Pretty much. The point is it's diverting attention from driving, its not about the button pushes or glances off the road. How much depends on the message/conversation. A request from someone to pick up a litre of milk? Not really a problem. A request to do a job interview on the phone? (real example) I had a problem with that:(
It's likely to have a chilling effect on those attending conferences generally, that someone can snap a phone photo, and assert with no proof that they made a joke that was off-colour/sexist, whatever, and then you get fired as a basis of that assertion. What next, you get fired from behaviour in the post-con drinks session?
Obama said the private sector couldn't afford such research, which puts the onus on government to keep it going.
The government cannot afford it even more than the private sector. Obama's teasing you with the notion that it will be funded from oil and gas funds, but I can see it going on the nation's 'credit card'
When you look at it, how many are? Very good, I mean. It'd follow the usual normal curve, where what is it 68% are within 1 SD of the mean? (stats aren't my real forte) Good would be 1 -2 (13.6%) and very good 2+ (2.1%)
I disagree. You obviously need to spend more time with pre-edited books- most novels before editing are barely readable.
Sadly true. Authors that are capable of self editing are a tiny minority. Five dollars would be a good price for the conditions attached to eBooks, that are not attached to dead-tree books. (not able to gift/sell the ebook when you're done with it, and with device specific DRM attached to it (I know, DRM is trivial to remove, but it's there))

That'd be one *hell* of a inducement to work for Virgin. Saaay boss, can I telecommute from L5?
Especially on /., which has a Beowulf cluster of memes.

Now that Jobs is gone we have not seen anything really radical come out of Apple.
It's not like he's been dead for YEARS...
A visual of a zombie Jobs holding up the latest iPhone at the product release is too much for me. iBraiiinss!
They're with Microsoft, in the section of the graph called 'other'
Moderate as ironic.
the recipients are possibly constipated? (back-history: castor-oil used to be a cure for constipation)
I suspect the mass would deform rather easily on its way out. I'd rather not do recovery.
Soylent based yoghurt, maybe.
I'm trying to visualise the yellow stickman type warning that would be appropriate for this. Anyone? Not the mundane circle/line mouth, either.
First ever use of an essentially diagnostic piece of kit as something to perform the operation.
boar was funnier, IMO. First, there was cow-tipping. Now, it's boar-rocking.

Fixing cell phone locking is a technical problem, not a political one.
Reading my /. email feed, I got "New pope selected using truth serum" - think of the questions you'd ask a prospective pope under the influence!

Using the snarky 'pro tip' pretty much says you aren't really a pro
Sounds like rationalising after the fact
" This is my rifle. This is my gun. This is for fighting, and this is for fun."
And yes, it is kind of a pink colour
Codec's stopped making fillum
Your meme's so fat...
And I was wondering what Darl McBride was doing these days.

Dishwasher for cloth/woven bags? Nooo! You use your *clothes* washing machine, not your *dish* washing machine.
