Nope. But you can start your own version of Slashdot, and ask $9000 to join.

They don't even seem to have a running website yet.
I guess they just want to share the idea with the rest of us so that someone else can implement it.
The nice part of this product is that you can wear it without anyone noticing!
Look at Apple, they have no research department where actual scientists work (who publish).
If you're unfamiliar with it, check out research.microsoft.com, and you'll see what I mean.
Looks like your CNC machine could use some forms of feedback to make it more reliable.
The problem with wave farms is that they harness the gravitational power between Earth and the Moon.
If this energy is dissipated, this gravitational force is reduced, and as a consequence, the Moon will move towards the Earth in an increased pace.
I once used a word-processor that accidentally opened a pop-up saying:
"Help! I'm being held in an office in Seattle. Please contact the police!"
If they're going to change it, I suggest they change it well.
That is, support *functional* dependencies between processes, and caching of input/output. Automatic starting of processes when configurations change, etc. Right now, my computer has to reboot whenever stuff changes and some script does not handle the changes correctly (or simply does not run).
Also, whenever I reboot my system, I don't know if I will get back the system that I shut down (some configurations may have been changed and may have broken my system without me knowing it, only to cause a nightmare when I reboot the system, which is usually the worst possible moment). That has to be fixed as well.
The problem is that *any* IT problem can be solved eventually. And if your colleagues tell their managers that they can do it, where do you stand?
This is exactly what NSA has been doing, but this time it's "in the real world".
Why do they think people will accept this?
I'd like to keep my OSS free of U2-spam, thank you!
Nope. The "this product cannot be resold" label will kill the service.
Not sure if this is true. If Tor is designed to automatically utilize _excess_ bandwidth (i.e., what you paid for but do not use), then it's a different story.
The solution could be if Comcast could be paid for every MB that they carry.
Then Tor may actually become lucrative for Comcast.
Another advantage of the pay-for-use pricing model.
This raises the question of why Comcast would care.
Probably because (in their view) Tor is a huge waste of bandwidth: connections are not direct, but have to go through N different intermediate peers (which could all be Comcast subscribers).
Those who can, do; those who can't, write. Those who can't write work for the Bell Labs Record.
