If a survey taker called me and asked if cloud computing was affected by weather, I'd say "well, obviously!", simply because the question was intended to be ridiculous, in a "should dihydrogen monoxide be regulated" sort of way. I wonder how many survey takers took the same tack, and whether it skewed the results.
This. Canon PowerShot hackers have developed a replacement firmware to provide the user more tools than the standard firmware - scripting, access to RAW files, and so on. It is, however, still a hack, so things like power management take a hit.

Lockheed A-12: Wow! A space shuttle! That's amazing! Hey, what's it like being in outer space?
Enterprise: What? Oh, I've never been in outer space.
A: Never been in outer space?
E: Well, they used me for test flights, and they were talking about doing some retrofits, but...
A: Hey, wait a minute! You don't have a heat shield! Or engines! Your a great big phony! (yelling to all the other craft on the deck) Hey everybody! This guy's a big fat phony!
Would they of their own volition narc on a pot sale? Or a direct action protest? Or someone that didn't pay a use tax on an out-of-state purchase? Wouldn't they have to, else be accused of picking and choosing which laws they help to enforce?
The young people love Bill Gates, but we keep telling them this is NOT the same Bill Gates we grew up with! This is an old Bill Gates whose trying to get into heaven now.
Years ago on a tour of the National Air and Space Museum, our (female) guide gave us the straight dope on Amelia Earhart. She was at best a mediocre pilot who was pressed into performing stunts like crossing the Atlantic by her publicity-mad husband.
If, of all words of tongue and pen, The saddest are, "It might have been," More sad are these we daily see: "It is, but hadn’t ought to be."

Apple headquarters, main boardroom. It is full of executives in suits and ties.
John Sculley: Right, all those in favor, say 'aye'.
(all hands go up)
Everyone: Aye!!
(Steve enters, wearing jeans, sneakers, and a denim shirt. His hands are full.)
Steve: Alrighty, folks, I got pizzas and Shastas. Now let's get this meeting started! (silence.) What?
Front of the building.
(Steve is bum-rushed out the front doors. Lying on the ground, a large duffel bag is tossed to him. )
John Sculley: Just take your 400 million dollars and get out of our sight!
(The doors close as the executives walk away inside. Steve gets up, brushes himself off, picks up the bag.)
Steve: (yelling at the doors) Fine! I don't need you guys anyway! I'm gonna start another computer company that'll knock Apple on its ASS! It'll have PostScript-driven grayscale displays! Magnesium casings! I'll sell 'em to colleges for $10,000 each! AND THEY'LL BE GLAD TO PAY IT!

After a time, you may find that having is not so pleasing a thing, after all, as wanting. It is not logical, but it is often true.

Jokes aside, might there be a mix of hydrogen, helium, other gases that would still float a balloon but still be (relatively) non-combustible?
