Pish, putting a spin on things is old news. If you own a NIV Bible, congrats, you already own a book where theologians twist the source material to censor embarrassing verses.
Take Songs 5:4 for example:
Young's Literal Version
My beloved sent his hand from the net-work[probably something with threads], And my bowels were moved for him.
New International Version
My lover thrust his hand through the latch-opening; my heart began to pound for him.
The Interpretation
Read it yourself here.
It's like taking "You idiot, you aren't wearing a condom!" and publishing it as "Dear, your pen is uncapped." on the virtue that "pen is" remotely looks like "penis" which, when substituted, gives a meaning similar to the original.
I am a person born to parents who do not speak good English (They're Chinese). Around my friends, I speak perfect English. It is not a matter of hiding. It is a matter of communication. By employing a similar tone and vocabulary as my mother, I like to think that that communicates that we are on the same page. Otherwise I will feel a little like an outsider.
I'm a college kid and I have acne. Let's just sat that the situation here is much more... amicable than a certain browser which develops unpatched exploits.
For example, acne can be controlled with face cream. A disease on the magnitude of exploits require erasing me into existence and constructing me again. So... yeah.
Correction: Please remember that the vast majority of hardware and peripherals are designed from the ground up to use their own protocols that are unintelligible to operating systems except through drivers, with only Windows drivers intended to be released.
The being-run-over-by-trucks part is probably just a marketing pitch, but the main draw of these ruggedized 'books is that they can withstand more shock than the average laptop. Where your standard laptops die after dropping from the desk, these can withstand a 2-storey drop, and some are very water resistant. Perfect for active engineers.
Also, given Apple's censorship policies, I daresay not many a good game developer wants to develop for the iPhone. <Disclaimer: 100% opinion & speculation>
Not really. That's where coal came from. Plants inhale the carbon dioxide in the air, make 'em carbom, die, decompose, get buried in the ground, and 100,000,000 years later become coal and oil.
Look, this kind of stuff is only possible because it all exists in an abstract world called the Internet. In real life, such a bill would be ridiculous. By banning P2P, the only way you can communicate with a friend would be through centralized mass media, which analogue online are service providers like gmail. No possibility of gossip without a Big Brother eavesdropping. I sure as hell do not entertain there being no possibility to not let a third-party through my communications. After restricting torrents, I'm certain e-mail will be the next to be DRM'd.
To build a spaceship large enough such that it can be rotated to generate pseudo-gravity will require a degree of construction in space. Logistics demands it. In addition to the space, we also need the resources to boost the materials up into space. So, not feasible in the near future.
The hype is because it has no technical jargon words. The media gets a headache when it encounters technical jargon. The hype is because it has marketing jargon. The media falls head-over-heels when it encounters marketing jargon.
There is still isohunt, mininova, demonoid and torrentreactor, all based in countries with different jurisdictions. Atop of that, there is still rapidshare, mediafire, and let's not forget the ol' IRC channels. I wouldn't want to be in the shoes of The Pirate Bay, torrent greppers or the torrent trackers, though.
GATTACA may happen if this becomes a situation where drugs that are effective on only certain genes become really cheap, and no suitable substitute is available for those whose genes do not permit good medication.

This is a troll. Substitute MS for any other high-profile company and it will still hold valid.

Read it again. It's Microsoft CO-FEE masquerading as COFFEE.
The problem is, I'm quite certain that the wavelengths that are not absorbed are also difficult to harness.
You are supposed to hold your ear to the light if an insect gets in it. Trying to scratch it out will only make it more frightened and burrow deeper.

I wonder if multiple incognito firefox sessions will do the trick?
Right now I'm wondering what will happen to people who purchase Apple MacBooks, mod 'em and resell 'em, like Axiotron and their ModBooks.

I must be in one of the wrong futures.

Mod informative please.

I'm sure that those people had constant refuellings with air over the years (maintenance). There isn't in a closed environment like a shuttle to Mars.
Still, given the proximity of the queue to the machine, don't you receive a healthy dose of radiation already?
Rather, use a logarithmic scale.

Actually, they store 'em in databases. A fixed summary would read:
... "right" allele of the CYP2D6 gene
As for how small a neutron star is, it's ~20 km in diameter.
