No it is not.

Because everyone has experience with MS already, with their computers.

Now ask them if they also want that kind of experience on their phones.

Drive can easily be crushed by corporate rules.

You *could* work on something to make processes better. And since you're in the middle of the work it's perfectly suited for the job.

And then it conflicts with the goals management has decided on (but not acted on).

Yes. It's far better to not discuss these things, and leave it up to our betters and leaders to take care of it.

Return to your tasks.

If you've been following the housing market at all you'd know what it meant.

It means you owe more on your house than what it's worth. example: Bought a house for 200k, and now you can only sell it for 140k. You've paid off 30k of the loan, and now you can't sell it because you still owe the bank 170k.

Nothing can replace that face to face human touch.

We will be building Cylons to do that.

The problem with that in reality is that it's too easy to create sock puppets.

For a good discussion forum, you'd need to use your real name, and proof that you are you.

Everyone has to pay for others to provide Medical care. Always. No system can remove that fact.

NASA does basic science?

Let's just assume they could copy it and make a functional fleet. Then what? It's just a pilotless aircraft. If you're going to use it to attack someone, you'll face the same consequences.

No magic bullets here. Just another tool, which is an extension of the user.

Dude, the tent is full of fucking camels already.

Oh hell no. You're not going to turn this onto some kind of anti-obama thing.

After the attacks, there were a lot of people that wanted us to "Do something". They trusted the Government to do it right.

Well, they're not. And it's taken that long to spread out through the populace. AND we're facing a severe budget crunch.

Here's an idea, when you start seeing a groundswell of people who are against something that you're against, go with it. Unless you're for the TSA? That's the only reason I can think of that you're complaining now.

I want the screening in airports gone. Air test for explosives at the most.

You can get molten sodium at 105C?

I had to do this for a web store I was working on. The problem was no one knew the software except for some guy in Thailand.

So, 300$. And I had to send it back so it had more than just "Full name" and "Card #" as input fields.

If that's not how things work, then this Slashdot article wouldn't exist.
