Any mention of other wristband options? I'd love to have a metal one.

At a Google conference? C'mon, you're Tizen us.

Lousy try ass hole, for every lie you try to push there's a ton of data from independent sources (including satellite images) showing other wise. Go fuck your self!

Mmm if he can build s scooter with a case then we are not far from the iron man suitcase armor.

If you can justify printing cheap, plastic crap at home for <$500, I'm sure you can justify it for $1,200.

So Android features ... got it!

I mean, yeah, this sort of competition is good for the consumer, but isn't a bit telling that the big guys best hope is to essentially copy someone else instead of coming up with something new? Again, it's not a horrible development, but perhaps telling of the stagnant levels of innovation among the leading companies.

They're talking ~250-pound sats, and SpaceX currently states their costs at around $3k/pound launched. Loading multiple sats onto a single rocket is the most likely deployment scenario. $135 million in launch costs seems doable, certainly less than $1b — leaving plenty of room for R&D and manufacturing.

Now I understand why their vacuums are so expensive. Someone needs to fund their ridiculous number of secret pet projects that never make it out of the lab.

This is just a gimmick. There is actually no way of super-cooling anything unless you change the ambient pressure (thus the product internal pressure) without forming ice crystals.

But you can't have high and low pressure areas without air throwing. The two are 100% linked - the reason a wing produces lift is that it is accelerating the air it is going through towards the ground, that whole F=ma thing. Air is accelerated when there is a static pressure gradient, so in order to accelerate air…

Same, I actually bought one because I figured they would have software for 3d modeling from the get go, but it's just been sitting in its box while my space pilot does all the dirty work.

OK, let's try and focus this conversation. You get science money for science goals. Getting a man on the moon was cool, but was it science? Not really. It would be cheaper and SAFER to put a robot on the moon. Getting it done fast and with a person was a POLITICAL goal, not a scientific one. You wrote a great and long…

This comment says a lot more about you than about Google.

you clamp your buttocks on it and hold tight...

Details.... why are you worried about all the small things.

It appears this guy is butt hurt.

Ah, we're talking about behemoth companies that will one day crash and burn. If you'd like to join in on the conversation, please try switching your imagination in the 'on' position.

Because if any career has "future earnings potential" written all over it, it's a parking meter mechanic in Buffalo, NY.

You could say the same thing about the internet 10+ years ago. You could say the same thing about Torrenting, today. Everything that can be used can also be misused. Criminals drive themselves deeper underground in order to stay one step ahead of Law enforcement. It's a cat and mouse game of both sides continuously…
