We've thought about buying an iPad for guests to use, but decided it wasn't right to knowingly let others use a computing platform that may have been compromised.
Is he really worried about an iPad being compromised compared to a windows box? It's pretty hard to accidentally mess up an iPad even visiting shady sites.
That would be a big downside - however, they also say they can get it a 200 mile range using Lithium ion batteries which is respectable. It could be that this one time use battery is to quell the complaints of people who say "But what if I want to road trip 500 miles into the middle of no-where!"
Sucking a quarter billion dollars from the economic recovery.
...and blowing it back into the Massachusetts economy through government spending!
Libertarians/Conservatives seems have a strange notion that when money goes to the government, it goes away forever, but apart from being the largest employer, governments spend in ways that can help the lesser off and often have restrictions on the money going a far.
But a lot of them aren't particularly innovative code wise - they're just convenient because Google hosts them. Google Wave had some interesting stuff in it, so they released that, but there are plenty of RSS aggregators out there and it's easy to code a new one.
That doesn't make it any better - for one, they can't send a DMCA request for a trademark issue. The responsible thing would be to contact the site owner, not the web host, and not with a legal document. Not that any of their claims are valid to begin with.
Like all those tax increases we didn't have in Obama's first term - He pushed for them every debate, eventually "compromised" on what the GOP wanted - no taxes for any reason.
If you've read the house budgets, they're basically a joke - Obama isn't going to repeal the health care act while at the same time cutting taxes for the rich, and the Republicans know that.
Right...because no company that donates to a campaign or has friends in the government should ever get money.
I'm guessing you don't know much about Solyndra. They had an amazing product. Much better, cleaner solar panels that would have sold and been profitable. The problem was China (where environmental concerns aren't an issue) started producing cheap solar panels and the price dropped dramatically which pushed Solyndra out of the market.
Presumably it could calibrate itself as long as the device has a compass/accelerometer and control over the vibration unit. The stand would have to work so the phone spins when it vibrates - I assume the iPhone has the proper shape or something that lets it do that.
This wasn't even a hard hack to get the game to run. It was a debug mode left in by the developers. A non-dev build should have compiler flags to not even include a mode like that, unless there's some benefit to having a feature end-users are not suppose to use.
Sounds like when EA said it connects to "the cloud", they actually meant to a handful of EA run servers instead. It doesn't seem like they have any of the characteristics of a cloud application compared to a normal server.
3/22 are joke reviews, a couple are just saying how easy it was to download, there are a handful of actual reviews that look into the gameplay and rating that while disqualifying the brokenness, and the rest are people saying "it's just a launch issue, it'll get better"
Well you know how dangerous a person can be when they have access to THREE golf clubs. I mean I guess you could throw them at someone, but might as well just get a bunch of rocks which I don't think are currently limited.
Is there a browser plugin out that removes those alerts yet? Do they start interfering with other traffic or could someone just go forever without acknowledging the alerts?
Wouldn't it be more appropriate to hold hearings on the program rather than obstruct confirmations? He's basically abusing senate rules (while crippling government - a tea party win) to talk about an unrelated subject. If it weren't drones it would have been another issue. It's not like drones just came into use this week.
Slashdot Mirror
Hope you can read Dutch. Either way, the TSA isn't going to notice/care
I know MS Word has a simple analysis that can tell you stuff like that. WordPerfect probably had something similar.

That's not actually true...The dinosaur, Commodore 64, and Linus Win9 articles all got into triple digits, not to mention a couple plain text ones.
Though I admit I avoided slashdot today because it didn't have real articles and was too much work to read the fake ones.

But it sure made driving to the airport a lot easier.

The letter they sent completely contradicts that though. There's really nothing in that statement that aligns with the DMCA notice.

Well that's what a compromise is...Republicans seem to think that a compromise is Obama doing only what they want (until recently).

I bet they'd be helpful to move people around during hurricanes.
How many successful online petitions have you seen? More than 0?
So basically if you're living in a first world country...
Well you can actually read the reviews:

But now how will NCIS find their buddies when they visit Texas? That's their favorite way to look up someone

We already do such attacks in Iraq/Afghanistan. American enemy combatants are treated much like any other enemy combatants.
