Apple's goal is quite clear here. They want to attach an iPhone to every soul on this planet. Hence the price drop and the old camera to lower costs. Also, 2 people buy more software through the AppStore than 1, specially if that 1 person doesn't care about the Apps cause he's too happy playing with the video camera the whole day.
With the ongoing development of unmanned vehicles war will turn into a 1942 kind-of game for most of the US army. Including respawn. Your predator got pawned? You get automatically to control the next available one. So it makes sense to use the same interface you've been using all your youth years. I'd stick with the good old ASDW and mouse, over any other if you ask me.
The world cyber games champion will be tomorrow's Rambo, so don't mess with her/him.
This is the kind of problems humans will face everyday while exploring the universe. Not the plasma-shields, warp reactors and all that pasteurized crap you see in today's sci-fi movies and novels.
Is that they want the US laws enforced in every country, not just theirs. When something is illegal in Germany all sites are required to ban german IPs from, say, the download section. When something is illegal in the US, they want it erased from the face of the earth.
How is this different from Google reading, indexing and tagging every word in your e-mails? Is it bad just because they actually hire people instead of using an AI?
Remember that social site that fooled you to get your gmail account and password so you can "invite" all your friends? Remember that someone told you not to do so because is wasn't safe to make your password public but you didn't listen?
Well, now you just got a shinny new Penile Prosthesis Insertion - Non-inflatable AND a Penile Prosthesis Insertion- Inflatable.
I Can't believe people, even inside Microsoft, can see this as a good thing. This is like McDonalds bullying and lobbying to make the BigMac the preferred choice for UN's world food programme, and succeeding. And having people like Negroponte not mad about it just makes me think there's little to no hope.
Argentina streets aren't in Google maps either. I've heard tons of versions regarding why practically every southamerican country but Argentina don't show up there. Including, and this one came from a Google employee, that the military/goverment didn't want to give "sensitive" information (Read: The bribe wasn't good enough). So they were looking for third party mapping companies to buy the data from (Read: Unhappy employee)
MSN Live has streets but it seems they've used very old data as they show streets that don't exist so don't rely on them too much.
That's great! I would vote for a long HowTo or a script. Making it a package may make it very popular and the feature may get known by everybody, including the thieves.
It's not Google's fight. They are in to make money. Period. Do no evil? Please, don't be naive.
And for those of you who say "If you are part of the system, you support it" and criticize Google for not standing up against human right violations, well, then stop buying everything made in China and stand up yourself first! Stop buying Nike shoes, iPods, some GAP cloth, Notebooks, Blu-ray players, LCD TVs and many other gadgets you love so much...Suddenly China's human right violations doesn't sound too much evil when you have to change your consuming habits right?
It's not Google's shareholders, it's ALL of us who "Vote Against Human Rights". We vote with our [insert local currency here] everyday and everyday we vote for the best price/benefit (or any other formula) and care shit about human rights involved in the manufacturing of the product.
He KNOWS which set of hardware he is playing with. Dr. Masaru Emoto discovered that crystals formed in frozen water reveal changes when specific, concentrated thoughts are directed toward them using the same method...Not very scientific.
I'm not saying he is not right, he probably is. But I could have guessed that without even trying them.

Asus EEE PC + VNC over Wi-Fi should solve everything.
Blue CTs have an advantage in dark levels

When it makes it's own plastic cartridges too.
Can't wait for them to release an API so everyone can build his/her own trader bot. Talk about Wintermute...

Damn, it's too late for me now...Save yourselves! Run! I'll know what to do when the time comes...

And remember. In space, no one can hear you fart.
Users will always need upgrades and demand more features, those can be addressed offering bounties.
Is this guy the same Nostradamus that predicted DVD, BluRay, and [insert your favourite..] encryption to be unbreakable?
Have some self respect and tell me it's a joke.

A guy by the name of Homer Thompson just added me as a Facebook friend, wondered who he was.

Maybe he worked at Lockheed Martin before, you never know.
...program to develop jet fuel from algae and other biomass...
Yes, but can they use grey goo?

Abolish copyright and stop this bullshit. 6 hours?? Why not 5? or 3? Please.
will be M4A1s with rubber bullets. They aren't lethal so the ban doesn't apply either ;)
Have you seen the movie Lord of War? Great movie.

Don't know about Yahoo.

Thanks for bringing that up. Haven't thought of it before but yes you are right.

Relax and enjoy life. Good talking to you.
