Yeah it was a bit unfair of me to say he's salty cause people don't think it was aliens. It's like you said, the fact that people won't even accept the possibility of it being aliens is what is upsetting him. The sad thing is that because UFOs and aliens have become crackpot conspiracy topics, the more he talks about it being possibly alien, the more people will think he is crazy even though his hypothesis is as valid as any other. But kudos to him for sticking to his hypothesis. Hopefully he'll be able to go "I told you so" and rub it in people's faces one day. If we're all busy dying from alien blaster fire it might not be the best time, but hey, being right while Mars Attacks is still being right :)

that people don't want to just agree this was aliens. I'm all for it being aliens. In fact I hope it was and they either invade (soon please) or just come and visit. We need some crazy shit to shake things up here on Earth. But with our very limited knowledge of the universe this might just be a common type of asteroid or something we've not encountered before.

Submission + - Apple iPhone 5S TouchID broken (paritynews.com)

hypnosec writes: Chaos Computer Club has claimed that they have managed to break Apple's TouchID using everyday material and methods available on the web. Explaining their method on their website, the CCC hackers have claimed that all they did was photograph a fingerprint from a glass surface, ramped up the resolution of the photographed fingerprint, inverted and printed it using thick toner settings, smeared pink latex milk or white woodglue onto the pattern, lifted the latex sheet, moistened it a little and then placed it on the iPhone 5S’ fingerprint sensor to unlock the phone.
