and on a mobile device, then on a virtual machine on a mobile device, then on the internet, then in the cloud(public cloud privet and hybrid) i wonder if we could modify the corporate buzzword bullshit generator to file patents applications... (this idea is patent pending)
At the rate youtube is expanding the electrons in this universe may soon vanish. Could data become so dense that a black hole is formed?
well maybe... Data=Knowledge, Knowledge=Power, Power=Energy, Energy=(Mass*SpeedOfLight)^2:. Data=(Mass*SpeedOfLight)^2 assuming 1 bit it the basic unit of data, r=2gm/c^2 == (r(c^2))/g=m d=mc^2 == d/c^2=m (r(c^2))/g=d/c^2 dg=c^2 r(c^2)
as i understand it the original idea was to have the humans act like processing units but that was thought to be to confusing for the masses so they changed it to people as batteries. I think this make more since, as the human brain is a massively more powerful than any of our current computers is thought to be able to store anywhere frome 1Tb to 2.5 Pb, is much smaller, produce very little in the way of waste heat and requires very little power to run. i mean really why would you use people as batteries we produce very little in the way of electricity and heat and it take much more energy to maintain a human then they would ever generate as a power source.
This isn't really true, since Hangouts are built on open web protocols with support in Firefox and Chrome (and presumably Safari and IE once they catch up). There's no need for any IM-specific protocol "lockin" when you have general-purpose communication protocols available on the open web. XMPP is old.
They did in fact create a system that puts out more instantaneous energy per unit weight, but that is not the improvement that super capacitors need. They have improved gravimetric power density. The two measures that need improvement to make super capacitors more useful are gravimetric energy density (how much energy can it store in a given weight), and volumetric energy density. How much energy can it store in a given volume. Without significant improvements in those two areas, super capacitors cannot make significant inroads against batteries.
It should also be noted that super capacitors already have better power density than chemical batteries by a wide margin, and are more than sufficient to replace I.C. engines and gasoline in that respect.
Yes but do they have the correct price to manufacture to beat internal combustion; and is it scalable; how much will it cost to shove out a 100 million super capacitor powered cars; do we currently have the supply of materials needed to supply the automotive industry; How much will the patent licensing cost? The patents of internal combustion have expired decades ago. Then you have the cost of building a power distribution infrastructure, charging stations, power transportation (improvement to the power grid) massively increase the power generation capacity of country (with internal combustion each vehicle is a self contained generator now the power for all of those vehicles will have to be made somewhere so now you will either have to build more dams, nuclear, or fossil fuel, as renewable does not have the energy output needed without taking up massive amounts of land. (Not everywhere has the enough consistent wind for wind-power or sun for needed energy level of the millions of cars in use so we would have to fill all of the areas that do and people are already complaining about windmills "ruining their view" and organizing NIMBY groups same as they did with nuclear.)) Then you have to convince all of the vehicle manufacturers to use they same power port - think cellphones where we have dozens of chargers because no one wants to use the same one for two devices. gasoline has a relatively low cost per joule easily established infrastructure very few patent and ip concerns and dozens of other reasons it sadly won't go anywhere anytime soon.
They can't just dump Metro - there's a complete ecosystem of apps dependent on it. It's very small, but it's not like they can abandon it. That would be like Apple just discontinuing the entire iOS line and saying "Sorry, your iDevices are useless."
It is far more likely than you think, they have already killed zune, they killed all of those windows phone 7's saying to their customers "yeah our bad you won't be able to update the phone you just bought sucks to be you." Oh and then there was the playforsure debacle. They pushed silverlight and have now nearly abandoned development of it. So Microsoft could throw framework/interface formally known as metro to the wolves on a whim at anytime they want and it would just be par for the course.
theres a reason i try to avoid eating pork, i mean i have seen people farm pigs. Some of my friends have said well have you ever seen the way cows live, yes i have i lived for a number of years across the road from a herd of cows being grown for meat they are much cleaner.
you mean like the complex being built by the NSA in the Utah desert. good luck finding stats on that if you do look forward to a visit by the black helicopters and SUV's.
so even if they have all domain names taken away they will still have an onion site and good luck trying to hunt that down. then there is freenet and i2p. then there are the smaller/newer/experiemnetal darknets like Netsukuku GNUnet anoNet RetroShare OneSwarm. And even if p2p fails there is the good old Sneakernet. Ideally then we would all just switch to using double public key encryption par files and distribute thing f2f via whatever system you want to share files dropbox ftps pasetbin email irc/xmpp file sharing bots. they wont be able to stop you from sharing bits as long as there is portable storage or the internet remains a two way pipe.
They could sell it to the rest of the country or give the electricity to the people to Washington state for free to compensate them for making them deal with their shitty hazardous waste storage system and refusing to processes it for decades while it eats through the containment vessels, all because its politically not nice to talk about nuclear waste handling and might make the the greeners unhappy.
theres more there than just nuclear waste, it more or less became the government dumping ground for anything highly dangerous they had but didn't want bother to deposing of properly, so there are vats filled with coroded canisters of things like nerve gas. We really need to do something about that place, at this point it would probably be safer and cheaper to build a new complex then keep trying to patch every leak and hanford.
I'd like to believe that, but what I've seen over the last bunch of years says that the copyright and media groups are winning the battle, and lawmakers are all too willing to give them what they want.
Between the DMCA, seemingly indefinite copyrights, and everything else, I don't see how we're going to make this inevitable.
It's beginning to look more like a world where the media companies control everything is inevitable.
that the thing though if they waited it would get no attention from the community and being open source the community are the developers. On the other hand though this is just another attempt to make ubuntu-phone Frankenstein that will never pan out. remember ubuntu mobile (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Mobile) and there was ubuntu moblin remix. oh and don't forget the aborted ubuntu android compatibility layer meant to run android binaries on top of ubuntu then a few months latter they about-face and try to run ubuntu on top of android. If we could every get a free/opensource tablet with drivers in the mainline kernal and a gnu/linux and desent specs i would stand in line for it, but until then i will have to be content with android
You really have no idea how bullets work, do you? The metal casings are for the bullets, not the guns. If you attempt to make a bullet with a plastic casing (you can't buy them), it will fail on the first shot. Not the second shot, not the third, the first. If you use plastic casings on a bullet, it will explode and you will fail. No debate.
Microsoft bought Nook up when Barns & Noble stood up to them saying take it to court of bugger off. So rather then risk loosing in court and in turn having all of the android device manufacturers turning on them, they tried to save face and "partnered" with Barns and Noble, who being primarily book sellers not tech people weren't familiar with the Microsoft motto "embrace extend extinguish".

Energy=(Mass*SpeedOfLight)^2
assuming 1 bit it the basic unit of data,
r=2gm/c^2 == (r(c^2))/g=m

(r(c^2))/g=d/c^2

I'd still wait for Windows 8.11 for workgroups. Maybe they'll add a proper command line and support x forwarding natively.
Microsoft will add native x forwarding to windows shortly after the devil^W^W Balmer ice skates to work

yes but those are made to be fired in metal guns.
