US servicemen rely on a variety of "small, incredibly sophisticated electronic components" found in night vision systems, radios and GPS devices and the failure of a single part could put a soldier at risk, the report said.
So in other words counterfeit resisters and capacitors.
If they replace backup generators with some alternate technology. I hope that they actually make sure it is reliable first. And that it stays reliable over time. (eg, three years later, you suddenly need it, does it still work?)
If the alternate energy source is renewable and reliable it should probably be the main source of energy rather than just for back-up purposes.
By the time the salesman left it wasn't us that was worn out, it was him. He must have been there 5 hours and we paid a fraction of the original price.
The Kirby is a really good product, but I do agree the way they are sold is not very good.
If the reason that the person doesn't want the automated vacuum is because it spreads dog shit all over the house because he doesn't pick up the dog shit, then perhaps that person shouldn't have a dog inside, or no dog at all.
If the dog poops inside don't keep it inside, or keep close supervision of it to make sure it doesn't poop inside.
If the dog is pooping in your residence then it really is your fault and not the dogs, but the simple solution is to get rid of the dog rather than fix the owner.
If all the money spent on machines of war, was put towards something like, say, space travel, maybe we could achieve faster-than-light travel.
Just throwing money at a problem won't solve all problems.
Some problems are so far away from us scientifically that we don't even know the questions to ask that will get us to the point of forming a theory of how to achieve such a goal.
it's not going to revive lost speech centers for example
The device is able to read neural activity, and playback neural activity. Lets say the speech center is lost, when this technology is a little more mature you could pump speech center communications to the different parts of the brain while offloading the actual processing to a device.
Looks like it we might just see cyberneticly augmented intelligence in our lifetimes after all.
Considering he was a self made billionaire and didn't inherit what he lost I would have to say he is pretty damn smart and you might want to rethink how your life has gone so far.
Considering the only evidence of that is a google street view picture of a hummer parked on the street next to his place, but not parked behind the gate on the actual property, you may be reading too much into things.
They have access to a continuing source for every part that goes in to those computers and will for some time.
They may have spare parts till the end of time, but that doesn't mean they will build a computer out of the spare parts that are in the spare parts warehouses scattered around the world.
It is a business reality, although I don't buy for a large corporation, I take orders and give quotes as part of my job.
Quotes may say 30 days, but shit happens and sometimes those items are just plain no longer available. They may have had a stock of the servers you wanted, but they sold out before you placed your order.

we were worried earlier that if we were rolled into a business that focused entirely on news, we'd be expected to conform to company standards
Is that why you guys were trying to put out video submissions?

That is the most interesting comment I have read in awhile.

If you want to know how bad it is, if you're cleaning your carpets using one, borrow a Dyson and see how much crap it'll pick up.
Yea, the see how much more it picks up demonstration is the reason we have a Kirby.

Never an indoor one.

Seriously, what kind of tool mods this fake moralistic crap up?
The kind that has perspective.
We didn't just copy, we straight up took the people and tools necessary to advance our aerospace technology.
Yes, but those old phones had a separate handset you could hold close to your face.
If you mount a smart phone to the wall you'll end up having to hold your head up against the wall the whole time you use it.
I thought the brain damaged cocaine monkeys played FPS's, not MMO's?
So next can we simulate brain damage in these researchers by feeding them cocaine?
Yea! That will teach them, force them to snort cocaine.
So when is it going to be turned into a brainwashing device to make sure you love the Dear Leader?
Right after it is used on the criminally insane and pedophiles to make them productive members of society.

I was thinking closer to Data.
But will the American consumer develop a taste for exotic insanity or prefer the home grown domestic stuff?

How are you supposed to build a posting history if you can't post without a posting history though?
Do you really think this is the first time this person has posted here?
New account has only posted to this story.
Posted the very second one was able to post even though this account is not a subscriber.
Has a very linux sounding username, but is very obviously shilling for microsoft.
I don't accuse every fanbois of being a shill, just those who follow that M.O.
Which android devices can you not install Google Play on?
Yes, but you were in after the MS trolls and shills created new accounts and started posting bullshit beginning with the first post.
I wouldn't mind the shills too much if they would just keep to one damn account and not create an entirely new account to shill with for each story.
