I don't have a horse in either race, but I'm curious - Have any blind studies been done to determine if vinyl does indeed sound better? My audiophile father-in-law would tell you HD-CD sounds better than vinyl, but I don't have the ears to tell either way...

If you ever watch CNN (TV) you will see continuous false information and it is managed by The Whitehouse personally.

You really telling me that programs like Fareed Zakaria's GPS are 'false information managed by the White House?'

Have you even watched a few episodes?

Saying things like this completely blow your credibility.

I have no clue what this even means.

Did you order the Code Red?

This is one of the reasons I much prefer near-term science fiction like Andy Weir's "The Martian."

I remember reading The Foundation Trilogy as a kid and thinking it was preposterous reading a story set thousands of years in the future, as we'd have no idea how humanity would look at behave.

You HAVE to have wings for space!

Dude, they're not wings, they're "S-Foils." Get with the program.

What kind of Internet connection does Sony Pictures have? To ex-filtrate 100 TB of data is going to take a while, no matter how you cut it. My guess is that number is significantly inflated.

Who says this was done over the internet?

Send in a North Korean agent posing as a janitor to jack into the network from the inside. Plug in a device, let it download, then come get it the next night.

Hey Anonymous Coward, who said I was looking for sympathy? I was explaining why I don't contribute to Open Source.

The Chromebooks aren't going to last more than a few months

I work for a company that sells technology into K12. We have many education customers that are 2+ years into their Chromebook deployments.

Non-Coders, Why Aren't You Contributing To Open Source?

Time.

Two kids, aged 4 and 6. Golden Retriever. House with a 'to do' list as long as my arm.

I've been 98% cashless since the early 90s and never have more than a few dollars on me at any given time

If you live somewhere where a natural disaster is a possibility (earthquake / hurricane / tornado) it's prudent to have a stash of small denomination cash that you have easy access to (100 five-dollar bills, for example). Generally when disaster strikes things revert to a cash (or barter) economy.

Is it just me, or have we now reached the point where people who drive drunk just aren't affected by 'external influences?'

Threat of a large fine doesn't stop them, nor does threat of jail, threat of loss of driving privileges or threat of loss of their vehicle.

Threat that they might injure or kill others, themselves or passengers doesn't influence their behaviour either.

So sure, embarrass them with a tweet, but will the risk of embarrassment really decrease drunks on the road? I think not...

What exactly makes this a "space" telescope?

Presumably the fact that it is peering into space and not your neighbour's bedroom window or ships on the horizon.

The advantage is their family back home costs 1/10th as much as yours to provide for.

Same thing happens in the USA, though. It's certainly not 1/10th, but the cost of living in Sioux City is considerably lower than it is in San Francisco.

Not some half-a$$ed go cart that can't keep up in traffic.

I didn't realize the hundreds of Prius taxis that are zooming all over my city can't keep up in traffic. You learn something new every day.

I'll also have to let my friend who just drove his Prius cross-country that it couldn't keep up.
