Actually, as I read it, TFA seemed to say that big gears, made of silicon, don't wear down while small ones do contrary to accepted belief, thus making it news.
C4 requires a shockwave to detonate. It is extremely unlikely you'd set it off by burning, shooting, or dropping it. I think you're thinking of acetone peroxide.
How old was the battery? I read somewhere that some older li-ion batteries use lithium chlorate dissolved in ether as as an electrolyte, which is also a pretty decent sprengel explosive.
As I understand that line it says, " [We, the Congress of these United States, agree that] There is an, "Internet", This, 'Internet' is an excelent source for limitless terrorist propoganda; and this, 'Internet' has been implicated in the terroristification of American Citizens and no doubt will continue be to in the future." That in itself isn't false or harmful, but combined with what else congress knows it doesn't paint an optimistic picture about how they'll behave towards it. After all, what does Congress really know about the, "Internet" ? It's a series of tubes, the kids seem to like it, it's used to distribute child pr0n and piratted media, etc.
Statistics! OK, so one person from his/her partner and two or more from their own potassium. There may be overlap. It sounds more ominous when they make sex sound dangerous, no?
This doesn't seem so outlandish to me. Verizon just realized that they no longer have to go through nearly as much trouble subsidizing old and locking down new phones if any tom-dick-and-harry mom-and-pop outfit can now develop and sell a phone that they'll get revenue for. They'll probably be up to their old tricks with billing as well. Oh, and, you want tech support for your new phone? That'll be a $200 a year service contract and $200K licensing fee from the manufacturer...
Ah yes, I can see the grant appliction now, "...it is the delief of this researcher that the technology derivative of this work can be used to slowly nudge insurgents out of the way with massive lithic engines of war..."
It hasn't been my experience that there's any need for this extra, "talent" in the gaming industry. More importantly, though. These recently displaced writers are going to want 8% of every disk sold, and let's not even think about what'll happen when the WGA finds out about p2p.
While the net effect is simillar the two systems are very different. This scan you link to uses high-frequency microwaves to see through clothing in realtime. The 256 slice CT scan uses X-rays to make a 3d model of your insides in abotu a minute. The schipol system can see things like if you've got a bomb strapped to your chest or are trying to smuggle a snake under your jacket. The CT scanner can see things like your stomach contents or if you've got a microchip implanted in your arm.
The detector is specifically designed to detect high energy neutrons, which are much more difficult to stop. AFAIK (and IANA[nuclear physicist]) the only way to stop fast neutrons is to bounce them off something until they are slow neutrons and can be dealt with normally.
If the game is not harmful to gamers then how will letting it through harm the reputation of the BBFC? Isn't their job to keep the populace from seeing harmful things?
The problem is the OLPC was never a business venture. If Mr. Negroponte was concerned about economic viability of the XO he would have made it available in the first and second world where it would have sold on its merits instead of making it available only to third world governments who spend their money as much based on kickbacks and politics as they do the actual value they're getting. Capitalism works a lot better if you're not handicapping yourself and expecting your competitors to, "play fair".
Some of the salts they use in lithium ion batteries can form explosive mixtures with flammable materials, but the explosion would probably come from the fact that puncturing a battery pack containing about a megawatt hour of electricity would short it out rapidly converting most of that energy to heat.

They should do for the "War on spam," what they did for the, " War on drugs,". eg: auction off the evidence and let 'em keep the cash.
You must be new here. MS and Sony aren't /.'s most favoritest companies.
At 30fps, "hundreds of thousands of flexes" might get you through the LOTR trilogy, if you're really lucky.
Hopefully it's just you. How exactly does a gel exhibit fatigue? My first reaction was, "Oh noes! My RAM!"

Being such a great company Sony has given us this powerful and open console and what do we do with it? We crack passwords.

It's vaporware because none of us are going to see the effects of it for quite some time. Sure it exists, but you can't even tell us where to buy it.

What do you mean, "someday" ?
Articles that claim to be IT related, but are really just filling space in hopes of getting advertising revenue.
Well, yes, but c'mon, would you really want to be recorded driving a saturn?
Well, you can sail in a headwind, why not para-sail.. or whatever this would be called?

Something tells me that's not the first thing the, "Entertainment Industry" was thinking when they heard the words, "full body scan".

In the range of more than three, but less than ten.
