I'm not sure what the laws are with waters that belong to a country, but isn't water so X amount of miles from the shore actually belong to the country, in this case the USA? USA also has a bunch of islands in the Pacific so maybe they never landed in international waters.
Unless you are doing some serious number crunching such as CAD or video editing is this FSB increase really worth the price? I don't even think playing 3d games at 200fps really makes a difference then 150fps either...
That looks like a great project to work on, but right now its still very much in development work. Another possible solution for some situations is LTSP.
It seems once a company goes public they stop worrying about actually make good products and do anything they can to increase the stock price instead of quality.
This seems like a good idea on the surface, but in reality I'm not sure if it would work. With open source software you can't really go to any specific entity and demand that they provide bios on every developer. Some developers don't even want to be connected with a project, let alone having detailed biography of them. They probably already are receiving thousands (if not millions) of emails/mail/calls asking for support related questions to the point of harassment.
However if the developer would like credit then they could release the software under a modified license that would require the display of their bios. Already a lot of the open source projects have some information on different contributors on the project's website. I would think maybe creating something like this in the Help-->About, or man pages type area may be a good compromise.
As for the BSD license change, I think that's like comparing apples to oranges, because it seems like they did that more for the university and not for any actual developers.
I don't know though, this is like the wrist phones where you are walking around talking into your hand. There are some applications, but generally I don't believe its practical.
There will still be childhood memories, they will just be different then the previous generation of children. I don't think this is necessary bad as everything changes.
Very true, although the two can be highly interwoven with like technologies. Now just add in model rocketry and you can really have some interesting experiences.
People should not blindly allow all of these measures to become reality in the faith that it will prevent terrorism. A big part of this too is the majority of people don't know what's happening because there has been very little media attention on this topic. We as Americans are suppose to uphold liberty and justice, but our so-called liberties are being whittled away slowly but surly.
I've always wondered why there is not more mention of Colossus. Before the Enigma machine was found on the sub, they had just about cracked it with that huge computer.
If it takes off there will probably be a sudden increase of pedestrian/vehicle accidents. "Officer he just walked into my car with his wrist to his ear and his arm covering his face..."
It seems they provided just enough information to peak peoples curiosity, have the privacy fanatics reaching for their aluminum foil and sending massive traffic to The Register, again.
This should be modded up! This is the exact point I was trying to make (and probably failed) This may help find a few of the bad guys, but at what price?
This is scary, or is it just over-reaction?

Brain Privacy
·
· Score: 5, Interesting
Now this is a rather disturbing article. I've always thought it was something that people can check out brain function and all of that, however I never thought off it as being a privacy concern. This article though brings up some interesting points. Such as having brain scans be a condition to being hired, much like a drug test of today. This at first seems shocking, but it is commonly accepted to take a drug test without any objections. With the heightened security concerns around the globe I believe people, as a whole are willing to work towards a "more secure" future.
The problem I see though is people are not thinking broad enough. Technologies such as this can be used on a large scale against humanity. I believe the consequences of such abilities need to be addressed in a uniform manner, without always talking about the terrorists that will kill us all anyway. How far will society let the security over take our lives? I for one do not want to end up living in a military state where every body that does not have blonde hair, blue eyes, and a perfect attitude is destroyed. Do you?

Nope I don't see a connection, is this a slow news day or something?

Hopefully it will not run Windows with the BSODs.

This though fits right into our society's view on everything being disposable.

I wonder what type of security X10 devices have. Do they have any ability to block DDOS attacks, or /.ing?
A care-ware license? Good choice
Is this going to be how they justify paying for huge license fees?

Go calculate something
Its good to hear some good news on the news at least sometimes.
