any innovation packed its bags and walked a decade ago.
That's why F1 never really interested me: I don't want to watch a race where all the cars are the same. I would like to see a "no holds barred" race, where you could enter anything from a teenager on a skateboard with a jet pack, to the Mammoth Car.
And would be so ridiculously dangerous, you would have a death every other race. Drivers couldn't cope with the G-forces the cars could produce and crashes would be nearly always fatal.
Don't believe me? Look at F1 in the before the mid-90's. Even with a fairly restrictive ruleset, those cars were too fast with too little safety.
Anyone who thinks "any innovation packed its bags" referring to F1 obviously has not followed a season of racing. F1 greatly rewards the engineers who come up with innovative designs within the ruleset. Just look at Mercedes' split turbocharger design (which is now being adapted to road cars because it works so well).
Except when an entire password database is stolen by hackers. Then, dictionary attacks are used first. That is the exact time you want a good password: Make the dictionary attack fail and brute-force the only option.
Remember, most hack attempts don't get reported until the account information starts being used or sold.
Actually, there are quite a few american cars that he has out and out loved on the show - he refused to get out of the Ford GT when he ran it dry (supposedly) on the track, and then bought one. He drove the Lexus LFA across Nevada and loved it. He drove the Shelby Mustang GT5000 across Europe and loved it. He drove the Ford F-150 SVT Raptor across British Columbia and loved it.
Those are just a few examples from the most recent few series.
Clarkson is positive about cars he finds he likes, and he is negative about cars he finds he dislikes. Plenty of both of those in the world - see how much he hates Peugeot if you think its a "hate on America" thing...
Property is property. Property does not vanish when someone dies. It is transferred to a new owner.
No. There is a certain point when all works (music, movies, inventions, etc) should become public domain.
Why? Because if what you're saying is true, we'd all be paying Leonardo da Vinci's kin licensing fees to using ball bearings, or Jack Kilby/Robert Noyce's kin for every piece of modern electronics or some random cave man's family for the use of fire.
I do. $2500 sporty cars that are 10 years old (good luck finding one, by the way) make excellent track cars: Still new enough to get factory parts, but old enough where they can be replaced easily/cheaply if wrecked.
On the other hand chargebacks are not that prolific for honest sellers. I've used two in my life and both for cheats.
I used to work for a small retail chain (75 stores) working specifically on the POS system (including CC processing). Chargebacks are a huge issue.
Our staff had to deal with 30-40 chargebacks a month during our busy times. Each of those required at least an hour of research on the transaction, filling out forms and then getting the information back to the credit card processing company. All of which typically resulted in money coming out of our account, even though the customer was in the wrong (Along with other things, we sold monthly subscriptions to our service. A customer would dispute charges because they went to a store that started with the same first 4 letters of our name and didn't recognize the charge.).
Chargebacks cost us 1 employees time for an entire week every single month, and we where an honest retailer (refunds for anything even have way reasonable).
And to top it off, there is already a service for high priority traffic. It's called: Guaranteed bandwidth and QoS.
So long as both ends agree on which packets get delivered first, this is already a widely deployed (and acceptable) practice. An internet "fast lane" is not a solution to the heart monitor "problem".
In February 2014, Google announced it had "invited cities in nine metro areas around the U.S.—34 cities altogether—to work with us to explore what it would take to bring them Google Fiber."
One shallow, useless promise begets another...
[fanboi]But, Google!!![/fanboi]
Ummm....
You say "One shallow, useless promise begets another..." but there simply isn't a promise in your quote.
No, re-read the license. You can have it installed on up to 10 PC's. The company itself can have hundreds, so long as it's not installed on more than 10 you're still good.

Information about the car is what CONSUMERS want. Google is asking for it because we are asking for it.
The 14 tested are listed, but not the ones that are leaking data? Why list one and not the other?
Ha, I've been thinking of exactly this since the Lightsail project started.

The Lexus LFA is as Japanese as a car can come now-a-days. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L...
He is Boorish and bigoted against American vehicles.
Richard Hammond could carry that show all by himself. James May would be a perk.
Have you even watched Richard Hammonds stand-alone shows? I love what he does on Top Gear, but not on his own.
Over the years I've refused to give retailers my information. Hopefully I won't have to be proven right.
Depends on which method you use: SMS based, yes. Google Authenticator (well, they already have access to your phone), no. Yubikey, no.

Look at Z-Wave or Zigbee. All of the new stuff is bidirectional. (Philips Hue is Zigbee, by the way)

Speak for yourself. Moto360 has been a AMAZING icebreaker the last 3 months.
Sadly, it's not.

Exactly! How else could they charge for a fast lane if the connection is horrendously slow?
It's not illegal to be riding and using a cell phone at the same time.
It is illegal to cause harmful emissions (jamming)
Why are you so against Levar Burton?

If there's one worthy kickstarter out there, it's this one.
Switch to Cricket (formerly AIO), best of both worlds. Auto-pay gives discount, same price as Straight Talk, uses AT&T network (like ST).

All of the above, plus "You can only watch this movie on a Windows PC".
I don't own a single Windows PC.
DRM sucks. Hard.
Oh, yeah, this:

So? Run LibreOffice everywhere, Windows and Linux. MS Office is arguably more vulnerable to attacks than the core of Windows XP.
No, re-read the license.
