It will go to the Supreme Court, they will handle it the same fashion they did "Citizens United" and we will be screwed, people make far too much money of this "surveillance" to ever give it up.
You want privacy? Stop using cell phones and the Internet, you've got no one to blame but yourself.
Aluminium doesn't like to flex much and it's quite stiff, the move from a chromoly bike frame to an aluminium one left my butt hurt for weeks. I have little faith in the American automotive manufacturers to do this correctly.
Some sites, like Huffingtonpost require a "registered" Facebook account, now as I said in the past you will see the real danger of Facebook emerge, it will be your de facto login for the Internet,.

I'll care what India has to say when they have cleaned up their country so something as simple as taking a breath outside the hotel doesn't make you sick.
China's moon landing is a lot of ho hum, the real story here is they felt good about dropping the billions to go where we have already been (for no real purpose) while multitudes in their country starve and die.
The entire mission was a hood ornament for some politicians cock.
The cards would come down in price if they became popular, most GPU price points drop rapidly after release (except for the higher end cards), power is a problem, power is always a problem.
Fix the power problem and you're the richest man/woman in the World.
For the software side what if a company took the approach of building out the hardware, optimizing an OS, and then writing their apps for that hardware? (like Apple). I'm actually asking because it seems like a good idea, who wouldn't want a database 12 times faster?

Do secret intelligence services often put their tactics up to a public vote?

That's only because it doesn't apply to them.
Awwww not YOLO Noodle?
And what pray tell will the Yakuza do with the radioactive waste?
So it's a scam.
Watching TV has the opposite effect.
PC+ Twice the exploits twice the bugs.

it used to be the same for CPU's, is it still that way?
Demand grows price drops.
What's cheaper a handful of high end GPU's bought in bulk or the standard DB hardware used today? And don't just say one or the other show some proof.
Train them, and address how they came to be hired.
The cards would come down in price if they became popular, most GPU price points drop rapidly after release (except for the higher end cards), power is a problem, power is always a problem.
