My previous system relied on a specially designed bicycle seat; but if you can do it with a capacitive screen phone, that's probably a patent-able improvement.
I dropped from 70mph to 20mph in one second today (good tires) because of other idiots on the road.
First, no, you didn't do it in one second.
Second, if you had the need to drop from 70 to 20 in a second because of "other idiots on the road," unless there was an actual accident happening in front of you, I suspect that you're one of the idiots making our roads unsafe. [I mean, you were on a freeway at 70, right?]
Having owned and lived in a condo in downtown Phoenix, walking distance from BoB/Chase/Whatever field, I can assure you that even a couple hundred yards away, I hear every sound the city has to offer from that intersection.
I can only assume any city with a real downtown that what I'm saying it true in spades.
While I enjoy "the sound of the city," I'm not sure I'd enjoy hearing "10, 9, 8, 7..." repeated every minute for the rest of eternity.
The people "using MtGox" weren't using BTC, they were "using MtGox."
If they were using BTC, coins would still be in their wallet. Complaining about the Magic The Gathering Online Exchange having anything to do with BTC is like complaining about paper currency that you stored in someone else's badly guarded safe.
...and, as I believe has already been pointed out, even if it were - no matter what your D/s master might have told you - you can't enter into contracts of slavery.
I'm going to be surprised if Amazon wins this one, even in the People's Democratic Republic of California.
Amazon and others pay a "tithe" to their BTC processor, exactly the same was they fees to their other merchant processing services.
Strictly speaking, nobody accepts anything other than the cold hard cash their payment processor transfers to their account at the end of the day. "MasterCard" doesn't put money in their bank account -- XYZ Merchant Services LLC does. As long as XYZ will accept BTC and give Amazon "real" money, great. The same goes for Visa, MasterCard, or truckloads of Dutch tulips.
The problem is, quite simply, that people don't read their bills.
If only people would read the contracts they sign and the bills they get:
Under section 37B of the contract signed by him, it states quite clearly that all offers shall become null and void if - and you can read it for yourself in this photostatic copy - "I, the undersigned, shall forfeit all rights, privileges, and licenses herein and herein contained," et cetera, et cetera... "Fax mentis, incendium gloria cultum," et cetera, et cetera... Memo bis punitor delicatum! It's all there! Black and white, clear as crystal!
If you're going to use a dumb analogy, at least include the relevant parts:
It's like a mall getting shut down for some of the stores automatically selling black market guns, after the mall owners had been repeatedly contacted, asking them to do something about the gun stores.
Issuing the order ex parte gives the new owner of the "stores" the chance to intercept those automatic orders and take action on them before the roaches scurry away with the lights on.
When you install Malware on my machine, you have two choices, you can give it an IP to contact, or you can give it a DNS name.
If you give it a static IP address, it's easy for the good guys to contact your provider and squash you. If you give it a DNS address on a provider that doesn't do fuck all about malware hosts using it, then you can survive the whack-a-mole game for a long time.

I'm pretty sure your parents need murdered at the opera to get a DC headstone.
Do you think the fly-by-wire and the hydraulics operate on magical pixie dust?
Don't be silly. We all know it uses unicorn semen.

You mean, if they want to sell it in a market that has a meaningful presence - then they have to deal with local classification boards.
Self-publishing is always an option, but rarely works if you're a complete and total upstart independent.
In the photos, it looks like they're hanging sheets of pre-printed concrete.
I'm not sure this is anything novel, other than how they "printed" the Lego pieces and then drove them to the site.
Angles, son, consider angles
I started parsing this in Spanish. :/
30-40 feet is considerable.

While it's easier to, say, get stamps or buy a lottery ticket, it's not much harder to get BTC than it is to post comments on /.

In related news, a Sinaloa Cartel spokesperson was quoted as saying, "Thanks, we were wondering who had our money."
They already wear masks, striped shirts, and carry their stolen goods in burlap bags. I'm pretty sure that "I AM A BURGLAR" is unnecessary.
5 years on capital return is BASIC budget planning that any business that owns its building does.

Because no-ip had been called out for providing name-services for malware distributors countless times before - and they don't do fuck-all about it.
That's why the DNS service is being blamed.

No-IP punished their legitimate customers by allowing their service by failing to take action against those who abuse their service.
Lots of phones are unlocked. Slide and you're in. Facebook is already logged in.
There's just no reason to handcuff him and make him dictate something that you're typing. Why not cut out the middleman?
Why would he dictate it at all if they're typing what they want?
This (non) story reeks of lame.
Awesome.
If you installed Thunderbird for someone else, and they didn't know Thunderbird was their email client, how did you expect THEM to find it?
