Yes, but are these the Droids we're looking for?

An effort to license IBM processor designs bears fruit as one of the most powerful computing companies on the Net shows its own server using Big Blue's Power8 chip. That could mean more competitive pressure on Intel. More power to em', what a power play! (Insert other related power puns here).

Two MIT students have raised half a million dollars for a project to distribute $100 in bitcoin to every undergraduate student at MIT this fall. "Tuition payments now being accepted in Bitcoin."

Seems like a massive waste of (real) money to me

What if there was a way for law enforcement to track suspects fleeing crime scenes in cars without the danger of a high speed pursuit that could put suspects, officers, and civilians at risk? One company claims to have just the solution. Is it legal? One GPS bullet to rule them all, one GPS bullet to find them...

...one GPS bullet to bring them all and in the darkness track 'em to their momma's house.

It'll be "legal" until the bullet hits the wrong car.
If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.-John Q. Adams You must accept one of two basic premises: Either we are alone in the universe, or we are not alone in the universe. And either way, the implications are staggering.-Wernher von Braun Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.-Albert Einstein

Social networks like Facebook provide a great platform to connect and share with friends, but because of their public by default nature, it can sometimes be difficult to understand who can see what you’re sharing. Just assume that everyone sees EVERYTHING.

The United States unequivocally won the space race and, with it, uncontested dominance in low Earth orbit for roughly five decades. But the country's space dominance is not only beginning to show cracks, the whole system could literally crash due to the increasing threat of so-called “dangerous space incidents”—the specter of space weapons deployed by an upstart like China, North Korea, or Iran. Space: the final frontier battlefield

OpenSSH is an incredible tool. Though primarily relied upon as a secure alternative to plaintext remote tools like telnet or rsh, OpenSSH (hereafter referred to as plain old ssh) has become a swiss army knife of functionality for far more than just remote logins. Free. Your. Mind.

French Secretary of State for the digital economy Axelle Lemaire announced in an interview with Le JDD that the French government will work on a developer visa for highly skilled employees. Developer visas? No work emails after 6pm? Baguettes? See you in France!

Vive la France !

“The internet is a collection of computer networks that is connected around the world…A code of ‘netiquette’ exists among users and within user groups, but otherwise, you pay your money, find your niche and take your chances.” 1994 was 20 years ago!? Seems like just yesterday...

Appears even back then, management expected you to attend these seminars during your lunch break rather than eat into their work time. Was about to say 'nothing changes', but it really should be 'nothing gets better'.

None of these women report directly to boss Jeff Bezos, but select all-male group of 12 have direct line, according to leak. I smell a PR kerfuffle brewing.

Deft use of "kerfuffle" here, a criminally underused gem of english vocabulary.

You're pretty deft yourself

Underused because of shenanigans.

Do you think the S Team from the article is going to have a palaver about the kerfulle?

At least *one* palaver. Maybe even two though!
