Commented on Toy truck craps out domino runs
I love it. I bet I could graft a pinata onto it so it was festive and crapped a rainbow. Of course it would have to be a unicorn: http://www.amazon.com/Aztec-Imports-PF107-Unicorn-Pinata/dp/B0013WF6LC...

Commented on 100-word fiction competition — win an HP MediaSmart EX495
Locazee reeled in the message torpedo into the cargo bay. It was a strange one so to be safe he set two fixer bots to analyze it. Can't be too careful since a hasty smuggler is a deader. The bots...

Commented on iPhone game dev accused of stealing players' phone numbers (UPDATED)
All the Storm8 game applications use your phone number every time you run the application. At least the older versions do. I haven't checked all the most recent versions. I don't think it uploads it when you first install the...

Commented on iPhone game dev accused of stealing players' phone numbers (UPDATED)
But if Apple had merely tested it through a web debugging proxy they would have seen that the second or third thing it communicates to Storm8 is your phone number. Each Storm8 "application" has had many versions approved by Apple...

Commented on Iraq: Open Thread, "Bloody Sunday"
Oceania has always been at war with East Asia... 1984 should not be a guidebook about media and government but it seems to be. We have an artificial sense of urgency where what happens to some random hollywood ditz is...

Commented on Saturday Morning Science Experiment: Pachyderm Dental Care
