While Apple’s iPad 2 has 65,000 applications, excluding those designed for the iPhone. Honeycomb has far fewer, and commentators have been competing to offer lower numbers.
This just in: New tablet has no apps. New cars have no mileage. New bank accounts have a $0 balance. Film at 11.
Billing data is just 2 phone numbers and the duration of the call. Nothing more. I don't see how knowing your precise geographical location can make the taxation easier.
Lets not forget their real goal here... They want to install GPS units to record millage in every ones car. To make sure the revenue goes to the county whos roads are getting used, they'll log your location. While they're at it they can track your speed and eliminate the need for police to monitor for speeders.
But isn't that a good thing?
This way the cops can focus on their primary responsibility - eating donuts.
Stop being so pessimistic. This is a very good thing if you look at it from a different perspective: "RIAA doubled mankind's GDP with a single lawsuit"
"According to PCMag.com, the New York Times has asked Twitter to shut down the FreeNYT Twitter feed that basically retweets all of the Times' articles. Is this really possible? After all, the feed just points to a list of Times Twitter accounts, all of which can also be found on the Times' website. If the Times succeeds in shutting this down, it could have a chilling effect for Twitter and online free speech in general."
My W510 draws only around 50 watts, but its power brick is rated for 120 watts. My desktop is likewise over-provisioned as well to account for power consumption spikes.
However by combining the AC to DC conversion of 100 computers, the over-provisioning factor can be much much less, because it's very unlikely that the computer enter into power spikes at the exact same time.
Atomic bombs are designed to consume as much of the fissionable material as possible.
That's actually a common misconception. Many bombs built in the cold war era had the design goal of maximizing radioactive fallouts as opposed to maximizing the yield. The rationale was that the blast waves can't cover the entire enemy nation, but the radioactive fallout can.
"Ten minutes next to the reactor core of Fukushima after partial meltdown" or "Dose from spending an hour on the grounds at the Fukushima plant in 2036"
I really don't see how you can come up with those figures, considering that 1. no one is standing next to the reactor core and 2. you can't predict the future.
Actually in 1999 the Chinese introduced a new series of bills that prominently feature Mao on every denomination. This was the first time in history that renminbi featured a real person's portrait.
Furthermore, Mao's portrait has been displayed at the Tiananmen gate ever since founding of the country.

Your story didn't demonstrated how powerful CLI is. Your story demonstrated how powerful backups could be.

Of course it would look different. The Russian image is actually taken in space, unlike the NASA one which was filmed in a sound stage.
Ring ring ring ring ring ring ring, Banana phone. (now made out of REAL bananas)
billing data != location data

Then why would google publish an API that allows you to access their search back-end directly then? Why would Google offer an underground tunnel to their impenetrable "castle" for free?
So the solution is simple then.
Scientists just need to find more corrupt politician buddies than the army jocks.

But repo is not part of git.
The first Android 3.0 device shipped back in February 24th.
No wonder I couldn't reach Him when I dialed "666".
BRB, selling soul.
There are plenty of cases where people survived falls of 20,000 feet or more so I really don't see this as impressive.
Seeing as how Slashdot is the #1 time waster for programmers, it could be ironically responsible for DNF's forever delays.

the only country that was attacked with nuclear weapons

Average doses in the world due to fallout: 0.11mSv
Average doses in Japan due to fallout: 0.012mSv
Isn't it ironic how the only country that was attacked with nuclear weapons actually has less fallout than the rest of the world?
The Chinese have begun to remove statues of Mao.

Because the CPC never used tanks to obliterate their own people, right?
