    Google Self-Driving Car: A First Drive

    I think that is the perfect initial use for automated cars. I would be very surprised if companies like Zip car are not already paying close attention to this. Instead of having to pay for spots to keep their cars parked all around the city, they could keep them all at a couple of central...

    Google Self-Driving Car: A First Drive

    So I guess you didn't read the whole article. "Google plans to build about 100 prototypes, and this summer, it will test early versions of these cars that have manual controls" "Earlier this month, the California Department of Motor Vehicles approved new rules for autonomous vehicle...

    Google Self-Driving Car: A First Drive

    A lot of these points are valid, however in my opinion no reason to prevent them from existing as the safety benefits alone far outweigh the potential of abuse. The cars do not interface with anything remotely, which negates the ability to hack them remotely. I'm sure you could find ways to...

    Google Self-Driving Car: A First Drive

    The cars that google is currently testing on public roads have giant emergency stop buttons that disable the automatic control, and return control to the driver. The cars are completely normal on the inside with all of your normal controls, with the only change being the large red panic button.

    Google Self-Driving Car: A First Drive

    I agree with you completely on all points. I think the increase in overall safety is the biggest benefit. Accidents would be reduced immensely when you remove the human element. When we get to the point of fully autonomous roads, traffic congestion will definitely be reduced. People have a...

    Google Self-Driving Car: A First Drive

    I don't see manual cars being fully replaced in most of our lifetimes. Even if 20 years from now they pass a law banning all manual cars from public roads, you would still have the opportunity to go drive on private roads/courses. In fact, I'm sure an entire industry would pop up to cater to...

    Coolest Fake Hoverboard Video of the day

    While I know several people will end up thinking the video is real, and the huvr board is real, you can easily tell that the various people are being held up and supported by a harness. Just look at their shoulders/back and you can clearly tell that a harness is there beneath their clothes, and...

    Barnes & Noble Fired Its Nook Engineering Staff

    I love my nook glowlight. I would have bought a kindle, but at the time, kindle didn't have a lighted display available and the nook made more sense since I do most of my reading at night and prefer not having a light on. In my experience, it wasn't the hardware that lacked with the nook, but...

    ESA Fights Efforts To Study Link to Violence

    Violent crime in the US has been on a downward trend since '93, and is currently at it's lowest. At the same time, video game use has been on a steady increase since '93 and is currently at it's highest. Coincidence? For the record, I do feel that it is mostly a coincidence and there are...

    Sony Has Sold 2.1M PS4s

    Here's the thing, who cares which console is better or sells more (besides the companies and shareholders)? The Xbox 360 sold better then the PS3, but how did that affect the individual users of the PS3 or 360? I don't recall hearing any developer abandoning the PS3 for the 360 or vice versa...

    Seasonic Topre Type Heaven Keyboard and S12G PSU Lucky Draw

    I want more seasonic in my rig, because currently i have none. I've used a seasonic psu in the past and had no problems with it, and likely would still be using it if I hadn't sold the entire computer it was in.

    single cable vs multi-cables

    I'm in the middle of running cat-6 and coax throughout my two story house. The house was built in 89 and no coax was run, which I'm trying to fix now. I do have coax to about half the rooms in the house but it was all run after the fact, and most of it runs outside of the house. I actually...
