Just how dangerous is this flaw? Are we talking about holing an antenna during a thunderstorm dangerous, or giving my kid a loaded gun as a toy dangerous, or what?
Came here to post this. I've always agreed with Einstein on this one. I'm even considering building a device to link my mind directly into a computer so I can look stuff up. One day computers might be far more reliable than meat memory, so why not?
There's always a slight hint of jealousy when things like this come out. Either I had a similar idea and no time to work on it, or I kick myself for not coming up with the idea myself. c'est la vie
So the person who ran over the cyclist is now in prison and can't tell people to watch out for bicycles. When he gets out he'll be a poor felon, why should anyone listen to what he has to say?
Nah, you don't need anything this complex. You can hack in from your home network with nothing special and even leave your email address and contact information. As long as you don't brag about what you did, they have no way of tracking you. Trust me on this. There's nothing to be worried about... nothing to worry about.... worry about... worry...
I do remember the days of real-time text. I don't want it back. I make too many typos and other such mistakes. I'd rather not let others watch me type.
I agree. In fact, I'm wondering how much this sort of thing costs and how light it is. It might be worth looking into taking it on camping trips through the desert.

Astronomers using the Hubble Space Telescope discovered a fourth moon orbiting the icy rocky thing we call Pluto.
There... FTFY :D
No, no it isn't.
How would one read the output of a quantum computer if they quantum state changes upon observation? Wouldn't it just spit out random numbers?

Just curious is all.

Now imagine this same experiment being done for for several years instead of days and with no one to step in when things get out of hand.
Now imagine if the guards were told the prisoners were evil terrorists.
Is it really that necessary? Really?
I blame our next president.
Have they figured out exactly why bee population is dwindling? It seems like they are just fixing the symptoms instead of the actual problem.

The easier you make it for people to develop on your platform, the better it will be.
Unless you're apple, then you can get away with anything it seems.
I am now in the future.
If snails can survive, so can bombs, or even terrorists. The TSA should focus their time on scanning birds.
It's a dog-eat-dog world out there.

phones will be installed in robotic floating orbs called Spheres
Can they use this same technique to realize we don't need all these body scanners in the airports, etc.?
Somehow I get the feeling a full release of the source code still wouldn't be enough to satiate the nerdy masses.
Oh! Can you put me on the line with 1994? I need to talk to them about some things.
On a side note, who around here calls the future?

If they win, I'm going to start using and patent and trademark the letter e. Then sue anyone who uses it.
Way

Good. That means the people who used to sit on phones all day can now go and do something productive and help increase the wealth of the nation.
