Have you noticed that anyone the government doesn't like gets either a kiddie porn charge or a rape charge thrown against them? Meanwhile actual government contractors get away with rape, human trafficking and actual kiddie-porn & pedophilia with no consequences (DynCorp, Haliburton).
The US government is very, very corrupt and run by some nasty-ass evil fucks. And I don't mean the "elected" officials, I mean the lobbyists who really run things.
I'm sure this is the same type of officer who pulls people over for the crime of "Driving While Black". Here in NJ, I see it all the time, usually with THREE cop cars to pull over one dude in a toyota.
But with a laptop, smartphone and internet access? Seriously? What this guy needs to do is get the hell out of Florida and into a state with an economy where he can get a job. Probably the only reason he's unemployed is Florida. Maybe he just wants to surf all day rather than spend time in the office. Somehow I'm doubting that a homeless man has all these digital toys, yet, didn't give those up to avoid being "homeless".
Someone's being scammed here, and it's us Slashdot readers for even believing ONE WORD in this story. What's next, this homeless man gets his own reality TV series?
Soldiers became attached to their Jeeps during WWII, so much so that they would cry when the vehicle was destroyed in combat. This kind of thing with the robots is very common and can happen with anything and anyone -- it says less about the robot, and more about the need for companionship during a dangerous time.
Seriously. How much time and money has been wasted constantly trying to re-invent something we had in the mid-60's? The X-15 program was *very* successful, with only one serious accident *and* there was a version with drop tanks for greater range/speed. If they had simply continued this line of development instead of stopping everything to put a man in a tin-can on top of a missile, we'd already be going to space casually, for weekend trips and vacations.
If someone started doing this; they should start with larger, more dangerous targets, like the executives of Goldman Sachs, who've basically stolen 7 trillion from the American people.
Just wait until this individual attempts to travel in the near future. If you phone the NSA and acknowledge that they have your email, they will retaliate.
After all, the government right now is persecuting a "leaker" who they "claim" is lying because after all, they swore up and down that they weren't reading email and listening to phone calls of average Americans. And the government wouldn't LIE, now would they? So the leaker has to be wrong. And yet, they pursue him like he has some relevant information that can cause damage.
Wait wait... You just made a computer analogy for a car issue. This is a complete reversal of Slashdot policy. I'm afraid your userID will have to be suspended.
Or known is the USA as "Five Million Years to Earth", had this plot although a little more "out there" -- but it essentially claimed that we were all descended from Martians. They came here in a spaceship and integrated their DNA into the indigenous life-forms and presto, that's where we came from.
BTW: If you've never seen this film, it scared the crap out of me as a kid. I didn't sleep for a week. It still sends chills down my spine.
All these cars will religiously follow the speed limit, boxing up roads and not permitting those of us who are in a rush to get around them. The road rage will cause accidents, I guarantee that.
But they are all Russian COBOL programmers. But trust me when I say the financial industry has more than you realize -- they just ain't in Silicon Valley, they are in Wall Street.
During one of the presidential debates, Mitt Romney named Tesla a failure, and claimed that the loan given to Tesla by the DOE was a waste of taxpayer money. This drove the stock down to $25 per share. I wish I'd bought then, because that stock is now around $140 per share, and climbing.
If I am a band and I decide to distribute my music free to anyone that wants it, it's still copyright "my band", but apparently free to distribute. I've given users on the internet an implied license to download and use.
I cannot turn around later and start suing people who downloaded my music.
So, if you are the copyright holder of a porn movie and you set up a honeypot to sue people, your act of uploading the movie creates an implied license for others to download and use.
Therefore you should NOT be able to sue. It seems to me that copyright holders want it both ways; to be able to freely distribute and freely sue anyone they want, whenever they want.
But the real irony is that; once it's on the internet, the NSA has a copy, and good luck trying to sue those guys...
Never mind the submitter, or Slashdot for even carrying this story. Mod the Original Article as flamebait. Whoever even bothered to write the article in the first place needs to lose his license to write tech journalism. Author is clueless. Sure, *pay-for* unixes are dying. HOWEVER, Free/Open Source Unixes are thriving.
Dude!!! That's the same episode with the Cheese Shop Sketch, the greatest bit of funniness since the Ministry of Silly Walks. I love the Cheese Shop Sketch! That should never be banned since it's one of the finest moments of television ever made.
Why isn't the entire Republican party standing up for this provider, telling government to get out of the way of business? He built that! Now, if he's been a multi-trillion dollar bank, the government would leave him alone, hell, he'd be telling the government what to do.
This is just another example of "might makes right, we're a bully, and we're going to push the world around, usa #1 F-yeah!"
We are living in a police state; there's no doubt about that at this point.
Actually, it's the ones too afraid to talk to girls that I'm most scared of. Sooner or later, one of them will decide that after being a virgin for 50 years, he has nothing to live for and will blow himself up and take out a lot of people with him.
He will feel that he's been wronged by society, and maybe he'll decide also that his life was ruined in high school by jocks, so, maybe he'll walk into a crowded gym and blow it up.
Which are fascist, traitorous, nationalistic power-fetishists who only view the opposite sex as tools or sex toys. Power in D.C. attracts a lot of arm-candy and those people get used to that very quickly.
Headed for the bunker with your bugout bag and your rifle.
Yeppers, I remember "cheaper than dirt" selling all kinds of crap for the Y2K apocalypse, and then there was the coming Rapture, and then the Mayan apocalypse.
I'm sure there were a few more end of the world scenarios I missed, but seriously, the end of the world seems to happen about every 2 years.

Fortunately; Star Trek shows us how exactly to defeat killer robots or computers of any kind. You simply make them explode using illogical arguments.
Captain Kirk: "Everything Harry Mudd says is a lie"
Mudd : "Now listen carefully. I'm lying"
Captain Kirk: "You've murdered hundreds of men"
M5 : "Murder is contrary to the laws of man and God."
And if that doesn't work, try the Chewbacca Defense!

Why is it so hard to accept that human beings evolved from goo? Have you looked inside a human body? Dude, we're *still* goo!

Isreal shares with Russia, Germany, Romania and China.
And anyone else with money.
In fact *everyone* has your information EXCEPT YOU.
Land of the free (snicker)
I think it's time for torches and pitchforks, we the people are being royally screwed by our amoral treasonous government.
Sounds like he's under a lot of stress. I wonder if there's something *outside* the realm of kernel development that's causing him to lose it.

Isn't this *everyone's* rating on eBay, and yet eBay is 99% populated by crooks at this point?
