Deep deep underground with lots of canned food, diesel and light that can simulate sunlight... Think Zion in the matrix :)

I'm not too sure Australia would be unaffected, there are quite a few US bases / radar stations etc on Aussie soil...the Chinese/Russians may not like it if it came to a head..Antarctica and Greenland maybe?

Thanks guys for clarifying. So am I right to think that they don't have any "identity" that makes them "yahoo" anymore and they just collect rent from a bunch of properties they acquired? In my mind, google is googl

Last time I checked years and years ago, yahoo was kind of a search engine/directory. What does it do now?

There's no such thing as a free lunch, and many people believed they could mine one lunch at no (or very little) cost and expect that lunch to last forever. That's very unfortunate, but who wouldn't see that such a utopia wou

Oh well, then that means I have this alter ego having a life of his own. Imagine this, after 40 years of having a Facebook account, my shadow account gets his numbers and shadow personality "woken up" into an AI system ( for the B

What kind of hacking are we talking about? Black/white hat? (Is there another kind?)

Just as ridiculous ( and remarkable) as Ferrari's dominance was for so many years with ol' Schumi at the wheel. As long as no one is cheating, whoever leads most certainly deserve to be at the top.

An amazing trip down memory lane! I did so many things with the good old 741 many many years ago, my favourite being making a wah wah pedal from scratch, very simple design, and then I had to go for distortions and phaser effects. nice.
