    If he did, he is waiting 4 seconds before he drives.

  2. If Uber manufactures the cars in another country and smuggles them into the US illegally would they be granted sanctuary?

  3. Do these early adopting states on Uber Admits To Self-driving Car 'Problem' in Bike Lanes As Safety Concerns Mount (theguardian.com) · · Score: 1

    Do these early adopting states have really uniform street/lane markings for things like bike paths?
    I have been trying to imagine a car trying to drive on some of the roads in Louisiana. It is hard to make out where the lanes are sometimes.

  4. Dark World Mario 3 on Nintendo Legend Miyamoto: Mario Needs To Evolve To Survive (cnet.com) · · Score: 1

    They already did the Dark World in Mario 3. They did flicker the lights on now and then as an assistance to the poor "sighted" people.

  5. I use Netflix to watch that odd movie or show I really wanted to see when it first came out but somehow missed. I caught a good part of the first season of Daredevil on Netflix over the Thanksgiving holiday.

  6. Re:I don't care if I know the outcome on Most DVR Owners Are Recording Live Sports, Survey Says (cnet.com) · · Score: 1

    That must have made the Titanic the "Best Journey Ever!!!"

    Dijkstra on Cobol and Basic. Bias worse than yours towards PASCAL, even if it happens to be true.

  11. Re:Usual suspect list - Cosmic Rays on ESA Lander's Signal Cut Out Just Before It Was Supposed To Land on Mars (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    Yes, and that is also why the all time favorite solution is deflectors.

  13. Re:Wow, you really must be new here. on Samsung Permanently Discontinues Galaxy Note 7 (twitter.com) · · Score: 1

  14. uploaded to the cloud on Vint Cerf Warns About the Perishability Of Human Knowledge (vice.com) · · Score: 2

    This is the biggest problem. People want to upload everything to the cloud, but have no idea what the "cloud" really is. There are servers and storage media/devices even in the cloud. When it no longer serves the needs of the cloud provider, all of that data can and will just disappear. Even paid services close up shop sometimes. Users will be given a short window to get their data somewhere else, then it will all be gone. You have no guarantee your pictures/data will be there tomorrow with the free services offered currently.

  15. Remember that time...Neo got his butt whipped?

    Yeah, he told the Tick there was no spoon. That didn't turn out so well.

  16. Once reuse is proven to be economically feasible.. on SpaceX Finds a Customer For Its First Reused Rocket (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    Once reuse is proven to be economically feasible..the problem will be getting people to pay the extra $$ to use the new ones to keep the supply of discounted rockets available.

  17. Some people like breaking rocks... on Players Seek 'No Man's Sky' Refunds, Sony's Content Director Calls Them Thieves (tweaktown.com) · · Score: 1

  18. Was going to ask... on How Security Experts Are Protecting Their Own Data (siliconvalley.com) · · Score: 1

    Was going to ask...how do you make use of it, but then I figured out it was connected to your open wireless router.

  22. How often...does the EPA inspect these sites?
    Inspector: "Hey, this badge lets me go thru this door!"

  25. You are joking... on Seagate Reveals 'World's Largest' 60TB SSD (zdnet.com) · · Score: 1

    You are joking, but I am sure many of us have seen "home grown" business with mixtures of enterprise grade and home/consumer grade tech that makes us want to cry on many occasions. As long as it "still works" they will fight tooth and nail to keep it just the way it is.
