True. We must all worship the son of God the father, born to a mortal woman, who traveled the mid-east several thousand years ago performing miraculous deeds and building a religious following. Lets all worship Hercules.
Or did you have some other silly myth in mind? You were not very clear on that.
Come on! An Amtrak train falls of the track again and this is news and of interest to the technical community? We might as well have an article about how the sun rose in the east this morning. Not only is it just as much news worthy, but it includes subjects such as astronomy (which is even gooder than playing with chew-cho trains.)
I see we are no longer even pretending that Slashdot is for stories of interest to it's target group. Why assume that geeks can't follow Google news or any other Internet news source if they have an interest in non-technical news?
After being arrested, tortured and killed for trying to alert an on-line service to their vulnerability due to poor design, I no long try to contact vendors directly. I now publish the information in great detail to pirate sites, and I have found that this will get the attention of the company much better than trying to alert them quietly.
THAT is what you had problems with ???? What about the fact that this was classified as a SCIENCE story rather than a con job story or just a simple scam?
The Australian god "Jar'Edo Wens" is a really poor example. Why not use other hoaxes like the Christian god with multiple-personality disorder? That hoax has been going on much longer, and he is just as non-existent.
if only there were some way to dehydrate or freeze-dry coffee to make instant coffee. Then all this expensive and dangerous technology would not be needed and they could have had coffee years ago.
While Obama may hype this agreement as not allowing Iran to destroy the world with nuclear weapons for at least 15 years, our Israeli masters will never allow our congress to ratify this agreement.
Rooting applications are installed on about 0.5% of devices that allow sideloading of applications from outside of Google Play.
When an article (and a summary) include garbage like this, I refuse to take the rest seriously. Rooting is not Sideloading. There is a feature right in every stock Android system that tells Android that it is OK to accept Apps from sources other than Google. There are apps included with factory fresh Android that will install these apps as long as the user has chosen to allow it. This is how things like the Amazon app store work, which I have on every one of my Android devices even though none of them are rooted.
If the article can't get this right, and I know it is wrong, then I don't even want to risk exposure to bad information that I might not know enough to reject.
This study may only be referenced by Liberals when promoting new ways to take from those who produce. If ever referenced by Conservatives, such as for explaining certain inequities and suggesting that some people might actually be smarter than others, it is racist.
Back in the 1970's a friend who had been a medic told me about a spray clotting agent that was then saving lives called Topostat or Topistat. He found somewhere to buy it commercially and a few of up pitched in and got some spray cans. I never use it for more than patching up a scraped knee, but it seemed to be great stuff. Scrape you knee, spray on this stuff, and you had an instant scab to stop further bleeding.
I've never seen it again since, and even a search of the Internet seems to be completely ignorant of it. Apparently a Trademark was given for the name in 2004, but as that was about 30 years from when I saw the product that I had I'm thinking it is likely a different product. Anyone have any information on this product from the 70's?
Anyone can build a working Tricorder as long as they get to define what a Tricorder is. In this case it sounds like people are taking any medical technology and slapping the Tricorder name on it. I don't remember the Trek Tricorder including a wearable collar (I assume as opposed to the other type of collar). I might as well call an app that interacts with a Bluetooth wrist strap a Tricorder.
People looking to spend 10 grand on a watch want a Rolex or some other quality brand that will last a lifetime and that they can pass on in their will, not some junk fad that will be obsolete in 24 months. Google and Intel will pay dearly for this mistake.
This will not be Intel's first time to fail in the watch business, but their last failure was not nearly as spectacular as this will be.
And that's not all the extra rights that non-citizens have! They don't even have to register for the draft, or serve on juries!
or participate in the Obamacare mandate.
Hell, if I want to travel out of the country I have to pay at least $135 for a passport, I can't get back into the country without it. If an illegal is caught breaking our laws he gets a free tax-payer trip home, and he is usually back here without a passport in less than a month.
Do a little searching of the news. You should find references that there are at least 850 registered voters over 150 in New York City. In North Carolina there are over 2200 registered voters over 110 and at least two actively voting over age 150, the oldest being 160 when a vote was cast in 2012. These people would be automatically purged from the voting rolls if votes were not being regularly cast against their registrations. And, by an amazing coincidence, the vast majority of these voters are registered Democrats.
Voter fraud is, for all intents and purposes, non-existent anyway.
That's a huge Democrat lie. It is rampant where I live, and I have a neighbor who is a local "election judge" who even jokes about it. Not just a problem here either. Chicago and Ohio are pretty famous for it, and I very much doubt if it stops there.
What next, is he going to make all of the illegals vote too, or is that another case of them having more rights than the American citizens?
Seems like forcing people too ignorant to know who the candidates even are to vote isn't the best way to get better government, although it is certainly likely to get more votes for the Democrat party.
Yea, it is a shame that there are anti-vaxer idiots out there. By the way, did you know that our government runs the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (Public Law 99-660)? And that a tax of $2.25 is applied to every measles-mumps-rubella vaccine (as well as taxes on all other vaccines)? Of course, the fools that want to protect their own children from the dangers of vaccines are just idiots and no harm ever comes from vaccines, so don't question why the government is collecting hundreds of millions of dollars into a compensation fund.
I'm tired of hearing about Ebola. And the Obama administration's response to it, which has been to send improperly trained people who volunteered to fight in the military to pretend to be medical staff and treat a disease. And, of course, to bring people (who deliberately exposed themselves to the disease and demonstrated that they were bad at taking the precautions that would prevent the spread of the disease) back to this country, where others would be at risk.
More people die in this country of the flu virus each year than die of Ebola globally. And the flu is air-born. We are being told that Ebola is much harder to spread and that you pretty much have to go to infected areas of the world and expose yourself to get it. Yet I have not seen Obama call out the Marines or the National Guard to help fight the flu outbreak in this country. If we had all of our own domestic problems solved them maybe there would be some logic in us going over to Africa and trying to fight diseases in people who refuse to take proper precautions, including our own "missionary doctors". But we don't. More people are dying here of the flu than worldwide of Ebola, and those people are Americans who are unwillingly being exposed to an air-born disease. It is indefensible to let them suffer and die and instead joy-ride around the globe to fight diseases that affect a smaller group.

It's a Muslim thing, you wouldn't understand.

There, I fixed it for you, and in a way that will give greater understanding of the religion and its "prophet" who married a 6 year old.
No. It is real. And great news. I'm going to tell all of our local homeless beggars about it and suggest that they should go to Seattle.

Yup, great news. Because it benefits you personally, and it's not discrimination as long as it is against white males.

No wonder you're hiding behind the AC label, that sounds very anti-Zionist to me.
