Actually, most banks make you jump through more hoops than just "some idiot's username and password", when you want to use their software to make payments on your phone.

I personally had to have my card, a small code generating device that your bank will give you free, and my PIN, to then generate a challenge/response code from my card to allow the software access to my account.

Maybe you're referring to US banks though.. they seem to regard security as an annoying waste of money.

If you're ever in Italy in the summer, ask for a "caffe shakerato" , where they'll take your shot of espresso, a spoonful of sugar, and a lot of ice cubes and shake it like hell in a martini shaker, then pour it out through a strainer into a martini glass. It's like a cold glass full of the crema on top of your espresso, and it is even more awesome if you happen to add a shot of baileys to the ingredient list.

Comment Walls are stationary (Score 1) 36

Walls are stationary objects, other objects that horribly impact 28 GHz frequencies in performance ruining ways are raindrops, mist, tree leaves, and so on.

I guess these will be designed to work in fairly small cells, which would in theory reduce that sort of interference, but I'm not particularly convinced by that fluff piece.

No it isn't, no more than christiantity.

Seriously, meet a few muslems before you parrot lines off groups that have been looking for another demon to finance the MIC, and often had a hand in creating (Al Quaeda, orginally financed by the US to fight the commie threat.. etc).

95% of muslems want exactly what most 1st worlders want, a safe place to raise, feed and educate their children, and hopefully some opportunity for those children to do better.
