I wouldn't say disconnecting a cable is exactly "high-tech".

Wow.
Some people...
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

What would Felix Leiter say?
Did they at least get a Quantum of Solace from their ill-gotten gains?
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

In front of a crowd of nearly 2,000, Torvalds spoke with VMware Head of Open Source Dirk Hohndel in one of their famous “fireside chats” about what motivates and surprises him and how aspiring open source developers can get started. "The Linux philosophy is 'laugh in the face of danger'. Oops. Wrong one. 'Do it yourself'. That's it."

The state of global cybersecurity is a mixed bag at the moment, according to a new report by Trustwave. Maybe if we buy them a six pack, they'll go away?

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

The rise and fall of FireWire—IEEE 1394, an interface standard boasting high-speed communications and isochronous real-time data transfer—is one of the most tragic tales in the history of computer technology. Oh, that's what the connector I never used is for

Theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking has set a deadline for humanity to save itself. Within the next 100 years, he warns, we need to colonize Mars and other planets. If we don’t, we may not survive climate change, disease, and other versions of doom we’re bound to inflict on ourselves this century. I'm pretty sure I won't survive the next 100 years one way or the other

You can't save yourself. No matter where you run or jet off too.
Just sayin'

Olympus Mons, the largest landfill in the solar system, sounds awesome!

Stephen, you can leave, I'll stay here.
Over ten years ago Al Gore said we only have ten years to save the planet.
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

It is definitely time for SOME humans to get off planet Earth, but not for the reasons he is implying. That's why we need to start building ships. Three gigantic "Arks" in space. You lot will go first.

Resonant and wave-guiding systems are present in the vast majority of optical and electronic systems. Their role is to temporarily store energy in the form of electromagnetic waves and then release them. For more than 100 hundred years, these systems were held back by a limitation that was considered to be fundamental: the length of time a wave could be stored was inversely proportional to its bandwidth. Maybe someone can shine a light on this one?

A solution to runaway electrons gets us one step closer to nuclear fusion. Maybe's not just a spring insect?

Think compilers cannot compromise the security of your application? Think twice! Oh, just use an interpreted language and avoid the compiler problems

By total coincidence we have developed a product which solves the problem we have just explained. (Snark aside, what they did IS pretty cool.)
