Are you an American, or do you just share the same gene that tells you when something can't be easily fixed the best solution is to blow it up?
As opposed to the rest of the world that would rather just sit on their collective thumbs at the UN and that their empty resolutions will work without having to enforce them?
Sorry, but I'm tired of people ragging on the US. We're so evil because we liberated Iraq from an evil dictator (I'll abstain from the use of the world invasion.) and now we're also providing the largest chunk of relief money/logistical support to South Asia. Damn Americans!!! Always fighting for freedom and pumping money into areas that need help.
F*** off, and God Bless America!
Yeah, and plus the fact when grandma first got her computer, everyone told her that to use the internet, all she had to do was click the big "e". Put Firefox on there, and she's still going to find that big "e" somewhere. I've installed firefox on some people's machines and they still manage to find and use ie.
I have no idea how this guy spent 5 hours removing spyware. I have cleared off people's machines who have had 900 different adware related files/reg entries in about 20 min with ad-aware. Then I install Spyware Blaster and Firefox. I delete the IE shortcuts and set Firefox as the default. Also, I run their Windows Updates. It takes about 30 min altogether, and rarely (never so far) is there any problem with reoccuring adware.
My home machine has never had a problem with adware/spyware, and I go to "seedy" sites often. *shrugs* Maybe I'm lucky.
I'm imagining instead of usb thumb drives, something the size of a credit card that you could keep in yoru wallet that would hold all your info/mp3s/pr0n/whatever you want.
Well what I want to know, and what George probably wants to know, is are with we going to freeze or fry? Both would require very different courses of action. Both have different causes.
Yes, an Apple phone...it'd be the size of a business card, transparent, and you'd be able to dial, hangup, change options, volume, play music, type messages, etc all with one button!
I don't know if this would be an issue, but wouldn't a giant wifi network f*** over the smaller wifi networks around the city? Like those that use DHCP for client machines.
They need to do away with passwords/codes/pins altogether. Work on making things like finger print scanners or retinal scans more accurate and feasable to impliment. Then we could do away with passwords altogether.
Could this have other applications?

Say a doctor is performing a surgery, and suddenly needs help from a a more experienced surgeon. Get him on the net, get a live video feed of hte operation going, and the more experienced doctor can draw live diagrams (or whatever he needs to)to show the other what to do/where to go.
I remember back in the old days I used to use Hotline client to look for people to join Warcraft 2 games with my Mac. We'd have to exchange IP's to get the game going...now that was fun. (And more convenient than GameSpy)
Or maybe few Mac users (or PC users for that matter) use Gamespy? I don't, because it's big, slow, they want to charge for everything, the service sucks, and in general, it's worthless. Now Steam and Battle.net on the other hand...there are some good products.
Given the challenges facing today's nuclear reactors, they have long dreamed of harnessing the same energy source that powers the sun.
Uh...Solar power anyone?

Would this make it kind of like a Slashdot for regular/all kinds of news?
I for one welcome our new flower covered robot overlords!
Because these are underpaid Wal-Mart cashiers. They really couldn't care less if a tv rings up as 2 bucks or 200 bucks. Especially if they are busy.
Signing doesn't mean sh*t. This guy needs to stfu.

*Envisions Microsoft swooping in and buying out Firefox dev team.* Everyone has a price...

Woohoo! Now my 2mp camera can take 36000 pictures on one card! Now if only we can get battery life that high....
This doesn't effect me! I use mp3! HA!
No, no, not bad at all. It's just the way apple does things.

I wouldn't knock him for not acting yet.

NO no no...windows me would be too big to put on it...it's running windows ce!
That was kinda the point
how many birds are these going to kill. We sure don't want this to be like with the wind generators!!

Rather than "Oh, the humanity!", we'd have "Oh the connectivity!" as the stratelite crashes to the ground...

Technically, by using the sun's energy, your also using the energy source that hte sun does...just second hand
