Why such a push to tell people how old Earth they think it is. Give some practical reason why a non-scientist should even care about this?
This only matters to the bigots who want to bash religion to make themselves feel better.
If your religious beliefs are sound and resolute, why do you feel so threatened by something you shoudn't care about?
Given all the extensive cosmic surgery.
Why isn't it probing Uranus?
I believe the "could be" part, if it's just 10% faster s/he's right.
And an attempt by 2020 means more like 2026, and the US will have an incompatible slower version around 2030.
Jaded, I am.
You're being too damn optimistic.
What the fuck are they talking about? We don't even have 4G yet, and they are already talking about 5G?
I'm holding out for 6G.
Mageia handles the nvidia driver within it's packaging system. Automatic updates along with the kernel, easy installs, no problems. It's been this way since the Mandriva days. Mageia's a nice, no-hassle distro.
While surprisingly effective IRL, not so much on the Internet.
Subject apropos.
I'd like to see this happen to to Burnout: Paradise City, Red Dead Redemrtion and PAIN.

I see more +5 posts in this discussion than I have in any other Slashdot thread.

I haven't visited Slashdot since January, when all of that crap with the beta started happening.
So today, after visiting for the first time in six months, I am faced with a damning reality: Slashdot truly is dying.
As I scroll down the front page, I see story after story with fewer than 40 comments. Some have less than 15 comments, even hours after being posted!
This is truly a shame, for we have very few alternatives today. Reddit is full of hipsters of the vilest kind. HN is a haven of abusive moderation, censorship, and Silicon Valley groupthink. Stack Overflow will just close any discussion that isn't a basic jQuery question easily answered by looking at its docs.
I knew it would happen someday, but I am saddened to see that we have come upon that time. Slashdot, once the greatest discussion forum known to mankind, has been decimated. I weep.
