As far as I understand, in practice using a supercap isn't much different from using a battery. The energy density might be different but it's not like they magically create energy from thin air. They still need to be charged.
Or are we talking energy densities that would last for the entire life of a device here?
What the NSA is doing must be OK because it doesn't target the "American people". All the news and press conferences just concentrate on reassuring people that "American people" are not being spied on.
It's OK to spy on people from all those foreign countries though.
I'm fully aware that given the correct technology and parameters this is well in the realm of possibility. The particular video just doesn't instil confidence in me.
Because as long as XP exists, Microsoft isn't the only one that will be forced to support it. Old software has to eventually die to drop some of the backwards compatibility burden and make way for progress.
Well, for one they only seem to really work for US locations and I'm quite a ways from there. ParkMe did find some nearby results but the information was wildly wrong.
A brilliant combination of real software and fake GUIs on the same screen - they obviously had a product placement deal with Microsoft, and in one scene they literally dragged a file from SkyDrive into the usual bleeping "FBI Database Lookup" window. I wish I had a.gif of that...

Then you'd need a clause in the contract that binds Tesla to come up with a way to hold up their promise even in the case that they decide to sell.

And no matter how much marketing jargon you spew at people, "the cloud" is still just a bunch of servers. Stop lying.
You learn something new every day!

If they hadn't cut small parts out of their video every time the pen was shown in action.

"XP support is over" my ass.
Meanwhile in Finland, everything and everybody has a wireless payment terminal. I once even saw a street musician with one for tips...
Google is publishing more information! And some people might use that for EVIL! Oh no!
Huh? Security was completely irrelevant at some point in the recent past? When exactly?
A big ancient expensive government-backed system is full of security flaws.
So let me get this straight, it's perfectly OK to kill people with drones as long as they're not American citizens?
How would that even work? It has to broadcast your position. To Facebook. And once the first "triangulate your friends" app comes out, to everybody.

No! Nobody in their right mind should be "programming" in VBA. Especially not kids. Who the hell wrote this article!?
What? A company whose revenue is mostly based on targeted ads TRACKS people? Oh no! How could they do this to us!
Is it even possible for that to sound the least bit safe to any sane individual?
I'm sure we all already knew this though.
Does it make any practical difference? Is there any point to this post?

I thought this was a commonly known fact.
We could also add "service". SPaaS - Solution Platform as a Service.
Not as bad a "solution". I've seen knives marketed as "cutting solutions".
