I'm only a few years older myself, and possibly not in as good a shape either
I believe everyone should own some piece of technology from their birth year to let them know just how old they are. I have a 1963 car sitting in my driveway, and BOY does it look old...
Yeah, why they need a dedicated app has always confused me. Plenty of publications have paid web subscriptions, including different formats for mobile devices.
I also don't like agreeing with Jobs. But as long as consumers still have choices, he can do what he wants.
I won't do business with Apple, but as long as they don't have a monopoly or near-monopoly they can be dicks to whomever they want, charge whatever they want, put unreasonable restrictions on their own offerings, etc.
Not only does your user name really fit this thread, but an electric eel powered hovercraft has to be one of the top 3 coolest things I've heard of this week.
The Soviets almost never used to crack codes. They just social-engineered (blackmail, sex, gifts, schmoozed, etc) to get all the information they wanted.
Does the earth ever pass through the bubbles? If so, does our passing through correlate with more mutations and rapid evolution of various species in those times?
Inquiring minds that are too lazy to correlate the data themselves want to know!

I hear that soon they'll have the Internet on computer chips!

You know those particle physicists. You break their toroidal apparatus, they will break yours.
And the customized sex toy industry takes off!
My notebook batteries came pre-loaded with a virus!

Hot-racking will be standard on the military version of the ISS. You only get the closet for 6 hours out of 24.

By one guy.
Short haul truckers will resist this, but I doubt they have a good lobby...yet.
USPS, UPS and FedEx will like this IF they are involved. Otherwise they will fight it tooth and nail.
And they're just doing it for the fame.
Because with this new "digital" music there is an unlimited supply.
And as for not downloading it, there is no reason why.
Groovy. Thanks for the info. I'll actually be near there anyway in August, so maybe I'll drop in on Mono Lake then.
It would be like if I bought up a bunch of new cars, installed a bunch of after market parts, and then sold them as new.
Still legal.

Now I know where I'm going on vacation this spring.

First time I heard of Mono Lake was via Mark Twain:

Sounds like a really weird place.
I don't believe in myths, like quantum physics and octopuses.
14% of all people know THAT!
I can't come in today, my street has a bad cold.
And where's the love for the "Follow me" scene after the very famous and disgusting "Mr Creosote" scene in "Monty Python's The Meaning of Life", huh?
Well, that will make flying cars a lot easier to build.

It's how Mitnick did most of his work as well.
