I want to know where I can find these six core apps. In my experience, most apps still only use a single core, so...

You mean from an overt listening device? You could do that just by throwing a towel over it.

My favorite is called Automate by LlamaLab.

The word you're looking for is diamagnetism .

By my math, they have 11 weeks to perfect the technology, paint it in neon colors, and market it to children so it will be ready for Marty McFly's arrival on October 21st. Good luck, Mattel...I mean Lexus.

You know, I was all set to point out that it would affect power consumption (meaning to alter it), not effect power consumption (meaning to bring it about), when it occurred to me that the usage of effect can just squeak by, provided you divide overall power consumption into discrete sections, each with its own cause.

Sometimes it's not easy being a grammar nazi.

He may be a fugitive from something, but it strains credulity to call it "justice".

Though it's true that those willing to actually speak out about it represent a minority of Slashdot's userbase, that doesn't mean that the many who choose to remain silent don't ALSO hate beta. To assume that those who keep their mouth shut all love beta is a BIG mistake.

If the administration really wanted to know what people think of beta they would run a poll about it. You'll notice that they are not doing this. I find this rather telling. To me, it implies that they don't actually care what we think.

Harry: "Oh ho ho! Soylent green!? (laughs)...Didn't even know they made it in green. What do they PAY you?"
John Oldman: "Nothing is too good for my friends."

Which did he mean? "So MUCH for our constitutional freedoms", or "So long TO our constitutional freedoms"?

If machines took all the jobs, and there were none left for humans, this would just mean that all the work was being done by machines. If machines are doing all of the work, then there is nothing being left undone, no task that is not already being completed, for if anyone needed anything else done that the machines were not already doing for them, they would attempt to hire someone to do it, which would create a job opening, which would then contradict the original premise that computers had taken all of the jobs.

So basically it's a kit to make your own drone out of any aerial craft you can get your hands on? I wonder how long before someone puts one in a full-size car...

Does anyone seriously think an LED or CFL could possibly withstand the temperatures inside an oven? They would melt the first time you used it! Only incandescents will work in there, so what do you do when the one in your oven now burns out? Feel like roasting a chicken by flashlight?

Perhaps they'll make an exception for appliance bulbs, but if they do then all we need are lamps with about 3 or 4 sockets so you can get a decent amount of light with a few appliance bulbs. Game, set, and match.

As it stands, when a whistleblower leaks government secrets to news organizations and independent bloggers, the whistleblower gets in trouble, but the news can still be reported. Once those same government secrets are copyrighted, they'll still be able to go after the whistleblower, but I expect they will then start using DMCA takedown notices against anyone reporting about the leaks because of the unlicensed duplication of portions of their data inherent in any competent reporting of it. (I know, fair use is supposed to cover things like this, but how long do you really expect that to last in the current political climate? Look at what's happening lately with game review videos on YouTube for an example.)

Then wasn't his real crime admitting to being involved? After all, until that point, it could have been someone else using his internet, or spoofing his IP, or that his computer had been compromised and made part of a botnet, etc. And it would seem obvious that the effect on the site would have been no different had he done nothing whatsoever.

I'm pretty sure that fans of any genre of music think that their genre is special and that all the other genres are homogenous and generic. This is not something special about heavy metal. To paraphrase Tyler Durden, heavy metal is not a beautiful or unique snowflake.
