Can I sue oprah for unleashing irritating people like Dr. Phil with his questionable advise and Dr. Oz with his fecal fetish. Both of them cause me pain anytime I have to suffer through a broadcast someone else is watching.
Yeah slashdot has been quite opinionated in it submissions lately. Just post the dam stories and let the minions handle trolling and spin. Then we can judge it rightfully so.
Wow cause TFA says nothing about that. I still say a sensor that can detect things like this has already been done. Meters would be cheap and more cost effective.
Still does make sense. If the car moves, then the spot is taken for a time, then another would take it, and so on. Sounds like they just need some parking meters and meter maids.
How the fuck was this a troll???? If you have a car like the G-WIZ, a car that has been proven to be a less then quality vehicle, I would think in part replacement alone it would be a bad choice. Sure it won't put out the emissions of a SUV, but if compared to other cars it wouldn't be that great a advantage environmentally in the long run with all things considered.
Look, the french are not exactly known for thinking things through. THAT's a troll!!!
There are MANY lithium batteries that contain a liquid, not just lead acid batteries.
If the G-WIZ was a costly vehicle, then I say all would be fine, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was using NiCd or NiMH batteries. All are pretty nasty if they catch fire and melt regardless of if the contain liquids or solids.
Top Gear had one hit a stationary table at 10mph. It destroyed the front end and cracked the battery open which began to leak something. The announcer even pointed it out. That and sub 10mph is unrealistic at best even in paris traffic unless they have the worst traffic in the world, which they don't. More like 25 or 30 which can be catastrophic for the G-WIZ.
I read the garage door opener and was excited to see how it worked. It involves hooking a Linux box up to your door opener that is connected to the internet. That is kind of lame , certainly in environments where it would be impossible to put a pc in essentially a outdoor setting and I would suspect it wouldn't be that hard to do on other smart phones.
They predicted the same thing this last summer, though it was only for a week. They said that the northern light would be visible much further south then normal. Was in northern Michigan and saw nothing in the week that I was there, even setting a alarm to wake up at times they said the lights would be visible.
Was a little maddening since I had told others that they would be visible.
Yeah but if you drive a G-WIZ like the article suggested and get in a accident you will spill the contents of the batteries on to the road way because it is a death trap that falls apart on impact. So all that saved "upstream" will be lost in whatever battery chemicals are spilled in accidents, which in a city like Paris I would think would be many per day.
They have some stand alone DVR's on the market that might be cheaper then the HTPC option, but with a HTPC you could also use it to steam a lot of different video to your tv without having to worry if it is blocked like more and more media devices are becoming to certain sites. Large drives are cheap that adding more space is a easy option.
They didn't say their networks are compromised. To be on the safe side, they just assume they are.
Yep it's a RIAA/MPAA model. Assume guilt until proven otherwise, in this case compromised until proven otherwise. Makes you wonder what the NSA is really good for.
He choose this to wage a DDoS on? I can think of hundreds of sites better suited for this. How about taking down some known terrorists sites? Maybe the RIAA or MPAA?
Slashdot Mirror
Why is the US Bureau of Prisons deciding the punishment instead of a judge?
WOW. Bash Oprah and it gets a zero on slashdot? WTF has happened to the slashdot community?

He is in a trailer park, so a tornado could accomplish that just as easily with out all the collateral damage.

The DS has two processors but is not dual core.
According to TFA "Gone in 60 nanoseconds"

whoops. should read "where"
Sensors are sensors, what is so much harder about were they are buried?

Ah no they are not. Look it up.

Comcast's boxes are the worst. Even before the ads were on them, they moved S-L-O-W!! Definitely not the provider for channel surfers.

I am not worried about known organization. It's the unknowns and people that would like to exploit it for their own amusement.
Surely won't see me as a early adopter if they do come out with this.
I put this right up there with screen doors on submarines, Chocolate teapots, and rubber crutches.
Why is this on /.?
