    Since they have no reasonable expectation to privacy in the first place I think I'm gonna have a blast this weekend.

  3. Re:Wait... on Marvell Launches First Triple-Core Hybrid ARM Chip · · Score: 3, Informative

    From the full article: While two of the cores are a pretty standard SMP setup, as seen in other dual-core ARM implementations, the third is a standalone processor designed for ultra-low-power draw. The idea behind such a design is that when the system is idle, or only running a low-performance application on a single thread, it can shut off the dual-core portion and save oodles of power. So, they have designed that third core from the ground up with powerconsumption in mind. Whereas the 'normal' cpu's are designed with speed, processing-power and scalability in mind.

    Ah, ok thank you too! Yeah for me it's weird. I have never seen that, since I was kid it was normal to fill up your own tanks here. But I sort of can understand the safety-motive (not really because well, It's safe enough given the complete lack of accidents here at the pump) but I can understand it. If only to protect people from inhaling the fumes :P

    Wow buddy, you ok? I can see you are a foe of a friend, but no need to get all personal here ok? Rapport, that's Dutch for report. My bad. Any way, because there seems to be(no phun intended) a bit of confusion here. I do believe bee's can fly. However, they do fly really really weird. As has been proven in 2009. http://media.caltech.edu/press_releases/12772

    If they are allowed to read it and learn about like we were. Really history will be very interesting for future generations. Up until 1900 every government kept tracks of their wars and dirty shit. That's the stuff we read about in the books today. But rest assured that since World War 1 nations are actively involved in trying to hide information forever, every 'secret service' will not have records on the more important and crazy operations. Afraid they would ever become public, not realizing that in 100 years, no one will give a shit. it's a shame really. But you are 100% right though, not sure if it will be about this particular subject, but in general... they will laugh at our medical knowledge, the way we provide ourself with energy and probably every other 'high-tech' thingie we have now, hell I wouldn't be surprised if between now and then some research will prove that magnetic and electric radiation is actually bad for people and they will laugh at us, holding up that mobile against our ears, when it's not tucked away next to your balls.

    Dear US friends... Help me out here. I am a male that has seen 2 centuries. I am older than 30 but younger than 50. I have never ever seen someone fill up my car. You drive up to a gas station here, get out of the car, put the nozzle in, go inside and pay. But you guys actually have states were it is illegal to fill up your own car? Why? 'They took our jobs'-argument or is there something more behind it? Last couple of years you see here in the Netherlands more and more gasstations that don't have any personal. You put in your creditcard or banking-card and there you go, you can fill her up. I would feel so uncomfortable to let somebody else fill up my car.

    Well until the day I see the rapport with the reason of how they can fly I still believe this yes... It's all in the weight. Not so much the lift. There are a zillion insects and birds that use the clap-wing-method and don't defy gravity. They actually should be able to fly. But bees... bees should walk. Just like everybody else that can't fly!

    If you can power an airplane with human-muscle you may be on your way to find out how the hell bees can fly (they should not be able to fly if the current laws of psychics were correct), but on a more 'profit'-base. He at the very least found a way to reduce air-drag and that knowledge might save a couple thousand of gallon jet-fuel per trip in commercial airlines. I'm am sure I am missing a lot of other things that is to be gained from this.

    The USA was allowed to enter the poll... come on, I don't have to explain that this is not the way to find out about public opinion of the foreign thoughts. Besides, the people here don't participate in such polls. They tell what they feel in bars and at work. Come on mate, do I really have to explain this? Even that poll itself calls it the Obama-effect.

    You don't ask the USA how the rest of the world thinks about them... That will fuck up such a great 'scientific research'. How do you think this poll would come out with Bush still as president and without the USA being able to participate? Do you really think it would be better? I know you guys are sometimes a bit ignorant, but trust me mate... go here on the streets and ask what people find about the USA politics. Then be a man and admit you were wrong. But having said that, feel free to keep your head in the sand. It's just a shame that you aren't able to have a critical look at your country and see what it is doing wrong.
