I can almost guarantee this is a moot point. The muscle is an extremely efficient machine, much more than anything we can build, if I recall my physics lessons correctly.
For example, what if we crowdsourced a prediction for which stocks will do well tomorrow?
There's a sort of unavoidable feedback loop when the entity responsible for prediction is also responsible for execution, even if that entity is "everyone".
That was my exact response. That's all ISP's have ever been, that's what we pay them to be, that's all we ever wanted. It's scary that they feel entitled to try to be anything else.
If they want to make money from content, they need to start providing it, not leech off those who do it well.
Nah, you can't just lump these two things into the category "US Military video". On one hand, you have video being sent back from a drone via radio transmission to its operators (yeah, SHOULD have been encrypted) so that they can control it. This is video that was recorded at the source on the helicopter, possibly encrypted later. Either way, this video was very much encrypted, it isn't a subject of debate at all.
I'm really surprised no one is mentioning this. Right before opening fire, someone on the helicopter says that a guy has an RPG pointed at them around a corner, but it is very clearly a man with a long zoom lens, and you can see the way he holds it up to his face just before he goes out of sight behind the building. Then, when the helicopter clears the building, this is confirmed when you again see the man holding the camera more clearly, and the group of people are gathered around looking at it (very likely looking at the photos he just shot). This is really important because at the end of the whole ordeal, someone on the ground radio's in asking about who called for the attack. The helicopter says that it was them that cleared to engage, and he repeatedly makes the point that they had an RPG pointed at them, which is wrong.
Also, the helicopter opens fire on the van because they claim the people in the van are "gathering bodies and weapons", when in fact they are ONLY helping the journalist who is crawling wounded on the ground.

I don't bash Fox because it's an entire ideology that's not my own, I bash Fox because it's an entire ideology and nothing more. And instead of offering useful insight and practical ideas, they just badmouth people endlessly and put a dramatic "this could be the straw that breaks the camel's back" spin on everything they disagree with. And have you ever clicked on the "US" stories section of their website? I kid you not, it is usually 80 - 90% stories of rape, murder, and other violent crimes from all across the country. As if nothing else important ever happens. They are nothing but mindless scare tactics. I stand against this kind of organization regardless of whether I'm aligned with their ideology.
I paid to see Avatar and Alice with depth perception, and that's what I got. It would be a scam if I paid to see them in 3D and only got a 2D showing. This is just a clever way to appeal to viewers. I enjoy it, so who cares?
So instead of punching my PIN number directly into the lock on my car or house, which have had PIN based locks available for decades, I instead pull out my phone, load my iKey app, and punch my PIN in there? Is this really easier or more secure?
Ok, so we'll remove all references to your work from Google, Slashdot, Twitter, and just about every source of exposure. That way, even though far fewer humans will end up reading the book, you can sleep soundly at night knowing that the human to computer ratio is extremely high.

"ZDNet is running a poll and opinion piece on whether McAfee should compensate customers."
Poll? Opinion piece??? This is fucking America. Spare me the nonsense, show me the lawyers.

I'm going to need to see a photo of a jet powered donkey attempting take-off, or bust.

Huh? Which United States do you live in, and how can I move there?

It is nearly impossible to differentiate between April Fools jokes, and actual news. I find this to be rather disturbing...
This is how:
We're hard at work on our website. We've got some great stuff in store for Sex.com for 2010, including:
-dating: get matched with sexy singles (and couples)
-classifieds: buy and sell merchandise, find work.
Sound like a $100million website to anyone?
"All of that is gonna work a lot better than my strategy of placing car sized holes covered with twigs and branches randomly every half mile or so down the interstates."
We'll just have to agree to disagree on this one.

This service uses fake money, and its free. I can't believe how much people will bitch about a subject when they are completely uninformed.
This just in. Apparently, Britain has been funding homeopathy...

Yeah, because a 300ft coke ad hovering in the sky above my house is going to be exhilarating...

"The hand, toted as the world's most advanced, is available for sale to researchers..." Damn, that must get heavy after a while.
You are absolutely correct. And I like your shirt.
