Maybe Drone manufacturers need to step up to help understand the regulations better. Do you think these regulations are clearly defined and easily acceptable?

The developers and publishers might have a slight disposition towards PC Games because they are a lot easier to copy, crack and share.
Not that console games aren't impossible.
Also - don't developers get plenty of support from Sony/Microsoft/Nintendo - each console is trying to woo developers to make the next Halo.
What i'm trying to say is that the industry might not be listening to us - the consumers....
is getting out of hand... first gif, then mp3, now jpeg... corporate america is turning into a a joke.. i guess, as of now, people don't have much of an option, but these black suits seem to be pushing people, rather ALL the people into a corner.. thus forcing alternatives like open source to succeed... linux, ogg vorbis.. what next....
The jets vs the alien crafts.... it was brilliant.... hundreds of crafts battling it out... one of the most furious air combats I have seen.
The combined attack on the borg cube by the federation fleet... was nice again; the max number of ships involved in a battle in a trek movie
Some decent space battles in the sub-par Wing Commander movie
Star Wars.. well... the movies had to justify the name:D Star wars rocks
We still do it in 2004 with bikes that run on 1970s technology... we soup our twin cylnder two strokes RD350s (which have been called giant killers) and then measure speeds accurately with 1990s technology speed guns.... and.. i own a PII from the late 90s and a laptop from the early 2ks.... time.. is an enigma
the approach is wrong.. as a gamer, my primary concern is not the OS on which the game will run, but the game itself and wether it will run on the platforms available to me... it irks me when I see a game I like and cannot play it because its for a different console or a different OS. Going back in time... the shift from DOS to Win95 was slow because most games - doom, duke3d,descent, shadow warrior etc etc ran on DOS.. and wingames was a synonym for cheap squiggly graphics puzzle oriented games. Hence DirectX was born. Loki tried to re-engineer games to be linux-compatible.. but i think that's a waste of time and resources. The designers/publishers should have a small porting team which ports the code as the game is being developed (or just after).
Ofcourse, Linux can be worked on to make it a a stable gaming platform - but the way its being portrayed.. its like they want it to be THE gaming platform.. a replacement.... which means the enterprise software will run on one OS and the games on another:(
because they are giving a new lease of life to an already saturated market; i'm happy with my 32x burner and would not have thought of investing in another cd-burner... and would have upgraded to a dvd-burner whenever i could afford one... but now.. I'll HAVE to consider this...
we'll have happy cd-writer manufacturers, happy cd-manufacturers, happy geeks and very happy software pirates:D
I missed this detail, but what speed does it burn the label at?:p how long would it take to burn a full gfx rich label?
of the better conspiracy theories i've heard in recent times.. i remember there also talk of folding a bill to get an image of the twin towers being hit by a plane
how true can this notion be? rfid embedding can have a few pros.. easy to trace actual bills and thus stolen money, easy to isolate fake bills... but then again... ransom money, thefts will all become passe..
but then again.. all this is just an extension of the conspiracy theory
way we can manage to project a true 3d hologram like in starwars would be once we conquer light - when we can restrict the distance it travels - without it losing its brightness...
Guess as of now its impossible to project a holo from a single point/side source using current technology
This idea however is brilliant.. i guess.. 24 cameras would mean.. 24 fps.. where each frame would be a pic from a successive camera, and the screen rotates to those 24 positions each second...
Now that someone has implemented it, it sounds so simple
has begun. But there's not much that we customers can do, is there. A boycott will be of no use unless its on a global scale. And then, we like our music; how can this music industry monopoly be broken; itunes is the right way out, but not substantial enough.
MyDoomv3 - for RIAA anybody?
to think that we have a 3rd contender... the aliens and that they've already won:p
on a more serious note, hope all the interested people checked out the James Cameron vision on what Mars Exploration would be like.
a plug for Hexaware. Why just hexaware? There are other SEI CMMi5 companies like vMoksha, Infosys and Satyam.
I noticed the article is not about outsourcing - its more about outsourcing to India. But now the US cos are employing the services of other global service providers from countries like Romania, Russia, China and Phillipines.
Also, why has ONLY software outsourcing attracted so much attention? Right from shoes to garments to even toys, and other manufacturing industries - components are outsourced. I guess the IT boom cast a brief vision of a great lifestyle..... and then went bust - and outsourcing is being blamed for the boom not booming.
One must not forget that even the citizens of the US were once outsourced....
its aliveee! And this is just after Nintendo has declared excellent sales during the holiday period. Ofcourse, it has been attributed to the low pricing, but their sales were (apparantly) better than the PS2 and the XBOX.
The linux port should help widen the gamecube's appeal to more people
unlike hollywood movies, these shows seem to be made ONLY for the American market. I am surprised, because most of the other countries in the world do end up watching a lot of american shows; also, these shows come to these other countries MUCH after the american cycle. If these shows do become a hit abroad, everyone comes out a loser - the fans can't get enough - the producers can't give enough. I guess these guys don't think big enough and are still stuck in an old business model. Sighh... so much creativity, expense and skill - all for nothing
already offering such services; the service keeps updating your location on the cellphone; for eg if you're on xyz street - it says ure on xyz street on the default screen; it may sound stupid but sometimes it is of great use. Also, some companies have already been testing sms bombing.. its not restricted to hotels or singles, but also to ATM machines, stores etc.
I fortunately do not have a cell; one way to make this work is - pay the user everytime u bomb him.. every sms u send him earns him 5 mins of free talktime;)

AmigaOS is now KMOSOS?
I never had an Amiga; did have a ZX Spectrum though - with its tape-drive and joystick...
find the guy who wrecked his ipod mini to "satisfy his curiousity" and er, ours too. This may be the ideal next project for him..

deep blue was one machine... here the GM can claim to have beaten thousands of machines all working against him..
just got cooler eh? But, they definitely didn't feature macs in the Matrix, did they? :D
because fatter people are smarter? and they when to convert an opportunity and make money out of it?
