How many minutes you can stay unplugged, stupid? And if you need to stay connected to a power outlet to play, then what is the point of using a laptop? And remember that a video card of notebook is considerably lower than the equivalent desktop board, because otherwise it would melt your notebook on your lap. Inform yourself before you write shit.
Using 800x600 for resolution? Or paying triple for the same hardware and having to be plugged into an outlet all the time to not finish off the battery in 20 minutes?
The problem with the project is that it is plain stupid. You have no way to make a plane it an excellent dogfighter, an excellent striker and the excelent ground support at the same time. A sane general build three aircraft each specializing in something, such as the F22 as fighter, the F15 as a striker and the A10 as close air support. They tried the "Jack of all trades" with the FB-111 and failed, I thought they had learned their lesson. But Lockheed promises that he will be all of this to sell the project and bring the pork home.
I suspect that you are very close to the truth. Football here has always been a way to keep the masses under control, making them worry about football and forget the problems of the country. And if you take away the will of the people to watch football with such humiliation, what would happen? The controllers of the world are probably worried.
Still not enough. As other readers wrote, the quality of existing phone lines varies between questionable and mediocre, and most users will not live in a radius of 70 meters from the distribution point. It is already difficult to operate a 15Mbps ADSL, then imagine 1Gbps.
Note that many of the/. readers do not speak english, and the Google translator is very, very bad. Is even worse in my case as example, because many ideas in my native language (brazilian portuguese) are very difficult to express using english, even when you know how to write in english. So, unless you know that the commenter is from a country where english is the native language, take a break.
Range too short, higher frequency and therefore more sensitive to interference, and I doubt that is symmetrical (upload speed might be ridiculously low). Simply take the fiber to the home (FTTH) and period.
The plugin from bank itself can be considered a virus. As an example, the ridiculous plugin of the company GAS technology not only affect the overall operation of the computer (slowdowns all the time) as it is easily defeated by any malware. It's a piece of junk made by amateurs who only disrupt the computer without offering any protection.
Java is useful on the server side, if you keep away from the insanity of "fashion frameworks". Use only libraries (no frameworks), keep it simple stupid (yes, you can do that using Java), and you will accomplish good systems using it.
This. Javascript is the dumbest language I've ever had the displeasure of working. But I have to use it for not having another alternative when the code needs to be on the side of the browser. Javascript is shit, but we do not have choice.
I am a developer too, and you did not understand my point. I know how complicated it is for a computer to handle this situation, but you as a developer should make things easier/simpler/intuitive for the user, not to yourself (as a developer) or to the computer.
Look at that, fellow slashdotters. Here's an prime example of a being with such hatred of those who differ from the standard tea-party maggot, that anyone who agrees with how Musk do business is immediately and viciously attacked in the most Neanderthal way. Poor guy.
The good thing about Musk (and guys like him) is that profit is not the sole and exclusive purpose of the company. They are looking to do something well and profit is just a welcome consequence of this, not the sole purpose..
...The world is running out of hellholes that tolerate slave labour,...
This. Exactly that. People are not made to work like machines until they die of exhaustion, people are made to live as people. And the work is only a means to live, not the reason of the life.
I miss too. Okay, VB is bad to deal with threads (is possible, just not simple), is slow compared to C and have several other small defects. But having said that, so far I have not seen a better IDE to build simple and complex graphical interfaces, I had easy access to COM/ActiveX objects and if I really needed, is reasonably simple to deal directly with the Win32 API.

Dude, you are a very, very dumb piece of shit. Many people use computers to work, not to play flash games.

Fox news? It's hard to decide which is worse. But keep believing in them, will leave the work of your enemies easier.
Thanks, the linked site from the submission is total shit.

My bet is that someone are saying "hello, have anyone there listening?" and they may be closer than researchers believe.
Oh my ... You really believe in the marketing department of Lockheed...

The problem that I see on the issue is that once you hand your computer to the police, it's easy, too easy for them to plant evidence.

Maybe the PC version is actually the console version running within a custom virtual machine.
Damn, they found my scheme! Now I will have to get plutonium for my diabolical plans elsewhere.

Looking at this picture of him after the accident, I suspect that the answer is "a little high"

Humans beings use spaces in the names they give to things or to other human beings. So, why their computers would have to behave differently?
