The last thing I want is a wearable device I have to coddle. When it can go SCUBA diving and can run for a few years on a charge (or recharges via solar or movement) I'll consider it. Until then it's as useful as a car that has to charge all day every few miles.
Honest question here - how does this law affect gays and lesbians? It doesn't (to my admittedly naive thinking) seem to apply to anyone who has not changed their gender. Right? Wrong?
Show me a generator that burns fossil fuel and converts that energy into electricity at an efficiency over 80%, let alone 98%. I suspect that 98% is for converting the kinetic energy in the driveshaft into electricity, which sounds about right but if you're honest the least bit you know that most of the inefficiencies were paid for in getting the shaft to spin in the first place.
I think electric transportation is probably the future but let's not lie about it mkay?
I've been an NT user since 3.51 (which was delivered on LOTS of 3.5" floppies) and I've had no major issues. I don't install special viewers for naked pictures on Anna nor do I click there for cute kitty pictures. I just use the thing for work and games. Windows 8 was a little lame, 8.1 is great, 10 is also fine. But then I had no issues with Vista or 7 (or XP or 2K) either. Some people could break an anvil. In fairness I was literally never a Windows 9x user, so I think I missed some opportunities for failure there.
I think DLP could be considered digital, since the mirrors are essentially driven on and off for discrete times (PWM) and the 'analog' conversion is done in your wetware.
Very true, however if you have to choose between 30fps and shallow color (which is brutally throwing away a fixed amount of data) or an algorithm that can much more intelligently decide which parts of a 60fps HDR stream matter least, the 'lossy' version is very likely to look better and exhibit better fidelity with a 60fps HDR uncompressed original, even if nothing is 'lost' in the standard color 30fps version after the downconversion.
I'm sure they are aware the US didn't sign the Hague convention. The Army is actively considering using expanding projectiles anyway, as they are eager to improve wounding performance and reduce over-penetration.
My understanding is that it has more to do with inventory control and having a standing military armed on domestic soil being a political problem, but the order was issued in the 1990s and still stands. When these events occur the soldiers often ask to be allowed arms, just like regular citizens.
That would be OK for me, I make long drives, but only infrequently. My car (for instance) has been in the garage for 12 days in a row until yesterday, when I drove it 2 miles. In a few weeks I will drive 800 miles in a day, and then 5-6 days later I will return. A 1000 mile battery would work fantastically for me excepting a few very infrequent long road trips.
Some people in engineering definitely knew what was going on, and some of those were likely aware of the law. However in response to TFA saying that we can 'nail them all' I'm not convinced that everyone in the audit trail would have that level of knowledge or culpability.
Engineers are not lawyers. It's pretty easy for me to imagine a scenario where the engineer knew exactly what they were doing from a functional standpoint but not that it violated the letter of the law in a specific locale.
They are often not the absolute latest and greatest, but they tend to be close, and they do often cost a bit more than a non-ruggedized phone, but they are sub-$1000 and run fairly current versions of Android. Google for IP67 or IP68 Android. Some of them also include things like programmable 2-way radios and so forth.

She is in a fascist State. I take it you're not in California?
Ah I see. Too bad the article didn't bother to mention that.
Don't we have a constitutional amendment for that?

He's British, dummy.
Well then maybe he won't mind.
How would C4 be inert? In that it's not presently exploding?

Yeah, I guess he shouldn't have worn that skirt .....
To make it fair we could limit the AI to the physical size and energy constraints of a human brain ;)

They are trained with them, but they don't get to carry them around on base. They have a police force just like everywhere else.
Actually no, the accident rate of the humans who are near the robots double compared to the normal rate. The robots are never at fault.
"Waving someone to go first" at a 4 way stop just means it was done wrong.
Would this be news if it were Samuel Sharp posting this and quitting?
Drink company shareholders would probably be fine w/ paper cartons if all else were equal.

You can buy bottles of sterile saline.
12/20 is worse than average. Either your eyes are great and your memory isn't, or the other way around?
