As I mentioned in a previous post the LogMeIn app I also forgot to mention another one of my favorites. If you have Netflix and on a wifi network you can stream movies to it which is really nice. Another favorite app is GoodReader which allows you to import and organize pdf files. Now I can carry several of the reference books around on there and always have access to that information.
No im not an apple fan-boy, in fact I hate what apple has turned into. But this is a pretty nice device overall. Yes the hardware needs to be enhanced and yes it is overpriced. One thing I find funny is most people who bitch and complain about it have never even tried the thing...go figure.
Exactly. I have the LogMeIn app on my ipad and I can lay on the couch and log in remotely to several of my computers around the house as well as a few relatives. Plus its a great book reader!
But what happens when some dumb lab assistant working late at night at a research facility accidentally knocks over a bottle of human brain juice into a computer? Of course you know whats going to happen...we've seen all the crappy movies. But this is something we need to be afraid of!
I wonder if god will be up there waiting for him with brass-knuckles on to knock him on back down to hell!:)
I agree with some of the others that a person who can constrain themselves like that would be interesting to study. I wonder what the comparison between a person like that and a prisoner's brain would look like.
After I wrote this I took a deep look at myself...and yes I agree that I am already an asshole so im going to keep the ipad. Now I need to find a case to keep it in that REALLY stands out to make sure people what its contents are.
Thanks people! (jerkoffs:)
My wife just got me one for the birthday. So im going to turn into an asshole? Is this what I have to look forward to? Maybe I should return it or blame my new-found sense of self importance on her!
The Iphone is a fad? And what I got from that is you are (or think you are) clearly superior because you dont own/use anything made by Apple, MS or Adobe.
Yes you do indeed rule (and yes im being sarcastic).
I had read a few articles and spoke with a few people that there actually was a reason they didnt just plug it up. There were some issues concerning the seabed and if they just 'plugged' it there could be some disruption to the seabed and possibly cause more problems.
Who knows if this is true or not but I thought it was kind of interesting. I mean when you think about it, why would they really want this crap going all over the place when it just keeps costing them more money to clean up.
Im hoping there is some truth to this and that was the reason they took their sweet ass time...but again who knows. Im glad they got this in place and there is finally some relief.
I wonder if he was related to my old boss who called me up on my vacation to see if his name and number were on the contact page on the company website. To tough for him to actually look I guess.
Right plus they fessed up to having obtained this data 'accidentally'. I think it would be different if they never said anything then it was discovered they had the data all along.
Personally I don't think Google did anything wrong here. If this data was just out there, unencrypted to where anyone with half a brain could get it then the users should be held accountable.
Exactly. People will complain about Gates just because he's Bill Gates. Someone on here said he is only motivated by making money? How does donating so much of his money and time to fighting Aids help his profit margin? We all know he and his company have done some bad stuff but he has donated more than I think just about anyone.
Funny how people forget about the positive aspects a person possesses when it do much easier an convenient to just complain about them.
This happens all the time with pregnant women with no insurance going to the emergency room. I mean that baby is coming out one way or the other. But since they don't have the insurance are they not entitled to medical care for both the mother and the child?

Im just thinking more and more that maybe the movie 'Idiocracy' might really be our future after all.
oh...we can NOW!

This is the new future. We're already in 'that' old future.

this is slashdot. People are just going to bitch about anything and everything because they can. There are just WAY to many negative people on here.

“Hayabusa capsule yields gas,” declared one newspaper headline. “Vapor gives us hope”
The newspaper headlines say it all! Hopefully they get something from all the problems they encountered.
nice!

Are they blocking the installation of the flash plug in?
I have been looking for a 'holistic approach to my power management'.

Sharks with laser beams!!
How can it be the "worst year over year decline since June 2009" when this is only 11 months since then? Weird phrasing
Then we will have to start up a *NEW* social networking site that promises privacy..
Isnt this just Apples new way of selling iphones for $4000-$5000 a pop?
