I was all fired up about this until I read how it works. Gone are my dreams of Stallone or Schwarzenegger blasting mosquitoes while saying things like "Suck on this!" or "Sucks to be you"
I can't wait for more random commercial ventures from government agencies. Maybe the FDIC can make an energy drink or the Coast Guard can start a cosmetics line.
I was thinking the same thing. iPhone case that had been 3D printed? Ok, the software may be good for allowing the average consumer to create a 3D model, but to create iPhone cases. That's a ridiculous product. Let's see I get to put my face on my phone and my phone won't lay flat anymore and now it's 3 times as thick and when I talk on the phone it looks like I have a parasitic twin head on the side of my face. These are all great features sign me up.
Here's a tip. Don't live strictly based on the demands of someone else.
If you want to learn about Raspberry Pi, here's one method that cost you nothing. Don't learn about it and then throw a fit when someone else doesn't hand you a large bag of money for learning it. Learn about something that you like to learn about.
If you can apply it to a career, that's even better.
It's tough to compete with Hollywood expectations.
Heck, the governor of California was going to go to Mars, kill several bad guys, issue several lines of dry cool wit as he dispatched them and then install an atmosphere on Mars. Where is all that awesome stuff?
What was I saying again? Oh nevermind, did you see what Kim Kardashian was wearing?
More quality research from the Chuck Norris Institute of Bodily Harm. I predict the findings of their next study will either focus on the advantages of delivering a roundhouse kick while wearing jeans.
No way that would stand up to a RPG-7. The typical warhead on a RPG-7 is a HEAT warhead, which focuses the blast through a cone shaped cavity at the end of the explosive material. HEAT warheads typically make short work of homogeneous armor. In fact, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RPG-7 states the penetration of the basic RPG-7 round as 260 mm. Over 10 times the thickness of their armor.
My thoughts exactly. When I looked at the pictures my first thought is that this thing won't stand up to a.50 caliber or 12.7mm, especially multiple hits in the same area. There are just too many variables to the protection such as the weld quality, steel hardness, angle of impact, etc to make the blanket statement that it can resist up to 23mm cannon file. Seems like that, plus the reduced vision, high profile and most likely reduced mobility, would make that vehicle a death trap.

I don't know, that "the more the merrier" attitude worked for myspace.
I see they've gotten to you too. This goes a lot deeper than I thought.
Maybe we aren't giving EA enough credit. Maybe they discovered the best DRM was to make a total crap game that no one would even attempt pirate.
I think the original comment is a joke, but if you figure out how to selectively breed infertile mosquitoes for several generations let me know.
Good plan, show those mosquitoes how real blood suckers operate.

This is exactly right. Let's have a nice programming languages discussion instead. Surely no one can get worked up over that.
In most of the companies I've seen, things run smoother when C-level employees are not around
A lot of my overweight male friends would beg to differ
I like the start of your screenplay. Can you convert to a musical? That would be perfect.
Poor UPS guy. Imagine trying to get that up to the porch
No way this guy is going to get caught now.

That may be true, but I bet he really went for the booth babes.
Someone invented the precursor to the IP phone. It's the IP telegraph. Now I just need to polish up on my Morse code.
It's like the spirit of the "Jump to Conclusions" mat lives on

You can remove the word Kickstarter from that headline and it is just as true.

Guess the entry requirements were too hard on Mike Hawk.
Let's not roll the twinkie back to a mere 60 day of freshness.
