What's the big point of the Space Future, again? If we had warp drive or canals on Mars it would be different, but in our universe....?
Um. To ensure the continued survival of the human race by ensuring we have a fallback for when Mother Earth become unsuitable for life/eaten by the sun/hit be a meteorite/Mormon
Of course, if you aren't interested in the future of the human race, I'd love to understand the basis of your morality, while I murder your children.
You know this whole situation is going on again right now.
The JSF is being built at the same cost (or frikken more) as the F22 with lower end tech to be sold to allies (where the F22 is under high-end tech restrictions).
Guess which one is going to be chosen by the USAF to buy?
To summarize: I feel major devs should take the philosophy of cheaper games to more people (the population just goes up!), along with lighter games at lower costs as a way to keep revenue flowing between blockbusters and to keep actual "game-play" creation skills sharp. Because the lighter, smaller, cheaper game can't rely on uber graphics and next gen tech and famous voice actors to carry them. And one of their lighter games that succeeds beyond expectations could become their next AAA title with a sequel and funding to match. So their potential AAA IP pool is also increase with this development philosophy.
So Nintendo should keep pumping out Wii games then?
I think singleparent should be commended for coming here and asking this question.
If at-home content-filtering were more prevelant, Australia would not be bringing in its bloody filtering./aside
I haven't much experience singleparent, but start off maybe by looking at what options your modem and router offer. Any halfway decent combo will let you filter by IP (you'll need to track down the IP addresses) and disable VPN.
Having said that I'm a researcher who writes and uses high-performance parallel software daily. How might I become one of Intel's select few to trial these chips? I can certainly think of ways to keep them warm!
ummm, lets start by not explaining why one of these things won't help your research?
Slashdot Mirror
I guess you don't like soup?
nah, we've given up on both those fronts and figured we might stand a chance of an actual victory if we stick in afghanistan
We are also training killer Wombats and Koala drop bears.
dude. on a serious note, lets try and do what we can to protect the drop bears.
Those suicidal little bastards need all the help we can give 'em to survive.

Mod parent up, this seems to be the most insightful reading of TFA on the forum.
So HTC could pick up Palm, have their own (decent) OS and stop manufacturing for Android?
Android could be in trouble without HTC, especially down here in Oz, since AFAIK the only android phones atm are the Magic and Desire (coming soon)...
seems everyone forgot the buffalo, the cane beetle (that the toad was supposed to wipe out)
yep.
damn those ex-government monopolies holding back innovation.
although tbf, since Telstra is over 100 years, you'd expect that their page would be a bit longer.
Looks like delimiter have some work on their hands...

Go and speak to your neighbours?

it wasn't the decimal that was confusing the US, it was the kms.
Or can we license an AI? I guess yes, if the AI manages to pass the driving exams. Or is this expedition part of the exam?
Turing Test 2.0, now testing on a highway near you!
yeah i always thought that some of the basic constructs shouldn't be classes. common things like ints shouldn't need to be boxed..
don't forget Other Guy!
i dunno, the +2 Cha from the Hawaiian might make it a relevant joke.
So I've been trawling the android forum, and apparently the lack of market app in certain countries is due to the carriers removing the market from the firmware. Reflashing the firmware apparently includes the market irrespective of location:
http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Android+Market/thread?tid=77c72b9d5214d01b&hl=en.
also worth noting (for those of us with the market) - check out ePetition Open Android, a petition to google to ensure everyone gets the market
it doesn't, but the "DEAD ZONES" are places where there is no access to the marketplace
yep, thats pretty much what nokia are getting at here.
their lack of market saturation ties their hands. lure the pirates in to buying the handset, or not penetrate the handset market at all
First Pluto and now fruit flies! What are they going to change next fetal pigs?
Yep, they've become foetal pigs.
Still, +1 for the effort.
Software concerns itself with backwards compatibility because computers can't very well check for themselves.
Journalism concerns itself with backwards compatibility as an easy way to weed out lazy journalists.
no no, he meant Kores

coz he needed 640 peddle-pushing monkeys to power his plans for power dominion.
