriting or voice recognition?

    Well, to me it would be which is the most efficient. I know I can certainly type faster than I can write, so I would choose typing over handwriting.

    Voice recognition would me much more usefull in situations where the hands are needed to control delicate things that only the trained motor skills of a human could do the job (fighter pilot, surgeon) to control things such as providing the right tool or weapons control.

    So I would rank the three options in this order:

    1. Voice
    2. Typing
    3. Handwriting

    However I have left one option out, thought control (You know what I mean). The reason I left this out is because I think it is such a long way of. Sure we can train rats to think about pulling levers, but it is a long way before we can create machines that could understand the brain patters. It must be even more complex than voice recognition...
