You missed the part where he said "I have a couple of those joysticks that run 'classic' 80s games... I hooked them up to the TV"?
I understand your problem. There was mention of "iPad" near the beginning and your brain went all mushy for the rest of the post. It happens don't feel bad about it.
Rubbish. There's no shortage of narcissists out there. All you have to do is come up with the right marketing strategy ("Let everybody know where you are!") and your database will be full in no time.
Anyone care to explain what happened to Mars (without the involving the Homo Sapiens Sapiens) ?
Ok, pay attention:
Mars has no magnetic field to divert the solar wind. This, combined with the lower gravity allowed Mars' atmosphere to escape and/or be blown away. There's still a bit left (Mars has wind), but not enough to prevent the water from evaporating.
Now, stop trying to be a smart-ass. Ignorant people trying to be smart-asses just make themselves look stupid.
Modern heat pumps are expensive and cranky of maintenance. But you don't heat your entire house with incandescents - the idea is that the 90% waste isn't 'waste' it's being utilized effeciently.
Except for the other six months of the year, when it's a negative

How would a "pure Android desktop" work?
It wouldn't, that's why they include *both*.
You drop into Android when you're not doing "desktop" work and it's better than dropping into the "Metro" part of Windows 8 - more apps, etc.
Microsoft has pretty much failed in the "tablet+app store" market. This is just recognizing the fact.
I don't think they would have shipped such dodgy products
Um, yes they did.
since it resulted in bankruptcy
You're right, it did.
My karate teacher will kick your Krav Maga teasher's ass. With or without a gun.
Forcing kids to do something is the best way to make them not want to do it.
The earth orbits where the sun is right now.
It does, but not for the reasons you claim: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_of_gravity
Never mind that, I finally got to play ET on the Atari VCS. It's awesome!
At the current download speeds it's going to take 2+ years to finish.
Try bittorrent. 43Gb would take me a few minutes.
I bet Ford hasn't thought of that. Maybe you'd better call and warn them before they bankrupt the company.
They bolted it to the chassis wrong?
Don't use those nasty digital currencies because we have no control over them and make no money on your transactions.
Just like cash, then.
Which has been around forever.
I'm using a 2TB Surface Pro Extra. It has 20% more Windows 8 than the standard Pro.
No problem. "Warm-white" LEDs have been available for a while now.
eg. http://www.ebay.com/itm/220865905075
LED's can't be switched on and off a lot? LOL!
I often switch mine on/off hundreds of times per second.
I think 60% ignorance is a good thing otherwise all the idiots would start stockpiling them.
No one would opt in so it's not a good idea.

recognizing people on the street is perfectly OK, you do it all the time with your built-in eyes.
I see lots of people on the street without knowing their name and personal profile.
He is claiming Bitcoins aren't property and thus can't be seized under federal law.
If they're not "property" then they can't belong to anybody, ie. him.
Ummmm ... hate to bring up Pesky Facts but he was guilty.
They can't come out and say he wasn't guilty, because he was. That was the law at the time. A very injust law, but very real.
There's still many countries where it's illegal to be gay, and many others who still don't give full legal rights to homosexuals.
It's idiocy, but religion isn't logical (and let's face it, it's religion that drives this...)

The authors intend to allow people to opt-out of the recognition database.
How about letting us opt in to the database?
What should we do if we're not hipsters?

Spokesweasel.
What a wonderful word. My day = exponentially better.
I think we can thank Scott Adams ("Dilbert") for that one.
It's always an, um, excellent, sign when the company's own spokesweasels are asking you to accept the 'we were incompetent, really!' excuse.
Yep. It's hilarious watching the weasels destroy a company by trying to avoid admitting something.
They should have said: "Hey, it's $10 million bucks, what would you have done?"
All they're denying is that they "secretly knew Dual EC DRBG was flawed".
No mention of $10 million payout. Until they deny receiving the money then this is just hot air and the Streisand effect will kill their company.
