Petro chmicals? Refinereries? If so then there are many more side effects to look at.
More like any organic matter and fire. You burn wood and you will get it. All graphene is, is graphite like in a pencil. it is one individual layer of pure graphite. it ocurs naturally all over.
Really they don't plan to use it a giant space based death that could easily be pointed at North Korea, Shanghai, no its just to beam a metric shit-ton of power to them really, oh the on board missiles and armor plating are just there to keep the space junk from breaking it.
Since when has the definition of broadband been so high in the US. Last I knew it was still officially classified as anything faster than ISDN. Got 1Mbps down on your DSL link? Enjoy that sweet broadband citizen.
It seems most likely that such an impossibly high target (for US infrastructure) was purposely snuck in by industry lobbyists to make it more likely to be waived in the future.
10 mbps hahahahahahah. We pay for 7 where i live and maybe get 4mbps when it is "fast" around like 1-4 am the rest of the day it is usually around 3-2.5mbps. Our options consist of centurylink dsl or centurylink with bundle with cable. Cell signal is neither fast nor reliable (3g if the weather is good if its bad... one bar if you sit in the window sill). oh and dial up. fuck the tellaco's

My Nexus 7, in a cheap fake-leather cover, HAS withstood greater drops, and almost two years later, still has more battery time.
My kindle fire 1st gen in its canvas & faux leather over cardboard case survived flying of the roof of my car at 50 miles an hour. I was amazed it still works fine though.
It's 2014 why is it so hard to have a wireless router that needs a reboot every couple of days that can't just fucking reboot itself?
Its 2014 why does it still need to reboot every few day damn it. The fucker shouldn't be unstable. Especially when I can build one for less money with a raspberry pi and a a usb wifi dongle for what $50
So, we're becoming Wall Street. nice, I can't wait for my million dollar bonus!
Unfortunate IT is considered a "cost center" (I would like to see their operating expences for running the same company without a computer system) so you will be more likely to have you job offshore.
Just load OpenWRT or some other open source firmware, problem solved.
What do you mean there isn't a port for your hardware? Why did you buy it in the first place? Throw it away (or donate it to someone who can do the port) and buy something that has been ported.
NEVER buy hardware without a open source port at least in progress.. You have been warned!
Except, of course, open source code also contains horrific security vulnerabilities.
as is the propriatry we just got board of yelling about them years ago.
And every building built on this planet contains defects. Every bridge built on this planet contains defects. It is impossible to build a building or bridge without there being a defect. Almost all the the defects are insignificant. The difference between Software and Civil Engineering that small defects don't usually bring the whole construction down whereas the smallest defect in a piece of software often have catastrophic effects.
Additionally while every physical construct has faults very few have people actively trying to exploit them trying to blow everything up, compare that to something like openssl with its resent major exploit. There are hundreds of millions of identical copies and thousands of people looking to exploit them and once exploited all are vulnerable. If every bridge had thousands of people trying to blow it up everyday we would not hold the architect/engineer responsible for someone managing to destroy it eventually.
Your compassion is overwhelming. What is it like, not being able to feel the suffering of others? Do you think that when you pretend to care about people around you, that they believe you?

I conjecture the better question is do they taste good with a side of sauteed onions and peppers?
we are that is unless you see monkeys smelting iron tools or dolphins living in skyscrapers or lab rats reading war and peace, whales flying to low earth orbit.
It is easy to see that some animals have some rudimentary intelligence like being able to tell the difference between small bowl of food and big bowl of food, but you would be a moron to not see that we are light-years past them in almost any cognitive test we can devise. Call me when a chimp wins game of chess against any human that has played more than once.
Simple people come to Slashdot for the community comments unfortunately the stories that are discussed have gone down hil., Soylent news hasn't been able to attract the/. community because the community isn't there even though the stories are generally better, it is a network effect problem its the same reason everyone has a Facebook account even though they hate it and acknowledge other sites like Google plus are superior but no one is there. What it will take to cause mass exodus is a massive sudden fuck you to the users. Slashdot almost reached that point when they pushed out beta thats why Soylent was started if they kill classic I could see a migration happen other than that we will all sit here and bitch about it ad nausium.
But people are reacting because the Google glasses bring another dimension to this, when you get a lot of people that are potentially constantly filming you and uploading it to a massive data-aggregator with immense capabilities to correlate data and track people.
that keeps being repeted but it is bullshit, it does not have enough battery life to be constantly filming and the bandwidth requirements needed to upload hd video to google data centers would cost far to much to be doable even if anyone wanted to.
From what I've seen, and experienced myself growing up, it seems that if your kid is the type who might be bullied, sending him to private (or maybe religious) school is an absolute must. Private schools don't seem to tolerate it, or have as much of a problem with it. They have no trouble expelling problem kids, and they don't accept just anyone.
As long as the princeples kid and his best freind are not the one doing the bullying yeah that was a fun year. Not all privet schools stop bullying.
The surprise is the number of users today who are screaming "Da fuq? Teh Intuit iz de DEVIL!!!!" who were all of yesterday shrugging off Google's lobbying juggernaut as "just playing the game."
Well, it's not a surprise but it still sucks an ass how Slashdot marches in lockstep to their latest fanboy crush. For people saying how cheep it is to own a politician it seems that most Slashdotters are willing to be bought off for a lot less.
The difference is Google is lobbying to do things that don't dirrectly affect my bank ballence. Additionally many things Google is pushing for actully are in the general intrest like net nutrality.

Big Bang Theory is like blackface comedy. It's not for nerds, but for people who want to laugh at nerds.
yes because it is never a good thing to laugh at ones self
Off if in a moving vehicle.
sucks to be a passenger then.

Sure do that if you want to break the whole fucking internet overnight.
When the police officers pulled the driver over, they smelled marijuana. That gave them probable cause, which allows them to search without consent.
Which is why many of the potheads i know keep a can or fabreeze air freshener in their cars

Umm... I have to wonder, if you replace everything about a tool over time, is it still the same tool?

its all ready is open sourced and that is what the soylent news guys did but the community didn't fallow.

yes but they would not necessarily be able to patch the closed code
well even if it justs sets in you account you come out ahead thanks to intrest
