My cats have each figured out the dot comes from the pointer...and when they get board they start to attack the hand. They still play with the pointer; probably because it is "fun".
Dell actually officially supports linux on the XPS 13 and Precision 15. You can buy it with ubuntu pre-installed and save $100. All drivers are on their project sputnik page.
I never think about battery life on my Pebble Time. I throw it on the charger for the 15 minutes in the shower and I'm consistently between 90-100%, and when I go away for a weekend I don't bother bringing my charger and am at 20% at the end when I get home.
There is a plug-in for chrome (and a similar one for Firefox) called Video Speed Controller that let's you change playback speed from.1 to 4x in.1 increments with audio and up to 16x without. It is even bound to hot keys for fine ground control.
Dell has a developer version of the XPS 13 inifinity edge laptop that is $100 cheaper and ships with Ubuntu pre-installed. Furthermore the hardware is identical so all drivers are supported for install on the widows version. I am assuming that with a little work these drivers and tools could be ported to other distros if needed. I plan on getting the windos version of an XPS in the next year or two so that I can install linux and use the windows licence on a virtual machine as I am now so that I can run Autodesk Inventor and other other few pieces of software that I use with no linux parallels.
They originally had Irfan Khan for the role of Venkat Kapoor, but shooting conflicts caused him to drop out. They got Chiwetel Ejiofor as a replacement and I think he did a great job. Most importantly they maintain the very diverse cast of characters that the book had, not white-wash it like many Hollywood movies.
If you look at the slides they actually subverted the chip and we're able to get the raw data from the reader with no encryption... No need to send the data to the 3rd party.
Scratch.mit.edu is a great visual programming environment for building games. It runs on all platforms and the raspberry pi. If you want to move into electronics and robotics there is even scratch for arduino!
You can actually go from scratch to Scratch For Arduino if you want to smoothly move into hardware fun. It is easy to set up and very rewarding as it gived you lots of feedback as to what the Arduino is "thinking" and shows how software can hardware can interact.
It is a modified Lincoln Concept Car. It was a one off (there might be a couple of them...but it was never mass-produced) that was then modified. You can not buy the base car, as it was never for sale for the general public. 4.2 million is a lot for any car...but this one is unique with a interesting and culturally relevant history. It may even pay for itself eventually with paid showings at car shows and comic conventions; and is future resale value will probably go up with time; not down. There are a lot of other thing this man could have wasted his money on...at least it wasn't bought with bailout money.
Android Scripting Environment is a layer that allows various scripting languages interact with the Android API. It supports a bunch of languages and allows for a decent level of control over the Android device.

So totally off topic, but prompted by your last sentence: I'm currently renting a car, a Toyota Yaris, I think. They moved the WHOLE DASH to the CENTER.
Oh my god, It is the worst ever. I feel like I'm a danger on the road every time I try to check my speed. Who in their right minds thought this was a good idea?
My xA has the same setup. It's fine...if your staring at the speedometer, you're doing it wrong. You should be glancing down and with the xA the gauges are almost always in your peripheral vision. This means that our eyes are mostly on the road ahead.
I like to have my lab set up with tables put together in the middle of the room with computers around that wall. This allows space for lessons and planning away from the keyboards. Students like to move tables around when they are working in groups. Computers around the wall gives me a view of all the screens allowing me to keep students on task.
33 children injured total is not a huge number. I think more children are injured by electrical outlets, knives, stoves, etc around the house each day. Parents need to watch their kids. The child in the summary would have had a lot less trouble if they had taken the kid to the doctor immediately; rather then waiting a few days. If the child is in pain they need to get the kid checked out asap. That being said there could be a warning in the box stating that swallowed magnets warrant a trip to the doctor, but I don't see why this a news fro nerd or really something that matters to most.
I tend to form close relationships to the nerdy students in the school, and I tend to have more in common with them then the other teachers I work with. I also politely inform each student that tries to friend me on Facebook that I won't friend them until graduation, since I use my Facebook for personal rather then profession purposes. Once they graduate I have no problem friending them if they approach me again.

I didn't see a way to purchase in the US; did I miss it?
Is it wrong/abusive for me to want to start to invest in companies that have names similar to those of internet companies that have yet to go public?
You have to click a button to trigger it. It doesn't randomly turn into Pacman.

You must be new here. That would require the editors to actually do something; which is against the editor code of conduct.

I am stuck running a windows virtual machine for Autodesk Inventor. I wish it or SolidWorks or something equivalent ran natively on Linux.

Not one car, this number is for the whole fleet!

You could build a small game in Pygame!

Do the directions travel times for different routes include estimates for delays due to random encounters?

The only one that doesn't run in chrome is "far7". In fact "Robots are People Too" actually recommends chrome.
I am with you. I still have to actively stop myself from finnish my food at restaurants.
