Now 25 years later you can experiment with all kinds of new technologies such as walk the internet with SevenMileBoots, interactive plant growing, tracing communications, Pixelspaces, ...

  1. An announcement for this would be nice... by sean@thingsihate.org · · Score: 4, Insightful

    All the time slashdot has these stories "I'm here at the whatever convention..." and there's never any announcement before-hand that it's going on.

    Surely announcing this kind of stuff is just as news-for-nerd-worthy as what's on the next episode of cowboy bebop or whatever it is

    Well, in a list of people to be proud of, you don't want to add Adolf Hitler.

    (BTW, it's Gödel and Schrödinger, not Godel and Schrodinger - use ö to produce those with an US keyboard)
