....but because cell phones each would be hitting dosens of towers at
once vs just a couple on the ground plus this strain wouild be moving rapidly across any given area, causing network problems. Thats why cell calls are banned in flight.
Fun. Then the black hat uses it to download child porn and other
illegal material, and guess who is the one going to jail?
I better be able to shut the damn thing off (and I mean OFF, as in the
circuit gets no power and is disabled through a full physical switch/break
in the circuit) or NO SALE
Oh a shift away from a money based economy...uh...excuse me.....
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! NEVER GONNA HAPPEN. Even the commies used money and paid wages and it was usualy just enough for shitty food and a crappy apartment. Forget even buying an Ipad with that kind of dough.
How about they install a gun inside the dashboard to blow away the sheep buying this crap?
Or have the doors "malfunction", trapping the iDiots inside and then 'just
happen' to catch fire?
Driverless cars are now the cool thing for non automotive to do now!
Now excuse me as I try to figure out how to avoid roads entirely in the near future on my limited budget.
There used to be a series of videos on Youtube (taken down for some mysterious reason) of a guy who would smash and destroy all kinds of electronics, and in one video he tried to destroy a CRT style color TV (2000s vintage) by dumping a whole bottle of soda directly on the (live and turned on) circutry. Not only did the set NOT blow up or shoot sparks, it kept operating, with only the picture starting to gradually shrink verticaly!
Not that I recommend doing this as I am sure the puddle was probaly electricaly live and carrying a lethal voltage but these videoes showed
just how hard it is to damage electronics to the point of getting any kind of effect that is remotely like you see in Hollywood movies.
The videos were done by a man who would talk very surly, kind of grade school like, and he usualy did his destructive deeds in his tool shed which was
covered with heavy quilts and carpeting on the inside. He also appeared to be very religious and his videos often had text along the lines of "repent now and be saved!" A couple years ago, he abruptly closed his account
and pulled all of his videos off of Youtube. Strange man, but I always
enjoyed his videos.
Unless it is a public computer or a large corp. with thousands of computers then you would want a fort. Imagine the enourmous damage/cost if some nut used one of these at the public library or at the workplace he is pissed off at.
Cry me a fucking river. He is lucky to have a job in the first place. If he can't do his job, well, he can practice saying "Would you like fries with that?".
They probaly need to do what Foxconn does and install anti-suicide nets at Amazon
Castro will never go to hell, because "heaven and hell" exists on Earth only, as a physical state/status that a person or place is in. Castro went to the
exact same place that every single creature, including humans go, and that
is nonexistance.
What is really sad is the many people who don't fight these tyrants because they believe in a bunch of fairy tales that tell them that "God will get them in the end" and "if you suffer on Earth, you will relax and be happy in Heaven" (another storybookesque place that only exists in peoples minds)
so they just sit back and let themselves and others including their loved ones to be abused in this manner
He would need to "rot in hell" because of how he hurt other people and have to kill.
Scince I am Athiest and don't believe in heaven or hell, I see another tyrant
who lived out the rest of his life in relitave comfort, and has now ceased
to exist entirely, save for the dead shell that was once his body. He will never feel any of the pain or suffering his victims did, nor suffer in any kind of prison scince you can't suffer when you no longer exist.
Yet another villan gets away Scot free
Judging by all of the HDTVs i've seen hooked up through an SD composite connection to an HD compatable *box and the pictures being in both stretchovision and cropovision, I would not be suprised.
768K not M you mean?
Outside of CAD or a very large database server, it is very doubtful a 386 would have had that much (then) super expensive ram (not saying it couldn't support it provided it has a 32 bit memory bus but still.....)
I know you are joking, but a few days ago I was reminicing about AOL and started to wonnder what the fate of their Stratus computer system was (the mainframe they ran the proprietary part of their service on). Did
they tear down and junk it? Are parts of it sitting in a museum somewhere? Is it still intact and sitting idle, collecting dust in the room it used to operate in? Or maybe...it's still RUNNING?:::cue errie music:::
I remember way back in 1994 entering my senior year in highschool, how we accidently racked up a phone bill in the hundreds of dollars in the first month because we used a number that looked local but wasn't.
Ahh dialup..Can't say I miss being disconnected near the end of a 3 hour download that could not be resumed.
Yeah, the screen is small, and it is a bit thick and not "pretty", but it is solid, survived quite a bit of abuse, and the specs are still good enough for almost all the apps out there and is just fine. Plus, it has a headphone jack, the battery is removable, and most important to me of all is that it's ROOTED*. I actualy dread the day I will have to replace my phone, because the industry as a whole is going away from what I want in a phone. *Yes, I don't want or need a nanny in my phone saying "Bad consumer, don't touch any of that underlying linux stuff. Play with this My Talking Tom rattle instead. The way things are going, 2016 will look like a completly open free computing utopia compared to 2026, and in a decade, we will be posting here saying "Remember not so long ago, it was actualy possible to sideload apps on your phone/tablet/computer without $BIG_CORP telling you no, and not every app needed a constant always-on internet connection for every basic function, and it was possible to root/jailbreak many devices?"

This was called AOHell back in the mid 90s. Or Fraudigy. Or Compu$$$erve. The bad old days are (comming) here again!

.....who is going to buy their products scince people need to HAVE A JOB AND WORK inorder to have MONEY? Doiiiyyooiiyyyooiyyy!!!!!!!

Remember when they used to have some original ideas?
that should say "driverless car companies" who really should stick to their original field and not be a car company at all.
Prepare for more "me too" driverless cars to jump on this bandwagon to try and be 'cool'

Where would they get the proper matter to feed themselves and reproduce with?
