nonsense, slashdot is an aging professional crowd. those of us who have been managers and executives know beyond a shadow of a doubt that 90% of MBA's are ignorant disposable tools.
haha, but I've found trees burn even when taken outside the forest.....something more to do with fuel and ignition event than little extra oxygen present
newspaper readership has already declined dramatically due to internet and broadcast sources. the environmental footprint from desktops, laptops, pda, phones, tablets is fearsome but these devices are used for other purposes also
you are wrong. get your hand out of my pocket. I have a wife and children to take care of, those *are* my responsibility. parasites and thieves who think I owe them money can die.
the investors in Big Oil make money, not oil When other energy sources become available, they will invest in those. they know we're coming off of peak oil production and they want their money flow. they just want their big piece of the action.
I have natural gas taps in my house. Some people have fuel oil delivered. Anyway, even if a car can be recharged in minutes at a station, it could also be charged overnight when needed.
Of course I know they made cars without power steering, for half my life that wasn't standard. but I've driven plenty of pre-1980 cars with broken power steering and parallel parked them, yes turning the steering wheel while vehicle stopped. just annoying. you're just a wimp, is all. get up from the keyboard and exercise.
pffft, anyone can download mod from internet. I'm telling you, you can do that now just as you could ten years ago. so what? you change the timing, fuel mixture, etc. maybe you shorten your engine life. maybe you get terrible gas mileage. so what? not a threat to anyone's life.
and in the year 2000 oral sex was illegal in 18 states, but most people did it anyway. turn the clock back to 1970 and it was illegal in almost all states, and most people did it anyway.
people already modding cars including computer systems and that is NOT one of leading cause of accidents, not even on list. impatience, carelessness are the two biggies, drunken driving.....
a non-issue, you're more likely to get struck by lightning than hurt or killed by someone who made unsafe car mod. not a credible threat.
interested people already modify the car's computer(s). if your car won't stop when its blue-screened you bought a poorly designd (and perhaps overpriced) piece of shit. all good cars can steer and stop when "blue-screened". and by the way, if you can't steer your car without power steering assist you're a pussy who should stay in the basement. parallel parking with a broken power steering belt is merely annoying

being permeable to oxygen and being open to air are not equivalent
some do that, most don't

just the carbon containing ones add to the global carbon burden, we need to switch to carbon-neutral pure nickel-iron asteroids and it'll all be good
flying cars have been around since the 1940s. if you don't have one it's your own fault

more than one tenth of mexico already moved to the USA, what's another tenth more?

because the gasoline in your car and the natural gas lines in your home don't have the catch fire and scream problem?
so who said there would be high concentrations of oxygen? do things burst into flames near forests and algae ponds?

so every new electric car gets a not-a-new battery from the common pool at a discount. perception problem solved.

it is not the governments job to feed you. you are responsible for yourself.

give it a few weeks....

more people have read Stephson's books than have used desktop Linux.

I'll agree Windows is good for games. I've been playing .mkv files for years though in Linux, yup with proprietary graphics driver
correct, but the problems are the same.
so the average user is dumber and less discerning than a sack of shit. thank you for the stats.
