Some things never change. Stupid gimboids complaining that everything has been invented and lamenting that all the groundbreaking science has been done is probably one of the few immutable things one can count on (like taxes).
The government does need to improve...how they collect and organize data on you. I am sure the government only laments that it doesn't have the information that Google, Apple, and Microsoft have. I wouldn't be surprised that---after all is said and done---the US ends up with a secret (from the general public) backdoor access to the information these companies have amassed in order to ensure that these companies do not "abuse" the information---in the name of homeland "security".
So, does the US government really think that asking the 3-largest privacy pirates to do something will actually work here? I think the only real progress that could be made is that these companies agree to a standard format for sharing your information among themselves.
Since nobody at RIM has access to the reality distortion field generating device, they are going to get smacked down hard. Besides, their device is, at best, an also-ran device. Had they come out with the Z10 a year or two earlier it would be a bit of a different story.
What about Cisco and Juniper. Cisco just dumped Linksys, but they still make routers. Juniper makes routers, too! Also, don't forget about so many routers that can be "upgraded" by installing dd-WRT.
Maybe the White House is coming to their senses. Giving it away for free is more work, while small, one-on-one meetings with a fat check are more productive.
Freedom of the press, at least in the USA, is freedom from government censure (as in in the first amendment of the US Constitution). There has always been a long-standing "tradition" of owners of media (like newspapers) to advance the agenda of the owner and to suppress the opposition.
No, it just means that the astronomers are using the telescope that doesn't have the mirror with the words "objects are closer than they appear" on it.
The inmates have the keys to the asylum. Separation of powers is moot when a single party controls the White House, the Senate, and a good portion of the House. If it were illegal, it would be called racketeering.
To be more accurate, I thought the TSA uniform's insignia should depict someone stacking trays. After all, doesn't the TSA stand for "Tray Stackers of America"?

I'll bet they don't even have an XP machine to do the testing on. Besides, if they did, would they be having problems with it...?
Right now, the "temporary" fix is to disable their Web AV.

Prepare to be assimilated.
Apparently, there isn't enough Kool-Aid in the EU to convince them that they were plugging it in wrong.

Way back in 2008 most of the hardware and software development was complete, so it should be compared to the original iPhone or the iPhone 3G.
I am glad they opted for the 3D printer. Imagine if they opted for a 2D printer. It would have been very disappointing.

Amen! Good riddance, indeed!

This is EXACTLY what I expected from a state run by "progressives".
The state motto should be "taking your bacon to make pork"
Nothing is "unpossible" when California wants to spend other people's cash!

Apparently, in chess circles, unless your rating exceeds your opponent, you must loose. If you don't, you must be cheating.

Just make sure that you are holding the paper correctly or it won't work!

Well, obviously the asteroid had passed through the trans-fat and high-fructose corn syrup nebulae between photos.
The use of barium for radiological studies is such a small fraction of the whole barium sulfate market. This shortage is a complete fabrication!

Screw the switches, think about all of the iPhone floating around LANL (and Congress)!
