With a 5 digit UID, I'm surprised you're asking./. has been recycling old news - often more than once - for the past 15 years. It's not even annoying, it's a feature: this place wouldn't be what it is with fresh news, or without people who complain about the news not being fresh. It's a sort of tradition here, I'd be sad to see it go personally.
Paintball is expensive. Personally, if I want exercise, I go for a bike ride. But if I wanted exercise *AND* shooting (and also the feeling of killing people rather than spraying brightly-colored dyes on their clothes), I'd absolutely LOVE one of these treadmills.
Closed source software with obscure network protocol, now owned by a corporation whose main concern isn't the users' best interest, turns out to be not so nice after all. News at 10...
The best way to do use Skype for anything more important than saying hello to your grandmother for free on the internet is not to use Skype. Everybody with half a brain has known that for many years.Duh...
Within 6 years is a pretty easy prediction if you ask me.
My prediction: "100% of those who scored below 100 percent on the test will be stone cold within 100 years at the most". I guarantee it's 100% accurate too.
What makes you think that Eisenhower was honest and sane?
The military-industrial complex speech. That alone tells me the man worked for his country, not for money or power, that he had the insight to pinpoint the danger to the country, and the balls to denounce it publicly.
and some duct-tape at your local Home Depot, and I guarantee you you'll be flagged as a terrorist. Thinking of paying for things in cash to avoid that? That looks suspicious too these days.

How about terraforming the place? It'd take between 2 and 5 centuries, and by then we'd have much better space vehicles to get there, and no need for spacesuits and airtight houses once there.
This most likely won't result in much more than spending a bunch of money on a design study. Just look at how many times NASA went through billions in studies to come up with zilch eventually. The main difference here, being the private sector, is that sane investors will pull the plug before it reaches mere millions, not billions.
Wake me up when they start building something. Until then, it's PR.
Yes, and the last thing I want is find myself in a room with a bunch of cellphones chirping away, broadcasting audio data to one another. Cellphones are annoying enough when people use stupid ringtones (scratch that, they're annoying when they ring almost all the time in fact). I think I'd go peculiar if they starting screaming modem noises all the time.
What's wrong with Bluetooth or IRDA? It's a lot faster and it's quiet ferchrissake...
One aggressive country with a huge military and a penchant for preemptive strikes is quite enough to make the world a scary place. And I'm not talking about NK...
You know, I've read your post three times and I still haven't got the faintest idea what you're on about. So many repetitions of the words "duplicate" and "copy" in so few meaningless sentences: you should be a *AA lawyer!

Sensitive gay issues are best solved by Preparation H, not censorship.
They should just outsource production to Ind... no wait...
It's about innovative as this, which has been around since the 60s in one form or another.
Canonical is such a train wreck of a company. Doing it all wrong technically and now politically.
Oh yeah, because Russia today is so much more desirable and has completely stopped all its spying activities.

How you can you accuse them of being asleep at thw wheel when both the parties they can choose do the same sort of shenanigans?
Newsflash: there are more than 2 parties in the US. Most Americans are too uneducated or too brainwashed by television to realize that though...
So no, the voting public isn't asleep at the wheel, more like sitting dazed and dribbling in complete stupor in front of it.
Maybe the US voters are asleep at the wheel?
You just noticed? How quaint.
There hasn't been a totally honest or sane US president since Eisenhower...

Not many people were bitching when Google went a lot farther than this with every aspect of Android
There's a small difference: Google wasn't a two-bit Linux shop with a chronic lack of cash.

Well, color me reassured.

Hmm, so you're into fisting are you?
By the way, most smartphones have a spellchecker. Maybe /. editors could use them to post articles...

I can't help but noticing the illustration in TFA shows a researcher analyzing... a dirty daguerreotype. Surprise surprise...
Consider this instead: STEM visa holders got an education that didn't cost a penny to the US, and brought that added value to the US.
