It's not even that. The one we have at work was basically, here is the file you requested, with a link to some file sharing website link to a pdf file. Except if you looked at the address it wasn't even the right site. I got about 10 emails today with the "here you have" subject line, as well as 2 emails from people screaming not to open any suspicious emails.
Yet I keep getting them..
I'm pretty sure they already have similar things out there, electronic warfare planes to jam radar and guidance missiles. This just moves it from analog to digital systems.
Is this really a surprise given than IE is built into the Windows system anyway? Explorer is running in the background no matter what, so when you start up Firefox or any other browser its going to run on top of explorer.
I don't see the problem in this. As long as you give the aircraft a simple AI (planes practically fly themselves anyway), and a pre-set route, they should be fairly predictable. A simple in-the-air navigation system for collision avoidance and you're set.
Some schools have Lego Mindstorms, which have a primitive programming system. I mean, it's not hat hard to teach stuff like conditionals, loops, object, etc. The idea of anything taught at this level is to familiarize the student for higher-level work. We do spend 4 years teaching algebra, after all.
Why do we care about ground water in Mars? Don't we have bigger things to do here on Earth? All these Mars missions seem like a major waste of resources. Where is our moon base?

The only factor that gaming equipment offers is comfort, basically you can play longer without wearing yourself out. Then again, maybe you have bigger problems if you're getting to the point where you can wear youreslf out.
Morals are morals, you shouldn't kill, lie, etc, but that the book is only a way to explain those morals. How many people do you know tend sheep nowadays anyway?

Aren't all lasers in the THz range? I'm pretty sure all visible light and company are in the THz range.

And how do you plan to set up a virtual tree for the dog to do doggie business?
Someone just needs to throttle Comcast.
DDoS anyone?
But then in another decade the criteria for what is prize-worthy will have changed drastically.
Okay, this is taking military acronyms way too far..

Catholic doctrine teaches that the "holy book" is fallible.
I for one welcome our new gAndroid overlords!
I don't think it's possible not to roll over for the NSA. They do pretty much own your ass.
Why is this topic still going on? I would think that everyone agrees that pdf is the better standard.
At least we'll know what to do when ice-beam wielding aliens invade the farmlands.
I guess the atom chip and phantom console are both aptly named- you can't (and never will) see either of them!
Apple? Rumor? Thinksecret has been shut down! There are no more rumors to be had!
It seems like the sites already been /.ed for me.
And I thought the Optimus keyboard was vaporware... really expensive vaporware.
At least we solved the problem of where to find our hydrogen.
