Since it's not listed this would mean XP is safer than W7 or W8.

Hazzah!

This is the same company who set up operations to have people call a competitor then cancel the call later, thus costing the other company money.

The story was posted on Slashdot a while back which included a discussion of how burner phones were used so the same person could call multiple people.

Now we have this. Instead of reviewing the complaints and saying they will look into the issues, Uber's response is to criticize the reviewer.

Why admit something is wrong with your company when you can deflect the subject to the person doing the complaining?

They don't have tanks for that yet, but could easily replace existing gas tanks, or add new tanks, since all existing gas stations are built to accommodate large underground storage tanks.

I think you'd be better off sending Bruce Willis and a drill. Pull one of the Shuttles out of retirement, get J.J. Abrams to direct the thing and there is a chance that it would work out.

Obviously as more companies build Hydrogen cars, more refueling stations will be built. With a real 300 mile range you don't need them ofter to make long cross country trips possible.

If you think about it it's easier to convert existing stations to hydrogen refueling than it is to convert them to something like a supercharger station, so buildout of hydrogen stations will happen more rapidly as the percentage of hydrogen vehicles increases.

You're relying an awful lot on the service to do the vetting and the work of ensuring passenger (your) safety.

No more than I am with a "real" cab company, which you seem awfully comfortable trusting. Inherently you are going to be trusting one company to do the vetting, cab companies are no better and indeed often worse because there is no financial penalty for bad vetting.

A lot of regulations are preventative in nature

Yes - as in, preventing competition to the current monopoly. If you think they are usually "preventative" for customer harm, you are more delusional than I thought.

And that is exactly what this system is supposed to improve upon. By using two complementary technologies, they claim they can reliably transmit high quality data no matter what the weather. What isn't clear from TFA is how much of an improvement in speed or cost this is from plain ol microwaves. The unit shown in nice and compact - smaller than the large dishes used in high capacity microwave links - but TFA doesn't directly compare data speeds (or costs or really anything useful) so it's hard to make much of it.

Well it's about time...the vast cultural influence of Swedish video games here in the United States has just been too much. My brother got hooked on "Lutefisk Avenger," like he just can't stop playing it. I thought it was a bad sign when he re-designed his kitchen to look more like an IKEA showroom. Then he put mayonnaise in a toothpaste tube! If he starts becoming a computer hacker who fights Nazis I am going to have to take away his Super Nintendo.

Actually, that's pretty cool. The bot goes back and forth, kinda like a real worm. It would be interesting to scale this behavior up to several thousand 'neurons' (I'm sure somebody is going to try).

Initially read it as "A Woman's Mind in a Lego Body". Wasn't quite sure where to go from there so I squinted a little bit. Fortunately Timothy saved me from having to explain to my wife just what 'that stupid Slashdot article" is about.

The Singularity is coming. If we can't beat them with quality, we might just try overwhelming them with numbers.

At least the Iranians think this is a valid strategy.

How is that working for you? IT is just as opaque, confusing, contradictory as anything out there. If you really want to get away from 'cryptic signals of thin public account' you should probably pick up Tarot cards. Everything is right there.

Huh. Otherworld Computers (OWC) seems to be doing a reasonable business as a third party Apple peripherals / memory / support partner. There are others. No, the field isn't as big as for Windows stuff but it's big enough to get the job done. I haven't found the need to run Windows hardware for any reason for quite some time except for some weirdass stuff (and this week I'm looking at you, Yamaha) that are basically DOS programs that nobody has bothered to touch in decades.
