Official: Cloud computing invented by two technophobic old geezers

FAIL

Sigh... so no security or backup or guarantee that their data will always be available? No tech support, and a file structure that probably only makes sense to themselves? With no real search function?

The only thing they have invented is a massive risk to their business.

I'm sure lots of people had data up on megaupload saying "why would we pay for this when we can get it for free?", I wonder what their doing now? Probably looking for a new job

The only fair way to test it would be to take the exact same amount of money that was spent fueling the electric car and spend it on petrol, and then trying to repeat the journey in a petrol car.

We already know it doesn't work- because in one of the parallel universes the LHC wouldn't have had that glitch that we had last September...

So if it had worked that dimension would have already invaded ours ages ago.

Rubbish

I wonder if "spiked shoes, a special track, a strict training regime, and money and glory to spur him on" are on par to "running away for things trying to eat you and running after things you are trying to eat"

I'm sure Bolt could squeeze out a few more km/h if second place had sharp teeth and an insatiable appitite for human flesh...

I would also argue that Schwarzenegger has a little more than 10% more muscle than the average man...

But hey, never let facts get in way of psedoscience!

This makes no sense...

The iPhone is almost entirely controlled by the touch screen, the very very least amount of effort is still enough to register on it.

How could this possibly cause more strain than actually depressing buttons- which would require more force???
