  1. Re:Obligatory nostalgia on Another Raspberry Pi? $49 ARM Single-Board Computer With Android · · Score: 1

    I know if I can get it to work as a thin client there will be a market for me. I would even be happier with even less CPU and another $10 off the price.

    What's not real about android?
    You can run busybox and have a debian chroot if you want.

    1280x720 is pretty standard in call centers these days. These things look like they would make great thin clients.

    Cyanogenmod has it as well.

    It was never meant for use on individuals, only groups. Far more people are fatties than athletes.

    That is not from HTC.
    Which means you should just not buy HTC phones. Much easier.

    I meant from HTC. I have 0 interest in rewarding people who sell boot loader locked phones.

    You are honestly going to claim more people are on the high end of the weight scale because they exercise so much?

    How tall are you?
    At 5' 7" I am not a midget and I go under 154lbs. I would say I am on the short side of average, but not outside the normal high range for a White male.

    In short, you sound fat.

    That would be one way to end coal dependence. In fact almost exactly what I meant. We need to use coal power to end the use of coal power by building its alternatives.

    I am so glad we agree.

    So you bury them. PR problem solved.

    Large scale storage exists, pump water up hill. Efficiency matters not when you had no other use for that power.

    Then it will not be clean by any stretch, as doing so would cost more than importing natural gas.

    It will never be not windy over the whole country at once. The poor will not freeze, they get subsidized heating. Personally I would use Nuclear for base load, but coal needs to die.

    Yes, it is. Why would that hurt NASA?

    Those monthly allotments are still pretty rare in the USA. Even place that have them like comcasts 350GB limits, are pretty decent. It would take something like 5 hours a day to go over.

    So in your reality power storage has not been invented yet?

    Solar thermal can run for days without sunlight, wind power can be used to pump water up hill, all things that are done right now.

    You could, but then it would cost more than natural gas or nuclear.

    There are lots of ways to burn it cleanly, but then it costs more than using something else.

    Verizon has the galaxy nexus, they don't seem to be doing well with updates but the bootloader is not locked.

    Bzzt wrong. Needs a better display. 1280x720 is the minimum I am now willing to accept.

    I would assume he means he would stick with dev devices. Which is what those of us who want an unlocked bootloader do now.

    They would like to be able to sell their product in China.

    While we are hoping for stuff that will not happen, I hope they kill Blur.

    HTC still will not really unlock a phone, by that I mean lack of S-OFF. Sure you can live with that, but this is why I did not buy an HTC phone.

    Why the fuss about a moon colony?
    The moon seems pretty worthless, check out the deltaV needed to get from there to anywhere vs from earth. Then realize anything leaving the Moon already paid a lot of DeltaV to get there from earth.

    The Moon is pointless as far as I can tell.

    It might meet their safety rating, but it does not even make it to LEO. If you want to launch people into the Sea of Japan, it would be cheaper to use a catapult.

    Researching those should be done by government research. Right now though, Falcon XX could be built and make it there.
