more like good old Sony. They don't even care about money. It's like making stupid decision is their hobby. Hurting their customers and creating crappy products is like a game to them
They actually dressed up one of their 40 year old asshole lawyers as a college student and had him break into dorms in the middle of the night and check for illegal p2p downloads on students' computers! *gasp* Uh oh, the secret's out now hehehe
yeeeeah or the first person with one genetic disease becomes a hundred thousand. Seriously, they should pass a law that makes people with rare genetic diseases get sterilized.
I may not be an electrician but I do know that water and electricity don't mix and you can't effectively/safely beam the power in wirelessly so you gotta run a biiiiig cord with a lotttt of amps running through it through the ocean. Btw saltwater conducts better than normal water lol. I don't even want to know what would happen if a line like that fully shorted out. I'm thinking the electrolysis would cause enough hydrogen to be split off that the heat could ignite it and cause a small explosion. How do I know? I've seen small scale electrical shorts blow test tubes up during electrolysis experiments. It wasn't pretty...pretty cool but not pretty.
I was gonna say that! oh well lol. But also don't forget how much energy it takes to find, ship, and refine uranium. I think Hydrogen (tritium) is way easier to get and there's way more of it. Too bad we're apparently not so good at fusion. All I can say though is I hope we can easily convert fission nuke plants to fusion when we perfect it cuz fission isn't going to last much longer.
oh yeah, try factoring in the fact that college students couldn't buy all the music they downloaded without winning the lottery. They mathematically do not have enough money let alone would they actually want to spend that amount on music. So it's even more horribly exaggerated than they've exaggerated it
there's a little problem with that that I never understood. So a virus starts modifying your cells and it doesn't kill you but it changes YOU. Now how does that get to the offspring? Since reproductive cells are formed completely differently, the chances that the virus could infect them in time and the exact same way as other cells is kinda ridiculous. Especially compared to how likely it is that the organisms with their *sarcastic* vaaaaast knowledge of disease spread prevention among individuals in a community just simply passed the virus to everyone using the normal methods and it traveled down generations so it looked like people got the extra genetic material purely by genetic mutation and inheritence
answer: less beach erosion from less waves. That's where all the energy goes. But anyway, yes there is free energy. It's caleld gravity. Why can't we use gravity to power stuff on Earth? Cuz you have to lift whatever it is back up with equal or greater energy. But the moon comes and goes so it's like the moon's gravity turns on and off. Which brings me to the point I originally wanted to make which is they'd be better of using the tide powered turbines that there was a slashdot story about a while ago. They worked pretty well though they were kinda time dependent lol. It's a LOT of water that moves though and the moon's gravity will never run out.
well then guess what, you're wrong! Even in VB if you want to do something else with let's say the date/time class that it can't do, you have to re-write the entire class yourself. It IS stupid, it IS wrong, and IS bad programming language design. And with ruby on rails, you're so stuck into their mould of what you should be doing, it's ridiculous. I've heard horror stories about certain objects that are so super complicated but only do stuff one way so you have to work around them.
they could learn a thing about programming! From what I've heard, if you use the objects in the "rails" that they premade, you're stuck doing it their with with their methods and properties and if you want to do it another way, you're out of luck. Making the huge mistake that everyone would only ever want to do something your way is how you kill a programming language.
No matter how clean it gets, there's still instances like the Jeff Garlen article saying he was killed by a mountain goat or whatever for months and months and nobody fixed it. Anyone can still put anything on it which means all of it can't be 100% correct and that's that.
Is it really worth pouring more money into this idiotville if every bit of scientific progress they make is practically public knowledge soon after? Just shut the stupid place down!
they should realize they're screwed either way though. If you go up to 3GB total with an SD card and put an XP install on JUST the card, it would be so slow they'd have a bad impression of Windows. If they join the two disks so it acts as one, when the card fails after like 2 months of heavy use, half their windows install disappears and they are royally screwed and get a bad impression of Windows. If they increase the hard drive space and install XP, it will run so slow anyway and will be so buggy and overly complicated they'll still have a bad impression of Windows lol. I grew up with shitty OS 7 and 8 macs in school and they froze up nonstop and did just about nothing we wanted them to and now I hate all things Apple. Coincidence? Nah ah!
I'm 5'11" and 160 pounds and fairly athletic despite being a geeky 20 year old programmer/comptuter repairer as a career because you forgot about the one great geek equalizer...or geekqualizer...DANCE DANCE RRRRRRRRRRRREVOLUTION! w00t w00t! I'm practically unbeatable. Although for the record, without DDR I'd be not as athletic but still skinny because of my awesome genes:-D lucky me hehehe. And I'm pretty good at martial arts btw.
speaking of older games like that, I seriously do have right now all Sonic the Hedgehog 3 and Sonic and Knuckles songs re-recorded from an emulator in my car:-D the older games got the best music!!
That's handy but come on, if I gave it a full force running, mid air, knee extension kick that you use on a person's sternum in martial arts to knock them clear off their feet, I doubt it could stay standing. Of course they didn't make it to combat standard but...if they made it tase me before I got to it when it detected I was about to kick it, now that would solve the problem lol
sorry but you and the story are assuming vaccinations do in fact work when everyone knows they don't work nearly as well as health care people make them sound. 8th grade biology students even know that they only protect against the viruses that existed at the time the vaccine was made which is like at least a half a year out of date so vaccines are pretty pointless. If you had the flu near the end of the flu seasons last year, don't even bother getting a flu shot this year because it's probably the same strain that you're already immune to and THAT is NOT misinformation. Drug manufacturers saying flu vaccine = not catching the flu that season are the ones misinforming. That's just a flat out lie.
okay one, I don't think HAM can get through the center of the Earth and 2, we have satellite phones that run on batteries now that don't require a license and sound better. I thought with your post title you'd mention something like that.
they're just trying to determine if you really, actually have to be crazy to use windows. Yes, I know, that's not what the inkblots really determine most of the time. Speaking of that, the point of them is that the majority of people come up with the same small set of answers. So this is idiotic for password generation

good thing you posted that cuz I was like "Yeaaaaaaaah I learned that in fifth grade"
that article doesn't exist and aren't there infrared mirrors?
what if they paint it with chrome or install rounded mirrors on the missle? Wouldn't the laser bounce off?

I dunno, the North Korean crazy person did ask for nuclear bombs for Christmas and Bush is his pen pal so it could go either way lol

Let's dump a backup of all Slashdot stories and all seasons of Stargate SG-1 in there too. You know, just in case.
