> he would be fine... he was not fine once he learned it was stolen
Pablo Antonio: It was a very sad moment. He was really distressed. He started yelling and punching himself in the head. He was worried because he had to be in Brazil soon, and he wouldn’t make it without his passport and all. And, apparently, his notebook was stolen too, and he said he wouldn’t be able to work for a week or so because of that.
That's exactly why they are trying to save the day by painting their controller black and appease to the "mature games" players, but that turf is already taken by Sony and Microsoft's consoles.
If there was a bad weather they might have prefered to ditch to the lagoon, jump off the plane... that would have saved the plane from tidal/reef disaster you are writting about.
The crash island is just a few hundred miles next to the target island. A proper investigation would try to visit the uninhabited islands within some range of the plane's fly path. 70 years later the US Navy is reinvestigating, maybe they feel they neglected something..
At least the bitch removed the infringing picture, now she is steering even/. to her cause, acting stupid might get her into the spotlight after all. Nobody was visiting that poor half-stolen site of hers, now they do! Unfortunatelly for her, it is not the crowd she was after.
Always surprised how many people use ton of spaghetti code to deploy a simple GET replier (aka the web server). Take the security implications of running megabytes of mostly unknown 3rd party server-side code and services. Best of luck using those "frameworks".
ZFS stands for Zombie FS, an outdated disk management bloat of last century "enhancements" for spinning drives. ZFS fancy features only contribute to more unnecessary disk writes that are killing my modern SSD. A current SSD drive has it's own hardware level management, there is no need to keep some nasty write, log, index, trace, journal -- the write-happy file systems around, actually the plain old FAT32 is kinda rock solid compared to for example NTFS, the current #1 SSD assassin.
This whole "Apple game console" thing is really getting funnier.., Jobs biography says (as the other guy in this thread is pointing out) that Jobs he was responsible for coming up with the molded plastic case of the Apple Pippin game console.
You can't probably get any closer to some "hands on" industrial design then that.

> good example of the system works and learning from past mistakes
That only proves the system doesn't work and they haven't learned enough. What they need is a proper and reliable SSTO (single stage to orbit) space craft, some pioneering work in progress. These SpaceX stunts are equivalent of the old days, when you could cross the Atlantic using a wooden bi-plane with a prop, but it was a huge stunt. Then the jet engine came and everything has changed. These space cowboys are just that, no real viable technology, but an old "space bi-plane" and millions of dollars to burn.
Awsome kind of frankenstein technology! But something tells me that regenerative medicine (simply regrow your own retina from your own genetic material) is much better if not the only right research direction to approach here.
Interestingly, in crazy Europe, they have nuclear reactors inside major cities too, and without much controversy or resistance. Most people there do not even know they live a few hundred meters from a potential nuclear ground zero:
Woz is the true and only founder of Apple. He single handedly enabled them, he alone made Apple 1 computer in his garage. He started it all, if it was not for Woz and his early efforts, Jobs would be selling used cars or something...
Therefore Woz >> Jobs.
Also it is well known fact that Jobs just copied Sony, after Apple nearly exited the market at around 1998, Jobs in desperation copied Sony products (Sony was totaly dominating the market at the time), from Apple Pippin (PlayStation), iPod (Walkman), Apple stores (Sony Style stores), App stores/Walled garden (PlayStation store).. everything predates Jobs' efforts.
There is the NTFS logging and other stuff like the indexing that is written all the time... you read/write something and bang, NTFS writes a log about it, tries to auto defragment it, makes a failsave copy, indexes it, writes to the register, to the system log and who knows where about it... happily wearing my SSD in the process.
sometime in the future, some of your storage device will fail
SSD? Sure. NTFS has such a vibrant disk activity life, it is amazing. I mean, how is it even possible to constantly write something to the drive, like every second, all the time, even during idle. There is a huge gap for improvement. The current NTFS behaviour can only be called a calamity.
Ok, who would you delegate the oversight/police work over to? United States still has less corruption then most of other options. If you are so offended, in the US, you can sue the agency or the government and get your mistakenly seized domain back, plus $ damages. Lawyers actually love these kind of bad-government suits. Now, would that alternative solution you are proposing have such safeguards? In some decentralized internet utopia, the real mafias would run the place, there would be no authority to call or ability to challenge the subject in a fair trial.
Free energy? "Electrocatalyst", you also need to plug some electric juice to split the water, and the process is "under unity" efficient, that's for sure.
Exactly the opposite, the porting effort is easy, the important thing is that the developer is able to control and decide what appstore/device to deploy on. For example to strike an exclusive deal with a dedicated platform. Shared app spaces are dangerous things. Oh, remember those poor Java devs whose apps are deployed by Chinese without authorization because Java is so freaking copy prone, exploitable and portable. App owner has to be able to control the fate of his app not some 3rd party for him, the less portable the app is the better, more fragmentation and more appstores the better (less incentive for snake app pimps and aggregators to steal your app and redeploy elsewhere).
Also not everybody is happy to see his application choked inside some jackass browser environment.
As for the capitalism, it is not capitalism, but evolution, an app evolution that is fueled by some monetary incentive, but you can always go back and embrace the old, the not evolving, the boring and stagnant apt-get Linux free app delivery.

Battery life will improve, tasks will get done faster, CPU can idle more.

Well, looking at the satellite map, could this object be the crashed double motor plane in the lagoon?
