By "hospitable zone requirement" do they mean hospitable for life in general, or hospitable for humans? If life in general then that's ridiculous, of course life can form without water. If hospitable for humans, then I'd think water would be a pretty important thing to have.

Eh... As of late the ACs have seemed to be even more stupid than usual so I thought OP was serious...

Last I understood that's kinda the point of a *NIX system, the fact that you have so much control.
And then you hear a strange disembodied voice from your onstar unit (assuming it wasn't damaged) asking you if you were ok and they detected the airbags went off. I wonder what they would do if you flatly denied anything was wrong.
Whoa, since when do we have to give advance notice of international travel plans? I hadn't heard of this. Do you have an article or something to prove that?
I think the interesting contrast between Google+ and Facebook is that Facebook is just social media, just facebook.com. That's it. If G+ tanks, Google's lost a fair chunk of R&D, but if Facebook tanks, the entire company is gone. I think this is why Google hasn't pushed G+ as aggressively as people expected. Sure, it's a market they'd like to break into, but there's not an impending running-out-of-investor-money forcing them to get a hundred million users by tomorrow.
Ya know, I wouldn't blame the coders. When I was still in college a Zynga recruiter came by. They had a pretty sweet deal they offered us. I probably would have taken it if I didn't already have work. For people about to graduate, if they got an offer it was probably one of the best they got. I would be upset at executives and the people who designed the game, not the coders. The coders saw a good thing and jumped on it. Can't blame them for the insane games Zynga produces (well I guess you could but I think that's unfair to them).
Or the ability of people to send posts only to a select people. I'm sure according to a few people I know on G+, I never use it, because I never include them in my posts.
As much as I agree with most of what you say, I disagree that it's always a superior product. Sometimes it is, but not always (I define superior by quality, if you define it by cost then yes, it is superior).
We probably could have some sort of a UAV type robot-A UBR (Unmanned Bipedal Robot) that is controlled by someone a safe distance away. We have that kind of technology, limbs that can be flexible enough to do that kind of work, just not an AI smart enough to use them yet.

Not ENTIRELY accurate but we're getting there.
If the competing schoolyard bully doesn't care about you smuggling crayons (I know it's a weak analogy but it's been ages since I've been to middle school) then you do. If you're gonna get beat up anyway might as well pick the lesser evil. Heh... Kinda funny to consider china as the lesser evil, but as far as copyright violations are concerned....
I agree. I've been in data centers before. It's hell to get into some of them even if you DO have clearance. My favorite requires a biometric scan and a keycode to get into the lobby (though security can let you in in special cases, like if you need to get your hand scanned and have an appointment set up), another scan + keycode to get into an airlock type room (and another scan to get out of it), then a scan to get into your data center room, and ANOTHER key on the server cabinet itself. There is an override to the cabinet that the data center themselves keep on hand, but I don't think they would give it out without a court order. Hell I doubt anyone trying to just confiscate a server would even get into the airlock. It would honestly be simpler to just order the data center to cut internet access but I don't think that would be easy either.
I'm not commenting on the article at all, I'm commenting on your response to OP. If you were planning to just comment on the article, then why put it under another comment?
I think it's kinda funny that the people who are the most aggressive on slashdot are the ACs.
I can't tell if you are trolling or you just didn't read what OP said. Accounts which did not have the spam protection DID receive the emails. Not accounts that did not have the protection could SEND emails that didn't get blocked.

I've found google+ hangouts to be an ok substitute for skype. I'd like to see it ported over to android.
Whoa far out. I didn't even know this existed until now.
Heh maybe THAT'S why my neighbor is so pissed at me parking my car in front of his house....
There is no way those are legal. But I want one.

Heh does that mean that the USA should be the United States of China? After all they bailed us out....

I think the problem is that the domain holder themselves does not get notified of the pending domain seizure so they can't fight it.
Why on earth am I replying to an AC... The last five have just trolled me. Oh well maybe someone else will read this and gain wisdom from it.

Ahhh now it makes sense. Thank you for explaining that to me.
Why on earth would NetSol need a spam filter???
