Google had worked on a self-driving electric car. Then they decided that build the whole car was madness and that they should pivot that project into a sepearate company that is now working on developing self-driving cars based on existing cars with added hardware. It's called Waymo and they're making great progress, they make Tesla's efforts seem like childsplay.
Any headline that ends in a question mark can be answered by the word no. "Can this robot build an IKEA chair faster than you?" "Altogether, the robots put together the chair in a little over 20 minutes.... We challenged several Science staffers to build the same chair, and they beat the robots’ time—but only by 50 seconds."
That's actually not that bad. Most companies do this, but most don't include a disclaimer.
The alternative is to enable the protection from the factory, which probably results in a lot of return from customers who are not able to figure out why their camera doesn't work.
By simple brute-forcing spammer are generating a lot of traffic. Almost 70% of all e-mail traffic is spam, how long before 70% of all login attempts are done by bots?
"Is someone DDOSing our website? Nope, just bots trying to get in."
Cisco knew, they even had a 'choice' in the matter: cooperate with the government and keep your mouth shut about it or get your business ruined by that same government.
> I really think a medical savings account kind of plan is the right idea.
Also, the saving account plan should compensate for poor people having trouble making payments by having people that can afford it pay a little extra.
Then corporate greed/ignorance/bureaucracy strikes and the whole thing starts costing way to much and pays out to little.
My point: you described insurance.
Doesn't "data consisting of all or part of any documents, e-mails, video, audio, and VoIP information being sent over the network by the user" mean "some random packets"?
"Saving data unintentionally" is dubious but AFAIK Google just records SSIDs for non-GPS positioning.
My something's-off-sense is tingling.
Ofcourse Nintendo is trying to sell more games. That's their business.
But what's a more friendly way to do this? Supporting a health-related cause or removing features from your product? (I'm looking at you Sony)

close, but no cigar.
Bluetooth requires 2way communication.
The devices on the recieving end don't have the power the set up a connection.
there were a couple of versions of the REX pda's, but the REX6000 definitly had input posibility. it had the same 5 buttons as every other, but also a touchscreen with a on-screen keyboard.
I have one, but I don't use it very often because I also own a palm PDA and there is no easy way of syncronizing the two. But I do think the REX6000 was a very usefull device. in some cases regular handheld devices are just to large.
I have a 15" and a 17" on my desk at work.
The 15" contestantly has a webbrowser opened on it.
That's adding productivity...
working and reading/. at the same time.
it does function great! putting it in the desktop version is a nice gimmick, but it doesn't seem to work well with frames. oh wait, make that not at all!

5GB save games? They hardly go over 10MB. Are you talking about the actual game date?

How would a cinema enforce a life-time, chain-wide ban? Just keep bugging them and don't forget to lawyer up.
It's Business Software. Companies in that business tend to aim for 'good enough' instead of 'good'.
As I've understood it, the head wobble is a polite way of saying 'no' while avoiding the actual use of the word 'no'.

Ballmer is a personal friend of Gates and already was one before MS was founded.

about the 80mm disc:
just burn the game to a regular writeable DVD and cut the GC's box to fit the discs.
and I can recall a rip-off GC by pioneer (?) which could also play regular sized DVD's due to it's size.

Nope, no tigers here.
