Google has years of experience doing it and they're getting better every day. Microsoft can't catch up no matter how much money they throw at it - in the final analysis, the general public reaches for Google when they want to search.
How is that statement different from this one: "Alta Vista has years of experience doing it and they're getting better every day. Google can't catch up no matter how much money they throw at it - in the final analysis, the general public reaches for Alta Vista when they want to search."
Because it was. You have a source for movable type earlier than the 11th century, step right up.
The automobile? Invented for a Chinese emperor.
By a Belgian. You know, by somebody who isn't Chinese. In fact, if the Chinese were to use Ferdinand Verbiest as propaganda, they would be going the wrong way because he showed the Chinese that western astronomy was superior to Chinese astronomy.
The Roman Abacus? "May have been inspired by" the Chinese.
The wikipedia article only suggests a possibility of inspiration of one from the other, with no mention of which direction the concept traveled. In addition, the article shows a much longer history of western designs--in particular, the Persians are listad as using them 400 years earlier and having trade with both China and Rome. So, even if one were to claim that the Chinese design inspired the Roman, it would merely have been on the arrangement of beads rather than the actual concepts.
Quite frankly, if these examples are the best you can do for propaganda, you need to increase your medication levels.

Depends on how you define "near". If you mean a store within a hundred miles will have on display, then yes. If you mean inside my house, not only no but hell no. I've got better things to waste my money on than the latest fad electronics. I'm upgrading only when the technology gets cheap and a current set goes bad. By that time--and if the format sticks--then we'll be past the "Oh, look what can be done" stage and onto some worthwhile content.
Who is "they"? The Police department? They didn't change their mind, and had always explicitly stated that messages could be monitored. They The lieutenant? He didn't have the authority to make changes in policy.
Instead of going to some half-assed article from networkworld, why aren't we linking to the actual
NASA WISE site? Original sources, people. It's not that hard.
Allegedly GWBush was has a fairly high IQ (well at least 120+) yet, outwardly at least, he may not seem it.
Let me see. For eight years, he did whatever he wanted with no regards to what anyone else would say, left the consequences for his successor to clean up, and 'one-upped' his dad by killing off Saddam. His friends made enormous amounts off the government in no-bid contracts that will never be investigated. The administration showed an almost unbelievable amount of utter disregard for the the constitution but never had to face the courts. Yep, that sounds like he was too stupid to plan things out.
Prevx has issued a grovelling apology on its own blog.
Grovelling? How sad it is that an honest apology gets an insult. If you find "We apologize to Microsoft for any inconvenience our blog may have caused." as grovelling, then I feel very sad for you and your vision of how people should relate to each other.
Except it's not an old saying, it's advertising copy from back in the 1920s that was falsely attributed to ancient Japanese/Chinese philosophers (yes, it flip-flops between ads) to make it sound more impressive. And the point behind this saying? It's to get people to buy advertising campaigns involving images--which bring in more revenue for the advertising firm.

...some industry supporters, such as Vizio, which essentially expressed no opposition because their products are currently meeting the proposed regulations ahead of time...
Or, in other words, not only is this doable, but it's being done right now by the smarter companies.
He hired 15 people, including 5 professional chefs, a photographer, an art director and writers and editors, to create it. They included Christopher Young, a biochemistry-graduate-student-turned-chef who headed the research kitchen at the Fat Duck near London, one of the most innovative restaurants in the world.
So yes, it isn't new. But the article didn't claim it was and even explicitly named the Fat Duck as one of the inspirations for the work.

Apart from modding offtopic, is there anything else we can do?
Yes, read at a higher threshold.
And no I won't read at a higher threshold because of moronic moderators who bury other people's opinions with troll and flamebait mods.
So what you're saying is you want to look in the muck for pearls, but are offended by the muck? Tough. If this post can be deleted, then those pearls you're looking for will be deleted in just the same way.
Close but no cigar. You change passwords periodically in order to limit damage. If your password is discovered by someone, then they can only exploit it until the next password change. Guess what...if you keep the same password forever, it can be exploited forever.
Yes, there are many circumstances in which the damage from a compromised password happens immediately after the compromise. But there are times when the damage is ongoing; consider a rival company monitoring the progress of a new product via email messages accessed via a compromised password.
Corporations turn town into a toxic sludge dump.

Laws are passed to limit such behavior.

The War Department was renamed Defense Department.
Not quite. The Department of Defense was made up from a merger of the Department of War (which was split into the Army and the Air Force) and Department of the Navy (Navy and Marine Core).

Don't kid yourself. People used to say the same thing about Japan.
That's a bit more than just North America.

Good. It's real simple. Encyclopedias are not sources. They are where you go to get an introduction on a topic and leads to sources.
Or, in other words, not only is this doable, but it's being done right now by the smarter companies.
I can assure you that no matter how history views IBM, it hasn't affected IBM's stock prices one bit.
