With my bluetooth keyboard and a USB monitor it has replaced my smaller laptop. (But not my serious laptop for when I need a lot of cycles.)
And it gets 2 bars more signal than my aircard.
And it makes phone calls and fits in my pocket.
IF this spells the death of the It's-your-ip-so-that-means-you-did-it argument, then I can see Tor exit-node hosting becoming a lot more popular in the USA.
On the other hand, if it is not, then...
A lifetime of violence and rude social interaction taught to us by a glowing tube. When we type on that glowing tube we type into that environment; our flame-wars pale in comparison to most 30-minute interactions we use as models for tube social interaction.
And because we can get away with it.
Slashdotters are right - it must be ok to waste power because:
1) It's less than other power we are consuming (or wasting?)
2) it's in the name of progress
3) It's not us who are wasting it
This is the same thinking that says that if you have a million dollars, it's ok to just thow $100k in the garbage can.
Thank G*d slash-dotters don't run the world. Stick to writing code and keep your opinions out of saving the planet, because there wouldn't be one for you to code in if we listened too closely to your my-math=your-reality reasoning.
Maybe Slashdot needs an algorithm to allow people to post.
Perhaps it should go something like this...
- do they stay on-topic?
- do they understand the concept?
- do they contribute useful information?
Never mind, that algorithm would never fly here....
Finally, good-by to the megalomaniac control freak who single-handedly made crippled computers with sleek styling and lame-o "apps" the must--haves of the 21st century. Ugh. He's the Andy Warhol of the computer industry. The joke's on the (m)asses who proclaim him great. He has degraded the importance and value of interoperability, co-operation on standards and real openness. Now we can get back to working together on standards and all pulling in the same direction and for pete's sake not ripping people off for what they are getting both hardware and software-wise. Good-bye to Steve; welcome back to common sense and diplomatic relations in the popular computer industry.
it's for the lulz. they do it BECAUSE it's dangerous. same as jumping out of a plane - it's dangerous, and if ur smart u can keep doing it. Erog, it's proof of elite intelligence, with bragging rights, et al. Tarzans beating their chests, 2011-style. Blame it on testosterone, and addicting adrenaline rushes.
This is the first stage of an insidious invasion by which all of earth is threatened with ultimate destruction. These creatures are from another world. We cannot stop them. We are helpless. We must capture one. That is the onlyway we can learn about them.

Vouge. Let your body go with the flow. Don't just stand there, let's get to it Strike a pose, there's nothing to it.

You can't catch a fictitious enemy. Watch Loose Change on youtube - that will tell you who we should catch.

What I hear is "It's a good idea, until I have to post my own information."
