Great! Now that there is a temporary shortage of supply, I can sell mine and trade up to a Kindle 2 or a Google Nexus 7. Once the new ones are announced, I'm sure demand for the old ones will drop to zero. Thanks for the alert!
So you're saying the jury should have been full of multi-billion dollar corporations? I suppose that would make sense if corporations were legally people too...
Apple viruses have been around for awhile. Linux viruses exist. Viruses exist even for obscure, closed computer systems (look at STUXNET).
Statistically, were they less likely to get viruses because Apple's OS is on a lower percentage of the computers out there? Yes. Immune to all viruses? Laughable.
I find it ironic that Palmer, a mining billionaire, is trying to recreate the Titanic, while the entertainment billionaire James Cameron, who has done the most in the public eye with the Titanic in the past decade or so, is using his billions to mine asteroids (and arguably is doing more to potentially advance mankind in the process).
I read another article that kind of explains this better. The gist is that as dinosaurs grow up, they need to develop through several different kinds of ecosystems, young occupying an ecosystem of smaller fauna, medium of slightly larger fauna, and so forth, competing for similar resources. Because the existing dinosaurs had established themselves and crossed all ecosystems at some life phase or another, that was the status quo. When the asteroid hit and changed the status quo, mammals (which didn't grow through different fauna-sized ecosystems and better adapted to their own niches) were better able to compete for the same resources in the smaller- and middle- ecosystems, thus crowding out the slow-growth dinosaurs. It took an asteroid hitting the reset button on the global population for this to happen... dinosaurs didn't die overnight, they just never re-established themselves afterwards as well as the smaller species like mammals, smaller lizards, birds etc did.
In other words, it was a short fix so he could get initial wireless access to the network from his own computer so that they could get in an poke around some more. They did not deploy smartphones around the whole hotel as a permanent solution. I think the whole Smartphone thing was played up to make the article seem more appealing, but after he did that it looks like they used more mundane, standard approaches to tune and adjust the network to get it running to spec.
They have these other amazingly fuel-efficient vehicals powered by 11-year-olds which have been around for awhile. They are called "Bi-cycles." Amazingly, there is no petroleum-based MPG rating on them, as I understand they run on pizza and cookies.
Maybe it's that they expected to find 100-200 *variations*, but only 60 of them were significant variations (called "mistakes"), while the rest were variations that ended up being in line with the rest of the gene pool (so not noticed).
...were Twitter and Facebook "media?" The point of a gag order on a media agency is that you can tell a group of a few individuals who adhere to a common code of conduct not to do something. That just doesn't work when you tell a massive group of millions of people who don't read or know of the existence of certain gag orders not to do something.
OF COURSE they are fake. Try to log in and post for yourself. You try and it says "Sign in here with your PlayStation®Network ID to interact with the community and participate in the conversations." I tried and got a note saying "Site Maintenance Notice. The server is currently down for maintenance." It's the same system tied to the PSN servers that are out. Meaning these comments are being crafted by their PR and Marketing departments, as well as (possibly) other normal Sony employees and developers.
This is simply part of the on-going saga to "prove" that California is the correct venue for legal proceedings. The legal atrocities haven't even BEGUN.
Also, this just in! PS3's closed-source hardware encryption keys are also completely secure, and removing their "Other OS" option has helped Sony gain consumer's trust and leading market share!

All we need to do is hit the Brown Tide with Tide with Febreze. It'll get the brown out, *and* it will smell 10x fresher!

I'm sure the RIAA would be happy to pay the salaries of all the pre-screeners once they have used this to stop piracy and get all that extra revenue.
Now all I need is a 2000 inch TV to view it on. I think Weird Al knows where to get one.
...is that it's the first in a series of buildings to be built over the next 20 years. The next 4 are inspires by the letters ""L", "U", "L", and "Z".

IOC needs to protect its copyrights somehow.

It's because you didn't channel main power through the main deflector dish. Duh.
If this is our biggest barrier to developing one tomorrow, then why don't we have these already? I mean besides NASA budget cuts...
I for one welcome our recently-resurrected clone Dodo overlords.
Didn't you hear? It's BYOTFA now.

If that's not the right one, Google "screwdriver" with your make / model of Apple device.

This is Slashdot. People read the work "Voorwerp," chuckled, and went on to look for a new article to try and fan an Apple vs. Linux flame war .
