  3. Re:Tex Richman won't allow it. on Gas Powered Fuel Cell Could Help EV Range Anxiety · · Score: 3, Insightful

    The problem is that the energy and even automotive manufacturing industry don't want the yoke taken off until the last minute. Why do you think there was such a push for ethanol and hyrdrogen fuel cells? Both of those still need you to fill up at a pump. Electric cars would be able to use a wide variety of energy sources as long as the end result was electric potential. This breaks your dependency on the industry for fuel, which they don't want.

  13. Re:Honest question on Book Review: Head First HTML5 Programming · · Score: 1, Troll

    I'm off books completely. I just use people's code snippets and tutorials. I understand programming at this point so all I'm really picking up is syntax and idiosyncracies.

    That is what I call the negative future, where we become self absorbed and rot planet side and die off without ever leaving the solar system.

    That's the two criteria for a government technology project. This one is pure gold as far as they're concerned.

  19. Fine then on Using a Tablet As Your Primary Computer · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Personal Computers aren't a jack of all trades and a master of none. They are a master of freedom and convertibility, the ability to do whatever you want. Enjoy your tablet, I'm not sure I could.

    Vote with your wallet. If you're really against big media don't consume their products*. There's tons of high quality CC licensed, and independently produced, media out there. Otherwise quit your bitching.

    *That doesn't mean you can pirate them. Consuming them anyway without paying isn't a protest.

    The only thing America manufactures any more is Intellectual Property. They needed to act to save Americas only remaining industry.

    I agree that the Korean sites were in the wrong and should have been taken down, but is ICE really the right group to do this crap? Isn't there some kind of international thing that should be handling this?
