Just what we need in Melbourne - an IBM "Research" lab. Because we don't have anything like it. Except for maybe the CSIRO, who, IMO are more worthy than IBM for getting tax payer funded hand outs. Or RMIT, or Monash, Melbourne University... I'm betting this will be another flash in the pan development like the IBM centre at UoB which is essentially just IBM getting IT students to work for peanuts on their help desk.
And how would they pay for it? More income tax? More VAT/GST etc.? So then people can't afford the house that the power is supplied to.
Of course people would starve to death without food.
Or die of thirst without water.
Roads/Schools/Libraries (WTF?) are not free in any country. Sure, you may not walk up and pay on the day, but you pay for it through a multitude of taxes. Where do you think the goverment gets the money from to be able to provide these facilities? Oh I know, they print it... Right?
Says the person that can't press "Shift" and the first letter of each sentence. Or put a paragraph together. And let's not bother with your use of "your".
As has been pointed out already, this is just an example of someone hacking a device to improve it. Whether or not it's flakey doesn't really matter because he's showing that a tiny device can be improved - meaning that if you do get it right then you may be able to keep using the device, rather than it just sitting on a shelf gathering dust. Some people call this kind of activity a "Hobby". Go look it up. I'm sure you could find one that interests you.
Yeah - I tried the same thing. Apparently Akara is a "Black Eyed Pea" dish.
Of course I did so while thinking to myself that Buddhists probably don't spend a great deal of time on the Internet (referring to buddhist Monks rather than your average run-of-the-mill buddhist). But even so you'd think that someone would have documented the mathematical knowledge of Buddhist math geniuses...
Perhaps, oh genius, you'd like to tell us who the crook is? What? You don't know? It takes years - and generally a slip up, to identify just one SPAM king. And when they arrest them, 10 more step up to the plate. No doubt there are plenty of ppl investigating these crimes to try and arrest someone - hopefully they are smarter than you.
I'm betting your the kind of person that watches a "most wanted" show and says "why didn't they just arrest them when they took their mugshot photo"?
So I'm guessing you've never noticed any of the moron's posting "Frist P0st" or "goatse.cx"? Not to mention the significant number of other idiot's that make other worthless posts. Perhaps you don't consider offtopic, racist (for example) posts as SPAM?
Windoze 7 is, by far, the best version of Windoze ever produced. Sure it's different to XP - but that's just a matter of taking the time to learn it and accepting that with improvements, some things will change. It's faster than XP, as robust as XP and it has some great useability features that make XP look like the dated PoC that it actually is. But you don't appear to want to "change" so there's no real point in explaining it to you. We in the industry call you a "User". Users can't be bothered learning and are resistant to change, even if there are multiple benefits to that change.
Yeah - you should probably RTFA - that quote was from a caption of a picture showing the scientists wearing normal clothes, masks, goggles and gloves. None of which would do anything against radioactivity.
From TFA - "Scientists had to wear masks, goggles and gloves to work in the area"
Meanwhile the remainder of their body was burnt to a crisp by the radioactivity. Masks, goggles and gloves? This experiment was presumably organised by someone from the Simpsons... (My eyes - the goggles do nothing!)
Hmm yeah - that was my thought too. The NBN promises speeds of 100Mbps, so presumably the one person on the NBN is also an Optus customer and they've blown their quota. Not sure why you'd complain if you were shaped when you went over your quota though. That's the purpose of quota's...
A sheet of glass like in a picture frame (2mm) or like in an Aquarium (Several cm's). Maybe, being Microsoft, it starts out as thick as the picture frame glass, but it rapidly expands to be as thick as Aquarium glass. Then it breaks.
From TFA - "Just as speakers transform electric signals into sound, the opposite process -- of turning sound into a source of electrical power -- is possible"
I never would have guessed that. Maybe now they can make something capable of turning sound into electrical impulses. I will patent that idea I think - and call it an anti-speaker. Or an audioelectictransmogrifier for short.
A nice thought but he was taking the Shuriken out of Japan. And they're probably an allowed import to the US (Speculation there). Whether or not you can take something into a country is the responsibility of Customs at the destination, not the origin.
If the pedophiles want to complain that Labor is blocking their access to their pedophilia then let them.
Not that it's going to happen with independants and greens holding the balance of power.
And you probably don't know this, but technically it wasn't the Australian people that voted for this government. It was the cross-benchers. So don't tell us what we can or can't complain about.
The Cri-Cri has been around since it's maiden flight in 1973. To date there have been Internal Combustion and Jet (Google cricri jet) versions created. This is just the next step in the Cri-Cri's evolution.
As has been pointed out by others, most small aircraft (especially the aluminium ones) are just the pilot wrapped in tin foil. They are ALL designed to be light - not crashable.
So you're saying that WWII veteran's only have birthdays on November 11? Do you only honour your mother on Mothers day? Your Father on Fathers day? Your kids (if you have any) on International Childrens day? If your house burnt down and your family was saved by a firefighter that ran into the flames, risking his (or her) life, would you only thank him on May 4th - International Firefighters Day.
Perhaps you're annoyed because there isn't an officially recognised "International Douchebag Day". (when is your birthday?)

No GM is killing off idiots that don't wear a seatbelt, or who drive too fast, or who drink and drive. Those idiots are killing off innocent ppl.
So GM can be considered both evil (killing innocent ppl) or not (killing idiots).
Despite "popular" opinion you can live far easier without a gun than you can without a car.

Yeah - I'm guessing not by you though.
You forgot to say "Get off my lawn".

Ok, so you discover the front door is open on your local Nuclear Power Plant. Do you:
(a) Tell every man and his dog the door is open, or
(b) Tell the operator of the power station that the door is open?
A "tester" would go for (b). This guy went for (a).
Hmm yeah - that was my thought too. The NBN promises speeds of 100Mbps, so presumably the one person on the NBN is also an Optus customer and they've blown their quota. Not sure why you'd complain if you were shaped when you went over your quota though. That's the purpose of quota's...
I bet he googled the answer...

Please point us to an article where someones house was sold by hacking their e-mail account.
I'm wondering what happens now - does he make a claim on his insurance for a stolen house (and land)? Do the new owners lose their money/house?
I'm sure the previously requested link will clarify all this because it's obviously something that happens all the time.

While others enjoy alligator clips and car batteries.
That might be frowned upon in the workplace though.
When I Google "Bing" - you're first in the list of results. And second, and fourth....
Of course that unfairly disadvantages Bing Crosby. But he's dead. Just like Windows Live Search.

You could start by reading the Summary where it clearly states that the Troll is the company suing the holder of the expired patent.
