Of the people I've met that claim to have sensitive noses, they seem to usually complain about artificial scents, like too much cologne, "deodorant" or after shave. The only times I've heard them complain about smelly BO was when everyone e

I think you make a very important point. Even if the universe was infinitely large, there might be a point where past that the conditions can't exist that would allow something like our planet to function. For infinity to grant you duplicat

Who said it was a crime? Just that a company might not want to give away it's source code because they don't want to make it easier for another company to make knock offs. This has been a big issue for companies dealing with China, you sell

I get that augmented reality needs to be portable for most applications, I'm not so sure VR needs portable CPU power. Other than that I agree with you.

No reason to make anything easier for them than you legally have to. Plus the issue here isn't the government wanting anything from you. The problem is when you have no legal issues with the government but unfortunately the cloud provider y

I would agree, except that the crazy rules that favor the large companies are pretty much written by the large companies aren't they? Its cool that they're just following the rules in a way that makes the most sense for them, but not that t

Though to grab this info with ajax it doesn't have to fire off an event when the auto-complete changes it. It could just check every second itself if the form changed and if so send off the info.

Yes you can't break into government buildings to show they are insecure, but you could buy the same kind of door as they have, and show how insecure it is. I think this is how a lot of the e-voting machine hacks are done.

I think it would be really hard to secure that as far as an MMO goes, not that there aren't a few tricks that might be worth trying. (Like having a player's CPU emulated on several different peers and comparing the output to find errors or

Letting the clients handle the simulation would have a lot of problems for a MMO. Extra problems if you were doing the work for other players as well. I think part of the point of it being a special emulated CPU set at a certain speed is to

I think NoScript's clickjacking protection works even if the site is whitelisted or you have javascript turned on for all sites, it still checks for XSS type behavior.

I agree with you, but the fact that you have to root your phone and only a few of the handsets seem work well with the open source builds limits how open it can be. Not saying this is google's fault.

There is plenty of evidence that running is good for your knees as long as you aren't making an injury worse. Also the only way to have a six pack is have low body fat, one of the many ways to achieve that is through running. I don't think
