They could, but then I'd feel bad for the astronauts. In addition to the already rigorous training, they'd have to add another four months of hard-core VC buzzword brain reprogramming. And their little jet-powered PDAs would have to contain at least an extra ten GB of storage to handle the lexicon. I don't know about you, but I'd hate to have a VC 'analyst' peering over my shoulder as I manipulated a robotic arm around a $10 MM piece of high tech equipment.
I heard a rumor that R. Daneel Olivaw will be helping out here and there, especially with a new technology that can capture approaching comets and mine them for minerals. Can anyone confirm this?
Another good link about Phoebe. It should be noted that the satellite is transmitting blurry images of the moon sitting on a couch and drinking coffee while uttering words of wisdom which, at first glance, seem stupid. It also seems eerily older than the rest of the moons.
Is there anything that _doesn't_ crash a pocket pc? Seriously - my med student neighbor got one for free, anything he loaded on it would cause it to lock up and cause him to knock on my door for help. No matter what I tried, I just couldn't get that OS to work right (by that I mean just plain work), so he gave up and got a Palm.
1) No, it will be a propietary atrac thing which will take five hours to convert an rtf doc into a protected atrac file before 'conveniently' dropping into your colleague's laptop 2) of course they will, it will be in the next upgrade plugin distribution for media player, but nobody using any of ten public serials will be allowed to use it 3) Yes, all ps3 and psps will be bundled with one of these pense. And, 4) No.
There are cameras in stores, people still shoplift. There is a death penalty for murderers, people still get murdered. Deterrence is a myth. It doesn't work. If it did, all the laws on the books today would be enough to keep crime at bay.
A camera will not stop someone from killing me. Unless we all want to pay for full-time bodyguards, the expectation that a silly camera will provide us with safety is asinine. That's the same argument lawmakers have used for ages to erode our liberties one by one. A touchy subject, yes, but a subject in which I believe strongly. True, there is no expectation of privacy in a place such as a harbor. However, that does not give a government the right of monitoring the population unless they have built a case that the population needs to be monitored. The only way that is possible is if they have evidence that every single person in Balitmore is a criminal and as such will expect to be prosecuted. The semblance of safety is a dangerous illusion put forth by those who wish to monitor the innocent.
Thank god you posted this, I was afraid CNN would be slashdotted in a heartbeat. Here, let me provide an even more useless post with this tinyurl link to the article: click here.
I love the pictures in the article. They just show people merrily using their cellphones. It would make more sense if they showed the angry users, you know, the ones who smash their phones to teeny tiny bits, feed the bits to a squirrel, and then smash the squirrel into teeny tiny bits.
Nobody understands women, either. So that must mean that gravity=women, which makes sense as 1) both get "heavier" as you approach the center, 2)Though their effects can be weak, the effect itself is pervasive anywhere in the universe, 3) Both tie you down, 4) Both are disobeyed only in fantastical tales of science fiction, and 5) Black holes (the most extreme form of gravity) are the same thing as a woman's memory nothing _ever_ escapes.
Simple - similar to the Fraunhofer pscho-acoustic encoding algorithms, they just deleted the frequencies that the human ear doesn't perceive. Seeing how the human ear didn't exist fourteen billion years ago, most of the sound didn't make it and left us with the sounds of a street preacher screaming that the world's beginning is nigh.
This only confirms my theory that the Big Bang originated somewhere in the near vicinity of Uranus. Not only was it ridiculously loud, but it also stank to high heaven.
I wonder if this was smuggled out of Stalag 13 by Dunkirk and modified by the Allies to give us the ENIAC?? Boy, I'll bet General Burkhalter was pissed at Klink!
Hot air, indeed. No doubt posting a Linux Today article on the front page of Slashdot will induce a flood of traffic to their site, in effect negating the call for a boycott. Is that irony?

Right on brother! Even more so if Carrie-Anne Moss is the pilot. Whooo-eee!
*looks in pants...*
Speak for yourself, pal.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, pal! This is slashdot. I don't have any answers, I just like to whine about the answers others try to implement!

Much like holding down the address button on your Palm pda to automatically transmit your business card data to another pda?

But have you ever had a billing error in YOUR favor?
Yeah, but it's been a while. I haven't played Monopoly since I was eight.

Hoooooooooooooooooogan!
This'll be badass with my shreddin air guitar!!
I always thought Microsoft had more phd than Google. Wait, is it spelled fud or phd? See? Their phd has already phdded my fragile mind! Ah, phuk 'em.
I don't care where Mr. McCaw got his idea. With a mug like this I'd let this pimp skillet disrupt whatever the hell he wants.
As a polished turd with hair, I take offense with the comparison to Microsoft products.

Same planet.
and promptly sell it to raise capital for a brand new computer company. I'll make billions! Now if I could only find a neo-hippie with a prius...
