Wish it was active when I went over during Christmas, 5 Euro's a day isn't very expensive really, about the cost of a loaf of a bread in a canal side restaurant!
The idea sounds very good in principle, but I am worried about what happens if we get the DNA coding wrong, I'm not expecting Day of the Triffids stuff here, but do we really know enough about what each little bit of DNA does to be sure we wont create something we'll regret?
I"m in favour of GM crops, mainly because I feel that is simply an acceleration of selective breeding, but engineering a process into an organism that does not normally do this worries me. (I realise that this too can be seen as accelerated selective breeding, but this is thousands of generations as opposed to a few hundred max.)
I hate to break this to you, but linux is not necessarily the best OSS, you may well have been better leaving it with the default operating system. even though it was probably Microsoft XP
Thankyou for the very detailed explanation, although, at the end of the post you started to slip back into techie speech, and away from your house analogy. That post has explained a lot about how this works to me.
One case is hardly proof, by that logic, if I can do run a km, I can run a marathon. I'm not saying it isn't a good thing that they got the patent revoked, I just think that this rather blatant advertising.
What do you know, it looks like Microsoft use Verizon maths as well
Since the Beta 2 release last spring, SmartScreen filter has blocked over 8 million malware and phishing scams, and projections show that it's on target for over 1 million blocks per day.
It's blocked 8 million, over the course of a year, and is on target for 1 million blocks a day how?
Really, what is the problem with this, at least they found out something was wrong before they accidentally blew something up. Most satellites are getting on a bit, so that there are tech issues shouldn't be worrying, and this is an endorsement of the ability of people to pick up the problem in the first place.
To summarise the/. summary article, all computing hardware companies are going bankrupt, with the exception of Intel, who are delaying projects as well.
Didn't you hear? Slashdot is not coming to you from explicit.bing.net! We welcome our new filtering overlords.
Please sit down and discuss how great Windows Vista is, bonus points for mention the Mojave Experiment. Oh, and if you are running any variant of linux, our new super computer will overwrite it with a brand new copy of Vista for you almost free of charge. Microsoft, controlling your life since you were born.
I know, lets put all our information on 10's of thousands of people, in a single database for easy access, nothing can go wrong... No one has USB's or anything, and everyone of our many employees is trustworthy...
That would seem like a typical case of unauthorized use of a system to me, but hardly qualify as 'hacking'. When legal charges are to be brought, use a correct description of the crime, will you?

Well, I could if I had an iPhone, sounds like an impressive achievement though, but how much space do you have left over after it?

Sounds complicated and admittedly, I know very little about this, but congrats anyway.

Even better, two tin cans and some string. Nigh on impossible to tap, and no encryption necessary!
I was going to read the feature article, but I think the site is suffering from the legendary Slashdot effect, either that, or the link is broken...
I'm apologise if I caused offence, I always enjoy reading your submissions and in this case I was guilty of not reading the feature article.

Donate to us, because we got a patent revoked.

Double negative mate, you just said you do need an education, and you do need though control.

How I love this industry

I admire the fact that a guy could be bothered to do this though
And the documentary series that followed: "Things that should never have been done"
Take a look at the sketch: The front wheels are so small that the body scratches the tarmac!
That isn't a problem, it is less likely to get blown off the road that way.
Or unlucky for the astronauts who now have even more time to stress out over the 13's appearing everywhere.
Too late, it made a nice snack though...
You have too much time on your hands...

Stupidity on the part of the legal owner?
Most likely, the username...
