@noamjamski: It does always seem to work that way doesn't it? Remember the post about the Canadian Penis Measurement Lie Detector fiasco? — [gizmodo.com]

I hear a lot of people complaining about these procedures but I don't hear a lot of suggestions for alternatives.

When I was in Tokyo earlier this year I constantly saw people using NFC with their phones to pay for stuff at corner stores and get into the train stations. It's awesome and I need it. NEED-Bot activated.

@cheeezwhiz: There are certainly limits to everything and there should be a logical approach to everything, I am one of the first people to fight for rights and limits. Company drug testing doesn't really have much to do here. I suppose you're picking a fight about rights. If someone chooses to do drugs, they are…

@ddillman: So what your saying is we shouldn't suspect anybody of trying to sneak a bomb onto a plane until they've been proven to have done it? Hmmmm, that seems less safe.

I don't see why this is such a big deal. If you don't want to do the body scan over some kind of safety concern, fine. The pat down is not really a big deal though. I've had to get the pat down going to concerts, shows, clubs etc. It's a standard thing. I'm sorry if you feel a little uncomfortable but for an…

I don't know why laptop manufacturers don't promote this as a selling point. "Hmmm, laptop or desktop? Well, a desktop is cool but the laptop will help me not have a baby which is really awesome."

@Baraka_Obama: Definitely true. It wasn't even worth it to save tickets or anything because the actual amount to get something would cost you $500 when the item only cost $20 at the store. Japan is way awesome.

@GizAtWork: Hell yeah! The new fat angry bird is pretty sweet.

@jurassictodd: Exactly what I mean. I always sold my books back at the end of the semester because I needed the money.

It would be great to just have to carry this around instead of a laptop and text books but the question I have is are the text books any cheaper for this thing? That makes a big difference in the decision. If it saves you some money every semester than I'm more likely to buy it and parents are more likely to buy the…

That's the first time I've heard the words "safe, controlled environment" and "fireballs with temperatures of over ten trillion degrees" in the same sentence. It just seems wrong, yet at the same time it feels so right. Ah, the feeling of impending doom.

You can't avoid it unless you live the life of a hermit and you probably can't hook up in order to populate the world unless you live in some sort of community. Catch-22 my friend. What to do?

@OreoExplosion: I feel like if you are a regular reader of Giz and a nerd, like myself, you should know this one. If someone didn't, I hope they feel ashamed unless they've gotten one before this one . . . which I have not.

@westsidegimpin: True story, didn't think about that I suppose. Knowing FAIL for me. But now I know, and of course that is half the battle.

Security is ultimately a personal responsibility. That is a fact. But what also is shocking to me is that I haven't seen anything about a response from browsers about fixing such a security flaw. They also have a responsibility to their users to fix this type of vulnerability.

@tineras: I definitely agree. I was thinking "Does my Froyo really look like this one on the left?" Nope. Because the one on the left sucks.

@FixMaster2K: If someone concentrated bacon my head might explode because I'd still take regular sized bites.

Is anybody thinking what I'm thinking?

@LombardoJoe: I concur. I really have been enjoying all of the App Deals of the Day posts though. They are extremely helpful and have turned me on to some excellent useful and fun applications. Giz ftw.
