The quadcopter they showed with the eagle is a Spyrit Max FPV T2M, a toy level 230 size (measured in mm diagonally from motor-motor), and weighs less than 600g when it has the prop guards & camera on board (which it didn't at the time), yet the 360 sized quads (like the DJI Phantom) weigh around a 1000g and get heavier when you add things a camera & 3 axis gimbal, plus they have brushless motors that are far more powerful than the brushed motors of the Spyrit.
Clickbaiters suck balls. It appears they used "Logic Bombs" because that phrase conjures up a more interesting picture of what happened than "Greedy Idiot Gamers Self Banned By Trojans."
We got our first screenings here in the UK 15 hours ago, of which I attended.
Thoroughly enjoyed it, will probably go back and watch it again but in a better theater with bigger seats and actual legroom, oh and in 3D cos the person I went with doesn't like 3D in cinemas but I do.
Imagine the fun you could have with a fake a GPS signal - When your employer asks why you fly to the north pole every night at 3000mph you can tell him you're moonlighting for Santa.
Perhaps they're getting their foot in the door regarding DNA identification, if (when?) they managed to get their mitts on a tiny device that can sequence DNA from breath/spit etc., they'll only need to combine that with their DNA database they've been collecting for years to create a commodity worth billions they'll be able to oursource to security companies for a tidy profit.
Since installing AdAway on my Android devices it has eliminated most of the banner adverts in apps. I wonder how the researchers results would stack up after installing AdAway.
The main reason I dislike using Chrome on a PC unless I have to is that the scroll speed when using the mouse wheel, or more likely the scroll slider on a laptop touchpad, makes the page zip up/down so fast it's really difficult to have any sort of fine control over where on the page you scroll to.
Why the fuck they changed that I have no idea, I tried a scroll plugin to get the scroll speed back to the norm (ie FireFox) but no matter how I tinkered with the settings I never got it to feel comfortable.
So it's FireFox all the way with me.
The iOS keyboard character case thing isn't just restricted to their phones you ignorant twat, my portable devices are Android and I only discovered the keyboard case thing when I had to use an iPad to browse the web one time.
It left me scratching my head as to why someone would do such a ridiculous thing where the only indication that you were typing in uppercase was the shift key highlighted a different colour.
My guess is that they wanted the keyboard to look like a traditional keyboard with the non-changing keys because it's familiar to users, but they completly ignored the fact that it's a touchscreen keyboard which allows you to dynamically change the layout at will to suit the situation in hand.
I still think it's a fucking stupid idea when virtually all Androids keyboards change their case to signify what letters will actually appear when you type.
If I had his money I'd be quickly scrambling to work out how to evade all authories on the entire planet, because I assume he'd want it back by any means?
Although the prices are way OTT to buy from on a regular basis they can be useful when you need something fast. I went into my local one (a mere 9 miles away in a nearby city) just before christmas and had to leave after a few minutes because the half a dozen AC fans in the high ceiling severely affected my tinnitus:(
We used to have Tandy stores that carried Radioshack stock but they were all bought by Carphone Warehouse in 1999 and now they only exist as an online store.
I have noticed today that the article count is somewhat high for slashdot, usually only a few appear which gives people more time to get stuck into the discussions.
Even if the beta wasn't on the horizon, increasing the article count would probably dilute the content.
Dice don't appear to understand that articles != slashdot content. Why else would they force an abomination of a comment system on the slashdot users.

A Cheerson CX-20 is around the same size as a Phantom, and one has already accidentally killed a bald eagle that had attacked it: http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showpost.php?p=33893158&postcount=56152

There are always going to be people who are, to put it bluntly, thick as shit and have absolutely no aspirations to increase their intelligence level.
And you can't prove it!

Some hours ago I noticed the sun had gone, I hope whoever stole it will return it in the morning or it's going to be a very dark Monday.

I once saw an epic fight over a simple pair of sunglasses, it lasted for a good 6 minutes before the guy relented and they were forced to wear them.

Not easy when you're used to QWERTY.
In the past year I've quite gotten into the online gaming thing, with two games that are almost polar opposites.
Cheapest solution ever.
Is to not force any new UI on us.
Sure, go ahead and make a new interface if you want, but don't take away the one we already have, make it optional.
That's the biggest change you could make, to not make any change.
