    The article is misleading. The original finnish piece of news says the _use_ of unsecured wireless networks is going to be legalized. Having an unsecured home network has never bee…

    I've had good experiences with Futurlec ( http://futurlec.com/PCBService.shtml ). I believe the PCBs ship from Thailand so don't expect fast delivery (unless you pay for courier se…

    It will be interesting to see what comes out of Symbian^4. As the 10+ year old Symbian UI framework is tossed out of the window and replaced by a Qt graphicsview based new one it r…

    The Firefox Mobile runs ok on N900 which has RAM- and CPUwise very similar hardware to iPhones, but 2x more pixels to render. Why would someone want it instead of Safari? I'm sure …

    Yeah of course that's obvious, but is there or is there not a company rule that prohibits employees publicly commenting on company matters like the Adobe guy says? Edit: I just rea…

    Probably because console gaming had always been closed and the introduction of x360 didn't really make things any worse than they were. Also the game developers who would like to s…

    I've done quite a lot of uC and FPGA stuff already, but thanks for the suggestion. Assembling from a kit and developing own firmware for something like this http://monome.org/devic…

    Ask HN: How does a hacker have maximum fun with 500 euros?

    Recently I recieved an email from my boss that I'm about to receive a gift of 500€ ~= $675 (and no he doesn't work for our nigerian branch ;)). The thing is that because of taxatio…

    Is it totally out of the question that some people might type in bing.com or have it as their browser's start page? The 42% is MSFTs share of referring sites.
