So it's reasonably likely those of us who live in Washington state will see a drier and somewhat milder than usual winter.

California, on the other hand, will get hosed - but I suspect they'll be happy about it.

I'm a Comcast customer and occasionally a Tor user. I've never had an issue, nor have I ever been contacted by Comcast about it.

This story smells made up.

I take it all the world's real problems got solved over the past few days? I must've missed it. I would've expected CNN to report on it...

Seriously, get a grip.

That's the thing. This initiative probably won't help track down hard core terrorists or most pedophiles, unless they're also complete idiots. But that 15-year-old that just grabbed a copy of Kung Fu Panda off the Pirate Bay is screwed for life.

"I think I'm going to like History."

Man, you Red Sox fans are too much!

This argument has been around at least since the time of Socrates.

Especially the potty tentacle.

Many robots have arms - the OS needs to be able to control their processes.

The people who own the phone that does better on the benchmarks, that's who.

Munich may be looking to pick up a bunch of Windows licenses on the cheap...

I'll believe it when I actually see it. What I really expect to see is the following - six different products named like this:

- Windows
- Windows
- Windows
- Windows
- Windows
- Windows

But "Windows" only lets you run three programs at once. If you want more, you'll need to buy an upgrade to "Windows" - but that won't join an AD domain. Therefore office workers will want to purchase Windows, which can participate in AD. However if you want all the bells and whistles, the one you'll want to buy is Windows.

That's all clear, right?

Given the exploit requires the installation of a jailbreak, it's not actually going to work unless you already have the user's security code - the device needs to be unlocked in order to install the jailbreak.

I do think Apple was a bit disingenuous regarding the "bad passwords" used by celebrities, given the iBrute tool apparently was able to keep trying different passwords against Find My iPhone without any sort of delay - a shortcoming Apple apparently fixed a few days back.

For this upcoming Super Bowl, the big halftime event is going to be a heavily choreographed number with all of the participating players dancing around, clicking their Surface keyboards onto and off of the devices.

Such as when a live-mic'ed coach on the sideline picks up one of the Surface tablets, mutters an expletive, and says "why is this f*cking iPad so f*ckin' heavy?"
