There was a real potential in the Flip, and the company had so many possibilities. Someone else mentioned the commoditization of the video market (just like disposable film cameras in the 90's). They're missing the boat on consumer 3D video, and there's still a huge market for underwater, sports/rugged filming, and…

It's hard to let something get in your way when it agrees with you so well. The facts and data clearly show that the levels of CO2, methane, and a whole host of other greenhouse-effect gasses rose exponentially during the time of the industrial revolution, and continue rising today. It is fairly easy to gauge these…

Why are you bringing me into this?

Ideas like these are destroying our country. A lack of interest in your fellow man's well-being can cause a dangerous downfall. Did you forget that as a nation and as a society, we depend on each other? There are many examples of this philosophy's failure throughout history - the fall of Rome was caused by such…

I've said it before: Republicans have no souls; Democrats have no balls.

"And while Facebook treats corporations like people, it reduces all human connections to equal-opportunity selling opportunities."

They have to get committee approval just to turn the damned wheels on one of these rovers, and you have to wait half a day or more to confirm most actions (AI notwithstanding). With the NASA/JPL philosophy (mind you, one that has kept a couple of 90-day robots running for years) it would take a month of work, 1200…

It sees whatever it happens to be looking at...?

The problem is that this has been a pain in the ass of developers for years. The inevitable glitches tend to be far less tolerated, or solved by the superphone-toting general public than the computer-nerds of the gaming world.

What happened to "Earth Day", or is that just 24x too long for most people to give a shit about their planet?

pour it out onto the floor.

The United States needs to take some serious lessons from the Japanese response to this series of disasters. Living in LA, the idea of a major quake scares me... Not so much because of the fear of actual earthquake circumstances, but rather due to the inevitable American clusterfuck that will ensue for at least two…

What's the hour-wastage figure for big cities/quagmires such as LA? 36 hours seems more like a month's worth of traffic than a year's if you ever have to use the 405 on the west side for anything.

What's with that camera box they have... Nikon lenses? Six fans? From the angles it looked like there might be a few auxiliary low quality lenses, or maybe it was just crops from a wide angle... either way, I want to know more.

This is true, to the extent that physics allows. They're highly engineered, but until Harry Potter gets a job at Lockheed, they're not magic.

Oh I'm sorry, you must have confused our plutocratically influenced representative republic for a democracy.

From a strictly aesthetic standpoint, e-mail or E-mail looks better. Email looks like the name of a chef-star on the Food Network.

I'm glad to know this. I always go to Yahoo answers for a laugh, but I've always found it pretty useless for actual answers.

Research has indicated that a lot of plastics release harmful chemicals. [www.brighthub.com]

Other than in the passages where they're obviously trying to kiss his ass, where does it say anywhere that he's supposed to be merciful and all-loving?
