Not everyone with autism is an 'antisocial nerd' that's living in the gutter, thank you very much. People with autism may be even more productive in some areas than neurotypical people.
Yes, the Americans could start producing iPhones and cars. At local wages, I guess, driving up the prices of those items. So, basically the economy would go up because of lower unemployment, and down from higher prices...
A contract with your carrier with a 'free phone' attached costs about $50 a month, so (those are usually 2 years...) cost $1200 in two years. If you get a SIM-only contract (is that possible in the US?), those are $5 to $10 a month, so you save $800+ in 2 years. Hey, that's enough to buy an Edge, right there!
Well, I live in The Netherlands, and one of the things that we witnessed the last couple of weeks was a new law proposed by the Minister of Safety and Justice (...), Ivo Opstelten. He proposed that people who have encrypted files on their computer should be pressed into giving out their keys, "but only if they are very bad criminals, like when hiding child porn or are terrorists". Oh, so, that's OK then...
Yes, there _is_ such a thing as perfect consonance in music, but _not_ on an instrument with restricted frequency generation!
If you sing, or play a flute, or a violin, you're able to generate a much larger range of frequencies than when you play a piano. That way, you can, and should, create 'perfect consonance'. Note that this is a lot harder than 'hitting the right key on the piano'! And if you get it wrong, the beatings get annoying very quickly.
I've been told that 'the only way to get two flautists to play together nicely is to shoot one of them'.
The published paper is an interesting read. Obtaining the crypto key to libgcrypt is only one application. In general, the authors say, it is possible to construct a side-channel attack on other, unrelated, processes in the attacked VM.
Don't forget that this was in the docs that were available _after_ the NDA had been signed and the choice for the chip had been made! So, OpenMoko was 'duped' into buying that chip...
Not only that, but how are they going to take care of the Wardrivers who are going to drive around to see how much electricity is being used. If now so much, hey, perhaps the owners are on holiday...
Even worse is when the cashier's total shows 10.65 and you give them 21.15 (and not 20) to make it easier on them and they just stare, give you back the 1.15 and then proceed to count off 9.35 in bills and coins to give you your change...
True, but then I wouldn't expect the phenomenon to be more pronounced at a lower brightness. Unless, of course, the colors are changed at low brightness to take non-linear vision into account...
That may be true, but I've returned a new iMac to the store multiple times because I saw perceptible clicker in the screen. Maybe it's just me, but I seem to be perceive flicker more than other people. Luckily for me, one of the techs at the Apple Store also saw the flicker...
Now, when the screen brightness turns lower, and there's not much other light around, it's barely perceptible. It used to physically make me sick to see that screen in low brightness...

If making people realise that their basic rights are being trampled makes me a traitor, then I'd want to be a traitor any day...

Here's the original article (in Dutch): http://www.nu.nl/internet/2968803/minister-wil-ontsleutelplicht-invoeren.html
Ow, you're right... one only needs to be "suspected" these days...

Put them on the B-ark!

Finally, a judge with any common sense?
Did you know you can upgrade the Openmoko's motherboard? See http://www.gta04.org/
They're about 5km from where I currently am, so, no :-)
I've had my current phone number since... 1995 or something like that. Probably before that.
Note that I live in The Netherlands.

Didn't work for me...
