One thing is also G Glass is only the first and not much of a first. It is just a slight step in convenience for having the camera at the ready and on. Nearly everyone has a cellphone now.
The thing a surveillance state requires two things. Mass surveillance apparatus and a single large entity behind it. What will end up with more likely is a surveillance or sousveillance society. Where cameras and recording devices are ubiquitous but control over them is not held in any single set of hands.
All night coding sessions while acceptable in start-ups are a major symptom of a business with major flaws in their development practices. Yes development can be unpredictable but if you are having employees forced to regularly stay-up you are scraping by. It might be nostalgic to say we do our best coding then, but we don't and such practices are inviting failure.
Actually adding more genes to our collective genepool probably would be a very healthy thing for our species. If we can extract ancient dna sources we might be able to make ourselves a bit more robust and the research might lead to helping make other species more robust genetically as well.
It is hardly the only constitutional out. The consitution is quite clear that the US will always pay its bills. Defaulting is unconstitutional.
Section 4. The validity of the public debt of the United States, authorized by law, including debts incurred for payment of pensions and bounties for services in suppressing insurrection or rebellion, shall not be questioned. But neither the United States nor any State shall assume or pay any debt or obligation incurred in aid of insurrection or rebellion against the United States, or any claim for the loss or emancipation of any slave; but all such debts, obligations and claims shall be held illegal and void.
If you want to follow the constitution, without adding an amendment, the US will pay its debts.
Which is often a human rights violation in and of itself. Do you have any idea how common schools are? X miles often puts these people out of fair housing. Also this is often applied to offenders whose offence had nothing to do with pedophilia and never harmed a child.
If it is a game aimed at children where children are the primary demographic then it is just as right as the rest of the law.
If it is a game for general audiances where children often play then it is a bit more worrisome.
Basically there is a big difference in banning someone from "My Little Pony Online" vs "Call of Duty Modern Bang Bang."
And if it is a game aimed primary at adults which children under a certain age shouldn't be playing then this is simple harassment because authorities don't like this population of people.
Also depends on what they are doing with that extra processing power. Are you making a game that is more intuitive? That reacts and learns better? That has AI that is more intelligent that adds to game play?
Really 30fps is the range of reasonable quality. You get a diminished return as you increase fps especially if the rest of the game doesn't perform to the same standard.
Aye. Hollywood gets their gravy from copyright abuse but their real money is still on creating new IP. Practically no one is seriously talking about removing Copyright in its entirety from the law. The main problem is the excessive terms copyright applies to and difficulty in enforcing it for the little guy.
VMware is great. Though I've mostly used Virtualbox. For most personal uses VBox does things fairly well and is free. There are several other offerings out there. Try the free ones find one you like is what I'd recommend.
I said computers can make it harder. I never said it would be easy for them to do so. I have some programming but my main career focus in Networking and IT.
Actually the US vote is about people NOT, very specifically NOT, interfacing with one another when the ballot is cast. The secret ballot where a ballot cannot be attached to a specific person after it has been cast is a fundamental part of our electoral system. It is put in there to prevent intimidation and calls to "prove" ones allegiance to a political faction by those who hold power over a vote, such as an employer.
There are examples today which show why the secret ballot is important. I recall a recent news article on an employer sending out an email to their employees that if Obama wins and taxes go up the employees will lose their jobs.
Machines if done right can make ballot stuffing and tampering much more difficult. The paper ballot is something I still agree with. I as a voter can see how I physically marked it and there is a physical artifact that must be replicated, tampered with or disposed of in order to change my vote. However not all voters are as able as I. Some lack sight and cannot see how they marked a paper ballot, and not everyone who is blind knows braille. The requirement for secret ballot means that not even a poll worker can read the ballot to someone, that person HAS to be able to interpret the ballot themselves and mark the ballot themselves, and ideally verify the ballot themselves.
Paper just doesn't meet all those requirements for all people.
There is a difference between negligence and committing a crime. The courts here are trying to decide if a crime was committed. If the owner of the network was criminally negligent then that would be a different charge than the crime itself.
The burden of proof generally rests on the accuser.
Off often isn't an option. Especially where there is the highest chances of the wi-fi being intercepted. Your idea of diligence doesn't seem to mesh with real-world practicality.
Now I'm not saying that IP address shouldn't be used, but it probably will need support with other evidence.
I didn't so much have computer classes as touch typing classes and basic business computing.
Now that isn't so bad. Touch typing is indeed a very useful skill to have and serves students well. Still some basic computing concepts and introduction to programming/networking/databases would be nice.
Not really. You have to remember what is behind that paper. A curriculum of education that a student must have gone through to get it. Yes there is cheating and falsifying the paper but it does mean that those with that paper are much more likely to have been exposed to and have picked up the information and skills the paper pertains to.

I read cyberpunk novels. Things are pretty much on course.
The key as always is what you are using the hardware for determines what type of hardware is best for you.

Yeah. They talked about this in Newton's day, Aristotle's too.

I'm still using a core2 quad and am getting by fine (GeForce 9800 gpu). Sure I don't turn the graphics full up on games but I'm doing alright.

The real issue is with the companies' data being in the cloud. Especially if Dell insists that you use their cloud with their devices.

Depends on the game.

Not to mention to mine the ore and manufacture the chips. It's all relative.

Yes Homicide is a crime, but so is negligence leading to a death. However the latter isn't the same as homicide.

I should also add that CAD courses were available in my high school but I never managed to get into them. My schedule always seemed to conflict.

They can't but their Will and inheritors can.
Just because I'm dead doesn't mean I can give the Golden Gate Bridge away in my last will and testament.
