I don't follow, are you saying that if people weren't allowed to work on the kernel that they'd have more time for sex, or that Linus would have fathered alot of children while he was pissed (or f**ked drunk to anyone unfamiliar with the slang)?
I'm as big a fan of nuclear as the next person but you're painting a very one sided picture there. I haven't bothered to look, but I'm sure plenty of people die mining yellow cake etc. As with everything that's mined, and posibly more so for uranium, miners would have been dropping like flies in the early days of it.
Troll much? Anyway, you ommitted the word average from the original post, more advanced does not directly equate to better, and since you seem to know, exactly at what point in history did we become advanced?
If I understand it correctly, average life expectancy was probably closer to 20 in the stone age(for example). Though quite how that figure was reached I'm not sure. Anyway it's very important to clarify though that it's average life expectancy we're talking about here. It was low mainly because babies tended to have a high mortality rate, due to being eaten or whatever. People weren't sitting around the cave dying of old age at 30. If anything it's only in relatively recent years that we're living as long as our ancestors did. Our advanced culture has along with all the good things (like/.) given us disease, war, obesity, plenty of things to shave years off our lives.
hmmmm, easy to locate, only cost 50 euro... I just have this image of a guy getting paid to drive around all day retrieving balloons from trees roofs lakes etc to save presumably less than 50 quids worth of material per balloon. Might be easier to just offer a 10 quid finders fee per balloon.
Back home I can see this no problem, along with the occasional satellite whizzing past. I don't tend to stand around the city at night staring upwards but I'm quite sure I wouldn't see much for very long if I did.
I agree, you know you've spent too much on the phone if you're more concerned about the car having crushed your phone than anything else in the proximity to your pocket... That being said, shiny things do not last forever, they wear out and or become obsolete quite quickly. Generally speaking you get better value for money with last generation technology, ie stuff that was new last year. But if you want new stuff as it becomes available then you pay the premium. This has always been the case and is not news imo.
I only read the summary but it implied the battery would likely be in a moving vehicle, so yes to the first question. For the second question, if it was small enough that the user could wave it about, then I assume it would consume less than the person waving it.
From most of the articles I'm seeing, there doesn't appear to be any serious replacement for platinum in fuel cells. That's reason enough to rule them out for mainstream use.
Slashdot Mirror
so they're of the exact same type of touchscreen that's used for the iphone?
There's no sport in it if you can track them with GPS.
Can a third party develop apps on their own, can they be installed easily etc?

Not quoted verbatim but somewhat on topic I'd say.

might be easier to just draw dots on tennis ball.

Joule's process seems very similar to approaches that make biofuels using algae, although the company says it is not using algae
You can generally also haggle with the dealer if you pay cash. Depending on the car that could be a saving of 500 - 1000 easy.
You heard correctly, but Chuck wouldn't be happy if he found out you described it as a few grams of carbon
You should call it a WMD.

It must come with velcro on the back to hold it to your lap like in the picture.

And imagine the effort to insert all those coins!

"iPhone-like fluidity"
gimmie a break. How and why did you manage to fit a reference to the iphone into the summary.

Great argument, dicks fuck assholes, assholes just shit on everything, blah blah blah...

If you have anyone you've set up with a more secure alternative browser
Is it not a bit early to be deciding which browsers are more secure than IE8?
Hi, I'm Boliva, I find your ideas intriguing and would like to subscribe to your newsletter.
A whole day on broadband... An improvement to be sure, but I think the money would have been better spent on viagra.
