If we can find evidence of life on Mars or a Moon in our solar system, that should increase the chances that Life exists all over the place in our Galaxy.
We used to have a BES server at work, but we finally had to ditch it! It was down more often than it was up, and the last time it was down for 2 weeks! RIM couldn't solve the problem, they wanted us to rebuild our Exchange Server, we said -to hell with you.
I find it hard to believe that because of high altitude, the food is going to taste bad, yet they can send food into space that astronauts say taste just fine. IMO, the reason the food tastes bad, is because the Air Lines are too damn cheap to provide good quality food!
My dad purchased his Samsung 55" LCD 3D TV with glasses for $2200. I purchased my Samsung 51" Plasma 3D TV w/ glasses in December for $599 at BestBuy. I always try to find the best deal, not the latest and greatest.
If the cave is not properly engineered, it can be a death trap. Just look at all the miners that die from collapsed tunnels. If you're living in a mountain, then you're going to be dealing with ground swells, and potential tunnel collapses.
I bet I could build an Amiga for far less and make everyone think it's an Amiga. I actually prefer the look and feel of the old hardware. Wish I could get my hands on an Amiga 2000 system real cheap.
I think you're right about this. I remember when my carrier (US Cellular) had some really great basic phones with tons of features, now you can't find those phones anymore. In-fact, I've asked US Cellular about using an LG Triton as a basic phone, and they told me I needed to purchase a data plan. But, when US Cellular was selling these a few years back, no data plan was needed then. It's another way to stick it to the consumers! Really pisses me off.
Creationism is something that only be taught to a 5 year old, because anyone old enough that doesn't believe in Santa Claus anymore will see right through the non-sense.
I don't understand how some people can be so brain dead when it comes to common sense. How can you compare Myth with Facts as an alternate solution to the answer? Whats the point in teaching Science if your going to turn Fact into Fiction, and Fiction into Fact. People must have their head screwed on wrong.
I'm sure if Nokia could make a good basic cell phone with a good camera, lot's of people would buy it. I know a lot of people who just want a good sturdy phone with features like, good camera, touchscreen, text keyboard, etc. All the basic phones I see are crap, and that's why people jump to Smart Phones. I know people who pay an extra $30 a month for an iPhone, just so they can have a descent camera on their phone.
Nokia should stop trying to compete in the Smart Phone market. It's already flooded with too many models and manufacturers. Nokia should go back to what they do best, and make low cost basic cell phones for those people not looking to pay for data plans. Most of the carriers have lots of Android models, but few good basic phones.
You can't compare the world today with any time in history. Humans never had the capability to destroy the whole world. We are as alien to those people in the past, as we are to a civilization thousands of light-years from here.
Linux has struggled to get the attention of the masses because we live in a Windows World. Microsoft has made its mark long ago, and that mark has stuck to everyone's mind. All that is changing because of Google's Android operating system. Android is basically Linux, and since it's so popular, people wouldn't have a problem using it as their desktop OS. With so many apps already available, it's seems like the perfect choice to replace Windows. Soon, there will be 3 contenders to the Desktop Market, Microsoft, Apple, and Google.

There could be a flaw to Intelligence, that once it reaches a certain level, it self destructs. May explain why its hard to find other aliens.
It would have to be a slow moving asteroid, and lasers will have no effect on comets.
Human intelligence is still in its infancy, and because we are so irrational, we will probably go extinct before anyone notices us.

I want access to all the X-Files!
What good is security without reliability. RIM has so many issues, not the least of which is their failing infrastructure, and poor support.

In order to cover creationism, you'd also need a major in Physics to explain how the creator existed for eternity.

only the toys have changed, over time.
Those new toys is what gives 1% of the population control over the other 99%.
The Government regards all of us as Lemmings. They want to control every aspect of our lives, and the NSA is just one tool to accomplish this.

Unless Apple labels their products as a Free Trade Goods, then I wouldn't trust anything they say. If it's made in China, chances are it's made by people that I would define as Slaves. http://www.innovationexcellence.com/blog/2012/02/08/fair-trade-electronics-responsible-innovation/
