Or, they could just wait until either eyetracking systems or that "nouse" system of using your nose as a mouse becomes practical for small devices.
Even better, if they can integrate a system that reads input from electrodes implanted in your brain...That'll solve a lot of problems for these small devices
A few mere minutes and seems like every post is about how that quote was made up. Apparently, the typical Slashdotter will do anything in exchange for free karma.
Well, if you want to break into the journalism world, but you don't watch or read the news, this might help you get the gist of where you can go for news.
Alternatively, if you want to make a big splash with decent news coverage, don't try to do it near one of the big red dots, because there's already too much going on there.
It looks like they're trying to copy the Macintosh "all you need is one-button" approach. However, in this case, you only have a single "pixel" of output, so it's a much different situation.
I don't think I'd buy something with such poorly thought out UI...
Yeah, in case of emergency, you're more likely to see the label "Should have used stairs"

Here's what I do...think of the earth + space elevator as a figure skater. Right now, we're all tucked in an spinning quickly. But, as a figure skater moves his/her arms out, they begin to spin more slowly. Same kinetic energy as before, but a greater moment of inertia, so the speed is different.
Same with the space elevator--we're just "moving our arms out" so the whole thing spins slower.

Unless...they actually harnessed that great amount of energy in the capacitive effect of a long, conductive ribbon. Then we might have a much more efficient way of powering the elevator.
"Their bite is meant only as a touch but with thousands of razor sharp teeth it can also be deadly. I've seen divers who swim with full size (17 feet) Great Whites without a cage and escape harmless."
Your use of the word "escape" seems to indicate bias, as though they really are that dangerous...

Nah, Google was able to reduce their storage load at that instant because he took a swig of their Google Gulp and could memorize all his emails...
All the Linux & Apple users smugly smile, resting in the knowledge that they have no need for Windows...

I don't know if it's strictly "open source" but if you're into cooking, I must instead recommend the obligatory http://www.cookingforengineers.com/
Well, it'll either be a big splash or just another idea that's all washed up. Hopefully it catches on and starts to rock the boat.
Just great, it's bad enough that the slashdot effect cripples the intarweb...
I dunno...I clicked Start->Run and my operating system didn't find either of those.

any chance we can get that violinist and this pianist to perform together?
blindfolded, of course
You're right...now if he actually played Super Mario Brothers and beat the game (or even a level) while blindfolded, THAT would be impressive. :)
I can see the exchange now...somewhere in a muddy field, a cart goes by, while Gordon Moore comes out to meet it
CART MASTER: Bring out your dead!
GORDON MOORE: Here's one.
CART MASTER: Ninepence.
MOORE'S LAW: I'm not dead!
CART MASTER: What?
GORDON MOORE: Nothing. Here's your ninepence.
MOORE'S LAW: I'm not dead!
CART MASTER: 'Ere. He says he's not dead!
GORDON MOORE: Yes, he is.
MOORE'S LAW: I'm not!
CART MASTER: He isn't?
GORDON MOORE: Well, he will be soon. He's very ill.
MOORE'S LAW: I'm getting better!
GORDON MOORE: No, you're not. You'll be stone dead in a moment.
CART MASTER: Oh, I can't take him like that. It's against regulations.
MOORE'S LAW: I don't want to go on the cart!
GORDON MOORE: Oh, don't be such a baby.
CART MASTER: I can't take him.
MOORE'S LAW: I feel fine!
GORDON MOORE: Well, do us a favour.
CART MASTER: I can't.
GORDON MOORE: Well, can you hang around a couple of minutes? He won't be long.
CART MASTER: No, I've got to go to the Bernoulli's. They've lost nine laws today.
GORDON MOORE: Well, when's your next round?
CART MASTER: Thursday.
MOORE'S LAW: I think I'll go for a walk.
GORDON MOORE: You're not fooling anyone, you know. Look. Isn't there something you can do?
MOORE'S LAW: [singing] I feel happy. I feel happy. [whop]
GORDON MOORE: Ah, thanks very much.
CART MASTER: Not at all. See you on Thursday.
GORDON MOORE: Right. All right.

Well, for Slashdotters, there's at least one more reason:

The human touch can be deadly too. Let me tell you, any guy who touches an unfamiliar girl out of curiosity will likely meet a swift death.

Wouldn't that make it a not-so-great white shark?
