we all knew corporations were controlling the state. this is just the manifestation of that reality

It's all a marketing ploy just to stir up debate and cause free publicity. Otherwise we would've already forgot about Chrome OS for now

I just made a million dollars by selling the virtual caps lock app.

we can fit windows 7 ten times on a microSD card, so I don't think that the fact that it's a minimal OS makes any difference whatsoever. The only advantage I see is portability, but with everybody using windows or Mac and with cloud storage, I don't see any benefit there either. I am 100% for innovation and new…

@darklybishop: You guys realize that that voice was synthesized right? nobody sang it. It's just vocaloid software. You give it lyrics and sheet music and it sings. PERFECT accomppaniment!!! I thoroughly enjoyed that video. But somehow I think I shouldn't have??

@nandreetta: I dunno, but I read on

how come we're in the center? I know it has something to do with light.

@Monkey With A Gun: but how are we in the exact center of it?

@Zinger314: DIY woman. that's the surprising part. usually it would be a GUY developing his own naked scanner. and here is a girl, and in her scanner you still rub it across the subject's body!

I kept feeling that it must be some nerdy guy who got his gf to narrate. dang, I don't know any girls like this. I'm working on a robotics curriculum and I put a girl on the front cover, because there's still such a need to encourage girls to do science. Even in India it seems they do better at involving girls,…

@The-Upsetter: you should see the houses japanese live in.

Thanks for writing this. I was pretty sure it was all hype but I didn't know details. And wikileaks, since it's not american, should not be in any trouble. The leaker, yes. If wikileaks had been an american business, or headed by american, maybe, because you have responsibilities to protect your country, but on…

it kinda missed a "final result" shot at the end. I felt cheated.

@philibuster: thank you for explaining that. somebody correct the article. Oh and please help me understand what kind of usage scenarios are possible with this level of power. ipod nano? kindle? eye-display? what?

@Aaron Crabtree: That article just says they completely copied DNA exactly, and it worked in a cell. No discovery there, just a technical challenge, of course if you put the same thing in there as you took out it's going to do the same thing. That doesn't prove it can happen by itself. The DNA they copied is an…

everybody laughed their heads off when Noah built the first ark. . .

@Mo MoDo: mostly in origin. It takes a creative intelligent force to make a life form that can replicate and adapt and change.

@LehemSteel: as in donkeys and horses and zebras coming from the same kind. evolutionists and creationists agree on that.
