I wanted to define the target as boiling but the article only speaks about warming the water with the microwave oven, which would happen when random photon emitted by the oven (most likely the outer surface of the oven) is absorbed by the cup.

Yeah, I hate these binary people, the truth is that the world is ternary.

Yup, Oracle is right on this case. The companies can provide support for Solaris, as in how to fix and configure things and also distribute OpenSolaris but distributing Solaris updates that have been downloaded from Oracle's password protected support site or providing login credentials to Oracle's support site is not ok.

Warming the water would only take seconds, boiling is of course measured with standard coffee cup, thus means 1.25 deciliters of water at sea level :)

The microwave in the example does suck, even the very first microwave oven we got in the 80s did boil a glass of water in 60 seconds.

I also hope that cheap UV-resins become available, unfortunately it seems that stereolithography companies want to go the inkjet route and keep their formulas secret so they can sell the print materials with higher margins for profit.

Sadly it seems they don't have 1-photon sensitive ccd. The article says:

They are sending single photon pulses of light repeatedly to the target position until they managed to capture one and then continue to scan the next "pixel" of the target. So this wont help with any of those things you listed.

Half of the cars I've had didn't come with ABS, ECU, airbag, security. They all did come with car radio/cassette player.

These aren't the drones you're looking for

Also it doesn't even require QR codes, you just need a link on the page with sqrl:// instead of http:/// to launch the authentication app.

I guess you didn't read the spec, no identifiable information needs to be sent.

Are you really eating more calories per day or do you just believe doing so. Did you keep track what you ate before your low-carb diet? I was on Atkins and noticed that I actually had trouble getting to 2000+kcals per day when eating stuff that was near zero carb. With high carb foods it is way too easy to reach 2000, 3000 or even 4000 kcals per day.

Too bad that FMRI isn't that accurate either:
"In 2007 on episode 93 of the TV program Mythbusters, the three members of the build team attempted to fool a non-automated fMRI test done by Cephos Corporation. Although two of the members were unsuccessful at fooling Cephos, the third member was able to successfully fool Steve Laken of Cephos, according to this member by keeping his mind in constant activity. The one out of three failure rate suggested that fMRI-based lie detection required further development"

Clever developer would allow people with 1st person view choose if they want to play with 1st person view players only or allow 3rd person view players too. And same option for 3rd person view players.

Sure sure, I was just pointing out that it is silly to demand civil unions and say that marriage is reserved for churches as if current churches wont allow gay marriage one can just create a new church that will allow it. So there is no point in doing that.
