  1. Who still runs a PC? Well a great deal of companies... A very great deal, so a lot of people still have to use them every day. I'm the kind of Apple fanboy that thinks Apple's look great, work great but are just to expensive to actually own (and be able to upgrade every 2 years), unless you earn enough to buy loads of new stuff (well I guess then you don't have a family to feed/study/live or you really just earn a great deal of money) People not only want good looking computers, they wan't good looking, cheap and robust computers. Well that combination will never work. We've got to embrace the fact that we have a few big manufacturers or the market would be dead. So Tim Cook, live with it, because thanks to Microsoft/Windows you still have something to work for every day.

  2. Re:No real win on The Dawn of the Robotic Chef (robohub.org) · · Score: 1

    I think this robot is targeted towards people who can't cook.

    Everybody can cook... :)

  3. No real win on The Dawn of the Robotic Chef (robohub.org) · · Score: 2

    It appears to me that the most intensive work is still done by human, chopping and weighing all the ingredients... Also, if you can afford one of those robots, you could also afford getting some decent cooking lessons and do it yourselves. What will you while your robot is cooking your dinner? Probably watch a movie or something less active (even working is considered less active since 80% of the people work at a desk, sitting). To the kitchen!

  4. There are multiple platforms not using Flash. Look at Apple's Ipad. By default no Flash on this device and still you can visit 99% of the websites (even video content). Its just the developers that need to turn their heads on it, and start using alternatives.

    Well one thing in reseahttp://science.slashdot.org/story/15/11/09/1313258/the-neuroscientist-who-tested-a-brain-implant-on-himself#rch is the fact they are trying to find out whether it can harm you or not. So I assume not many people are eager to go and test this out?

  6. he Neuroscientist Who Tested a Brain Implant On Hi on The Neuroscientist Who Tested a Brain Implant On Himself (technologyreview.com) · · Score: 2

    The funny side of this story is, why did he have the implants removed? Side effects caused him to stop working himself as a patient? :) This appear's to be a "no brainer" :)

  7. Re: on Federal Government Removes 7 Americans From No-Fly List · · Score: 1

    Uh-Oh ;-)

  8. Re:Oblig xkcd on VeraCrypt Is the New TrueCrypt -- and It's Better · · Score: 1

    Step 4 isn't quite correct... Keep the old stack together, fill in the old password, then reshuffle and fill in the new... If you shuffle first, you might end up not being able to change your password since you don't remember the old one ;-)

  9. Losing Dopamine? on Music Really Is Intoxicating, After All · · Score: 1

    So our level of exitement (or level of dopamine) is dropping in the last generation... Since those ear buds are destroying our ears we will "enjoy" less of our excellent music thus we will make less dopamine, so we will grow old and be unexited? ;-)
