I have seen that commercial. I find it amazing that Granny takes the device out of the box, and it's already charged, and requires absolutely *NO* configuration to connect to her wireless network, and calls home successfully the first time!
If you don't teach kids how to spell, then they will just use emoji to convey their thoughts. In the corporate world, this is completely unprofessional.
The demo must have been faked! If google really had a voice synthesizer with that high level of quality, then they would be using it in all those robot voice videos on youtube.
Also, "smarter people don't have better passwords" isn't what was measured. "Filipino College students with higher grades don't have better passwords" is really what was measured.
From the poster's username, it sounds like he's in Australia. It's likely that this phone will not work on all US carriers. (Verizon doesn't care much about SIMs).
I would like a phone with those features, but maybe omit NFC, and add an IR blaster.
Nobody said it was safer. But they can be charged with electricity from the sun. You have to wait a long time before the sun grows plants, and they turn into oil that you can refine into gasoline.
This sounds like a job for the Impossible Mission Force... Get the target to believe that staying in Germany is more dangerous than going to America, and then when he crosses the border, nab him.
RC quadcopters are just like the RC model planes your great-grandfather flew eighty years ago...
So, you're saying that in 1938, people were flying radio-controlled model aircraft? I doubt it. There were no transistors until much later, so I don't think that the aircraft would be powerful enough to lift the HUGE BATTERIES, TRANSFORMERS, and VACUUM TUBES unless it was a FULL-SIZE aircraft.
These were deployed at the Mall of America during the superbowl weekend. There were lots of kids interacting with them. They are pretty short, so they're not over-imposing. To me, though, they seemed pretty useless.
There are plenty of videos on youtube about psychics, ghosts, and ufo's, making claims not backed up by ANY kind of science. Youtube didn't remove those.

I wonder if Elon's roadster has a radiator...

So... Harvard's motto is just "Lies"?
If Nadella really thinks that the World is a computer, then Microsoft's next product better damn well be "Windows for Earth".
Hold on... Cryptocurrency? And "off the grid"? I don't think those two things go together.

That means 10 million ladies willing to get payback by sleeping with slashdotters! Let the good times roll!

Will they have the "courage" to remove the screen?

That's a GREAT idea! Send all the Lawyers to Pluto!
I like your solution: Just drop the period all together.
...and we would sacrifice a bit of storage space just to store all those, uh, spaces.

The only real-world application is for a metronome.
That's Reserved for the Bay Area Rapid Transit.
BLU is based in Florida.

Man, some people will do *ANYTHING* to avoid Russia!

The Smithsonian is a huge tourist attraction, even for people who speak Swahili.
As soon as it does, there will be a lot less crime, faster court proceedings, and better politicians. Bring it on!
