It is sobering to realize there are some things I'll never understand. But it's OK. Ignorance let's us have more fun speculating. I was wondering, are two entangled particles actually the same particle, where one or both "took a time mac

Unlimited should disappear, it's a lie and it prevents honest comparisons of internet providers. If Verizon set a limit of 5 TB per month for residential customers, I think very few people would be complaining. They won't do it, because i

I wondered if the payback a political move; something to make the U.S. government look good after the problems with Solyndra and Fisker Automotive. Mentioning the other auto companies doesn't sound like an attempt to make the government lo

The article brought up the point that Tesla owns all of the service centers. I don't care if Tesla owns all the dealers, but having a monopoly on Tesla repair would be bad for consumers. If the process for becoming a "Tesla mechanic" allo

I've heard some reports of phones getting hacked. I guess it's a question of which one is easier to secure.

The police in USA certainly look the other way when a bank in Ukraine is robbed. I think even if I called and reported an in-progress bank robbery in Ukraine, they would tell me it's not their jurisdiction.

This only worked because it was a commodity that could be resold without much extra expense, and the cartel wasn't willing to sell at a loss everywhere. Great history lesson!

Is there a person or business that does not exchange US Dollars for goods/services? Any reasonable person would understand it to mean exchanging for foreign currency. Mt.Gox does not transmit dollars (or euros, etc) from one person to ano

Back in May 2011, was Bitcoin really a currency? How should a dealer of World of Warcraft gold answer these questions?

There's some information here. There was a policy sent out for what information to keep from cell phones, to all US Attorneys and Assistant US Attorneys, and it's 15 pages long. It would have been nice if they'd included a date.

Wouldn't this cause inflation? The price of food, shelter, and basic needs is determined by peoples' ability to pay. I'd expect the price to rise until a percentage of people were unable to pay, again.

Maybe Alberto Gonzalez never bothered to send the letter. The scary thing is, how would we ever know that the government is respecting the security of our privacy, if they have to power to ignore it?

Customers should be the ones punishing AT&T. The government could do a better job advertising the security failures to potential customers, rather than pursuing legal action for mediocre fines.

Does the supreme court ruling care whether Roundup was used? All I saw was that "copying" the seeds was not allowed, because they are patented.

The key word is "everyone". "Everyone" will not be happy about it, but I expect 90% of us will be. Truck drivers might be the hardest hit, but I thought they're still needed to inspect what's being picked up/dropped off, and make sure it's

If the ATM is verifying that the face belongs to an account holder, there's little worry of someone unauthorized accessing it. Use two cameras to get a real 3D biometric, they'd need a lifelike model of your head to access your account.

He's suing them for "unfair competition", because none of them have an MTA license, yet are still operating. As far as I can tell! http://www.leginfo.ca.gov/cgi-bin/displaycode?section=bpc&#3...

The anti-wiretapping laws are needed to prevent non-government entities from violating our security. The Fourth Amendment already clarifies that government must not violate the security of ourselves and our communications (papers), without

Why even have an exception? Surely public safety is more important than trying to add a confession to all of the other evidence. The exception seems like something that could be abused in other cases. I'd go further, and say that no state

Nah, you associate the credit card after making the account. I'd created an account a couple weeks ago, but didn't want to enter my credit card until I was actually going to use it. Cancellation is done over email, and I haven't gotten any
