How is this news? People make homebrew/budget planes and what-not all the time. Remember those idiots with their weather balloon? Does X-Prize mean anything to you?
1 guy, in 2 weeks, trashed a botnet. Why again can't major ISPs do this? Oh wait, they're getting paid to look the other way by their colocation clients (the spammers).
As I tell my team all the time - "if you're finding it's hard to do, you're probably doing it wrong." Cargo-cult chimps are a dime a dozen, they beat out code all day long that kind of works and mostly sucks. The good programmer DOES sit there, stare into space, and comes up with a 5-line function to do the same work.
BB users are the biggest type-A douchebags around. They differ from their hipster iPhone douchebag brethren by typically wearing suits, talking loudly on their phones while waiting in line, and driving faux-retro American sedans. I knew when I woke up this morning that it would be a good day, as if millions of douchebags cried out and were suddenly silenced. Merry Christmas to all.
I'm sure you find it a priority, since you could then utilize all the homework others have done. Since it hasn't happened, it's clearly NOT a priority.
Just don't use their service. Everyone survived w/o it before, so its clearly not something you must have. If you decide to use it, STFU about the price.
So the country is 1.8 trillion (US) in the hole this year, yet someone, somewhere, is funding research half a mile underground, with superconductors, to find particles that might not exist, and if they do, don't mean anything? How do I get out of this chicken-shit outfit?
Which I guess is ok, but I'm guessing that if it was the Microsoft Windows Disk Auto-Resizer Wizard, you'd complain about losing visbility/control over your system.
You should explore that vast environment called 'the real world' sometime. Try telling your boss at Citibank that you need to rebuild custom kernels for all their Linux machines in the hopes that something will be.1% faster. When you kiss your RHEL support contract goodbye, you can kiss your job goodbye too.
Agreed. IBM sucks. Their support guys are script readers who ask for increasingly obscure logs and system settings, when you can demonstrate on day 1 of the bug report that there's a simple application bug.

There, I said it.
First they ignore you,
Then they laugh at you,
Then they fight you,
Then you win.
We've moved to stage 3 pretty quickly.
So the Canadian government says "jump" and the ISPs ask "how high?" before any kind of due process.

Coming up next - man grows his OWN food!!1!

Weren't these prices posted when OLPC first came out?
Negroponte, please.

+1 for digging up an old euphemism.

Next ?

How do I get out of this chicken-shit outfit?
They still make the Zune? I thought that it was like Microsoft Bob. Is it still brown?
It works, its free, it supports multiple CPUs. Done.
Separate your programs from your data, and your documents from your interactive media.
Or some other high-profile douchebag who can get them out scott-free.
How can you steal TV when it comes over the air, for free ?
Except for the fact that most Tor nodes are trojaned DoD machines, with all sorts of data->disk logging features. Or not. But how could you tell?
You sound gay.
The CPU is not the power hungry monster in a netbook, its the screen. Fix THAT problem before diddling with new CPU architectures.
They'll be robber barons because like in the 1800s, they bribed/gamed the governmental control system in place to achieve monopoly power.

Switch from Google to MS, because of PRIVACY issues?
