The trailer certainly looks promising. A big-budget Hollywood movie like this may be just what it takes to raise the public's awareness of the dangers that artificial intelligence poses to our race. I realize that Spielberg's movie is a complete work of fiction, but the movie's plot deals with the important issue of the possible consequenses when humans try to "play God" and create a new race of sentient machines.
With more and more vital functions of our nations government, banking infrastructure, and military defense relying on machines to perform increasingly complicated tasks, one must wonder what precautions the government is taking to prevent the machines from turning against us. I realize that this seems a bit absurd to most people, but just look at how quickly computer science is advancing. We may not have a machine with the processing power to act as a conscious being right now, but the day that we will is much sooner than you think.
We need a strong, powerful government as proposed by such sensible leaders as George W. Bush to implement measures to ensure that a scenario will remain just fiction. I am calling for immediate government regulation and supervision of all artificial intelligence research programs. Take my advice, when the time comes for the robots to take over, you'll either be enslaved by your mechanical masters, or you'll be ground up for axle grease if you resist.
Large aircraft, such as the Boeing 747 require dozens of man-hours of maintenance for each hour they're in the air anyway. Replacing an ethernet port every couple of years would not be a big deal. The same argument could be given for the headphones offered on planes. Why doesn't the plane just take the headphone jacks out of the seat and provide wireless headphones to passengers?
How would wireless ethernet signals affect the plane's electronic systems. I know that the reason cellular phones aren't allowed to be used in planes is that the radio signal emitted by the phone can interfere with the plane's navigation equipment. There have been several crashes linked to cell phone usage in-flight. Wouldn't it be easier to just add a RJ-45 jack next to the headphone jacks on all the seats?
Yes. According to this article on The Register, the DNS server is down. The webserver is still functioning and can be accessed by entering the IP address into your browser's address bar.
You weren't supposed to tell them. Of course it's easy to crack, but now that the RIAA knows that, they won't use it to copy protect their content. Now how are we supposed to get our free music and WaR3z. Now you've went and ruined it for everyone.
It's a satellite dish! Everyone's getting the exact same signal. It's not like they can say "Okay, this guy paid for our premium service, so we need to beam 1080i to his house and 480i to everyone else's house. Everyone gets the same feed from the satellite, the receiver determines what to do with it.
What about live action movies that depict actors over the age of 18 portraying minors in sexually explicit scenes. American Pie comes to mind. There are several nude scenes involving characters who are in high school. How would this be affected?
This site specializes in almost silent power supplies and processor fans. I've got several in my various systems, and I can personally vouch that they're all that they claim and more.
Look at it this way: Would you rather have a dozen Crusoe boxes humming away in your server closet, or one P3 workstation doing the same amount of work. Their low power/low heat argument is moot because in order to obtain the kinds of processing power you'd need to run a server, you'd need to have several times the number of Crusoe's as you would need Alphas or P3's. Not only would the power consumption/heat generated be similar, but I would imagine a 100 Crusoe machine would take quite a bit more space than an 8 way or 16 way P3 machine.
How the fuck can you make a statement like that? Have you actually seen or played an X-box? Your opinion is based solely on Microsoft's own marketing/propaganda machine. I have nothing against Microsoft, and I would imagine that the X-box will be a strong competitor when it is released, but your opinion is utter BS. Get a clue, moron!
Don't you think we should figure out how to run our own planet first before we go out and maim and pollute all the other planets. I'm not arguing that space exploration or colonization is a bad idea. In fact, I think it's Man's destiny to spread thoughout the universe, but we have to figure out how to do that without destroying the universe in the process.
I'm sure all the starving children in Africa will be happy to know that they're going to die for a good cause. I mean as long as Joe Sixpack gets a new set of metal golf clubs that let him drive an extra 20 yards, who cares about the human lives that were sacrificed for it. It's good to see you've got your priorities straight.
Sure you can watch a TV image on a monitor. I like to watch a TV in a small window while doing other work on the PC. Check out this site for some pretty cheap PCI and USB TV tuners with A/V and coax inputs.

Of course Taco doesn't have much room to talk considering his website goes down for a few hours every couple of days due to problems with Exodus.net.

Your sig is also remarkably on-topic for this story.
hey that's my stapler... he stole my stapler... excuse me,... i paid for that... please give it back ..*mumble mumble*... burn the building down...
Just because you can't figure out how to properly install Quicktime, doesn't mean it isn't a viable alternative for others.
In the US, breasts are considered sexually explicit.

You can replace "An Anonymous CTO" with "CmdrTaco" and the article still makes sense. Try it yourself!
Please show me the math whereby you worked out $14,000,000,000 == food for 10 kids.

If the article was about the military, I would.
