What's wrong with that? It combines the impressive safety of nuclear fission with the emission-free awesomeness of fossil fuels AND the completely non-existent risk of an oil spill polluting an entire ocean. Best of three worlds!
It's a bit hard to convincingly fake taking a phone call when your phone is not ringing.
Maybe someone should make a smartphone application that could react to some kind of surreptitious gesture and make the phone ring. After a short delay to avoid making it obvious.
You’ll be asked to select one of your Facebook friends whom you believe is most likely to know the “target person” that has been assigned to you. A message will then be sent from friend to friend until you get it to the “target person.” The goal is to do this in as few steps as possible.
One of the crucial points of the Small World thing is that you can't predict your indirect acquaintances (or even the regions/groups they are in) more than one or at most two degrees away. We don't have some kind of global routing table in our head. I have dozens of friends in the US. It's quite possible that one of them is related to a former classmate of a relative of a former colleague of someone who knows Obama. Even assuming this is the case, I have no way of guessing who that would be.
Instead of relying on people's random guesses, it would be far more sound to throw computing power at the problem. The pass-the-parcel experiment is traditionally used because this is not possible in practice. If only Yahoo had a lot of computers dedicated to analyzing link networks and Facebook had a huge database of interpersonal relationships...
Scientists said we could be fucked, and now correct this to say we're really really fucked. Yes, clearly, the most likely interpretation is we're not fucked at all.
Bringing your own drink into a movie theater deprives the management from its right to sell you stuff, and benefits from the movie which is subsidized by those side profits. Even if you paid for the movie, you get it cheaper than someone who bought the drink.
The expectation that HTML5 would end compatibility issues is not only unrealistic, but completely ridiculous. Vendors and developers have extended, misunderstood, incorrectly implemented and violated standards since the web began, and a more complex and more powerful standard only offers more ways to do so.
This is inaccurate; however, people who consider endorsing civil rights for minorities equivalent to endorsing muslim terrorism definitely meet the criteria.
Not enough to be a danger to democracy, but enough to be trouble.
The main nationalist party (NPD) is estimated at 7000 members and reached 1.5% in the last federal election, but is represented in two state parliaments (Saxony and Mecklenburg-Vorpommern) at around 5-7%. Not all of these members and voters are radical or violent enough to be called Neo-Nazis, but there are still quite a lot.
(There are also other nationalist parties, which are smaller.)
1. The internet is really complicated and involves quantum something-or-other. 2. Asian philosophy is all about mysticism, non-materialism and shit. 3. Therefore, Asians are superior at cyber-warfare, qed.
Because the people whose job it is to determine what is authentic in the world of documents are mostly officials who have only just come to terms with fax machines.
So the solution is to design things that are so obviously insecure no hacker will even bother to play with it? That's not the security I'd feel comfortable with.

I know many people who insist on right-clicking and using the context menu, or (worse) the Edit toolbar menu. It's painful to watch.
Yeah, it actually took two attempts to adjust his aim. That's where the dinosaurs went.
And after reading this story, the FBI circulated a memo instructing that the SSID should be changed to TOTALLY_NOT_FBI_SURVEILLANCE from now on.
Apparently, most of the current spam is aimed at building new botnets. Which is sort of what you'd expect after a lot of botnets are taken down.
if it weren't for that meddling Google!

In a 4D display the game would have to render the objects that will be there at some future point, too.
That indeed takes balls.
Disbarment? More like impersonation of a legal professional.

The market watcher defines 'success rate' as the percentage of search queries that result in a visit to a website.
What matters is the much harder to measure percentage of search queries that result in a visit to a website that actually contains what you want.
I thought it was technically still September 1993 anyway.
You're telling me that the guy who determines whether the airplane stays in the air or not might be carrying a weapon? SCARY!

I guess that's theft too?

If there were even a tiny fraction of exceptions, things would get very ugly...

They should be banning private ownership of cellphones, which are obviously highly effective as terrorist weapons.
