Capcom announces unsellable game.
Capcom announces unsellable game.
Switzerland and Spain are doing great with OSS in government. What makes linux a bad match for the German Foreign Office? Or what are they doing wrong?
This is impressive bit of tech. Robotic vision has historically been a tough field.
Anyone knowledgeable enough on the subject to speculate on the implications or interesting uses of this technology?
The f-117 is a fighter in name only; it was designed for a ground-attack role.

You only need a few gigabytes of space to install a local copy of wikipedia's text.
Not that learning does not go on, just that most people use it to get a degree to get a job. This current trend is historically unusual, it used to be that most people who went to college would go to be cultured and educated. That was when learning resources were more difficult to acquire than they are now. Now there is a wealth of information on every subject that makes independent study as feasible as college, as projects like khan university and this show.
It would be great, except that for quite a while now college has not been the best way to learn, it is about getting a proof of effort. It will take a long time for a wiki-style university to be widely accredited.

Companies get their panties in a bunch. We laugh at them. Film at 11.
The film has multiple (8-10) tracks per roll. This would account for the 20 hours of audio recovered.
It's sad to see it go. The show that helped so many of the musicians that geeks love make it big.
How will we get our entertainment in the future? I think the net will let shows like Dr. Demento thrive.
This shows that the giving freedom to your customers can work. It is a momentous slap in the face to the big boys like EA and ilk.
It is more like you were hired to analyze data; and you wrote the program to help you do your job.It is your program to do with as you please. The only thing the company wanted was for its data to be analyzed.
