What would be nice though is if I could send SMS msgs from my Mac to my children's Android phones.
Sending and receiving SMS messages from the Mac to Android phones works. You need to have your phone number associated with your iMessage/iCloud/Apple ID/whatever. Setup seems kind of non-intuitive, but once it works, you have a log of all your SMS/MMS conversations on the computer.
"far less"? All the diesels seen on the road today still (even after the low-sulfur directive) still stink to high heaven. Particulates are still visible, even if we ignore the Rolling Coal asswipes.
I mean, not only did he use a CAD program for a box with 4 arms, it doesn't even look "cool"... No lego fins, etc. Not even a minifig in a cockpit. It looks like every other quad-copter.
At least the plugin is sandboxed under Safari. Seeing as I'm not the only one, I'm sure Apple is gonna love all those crash reports about Flash today....how is Flash not being on the iPad a negative, again?
You can find a picture of a "4-D" Mandlebrot set in a mid/late 80's issue of Scientific American. I was generating pictures of this on a 286 pc. (with EGA graphics) 15 years ago, and the pictures in TFA of z^2 look *nothing* like that did.
The book "Skunk Works" by Ben Rich discussed a lot of this. Basically, they hired AF pilots (on loan or retired). This stuff was all very top-secret and the CIA didn't want it to be widespread knowledge in the Air Force.
They did this for the U-2 program too, which was a CIA initiated aircraft.

And anyone else who has an iPhone.

My iphone uses an actual alphanumerical password. Apple requires a minimum of 6 digits, but doesn't restrict to that.
So when you want to sit in a recliner, unwind from a day's work, and catch up on current events, what do you do instead of watching TV news?
I'm thinking "Read Slashdot".
Huh. The people I know use Obsidian Portal for RPG coordination. http://www.obsidianportal.com/

Much like Android's patching system, you are way too late.
Dude has not gotten a Dell.
It wasn't a comment on what he does with his grandkids. That's great and all that.
It was a comment on this being newsworthy, when the application of Lego was quite underwhelming.
Actually pretty lame.

am shifting my interweb searching to search engines that don't productize me.
Gah. This may have been a threadjack, but I just spent 15 minutes reading wikipedia Golden Girls-related articles. (3 of the four are dead now)

I saw this last week... In Saint Paul, MN. Where it started running 5 years ago. (Chicago is a recent expansion.)
Good show. I suggest going to see it next year.
This must be where The Lost City of Pnakotus was located!

Nice how this crashes the Flash plugin under OSX/Safari.
WTF?
No way to edit it, so I'll just say I was right.

That sounded like the music from the awards ceremony at the end, I thought.
This.

Must be nice. Whatever they did a couple of weeks back turned the front page into a mess with white article headlines on a white background.

I refer you to:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SR-71#Specifications_.28SR-71A.29
Where it says:
Crew:2
(not going to bother to look up the primary sources)
A-12: CIA-flown single-seater
SR-71: Air Force-flown two-seater
but I haven't ever used it by just waving it. Paywave If you thought RFID was scary...
Two decade ago. I saw this on the Discovery Channel, circa 1988. Beyond 2000 (formerly Towards 2000) was a fun show to watch.
The roof collectors looked like giant flowers.
