I don't care at this point about VB or what ever she did/did not do. I love boingboing and as a directory of wonderful things I think it is totally permissible to change your mind about linking or posting to something.

I for one know that I've gone through and made posts private or friends only after thinking twice about it.

I applaud BB for letting us know they removed the content and also where to find it.

As for journalistic integrity this blog shows much more integrity than your average livejournal.

I just finished reading this book and it was awesome. It evolved pretty well, always had a realistic like feel to what could happen and was not predictable.

Heck, I started this right after I got home and I haven't even had dinner yet. I love a good story and this is one. I really like the literary universe this is set in. I think parts of it has good potential for short films and great tv series material.

How in the heck are we to determine how much "lithium content" the batteries have? I checked my new laptop's battery pack and it has nothing on it about how much lithium is in it.

It doesn't say whether or not this is individual or aggregate lithium content for all devices either. Not that I could see scanning it right away.

I foresee a lot of ticked off international travelers and business travelers who are forced to dispose of backup batteries for their laptops....

This is all probably fall out from the Dell "exploding laptop" stuff but really I just hate the TSA.

A soda purchased 10 feet from the scanners is not safe to bring through even though soda purchased on the other side was just x-rayed.
