I was talking about the debian logo with the story. Apologies for not putting the tag. You must be a hit at parties too.

The Debian users are going to be pissed..
Are you just trolling? In case you are not:
Just because a company says that all they do is compute the stationary distribution from this matrix, one should not just take their word and relax. ( (sorry, but the buzzword that you used it not immediately relevant here.)
I love Google and I hope they come out clean, but you comment was unnecessary. It is not going to be an investigation into the soundness of mathematics.
Umm, actually some of those things are classified under YRO. Things that are not just don't fall into the scope of "news for nerds". You wouldn't debate OP if slashdot's tagline were "News for the color blind" just because color blind people care about their freedom too, would you?
Nothing personal, but what the fuck are you on about? I even tried skipping the main page hoping to see a story that you might have had in mind when you were typing that rant.
Apparently so do you, grandpa
'sell it (to target audience) as being.."
Is it possible that a widespread use of such antennas will lower the average temperature since it is tuned to mid range infra-red? They can sell it being super eco friendly
Woohoo!
Indian government tried to enforce family planning once in seventies and the people had such strong aversions that even now the government is having tough time convincing people that family planning is a good idea. (1.2 billion and counting rather fast).
Now why am I talking about population of India in a post about digital newsstands?
Because it explains my theory for what is happening.
See, the print media was freaking out about going out of business thanks to digital media. So what did they do? They brainwashed the bigshots at print media companies (remember, they still were major players then) to go all India on people about why digital media was better.
So the bosses start something like "show me your tits!" campaign on reader data. They couldn't do anything else because to successfully install a suicide button in their companies they had to pick an idea that could be explained as well-meaning. With "show me your tits!" campaign they could say, "We wanted to check for breast cancer!"
But what it actually does is freak out the people (user data being the proverbial tits) and they think that digital media is some sort of information pervert.
Explanation to share-holders: "We just wanted a better advertisement targeting."
Check.
Installation of suicide button.
Check.
And that, my friends, is what it is - a conspiracy that will ensure that digital media will always be a weak sibling to print media. And even slashdot was suckered into just propagating the suicide button.
You can't trust anything out there!
I mean here.. the internet, actually.
Just that?
My past-me was clogging the internet posting lame "Ahahahaha.. man; you killed me!" comments.
So actually, my past-me ate parts of everyone's donuts!
Ahahahaha.. man, you killed me!
Posts like these make me not regret all the hours I waste on slashdot reading (mostly) junk news and (mostly) predictable comments.
Thank you!
