But, but, but I thought everybody knew that more "frag harder disco lights" on a computer translates into it being a faster, more powerful computer. :D

Am I the only one that thought "giant Pez dispenser" when looking at that robot? :)

They'll probably just use their hands to take care of the dirty business then (hopefully) wash them in the sink afterwards.

To all the people that proclaim "I have nothing to hide", well then how about posting in the open your social security numbers, bank account information and account numbers, credit card information, social media usernames and passwords, etc. If you truly have nothing to hide then there should...

So how do they plan to actually ENFORCE this? Sure, proposing or even passing some new law may make people feel good about themselves, but some of us live in reality. In reality, there is such a thing as Voice over Internet Protocol, or VoIP, where a person can get a new phone number in a...

To make a comment that is actually related to the original post: I was expecting a bunch of Honda Asimo type robots roaming around actually waiting on tables, not glorified automated amazon warehouse robot drones. These reminded me of the scrubbing bubbles from the bathroom cleaner...

Wait, isn't this the same website that took a couple of years and over 2 billion bucks to try and get working and they still have problems? A college student could have designed the whole thing for a few thousand bucks and it would have been more secure, IMO.

Looks like this new iteration of the flip phone might help cut down on butt dialing, perhaps.

Gee, just what the world needs, more "frag harder disco lights" on computer stuff. Not.

Early on in DDG's history, they were promoting the saying "don't google it, just duck it." Now go out there and Duck It, you silly person. lol

I use this one with a slab door on top for the desk. I've been using it for a couple of years now and it is holding up well.

Data mining plants. Who woulda thunk it? So they're going to collect telemetry data and spy on everything the plant does to innocently direct targeted advertising to the plants, huh?

So this means they are gonna data mine the strength of the user's pee stream and whether or not they have dangerous, violent, exploding bowel movements and then match it up with facial recognition? Why bother with a public bathrooms. Cities like San Fran-sicko allows people to do that on the...

From reading the title of the article, my first thought was define the meaning of the word "about". About 3 years could mean one thing to many people and something else entirely to someone else. I believe nothing without proof and even then I'm skeptical. ;)

I remember when cable TV first came out and it was advertised as having zero commercials. We all know how that turned out. It doesn't surprise me one bit about netflix rolling out commercials. So glad I never signed up. I rarely watch anything on TV anymore.

With all the data mining, why not give away the clothes for FREE. I'm sure they'll make enough profit from selling the data to the highest bidder to make up the difference.

It can tell if people are happy (using the original meaning of the word)?

But how will these switches handle Cheetos dust and other crap that gets down in keyboards?

That's what came to mind when I saw this thread. :LOL:

An underground tunnel in earthquake prone country, huh. I'm sure nothing could possibly go wrong.

I know right? At first I was wondering if this article was a gag or not. Since when does a US Congress person work? lol

A lack of saddlebag supports and the limited range of about 53 miles on a charge. No thank you, my daily commute requires a bit more range. Not everyone has the ability to charge their car/bike/scooter/vehicle at work. I'll stick to my good ole fashioned gas burning motorcycle with it's...

Here at Microsoft, we know what's best for you. </end sarcasm> Now shut up and accept it. I say pfffftttt. MS sure is getting a bit big for their britches aren't they.

How would we ever be able to communicate effectively in the zombie apocalypse where there is no electricity or internet for typing. Being able to write, whether it's cursive or block printing, will come in handy for communication in that case. Knowing the basics for how to do things is...

It seems to make more sense, to me anyway, to cook the burgers on a moving conveyor system as was mentioned previously. The whole robot arm thing seems like more of a publicity stunt and is just some way to keep humans involved in the process. I think if a fast food joint is going to automate...

"... other contaminants" um, ewwww. Maybe learn to aim away from the computer during certain, uh, activities.

Do the settings actually DO anything or are they there to make people feel good about themselves thinking they shut off the spying?

Their methods to get me hooked on apps is all for naught. I do not own a so-called smart phone nor am I on windows 10. I prefer to have a full fledged program I can install on my computer rather than some limited, cut-down mobile application or app. ;)

Is this a 1U server? Got pics?

OT: Woot free paper. No need for the three sea shells now.

I have used the Firestick, wound up giving it to a family member. I felt it was a little sluggish. Then I got a Roku, but I didn't like being tied into a closed ecosystem. I had enough of that noise back when I had a WDTV live streaming box. Boy were the options really limited on that device and...

For strictly media watching, why not something like an Odroid-c2, a Raspberry Pi 3, or an Amazon fire stick. They are all low power and do the job pretty well. I've also used laptops and old computers too. All depends on what you want to achieve. Will it be strictly for media consumption or will...

The problem with putting batteries in big trucks is the weight. An eighteen-wheeler driving on the US interstate highway system is still limited to 80,000 max. This means the weight of the truck, trailer, the cargo, the driver, the amount of fuel in the tanks, etc. Then there is the limitation...

Yeah, I thought a nudie bar would have been better than some box with no a/c or other form of air circulation.

I thought cockroaches would be the last surviving species on the planet.

Well, if a business entity refuses to accept cash as a form of payment, then I guess they don't really want my business. There will always be some other business that will be more than happy to accept my cash. If you like paying with plastic, then go ahead and pay with plastic. Some of us...

I remember Radio Shack's slogan at one time was "If you've got questions, we've got answers" but in reality it was more like "If you've got questions, well, so do we". :LOL:

If nothing else, just spray some Plasti-Dip on there. A coat or two of black followed by a coat or two of glossifer (optional) for a shinier look. I would take it out of the case though. ;)

I still use Streamripper and it still works. I put the songs from it on a USB drive that I can play in my truck.

I see HP is learning from Big Brother Microsoft in putting keyloggers in place.
