You have just provided another compelling argument against driverless cars.

A computer may have faster reaction times, but it first needs to determine that an emergency is in fact happening and decide just *how* to react. How much do you trust an AI to recognise a pot hole ahead, a damaged bridge, a cyclist, a child? How much do you trust an AI to make the call whether it's best to hit something or try and avoid it? Hazards such as other accidents, breakdowns, stock crossing, officers directing traffic happen *all the time* on roads.
Ability to make these split-second decisions is vital for any driver, human or otherwise. Are you trying to tell me that an AI exists that can cope with these situations? If so, where's Myles Dyson when we need him?
Is there anyone here who is using Google Fiber?
I would be curious to know how well home servers (www, email, SSH) perform when on this, especially given Google Fiber's original prohibitive TOS and Google's desire for you to keep everything on their servers. I see they have updated their TOS since the EFF kicked up a stink, but would like to hear from anyone who is actually using it.

Are you sure you weren't just watching YouTube with the HTML5 renderer?
I use OwnCloud for that sort of thing. It's a little slower, but it's a hell of a lot more secure than Dropbox and no silly limits on storage, other than what size hard drives my company can afford
It's nice that all these huge companies are so interested in control of everyone's data.
I think I'll stick with my OwnCloud server for syncing files across devices for the time being, thanks.
You must be new here.
Surely Social Security is just a savings scheme for the wealthy, no? What's the pension worth where you live? Still enough to live on I hope.
Man I remember those BT878 cards. Leadtek WinFast 2000 in my case. Terrific cards that, as you say, just worked in Linux.
That is not discoverable.
Where's the command for "Please show me the DTP programs on this computer"?
For a FLOSS alternative to Ghost I now use and highly recommend Clonezilla.
It's amazing what an all-expenses-paid vacation to the Bahamas can do for one's point of view...
Also drop the " censor, censor, censor" rhetoric... You are free to publish this anywhere else. Why don't you just make a site with rejected wikipedia articles, where people can work on them till wikipedia is ready to accept them.
Using MediaWiki as a nice touch.
I guess I think of it as if you leave your front door open, how much blame must you accept when thieves come in and take your stuff?
What this country needs is a good five dollar plasma weapon.
