This is what happens when a company has too much money and has delusions of grandeur. All the execs start buying stuff without having a clue what they are going to do with it.
Today is St Patricks day! But I think the issue is that Slashdot has lost its focus: it used to be a site for hardcore (tech) news for nerds that mattered. Now it is mostly blogspam for people that have issues with education and H1B (theodp) and Hothardware and Ethan Siegel and stuff like this.
It isn't stealing. Maybe just copyright infringement. Anyhow, those players should give away their game items. They can make their money performing live and selling tshirts at their concerts.
As an added bonus, Google Inc now has a full profile of your and your wife's life. They know she has been looking for a job, everything. And you only had to pay hundreds of dollars for the privilege. So it is a win/win.
It doesn't require creativity. It just requires a deep understanding of the game. The game itself has a very restrictive set of rules. It isn't creative at all. BTW, game playing isn't AI at all. Computers are good at playing games with a restrictive set of rules. In fact that is the one thing they are best at: computers LOVE rules and require them to perform any task.
What difference does it make "per person". Not only people consume energy for running their households. Many of these installations are for industrial and commercial purposes. Lets just say the entire world installed 40GW of solar power and 16GW is from the US. Impressive.
Lots of things are subsidized by the government and our tax dollars. Like $550,000,000,000 PER YEAR IN DEFENSE SPENDING. More than 20 times the amount of the top 10 biggest spenders COMBINED. I'm not worried about tens of millions in subsidized alternative energy rebates that arguably helps to make our country cleaner. Get a grip people.

Yes. Thousands of cloud connected drones are what Google needs to make money.*

Just because they get hot doesn't mean it is a problem. Unless you are saying it is throttling performance because it is getting too hot?
I might buy it if it can run Kings Quest IV at max graphics.

No, he uses an Apple II+.
No. Because then we end up with Trump and Clinton as our choices.
A very non-offensive, centrist choice. He has no chance.
All the things you mentioned get you sex in return for them.
Nah. They are digital items. Anything digital can be copied freely. That is why DRM doesn't work.

And your 64bit quad core smartphone and modern computer have been thoroughly cracked by hackers at record speed. Progress!
Um. No one has even heard of "Here Maps". They just use the maps that come with Windows/Windows Phone.
Ah, I see. But they are calling browserhtml an "Experimental Servo browser built in HTML"
Yeah. Right.
Yes. As an added bonus it creates 10,000 more exploits for your favorite Russians to use. It is truly an open browser.
Shouldn't they call it browserjs? It seems like it is built in JavaScript not HTML like it claims.
100% correct.

After the first hour? 90% of people will be physically sick from VR after about 15 minutes. Go try it yourself and find out what happens!
