Bill Gates Puts Classic Feynman Lectures Online

theodp writes "Okay Tux fans, let's see how badly you want to see Feynman's Messenger Lectures on Physics. Bill Gates has the goods over at Microsoft Research's Project Tuva site. Also, CNET's Ina Fried has an interesting interview with Gates. He goes into why he spent his own money to make a series of classic physics lectures available free on the Web, talks about the possibility of Project Natal bringing gesture recognition to Windows, gives his thoughts on Google's Chrome OS, and discusses plans to patent 'cows that don't fart.' The last is a joke. I think."

    I just want to read the paper

    Then go and find the papers. The site has the lectures as videos. I don't know about you, but I cannot translate any kind of video format (outside of animated ASCII) in my head. Same for audio formats.

    You also save yourself from being a complete troll by offering me this trivial gem of "hope." How this was moderated insightful is beyond me.

    It shouldn't be. Your MO is very obvious... you're what's known as a "google expert". You RTFS/A a little early since you're a subscriber, then google for some related scraps, then put together a post.

    Lots of people have done this. We call them karma whores.

    Sure, we all talk out of our ass sometimes ($DEITY knows I'm occasionally as guilty of it as anyone else). But you seem to make a habit of it... and so he called you out on it, and obviously one or more moderators agreed with him.

    I don't need a video, dumbass, I can read. Post the goddamned transcript and save everybody a lot of wasted bandwidth.

    Jesus, my day is bad enough without a bunch of AC stalkers flaming me. Now go tell your mom I have twenty bucks for her, I'm horney.

    You should try taking that stick out of your ass, though that might leave a hole that could compromise your system.
