  1. Re:There's no security without physical security. on Microsoft Suggests Heating Homes With "Data Furnaces" · · Score: 1

    I think they mean physical hardware security, not physical location security.

  2. Re:Umm...yeah no shit. I could have told you this. on Can a Playground Be Too Safe? · · Score: 1

    Could you repeat that? I read it too fast.

  3. Re:Dont worry. Skype has been bought by Microsoft on Researcher Finds Dangerous Vulnerability In Skype · · Score: 0

    So when did the federal approval go through?

  4. Re:From Detroit? on TSA Announces Pilot of Trusted Traveler Program · · Score: 1

    That's hardly fair. Detroit is the largest airport in Michigan, I live a few hours away and still travel out of there.

  5. Re:So... on Open Radeon 3D Driver Runs At 60~70% of Proprietary Driver Speed · · Score: 1

    I wouldn't say that's fair, the Xbox 360's graphics work fine! (Which cellphones are starting to come towards in graphics complexity..)

  6. Re:Game? on Can Minecraft Change the Gaming Industry? · · Score: 1

    What gameplay elements are in there anyway?

    Your imagination. If you don't have one, then wait for the Adventure update.

  7. Re:CRANKY OLD MAN ASTRONAUT on Court to Decide If Man Can Keep His Moon Rock · · Score: 1

    Discovery channel camera crew vs History channel camera crew: FIGHT!

  8. Re:The real WTF... on New SMS Trojan Found In Android Markets · · Score: 3, Insightful

    So you can replace the default SMS application?

  9. Re:put it on github on Source Engine SDK To Be Free · · Score: 1

    Since they're removing the "must have a copy of a Source game" requirement from the SDK license, it could very well mean that we can finally redistribute the code. Because of that requirement, mods couldn't even be "visible source", but now that they can (presumably), there's no reason it can't be put on GitHub. Someone putting the code on there would be a big help to developers, actually, to already have a starting point in a code repository.

  10. Re:Hold down the shift key before inserting USB st on Yet Another "People Plug In Strange USB Sticks" Story · · Score: 0

    Or upgrade past XP.

  11. Re:Only one way to fix this on Yet Another "People Plug In Strange USB Sticks" Story · · Score: 1

    Most USB ports should have a fuse.

  12. Re:Entropy of passcode space on Passcodes Prove Predictable · · Score: 1

    1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 8, 7, 4.

  13. Re:I wonder... on The Enterprise Is Wrong, Not Mozilla · · Score: 1

    I haven't either. Chrome usually reports that it's using MORE memory than Firefox, for the exact same tabs.

  14. Re:More work for plugin developers on Mozilla Ships Firefox 5, Meets Rapid-Release Plan · · Score: 1

    I dunno, I maintain an addon, and AMO automatically ran some tests and verified that it is compatable with FF 6 already, and marked it as such for me. This was a couple weeks ago. It shouldn't happen as often as it used to.

  15. Re:Switch! on Verizon To Drop Unlimited Data Plans In Two Weeks · · Score: 1

    So.. Sprint.

  16. Re:What law says it's illegal? on $500,000 Worth of Bitcoins Stolen · · Score: 1

    Whoops, wrong illegal thing. That'll teach me not to read the GP.

  17. Re:What law says it's illegal? on $500,000 Worth of Bitcoins Stolen · · Score: 1

    Here's a list! http://www.ncsl.org/default.aspx?tabid=13494 (References to law in each state) The wallet file would be considered property, I think.

  18. Re:tineye.com on Google Launches Search By Image · · Score: 2

    I think you mean "higher resolution versions of images you already have"

  19. Re:A super computer.doing science? on Chinese Tianhe-1A Supercomputer Starts Churning Out the Science · · Score: 1

    They put behind the same door as the emergency shutdown.

  20. Re:He looks sick on Apple Plans New Spaceship-like Campus · · Score: 1

    Probably to lay weight (in a good way, given the way most companies behave.) The city council likely responds better to the CEO of a company talking to them directly instead of lawyers or interns or whatever.

  21. Re:So what on World IPv6 Day: Most-watched Tech Event Since Y2K · · Score: 1

    I'm guessing that they were testing the ipv6 on separate domains because if someone were using IPv6 and it were broken on their end, it might be hard to figure out what was wrong.

  22. Re:I sort of agree on Stallman: eBooks Are Attacking Our Freedoms · · Score: 1

    How can they estimate lost sales of individual items that aren't being bought?

  23. Re:Plain old pdf on Stallman: eBooks Are Attacking Our Freedoms · · Score: 1

    They haven't been updated because they don't work with new software - I have the old beta version of Kindle for PC specifically to strip the DRM from my books.

  24. Re:...and develop iOS on their iPads? on Could Apple Kill Off Mac OS X? · · Score: 1

    To the cloud, of course!

  25. Re:Don't be silly on UK Government Ditches Cloud Concept, Consolidates Data Centers · · Score: 1

    Sounds like most governments with two parties.
