Probably because newer calcs are more expensive. Also, the nSpire is more locked down than the previous models - the 89 (Ti) can run (compiled) programs written in assembly/C, but the nSpire can only run slower (interpreted) programs written in BASIC.
Just because it's not allowed doesn't mean it can't be done. Just means it takes a little more effort

ARM, completely open, choice of several OSs out of the box, and it weighs 3 lbs
Not sure what you mean by flash based though.
I chose it because I have no idea how much power I consume. I suspect that others acted similarly.
Seconded. I'm guessing that LIDAR would be the most likely technology for this, since that's what they used in the DARPA Challenge. Given that it's not widespread yet I'm guessing the cost is still too high though.
Different from all other power systems, you cannot find examples of how the nuclear power plants have ruined the environment by "cutting corners".
IIRC, Chernobyl was caused by precisely that - cutting corners.
That said, any modern reactor is going to be far safer than the Chernobyl design.
Given a cost of $1.19M USD, it's probably feasible for some billionaire to do it himself - buy the land, build some walls around it then start the project. It would be a rather profitable business venture to top it off.
It depends on your luck. Mine is really simple, I got
That implies that these discussions are important - when it comes down to it, we're just killing time.
I sincerely doubt that something like this will be of any real significance.
IIRC from a previous poll, only ~40% of slashdotters are American. What makes this poll even more ridiculous is that (as another poster pointed out) the choice of vote will vary depending on the time they read the poll - it's not static/fixed.
That only works if there are enough lobbyists who are against ACTA - otherwise the dead ones just get replaced.
Besides, if there's a clear threat they're more likely to band together against it. If they are killed, it can't look like murder - suicide or divine punishment would be better
What if the vehicle manufacturer licensed the AI software with regular payments, and used the payments as a form of insurance?
This is the same website that handles billing. If it's that easy to hack, the ISP has bigger problems.
Screw the pony, I wish I had a girlfriend.
Better solution: block the commonly exploited ports (25, 80, etc.) for users by default, and offer them an option on the website to enable them.
This blocks the flow of malware, but still preserves neutrality.
My ISP (iiNet) does this and it works extremely well, IMO.
