The moment just seems apropos to strip DHS of the unwarranted power it now has. Just as in the article, maybe we as a people should follow suite and start to greater question the motives of organizations that seek to "protect" us under the falsehood of potential terrorist attacks.
In addition, this console will also support the 3D functionality of the the 3DS. While you are playing, simply have two of your friends lift the flatscreen TV from each side and position it at various angles while you stand stationary.
The idea that children don't succeed creatively and academically because the testing for science and math revolves around asking those students to deliver consistent answers was not one of the statements I agree with.
Other than being the co-founder of Apple...who is he? My grandmother's brother co-founded Control Data Corp. I am directly related to him and can't entirely speak toward who he is. Though, I doubt he would make an asinine statement like "Woz" has. However, there were several points in the article involving his views on education and creativity that I did agree with. The idea that children don't succeed creatively and academically because the testing for science and math revolves around asking those students to deliver consistent answers.
The problem with education is not the standardized testing or the lack of long-term projects, its that parents do not give a shit and are not held accountable for the progress of their children. How would an educational system like he is suggesting work if parents don't enable their children to succeed in the current educational environment which involves short learning and testing cycles?
I invest a great deal of time into my son's education, making sure he not only does the work but also understands the concepts behind his work. He is a straight-A student enrolled in all AP courses...and while I personally can't speak to what would work for the masses, the attention and personal accountability that I have taken toward his education seems to be working.
'If you have the same answer as everyone else in math or science, you're intelligent.'"
Hmm, someone doesn't understand the importance of being able to reproduce the exact results for a given equation. I was required to show my work when I learned long division and that trend continued through trigonometry and calculus. The measurement of "intelligence" is being able to demonstrate that you understand the concepts behind the math and science you are doing...not just picking a random answer on a multiple choice question.
Affordable is relative. I have experienced a 50% reduction in income over the last 2 years plus the unemployment of my wife. Dropping $500-$1500 on a system 2-3 years ago would have been easily accomplished after a weeks worth of income...now I would have save for about six months for the low end components. I think most people are in this boat...
Google's point is no different than Microsoft's, Oracle's, Apple's etc
Well, it is a bit different. Motorola and others is/are locking their devices and eliminating the "openness" of the platform. This forces users to use vendor specific versions of the software which are not open. IMO, it is these vendors trying to maximize profit by exploiting a free technology and thus the users of that product. Google is in the right here by withholding until the vendors agree to stop exploiting the consumers.
Now, I don't know Linus, but I would bet that he would allow the source to be withheld on that basis...so long as it was done in good faith and only a temporary measure.
Didn't they ban that already? Writing your own songs reduces RIAA profits and hence must be illegal.
No, they banned recording the songs you may have written. Artists aren't allowed to profit off of the recorded works they create...only the companies that record the works are allowed to profit.

This is why he was dumped off the back of a ship with no witnesses. Its hard to be a martyr with no proof of death...
Now that Osama bin Fucktard is gone, it is time to take this police state back.
My God, its not a review of a book published by Packt.

Shouldn't the house and senate be planning a trip to yellowstone soon??? I am sick and tired about hearing how hard it is getting by on $175k a year.
I wonder how much Sony gave him...
Oops didn't finish that thought...
