New Sensor Has Real Per-Pixel RGB Sensitivity
jonr writes: "Well, the holy grail of digital photography is finally found. A company named Foveon have developed a sensor that captures RGB colours on each pixel. So what you say? Well, for the past 30 years (or since the CCD was invented) we have been using CCD with with red, green & blue sensors (or cyan/magneta/yellow) and then used software to figure out the real colour. But Foveon is the first company to deliver RGB-in-each-pixel sensor.
For those of you who are not into digital imaging, this makes a lot of difference, it's would be just as revelutionary if somebody would make a flatscreen with a real colour pixels, instead of the RGB dots. dpreview.com has the scoop.
(No, it won't mean the death of film, but I suspect we'll see dramatic improvement in quality)."

May I have an H1-B so I can work in a sweatshop?
I just heard some sad news on talk radio - Horror/Sci Fi writer Stephen King was found dead in his Maine home this morning. There weren't any more details. I'm sure everyone in the Slashdot community will miss him - even if you didn't enjoy his work, there's no denying his contributions to popular culture. Truly an American icon.
a beowulf cluster of smelly h1-b indians?
And another thing about those artificial wombs .. do you have to talk to them afterwards?
MEEPT!!
So Gates is giving some money to charity. One would hope so. But - think about how he got the money... By "cutting off the air supply" of other companies (illegally). If he hadn't then other people would be rich and they'd be giving money to charity.
Many Slashdot readers, myself included, are "unpopular" with the ladies. In fact, most women find the average geek to be quite vile. So the question is how do geeks get laid?
... seems like good odds to me !!
Here are some of my suggestions:
1. Prostitutes - World's oldest profession for a reason.
2. Go Gay - You might like it, plus you'll gain a sense of style in the process.
3. Date Older/Elderly Women - Statistically 63% of women over the age of 65 are single compared to 21% for men
4. Suicide - While the act of suicide in itself will not get you laid, corpses are often fondled and sexually violated by morgue workers.

oh great, thanks for the tip
no google 10 years ago!
side note :
I don't support the exploitation of animals. Obviously the extreme is impossible. I used to be pretty radical about it, I've softened in my later years. I'll go watch a film but I won't make one. The distinctions get blurred and irrational. It's a somewhat irrational stance anyway. I obviously don't avoid the use of electrical transformers. I just do what feels right and these days don't get into people's faces aboutit.
but no meat, eggs, dairy, fish, wool, leather, gelatine, milk, honey and stuff like that.

I started in the wake of the big African starvations because meat production wastes food & water that people could use. When British pop stars & tv programs were rasiing money for Ethiopia Britain was importing Ethiopian food and that turned my head a bit. The EEC destroys food to stabilise the economy and people go hungry. I dodn't feel it's right so I decided to do something and the first thing you need to change is yourself.
Ten years later here I am still vegan.
I can take the insults and what have you because there's only one way of life and that's your own!
