This will be great for people driving and reading a book on their phone with one hand....

You hear about this all the time these days. Is this issue prevalent in all schools now from public to private and low to high socioeconomic status?

How does that work when you want to buy them an expensive item like a bicycle, segway, computer etc. that would take them too long to save up for?

We don't buy them stuff like that just because they ask for it. Bikes, Kindle, DS, iPod, etc are birthday and Christmas presents. We don't charge them for presents. For the most part, if there is something we think they need, you provide it. It is a loose system. It has been pretty effective in shutting down the classic "child begging endlessly to get something at the store" problem. There is usually one of two responses: "Save up for it" or "Did you bring your money?"

Did Andy step down or finally have an opportunity to peruse his dream?

> For Rubin, manufacturing is a return to the past. According to a 2007 profile, Rubin began as a robot engineer at lens manufacturer Carl Zeiss and had a brief stint at Apple as a manufacturing engineer before devoting his working hours to developing computers instead. However, robotics remained a hobby, with Rubin both building his own and amassing a collection of robots from Japan.

Could very well be! And why not follow your dreams when you're rich? Fact still remains that Android is now under ChromeOS chief Sundar Pichai.

The PS2 continued to sell very well after the PS3 arrived as well.

We recently bought one of those inexpensive spring mattresses from Ikea. Let me just say that the thing was about as comfortable as a sack of slinkies. Would not buy again. And you can't try them out in-store either as they don't have all of their mattresses on display.

I wasn't talking about a spring mattress, but a foam mattress just like these. Ikea's start at $79.

So no details on how to detect if this virus is on your computer?

Apparently not. I think just wait until Google, Facebook, or Twitter reset your password.

That is exactly my fear

Don't they do burn-in tests on consoles so they know it works before it ships?

I hope it includes a NSFW filter in the parts library. There are things little Johnny should not be able to print.

They can filter the parts library, but if Little Johnny heard of something at school and made his own design, I don't see how the system can prevent that short of a parental lockout / corporate approval system where every printed part must be approved before printing. Even then, the most determined hacker-kids will figure out how to subvert that system.

It looks like it only has a small set of built-in models, then the rest are file imports from somewhere on your machine. It doesn't seem to connect to an online store of models at this point.

I hope you mean 'things like guns' but I fear you mean 'things like dicks'. Meanwhile most of the workforce brings his dick to work while the guns stay home as they are 'not safe for work', as it should be. This is clearly an area were reality comes out ahead...

I never thought of 3d printing in that way. Inevitably someone will work out how to have sex with something.

3D printed sex toys already exist.

I suppose an advantage of them is there's no embarassment in purchasing them, you can tailor them to your body, you can choose colours, etc.

Facebook just took the known emails/passwords from Adobe and ran them through their own password encryption routine and checked for a match. For matches they reset the passwords on the FB accounts.

But the passwords aren't exactly known.

The only way to know them is to have people manually examine the password hints and guess (without confirmation of whether the guess was right or not). It's funny trying to picture Facebook employees looking through 150 million password hints trying to guess passwords.
