I agree.. that's like saying that movies will turn you an undead horde looking for brains every night, or give you the urge to make green people paste... The harm to children is that parents no longer take the time to explain right and wrong and expect video games / tv to be babysitter
I thought that Apple had agreed some time ago to the microUSB standard as a joint effort by phone manufacturers to reduce waste. It shouldn't be called the Lightning cable.. it should be called the 'fuck you planet' cable... Forgive me while I quietly giggle from the outside at all the people who buy into the closed off system, he said, typing from his Linux machine.
As much as I disagree with some of his methods, you don't think people like RMS read every line of code before they allow it on their computer? This is the man who wgets web pages so he can read the HTML before he looks at it in a web browser. There is also a large subset of the population who monitors all traffic in and out from their computer that a backdoor would be found rather quickly, I'd think.
I, personally, use./ because I learn something new every time I visit. Facebook is quite the opposite. No one cares what you had for dinner or what your kiddo looks like eating a popsicle.
You think that.. I think that.. Most of the American public thinks that.. Sadly, I doubt that this will happen because people on Wall Street seem to be above the law.
I am one of the ones who prefers RTD's style of telling over Moff's. I still can't figure out how the Doctor got out of the Pandorica, without creating a paradox... or plot hole.
Hate them both. My ssh editor of choice is nano, mainly because it just stays out of my way, not switching to insert mode in the middle of typing. No archaic sequences of keys to bother with, either.
We will have to go interstellar if we wish to survive as a species. We should be putting as many resources as possible into our own FTL drives now, aliens or not. The Sun is set to become a red giant around 120 mil years from now. If that doesn't burn us to a crisp, but instead pushes our orbit out like some models suggest, we will still have to contend with Andromeda in 4 bil years time. From all the models I've seen, there is a high chance we will be flung out into interstellar space.
Well, I'm on the fence whether or not aliens exist, to be honest. (I often joke that aliens came here, didn't find any intelligent life and left...) The probability for them existing goes up with every exoplanet we find. If by some weird joke of nature that we are literally the only intelligent life form in the Universe, UKSETI is a crucial step in proving or disproving that in a scientific manner.

I'm more afraid of what the Linux certification books will look like by then. They might be 7 volumes, covering each distribution.

Oh, I really hope that they add more Metro boxes.. :D :D :D (Happy with my analogue tablet, thank you!)
Release another version
+1 Funny for the headline alone!!!

I don't have mod points today, so here's a virtual +1 Interesting

Telling someone to grow up.. on /. ?? That's never been done before! :p

It's delicious when those people sometimes turn out to be the MPAA, RIAA or one of the copyright trolls.

Google is moving more towards hiring temporary employees. As a contractor, I wasn't eligible for the 20% time.
Only, he's Canadian and ineligible to run for President of the US.
He would make an interesting choice for the Doctor since he's dating Jenna Louise-Coleman... :p
Moffat has overused the weeping angels so much, that they really no longer seem like much of a threat.. oh wait, but then he killed them off..
I don't remember the episode number, Siffy trimmed it by 15 minutes to fit in more commercials.
We also don't know exactly how many regenerations River gave him, either.

If you remember, Mike Rogers was trying to push through CISPA. I think the signs of this were out there, long before the SOPA / PIPA debates.

Even on Star Trek, there were many many worlds that were not inhabited by humanoids.

Why can't I ever find posts like yours on days when I have mod rights? +1 Insightful
