Sure, it would make most of us drive slower, just like blind corners or a slippery road surface would, but are you sure it would make things safer? Mabye someone gets their bonus based only upon how much they get the traffic speed down.
I wish I could use them here in Sweden. Wouldn't it be elegant and different to take out a check book when paying for something? I think it would. However, checks are so unusual here, that I don't even know which banks offer them without large fees. Does anyone know?
Since I live in Europe it would be expensive except I get pay-per-day for the country and that averages around 4 to 5 USD per day.
Does that mean you have a single SIM card (or rather, a UICC card, as I believe it's called) and use that in all countries or do you have to order a new one for every place you visit?
Editors, please do your job before you accept a story - that's an easy way to make Slashdot much better. In this particular story, it would have been easy - no research required. As I'm sure almost everyone here knows, m != M. Also, what is wrong with "b/s" instead of "bps"? (Also, how do I write non-ASCII characters here?)
I know what significant figures are, of course. The question is what they mean when they say that the accuracy decreases during the running of programs - as if they had the answer with excellent accuracy already from the start and then messed it up along the way.
According to the headline, the Australian senate says that open source (I guess they mean free software) is expensive, but they actually said that switching is expensive. The headline is supposed to provide us with the best possible understanding of the whole article, given the restricted space, not require us to read the article just to check if it agrees with the headline. Set higher standards, Slashdot!
And surely not many people believed that ThoughtCrime and big brother would ever really happen. But it is. If you don't believe me, there's certain keywords you should try Googling every night and see what happens to you.
That's not very useful information unless you tell us what words you had in mind.
what if you open the door? Will internet leak out of the room?
I suppose a double door or, more entertainingly, a revolving door, could help with this...
Have a look at this. We're intercepting an electromagnetic signal in the terahertz range and it seem to have some kind of beating. I think we just might have found a pulsar!
So what happens at that temperature? CO2 starts pooling as a liquid on the ground?
At atmospheric pressure, the transition from solid to gas, and vice versa, does not go via liquid. Have a look at the phase diagram of carbon dioxide. So, no pools on the ground.

It's actually fun to watch the few NASCAR races which aren't ovals.
I'd like to see that. Do you have a link to a video?
Hey! Someone must have hacked my account and posted with it! >-( Someone in this very room, even, since they heard what I was think...... !!!!!!!!
Should I comment on this story? Nah, it's not so important, what I have to say, anyway.
Unfortunately you are probably right.
Unfortunately?
Haha! Excellent! That's what I want.
it has some, but not deep, credibility
Then again, what sources do?

I have a relative in the business. They license the popular brand name like a franchise and make obscene amounts of profit.
I'm not sure I got it. Does your relative build hearing aids or is he a reseller?

an automata
I don't think that is the grammatical number you think it is.
Exactly what it says. Read about significant figures here.

What is that supposed to mean?
1e100 is the same as 1^100, which is a Googol, or if you're a google founder, spelled "Google"
I hope that was a typo.
Aren't those opposites?

At most, one less than infinity!
Sounds like a copyright term.
Tylenol means paracetamol, in case someone else wondered too.
Do you think that we can actually make air travel (and any other kind of travel, for that matter) truly secure?
Isn't it already as secure as anything else?
You do know there are countries where you can run to that you cant be extradited from.
Interesting. I'd love to see the list. Though I imagine it depends on which country you are running from, right?
I know, bad flydnkrtn, don't cite Wikipedia...
I think you misspel... Oh, I see.
