Buy your 3D-printed drone using Bitcoin and control it with this new open-source Android app via a wi-fi connected Arduino to spy on your Facebook friends while wearing a tin hat to prevent Google from making you buy the latest teen pop album sold on iTunes.
Of course. You use the rock to smash him in the head while he tries to stab you with the scissors. Your friend then uses the paper to write a letter to your parents about how you died in a stupid fight about statistics.
Facebook owns virtually all the aspects of the social experience—photos (Instagram), status updates (Facebook), location services (Places).
That's funny, I don't use any of these services, yet I have a very social Web experience. I hang in places where people with the same hobbies hang out and it's great. It's called forums.
I never said it would fail on its own as a device, I said it would fail on the points I listed, the third point being the most important if it's not intended for the mass market.
If it's not intended for the masses, then it's going to fail on all important points:
- it will be bigger/thicker than current all-in-one phones because each module will be its own box with its own case and you need space for the magnets and inter-modular connections - it means it will cost even more than current all-in-one phones - it means it won't get manufactured in enough quantities to make a difference in the waste produced by all-in-one phones

I suppose it is tempting, if the only tool you have is a 3D-printed hammer, to treat everything as if it were a 3D-printed nail.
Not sure if trolling or never heard about RepRap.
I'll remove "Data In, Garbage Out" from my features list.
I can easily create an encryption system that is unbreakable. You just won't be able to get your data back.
The keyword here is nearly, which means it can be broken.
What do they think about Apple computers?
Even better, how come nobody ever thought about using "Sonboard"?

Constitution? States? You believe everyone who posts on Slashdot lives in the USA?
Sign here to be bound by terms we can change any time.
How can that be legal?

They could make a new movie with Sean Connery, called The Hunt for the New World October.
My reply starts with If it's not intended for the masses, the rest of my comment is based on that assumption, which was from the parent post.
Let's all remember that Twitter starts with "Twit".
I'm gonna launch my own service, called "Idiotter".
I don't have mod points right now, but what Lumpy says is true. I'm selling the ones I have (2nd gen) before the 4th gen model comes out.
