Sure, there was a reason to do a project which: "Because of its high cost and because of his unsatisfactory, short operation he is widely regarded as the greatest technical debacle in post-war Germany." (from the link). Not saying

I always find it amusing when links provided by "nay sayers" present contrary evidence or no evidence at all. From the link: The nuclear power plant THTR-300 ( thorium high-temperature reactor) was a helium-cooled high-temperature

Suggestion to eat cheap carbos is insane. Sure its cheap, but it will also raise your blood sugar, make you feel without energy and make you obese. Considering that I've been practicing diets without any carbs for a while now, I can sa

It doesn't run Linux - the devices themsleves run as a thin-clients, that connect to a server. The server converts webpages into data and streams them to the device. The server is running vanilla Ubuntu with Visionect Packages.

That's exactly how we went about it. We could do a full Instagram integration, but we never used IFTTT and it saved us some coding + kept the example codebase much simpler. IFTTT does have downsides tho, very slow to push from Instagra

I'd so love to work on nuclear energy, making Thorium approchable for the masses. Checklist: - find a superstar physics team - get 0.5B in funding. Seriously, Thorium rocks. Look it up.

I so want to get one of these! Anybody knows if it is "super hard", "insanely hard" or "do not apply without an olympic medal" to sail one of these?

Test 1. Phone charged at 8AM. KitKat + Skype + other apps (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Evernote, 4SQ) + normal usage = Phone dead at 10PM same day. Test 2. Phone charged at 8AM. KitKat + other apps (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Evernote,

Regardless of what it looks like when Google puts down a IM competitor, but as a KitKat user I can confirm this. Nexus 5 + Skype (with 0 actual skyping done) = 16hrs autonomy. I almost RMAed the phone. Nexus 5 sans Skype = after 24hrs I sti

My point is that US stats mean nothing (compared to world stats) and that linked report/article is skewing perspective on who the real players are in mobile world.

Similar to what the US is doing in terms of mobile market, thinking that they are somehow representative or "advanced". We get millions of headlines for Apple launching video chat in the US market while they had that in EU 5 and i

It's really hard to understand why somebody would over report Apple share. I guess it's some kind of Apple fanship. Anyways, these are the real numbers (World wide): Rank . Brand . . . . 2013 units . . Share . . 2012 units . .

This is much worse than GSM+GPS as: 1. Literally works for years compared to days. 2. Much smaller. 3. Works everywhere where people carry their phones (underground substructures impenetrable by GPS and GSM).

Not sure about that. Perhaps not sold at a loss in terms of bill of materials right now (since they have been in production for some time they probably brought the price down), but that doesn't account for the labor costs (developers,

This is not like carrying a passport, phone or computer at all. I can be tracked without my knowledge - somebody just needs to plant a minature tracker in my laptop bag. Edit: The issue is that everybody tracks everybody, not like with Tile

Want to track a human? Just plant a tag in their purse/on their car. So much abuse. I hope there is some legislation out there that prevents such devices.

I am quite certain that they are not allowed to retroactively change the ToS and access the data legaly. That doesn't mean that they won't. Perhaps they will just do it behind the curtains, offering better Facebook Friend links.

What I find interesting is that BTC market does not care about Flexcoin shutting down - prices continue to soar to USD 700 after the MtGox induced drop to ~ USD 500. For me this actually shows promise of real market stabillity in the long r

I agree with Styn, a screenshot of your page in action, a demo and/or a video would be nice. I don't like to register for sites that aren't clear on how they work.
