It's not flawed at all, it's just a position you disagree with. You're an accomplice in any illegal activity if you fail to take any steps to prevent it.
Nope.
Cars have to have insurance, etc. for a reason, it's illegal to drive a car without it, without a license, etc.. When you lend a car to somebody you're legally responsible for making sure the other person is allowed to do so.
You're joking of course, the prop is needed to power the aircraft so it wouldn't work.
What you need is small trailing generators - in the airflow no longer needed by the aircraft. Two small generators behind each wingtip and a larger one behind the tail could extend the range by about 20%.
Um, it isn't. The board will cost more than a Pi. Then there's the CPU. Oh, and the RAM. And there's no SD card slot so it has no storage without buying an add-on.
... except that the "rounded corners" weren't patented. Rather, the entire and specific aesthetic design of a tablet computer was patented, in a very narrow design patent.
If this is your justification for "throwing out the entire USPTO," you're going to need to work a lot harder to convince anyone.
If they were worried about the little hidden magnetic strips for attaching covers or stuff like that you might have a point. They aren't, they're arguing about the rounded corners.
I hope the MPAA are going to be consistent in their prosecution of this. By their accounting he deserves 2000 year in prison and a few trillion in fines. If it was me I'd certainly get the book thrown at me.
Yeah, it's a joke, but it's also awfully revealing about how behind-the-times Hollywood's business practices really are.
Hollywood distributes movies both digitally and on film. Not all theatres have converted - in fact only a small portion of them are fully digital. So this is a matter of Hollywood serving their customers - if they stopped film distribution, then most cinemas would close their doors.
It's nothing to do with formats, it's to do with how people consume their media these days.
Hollywood wants people to get up and go to special places on a timetable they decide. Meanwhile the people have screens in their own houses and prefer to watch when they feel like it.
Same with music: People don't want CDs that they have to sit in a special place in the house to listen to. People want the ten latest songs in a small device they can carry with them.
This is why "pirates" are prospering - they give people what they want.
Never mind people with sight problems, I want this to recreate the early days of internet porn when 98 pixels and eight different colors was high resolution.
It's great that the people behind this want to make names for themselves, but we need to think - and plan and budget - much bigger than this if we truly want a definitive answer. This plan with a spaghetti western budget won't give us one.
An even better plan is to do a few simple experiments do help decide on what the big plan should be. If we can eliminate a few things first then it can make the big plan a whole lot cheaper.

House Passes CISPA

· Score: 3, Insightful
I like the way it says "CISPA allows internet service providers to share Internet 'threat' information with government agencies".
"Allows"
Worded like that it almost sounds like it will be optional...
Think about it: What kind of man signs up to grope other men's genitals all day long? Nobody normal, that's for sure. Most guys would run a mile from that.

The real problem with C++ for kernel modules is: the language just sucks.

That actually says far more about Linus than it does about C++, just sayin'.
I think the assumption is that all the drives are old and have been run though the ringers.
"wringers", the word is "wringers"

WiFi isn't the same thing at all.
So it's genuine dickhattery.
You can bet they've installed all sorts of spyware on it...
Nothing 'amazing' about it. They found sensationalism sells more newspapers than telling balanced truth does. That's capitalism.
Where I get my stuff they let you borrow a truck for two hours when you spend over 100 Euros.
I'm sure that the plug in hybrid plane has other advantages.
It will be very quiet...most light aircraft need you to shout in to microphones to talk to the guy sat next to you so that might be nice.
"Cost constraints"? On a $500,000 four-seater?
You're joking of course, the prop is needed to power the aircraft so it wouldn't work.

If he's building his own house why isn't he adding a huge underground dungeon where a two sided rack will fit easily?
If the price is on par with raspberry
Um, it isn't. The board will cost more than a Pi. Then there's the CPU. Oh, and the RAM. And there's no SD card slot so it has no storage without buying an add-on.
Mod parent up. What kind of knuckle-dragging mouth-breathers are getting access to the firehose these days?
Follow up: I can understand this from the Daily Telegraph, but Discovery channel is repeating it...

Expect it to be on Fox News with the next 20 minutes.
Who wrote that headline and how can we make him stop writing new ones.
He probably got plenty of clicks, which was his intention.
OTOH the non-thinkers probably just lost a few more brain cells so yes, he should be taken out back and shot.

Um, no.
Here's the actual design that Apple is basing its case on: http://www.scribd.com/doc/61944044/Community-Design-000181607-0001
Nothing about that is new, novel, or "specific".

Crash landed != crashed
Just sayin'
Came here to see somebody post "Airbus=Scarebus"...
Am leaving disappointed.
They don't need to pay any more, not with CISPA.
This does seem awfully two-faced - ban us from snooping, give themselves unlimited access, constitution be damned.

Obligatory comics and GIFs
Me too.
Seriously, what could be wrong with 48 fps?
Yep. How can possibly be worse?
I'm guessing these are the exact same bloggers who said HD TV was worthless too.

The TSA grunts are just doing their jobs, they aren't getting any kicks from patting down the kids.
You haven't seen the TSA pedophile arrest reports then?
