  1. Re:The most interesting thing about that article.. on Serious Security Bugs Found In Android Kernel · · Score: 2, Informative

    Huh? Dalvik is a Java-like virtual machine. Android is the API, UI and user tools, running on top of Linux.

  2. Re:Neat! on Geocities To Be Made Available As a 900GB Torrent · · Score: 1

    Oh, well, that sucks for him. Not everyone has that problem. Or are you just assuming?

  3. Re:I wonder why american scientists care on US Objects To the Kilogram · · Score: 1

    Apparently they care because they're selfish, if everyone else is so dumb?

    Bill for what?

  5. Re:Apple specific? on British Pizza Chain To Install Cones of Silence · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Oh, please. They're already called "iPizzeria".

  6. Re:Nah, it's easy on The Galaxy May Have Billions of Habitable Planets · · Score: 1

    How will we know the security status of the other side? I'm not jumping to nullsec!

  7. Re:ipad on The iPhone Serial Port Hack · · Score: 1

    Or any picture you save to the device from the browser/mail/etc.

  8. Re:Great Zip? on For Firefox 4, You'll Need To Wait Until 2011 · · Score: 1

    What? No, PDC was in Silver Spring, MD!

  9. Re:Anybody remember if... on For Firefox 4, You'll Need To Wait Until 2011 · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I think you meant plugins.

  10. Re:ipad on The iPhone Serial Port Hack · · Score: 3, Informative

    That's because it's exposed as a PTP (Picture Transfer Protocol) device over USB. All iPhone/iPod Touch/iPads do this.

  11. Re:Removing the human ... that's where the issue i on Aussie Kids Foil Finger Scanner With Gummi Bears · · Score: 1

    The call is coming from inside the school!

  12. Re:Next up... on Aussie Kids Foil Finger Scanner With Gummi Bears · · Score: 1

    Fortunately you can't lift a print off of one of those. Though if it's on your laptop there are probably plenty of fingerprints on it already.

  13. Re:2048 Mbit DS games on First Pictures of the (Fake?) PlayStation Phone · · Score: 1

    Yes, but I'm pointing out that nobody counts download size in megabits.

  14. Re:Transferring 8.5 GB at 5 GB per month on First Pictures of the (Fake?) PlayStation Phone · · Score: 1

    DS games are sized in megabits, so a 256Mbit cartridge is really 32 megabytes of memory.

  15. Re:I think ... on The Android Invasion Cometh; Is Resistance Futile? · · Score: 1

    And if I sit down in a group of 8 people, I'll see 6 Android devices, 1 iPhone, and a dumbphone. It happens consistently with me, too. Sample bias?

  16. Re:Firefox is good .... plus makes money on Why Mozilla Needs To Pick a New Fight · · Score: 1

    I could switch to another browser if any of them supported or had extensions nearly as extensive as what Firefox has available. If you compare the two systems, Chrome's add-on API is a joke. It's equivalent to Greasemonkey.

  17. Re:Aero on Ubuntu Moves Away From GNOME · · Score: 1

    Darth who? Darth Maul?

  18. Re:What about "normal-sized" HD screens? on The World's Smallest Full HD Display · · Score: 1

    Marketing, or something like that. It's also near impossible to find a 15" laptop with dedicated graphics at your normal retail store (Best Buy, Walmart, whatnot)

  19. Re:devide by zero error on Who Invented the Linux-Based Wireless Router? · · Score: 1

    The same thing as math, apparently.

  20. Re:Bible.com? on Bible.com Investor Sues Company For Lack Of Profit · · Score: 1

    Why are you amused it's a .com if it has shareholders?

    On a side note, an .edu requires it to be an accredited school. I do not think a bible qualifies as a college.

  21. Re: Cynics unite! on Heroic Engineer Crashes Own Vehicle To Save a Life · · Score: 1

    Also the entire scene would take about 5 minutes instead of the ~10 seconds or so they probably were from the light.

  22. Re:ipad with a keyboard on Early Review of 11" Macbook Air · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Not for long, the way things are going.

  23. Re:Fuck yes! on Pirate Parties Plan To Shoot Site Into Orbit · · Score: 1

    Or Terminator on them, really. (And it's 'cue' not 'que')

  24. Re:AdBlock on Google Rolls Out Chrome 7 · · Score: 1

    Okay, well, I know that it didn't used to when extensions were first introduced, but obviously it wasn't the only issue.

  25. Re:AdBlock on Google Rolls Out Chrome 7 · · Score: 5, Informative

    It's Chrome's fault because scripts can't run before page content is loaded.
