In other words, it is not an invention. It is well designed and well engineered. Examples of inventions: steam engine, Diesel engine, refrigeration, AC current.
Today's Republicans should be ashamed to call themselves such. I thought the GOP was supposed to be conservative, as in conserving the constitutionalist principles, not this bunch of fascist marionettes we have today (in both major parties).
of the older generation complaining about the spoiled youth. Guess who raised the spoiled youth? Yep, that's right.
It seems that a dose of hard times does wonders for a populations attitude in life. I keep thinking back to my grandparents' generation and what hard-working no-nonsense people they were, unlike my parents and their protesting of this chicken-shit war or another. No wonder today's generation is so good at whining. You just wait until your country gets invaded and then you'll see how quick you gain back the respect for science and engineering.
Nobody's locked out of anything, the source is there and you are welcome to fix it.
It used to be that people complained about lack of specs useful for writing drivers. Now people complain about the vendor not writing the actual driver! Kids these days...
Let me also suggest viking, an open-source GPS data manager. In addition to caching map tiles, it is also a GPS route editor useful for planning trips, doing trip analysis, etc.
I disagree, the off switch was working fine too;) They should have had a dead man sw... er. A cutoff switch! Um.. a termination switch.. argh! I give up.
I respect Asimov, but the three laws are pretty naive. I thought localroger's (from kuro5hin) robot stories were far more in line with how intelligent design might be done and turn out.

Programs running on humans = religion
Hackers = L. Ron Hubbard, whoever wrote the Bible, the Torah, etc.
Systems people don't joke when they say that everything has already been done by Multics!
Not to mention that there is almost no way adults can devote the kind of time that kids can to learning something new.
It's not immune to virus infections, I got a nasty cold from one just last week. Damn mouthbreathers!
What the heck do drivers have to do with this? Once someone writes one, everyone else uses it as a template?

I get what you mean, but Abdul is still cheating. Without the $100,000 base station his cell phone would be worthless.
"Abdul with the $50 cell phone, $100,000 base station, and the IED detonator seems to offer more bang for the buck."
There, fixed that for ya.

Alright, now I understand who Dan Lyons is. But who is Rob Enderle??? :)

My university is not cool enough to have a real reactor. All they got is these steam tunnels and a bunch of blue-glowing water!
Definitely the latter. "The students practically radiate with curieosity" "The students' eyes scintillate with joy"
Dude, there are multiple blowtorches and explosives on board large airliners!
What about with lots of power and MIMO? Office environment has lots of reflectors...
Where exactly did you go to high school? :)

So how does this work, she keeps the device on in order to get the IMs? Does she also walk around with a lead-acid battery and power inverter? :)

Where is that BSA phone number when you need it!

Wow, it looks good... in your opinion how does it compare to HOMM3? I've been looking out for something comparable with little luck so far.
