LOL.....
I hope they succeed. I also note that most of the battery innovation is coming from companies other than those that have dominated the battery market for decades.
But a corporate saying "safe enough for commercial use" is inviting some funny looks. There are loads of products that came to market that weren't..... really..... Safe.
Terraforming Mars would be an excellent project. Job number 1 would be recreating a magnetic field around Mars....or least the parts we want to inhabit first.
Agreed. She is a busy, buddy, bright, ambitious lightweight. How do I know?
She's a Republican. Look at them. Not a single, credible person in the entire party.
Is it something in the food? Too much of America is now a very special kind of stupid. Did religion do it? Why are so many note so incredibly dumb? Is it two generations of TV?
My PC is one that I installed a legal copy of Windows 7 Professional myself. It has no system reserved position, apparently. So the Win 10 upgrader looks for the system reserved partition it expected to find on a store-bought preload, doesn't find it and informs me that my system can't be updated.
Fine!
But please stop offering the upgrade then. You already know you can't do it.
I wonder if I bought a box of Win10 if it would upgrade. Probably not.
We had a house fire and my Win7 DVD was damaged. I have it, but it probably isn't readable.
True. Ultimately, there must be a universal living wage whether one works or not, because there won't be jobs to attach an income to. Robots will be doing most things.
The alternative is mass poverty and social chaos.
Yeah... But Thunderbird let's me keep a local copy of all my GMail. It's my protection against the day Google breaks my GMail account and there is no way to get a timely fix (assuming you can even work out how to contact them).
Apparently, ISIS twitter accounts were wishing their team in Paris good luck with their operations at least 72 hours before the attack.
No need to spy on people. Just pay attention.
To travel the stars, the human life span would have to be made much, much longer. To travel the stars, or radiation-vulnerable physical embodiment would have to be made far more robust. So either we develop a method of repairing damage almost instantly at the molecular level or we abandon wet ware in favor of firmware.
Something evolves from us will travel the stars. We just have to invent what that embodiment of us will be.
I'd happily walk the surface of an airless planet at whatever temperature ten thousand years from now and enjoy feeling the light of that sun on my external protective layer.
Atheism isn't a religion.
Dictatorial Communism was the revolutionary religion. It was basically a murderous hissy fit against how hard it is to change anything. To the revolutionaries it was obvious we all needed to share for the benefit of everyone. But so many people do not work that way that theses guys thought that killing the ones who refused to share would leave only those to do share.
It would be like the Army of Jesus killing everyone who didn't look after the poor and follow the Golden Rule.
The Dictatorship of the Proletariat was a secular religion.
For me, that "outdated text" proved the central document wasn't the word of God, and that invalidated the entire religion because it is built on nothing other than the central text. There is no other thing that can be claimed as "proof".

Govt: "You're using unbreakable encryption."
ISP: "No. We're not. We're pretty sure you can break it if you'd really want to."
Govt: "We can't break it."
ISP: "Don't believe you. You can break any thing with enough resources. What do you want us to do? Store data in plug Latin?"
Guess you weren't paying any attention to the consequences of warming / cooling. Or that this natural process is sometimes due to the activities of one or more species causing the climate to change. Like when the cyano-bacteria caused the atmosphere to be unbreathable for a billion years.
It's just natural. (And sometimes lethal).
Google had been disruptive across many areas. Maybe.... Fingers crossed.... They actually want to look for cures instead of of the lifelong palliatives we typically get, that provide revenue instead of good health.
When ANZ Bank in New Zealand outsourced offshore and sacked 500 staff, I switched to a smaller bank that doesn't outsource offshore. I'd been with ANZ for 23 years at that point. I wrote them a nice letter saying I was disappointed they had so little commitment to their community and the country. I didn't get a reply. But they are typical io the sort of business one does not want to deal with if you want your kids to have a future.
I deal with a reputable taxi company in Auckland. They do the job well. They have a large fleet.
Why would I want to take a chance on unregulated randos?
I guess if you have poor taxis where you live some guy in his car would possibly be better.
I've thought about this a lot over the years.
Power doesn't corrupt. Power enables those who are already corrupt. It allows them to scale their character flaws beyond their own immediate personal context. We don't notice them or suffer under then until they gain power. But they were always corrupt.

Texas again. "D'oh-llas" in particular. What a sad, dumb place.

Those cheatable voting machines could see Republicans in power for a while. They may be dumb as posts, but they know how to cheat.

Surely it has to be taken as a given that anything from Microsoft is fatally compromised with respect to privacy.

Then almost all American broadcasters would have to register their slavish allegiance to Israel.

It all makes so much sense now. Just one more way the military has wasted a mountain of money and wrecked a potential public asset.

What's your name? You come across as a bit negative. .....and so on....
