I would totally request keeping it after the olympics if it was on my house. That or wrap a huuuuge air conditioning chassis around it and then when they come back and are like "hmmm, guess we didn't put one here like the notes say" then tada, SAM on my roof, bitches lol.
and yet they won't let you "gift" yourself your own music library if your hard drive fails and it was improperly backed up. I know people who that happened to and honestly, if I used iTunes, I would have purposely not backed up my music because I would have assumed it could be redownloaded later if anything happened to it. Maybe they should implement that feature before they start letting people gift songs to each other. Although, I bring this up because I smell an exploit. Lost your library? Gift all your licenses to someone you know then have them immediately gift it back. You could obviously logically redownload them since they'd be an incoming gift that's not in your library.
Burning a CD from iTunes strips the DRM so why wouldn't people simply "gift" them a CD and keep the original? lol. Knowing them, they'll find a way to DRM that up too.
Oh, I already passed a bill for that too...by not having a facebook account. Seriously, half my tech friends don't have one because of the massive privacy, functionality safety, security, and annoyance factors. I thought we were already in the age where anyone with a brain doesn't have an account. In fact, if anyone is stupid enough to post a bunch of racist crap and them partying and drinking and mug shots of them in prison, they probably shouldn't get the job. That said, NOBODY is getting my password for anything ever so maybe they should expand it to that.
Yeah, that or Apple's 20 billion dollars they have sitting around with nothing to do with. Seriously, with the monetary exchange rate, they could probably buy each worker a house and a butler let alone some food and more transportation.
I bullshit you not, chi b star. So....chibi star:-P And it looks like an anime kind of name too lol. Xi = Chi in greek or whatever btw.
P.S aww crap, I'm mildly alergic to latex. Now I'm going to get all itchy after reading that post without knowing it. Ugh!
Oh no, not chibi star lol. As if it didn't already look enough like some 12 year old's username from an anime MMORPG or something, they had to made it be pronounced chibi?:-P (btw chibi = huge head, huge eyes, small body in anime).
They should have just named it "Steve" or something.
I would fucking kill that dumb bitch. I mean how arrogant and clueless do you have to be to potentially get exposed to some foreign disease then show symptoms yourself then get on a plane. Everyone with a brain knows that's not a good idea and usually illegal. She's lucky it didn't turn out to be monkey pox.
for water, air, and even precious metals in the next few years
I'm pretty certain that 2 of those can be mined fairly easily down here on Earth, lol. By the way, I would find a self sustaining, non-connected to the surface, geothermal powered drilling robot that would retrieve basketball-sized diamonds from miles below the Earth's crust if they're doing this for a profit. That seems a lot safer and easier.
You seem to be forgetting the case of dark matter. 1 + number I guessed at = 3? MUST BE MAGICAL INVISIBLE MATTER!!!!!
Here's my meta-proof for that theorem above: math error = funding cut, magical invisible matter = money and show.
This stinks of a coporate cover up. They don't want you to know this but it was actually a Toyota Prius with a hybrid nuclear/tachyon engine that accelerated out of control in the year 2052 due to a software glitch and traveled back in time and...well you can pretty much put the rest together.
I did a study at work to see if we should put PCs to sleep overnight for cost purposes and it turns out even our original Pentium 4 computers only drew 3-5 watts in sleep mode so no, totally not worth it. 24/7/365 of sleep time would = $4.41 in electricity.
So not only do they continue to attempt to live in a place that doesn't support human life but now they might screw with a water supply that's millions of years old. That sounds like a good idea.
If I understand ion thrusters correctly (that's a big if), a big tank of neutral atoms are bombarded by electrons to knock other electrons out of orbit around those atoms, creating positive particles, which are electrostatically accelerated out a big metal screen thing and the motion of them going the opposite way makes your spaceship go the correct way.
I believe thermal radiation in this article's context means heat being turned into infrared light, that means photons going the opposite direction can have a noticeable impact on an existing spaceship in a real world text over a relatively short distance in space. I would think a gigantic atom nucleus has thousands of times more mass than a photon so ion thrusters would be pretty effective over time. Now of course the opposite "kick back" reaction is proportionate to the amount of energy you're putting into the ions and their speed is ohhhhh just a hair slower than a photon (lol) but at least we can say the theory should work in real space based on this experience.
All they'd have to do is make a static memory system where every time you reboot, it's reset to default with nothing saved. Then store the config file in a dynamic location and limit what goes there and there goes 99% of their problems. If they simply model if after the software Deep Freeze or just a live linux CD type environment where everything goes bye bye when the power is lost, that would work just fine. Of course rogue firmware flashes would be a problem but those aren't terribly hard to secure pretty well either.
I didn't consider mac users lording their "super advanced security and magical virus immunity" as "good times." It's about time someone reminded them that Windows is far more secure, it's just targetted more. This is going to be the beginning of a long line of taking them down a notch.
There are push button starters with proximity RFID crap and all that other nonsense getting in the way of your idea to simply turn off the car. I don't think even my 2000 Mercury Cougar turns completely off unless it's in park. It at least won't let you take the key out, I know that. But what I was wondering is why don't these idiots shift into neutral? Yes, You'd hit 10k RPM and melt your engine but you wouldn't hit something at 82* at least. (*That's a correction from a post above me, the 911 call from a Prius owner claimed after 15 minutes he was going 82 MPH. Considering what state he was driving in, people might have been passing him lol)
What they're really saying is if you want to broadcast Fox in your town form your tower, you pay them a whole bunch of money to license the content. So yeah, it pretty much is illegal what they're doing. But, if they were smart, they'd invent a compact digital TV antenna and attach it to a digitizer like those cheap composite to USB converters from Kworld and Hauppauge and as long as you're in range of a broadcast, you can get it on your tablet, netbook, or laptop. Then you don't kill your data plan limit either.
As soon as it's stores on a computer in 0's and 1's, I can steal it. The end. I'm not even a hacker, I repair computers. That's why bitcoin is fundamentally flawed. You don't need a getaway car and laundering to flip some 0's and 1's and change ownership of something or steal a digital decryption key that represents money. It's just stupid. If anything, they need better plastic-based holographic physical money.
Is this some sort of attempt to raise ill will about that unspeakably awful, unscalable, hellish nightmare of an interface before Windows 8 comes out? Because that's the only logical solution I can see. That interface is a Vista-Millenium Edition hybrid of every-other war crimes that Microsoft puts together and the fundamental design behind has been proven to not even work in betas. I mean the base level of functionality doesn't even perform computing tasks. WHY would anyone want that on their android device?
Oh, that sort of reminds me. This wasn't in the "noisy" path area or whatever they call it. I live right down the street and we very rarely hear planes landing. They come from almost 90 degrees different from this area.

Forget breast feeding. If our ancestors were vegans and thus cared about animals feelings and were too "nice" to eat them, we'd all be toast as well.
What a load of bullshit. 10.8 TWH = 10,800,000 KWh @ my local rate (which is fairly average) of $0.126/KWH = $1,360,800, not billions.

You're right. I myself was wondering...have they ever actually had a successful launch of anything ever? Does anyone know?

I think we should take anyone who constantly complains about America's politicians and laws and send them over to Mumbai.

But...how would it detect Dance Dance Revolution? My guess would be as an intruder having a heart attack.
