De-evolving back to our ancestors would destroy our way of life.
I don't think anyone wants to leave their house to go take a dump in a smelly box outside, as the rain beats down.
It is not a opiate rush you feel, it is a dopamine rush.
The problem indeed is with people who can't stop. People who half to play their online games before they do their home work, or care for their children.
I don't need a label on my games/ect. telling me that I might like them too much.
Having had a fairly expensive Canon DSLR stolen, it would seem that this could also be used as some sort of biometric device for allowing access to the camera.
A user could set the camera to ask for a PIN code every time you start the camera for the professional photographer who needs uninterrupted shooting, or requiring the PIN every 500 shots or so for the average hobbyist who occasionally uses the camera.
While, you may not get the camera back if it was actually stolen, it would at least prevent the thief from getting use out of your camera. It could also allow you display information about the camera owner when a PIN is entered incorrectly possibly allowing a good samaritan to return your precious DSLR to you.
How do you know this senior manager isn't gay? He may just make him sit next to his desk... at least if the gays appreciate porn as much as us straight guys. An IT tech who magically brings porn to my desktop when he comes near, sweet.
It contains an accelerometer to stabilize the image and reduce blurriness Canon uses gyroscopes to change the angle of one of the elements inside the IS series lenses in order to compensate for camera shake, allowing the photographer to slow the shutter by one or two stops more than a non-IS equipped lens (1/20th instead of 1/80th, ect...). Other manufacturers move the camera's sensor in much the same fashion to accomplish the same image stabilization effect.
How is an accelerometer in a low resolution, wide angle camera going to accomplish counteracting camera shake? Any insight?
Less impressive than a humans touch, but in the end it is just as valuable.
Before computer automation it was valuable and impressive when a person worked out long mathematical equations ect. When computers came a long and made that task take 1/10000th the time, it was also valuable and impressive.
The fact that computers can preform these types of problems is just as valuable, if not more valuable than ever before, but I feel that as time passes others consider this automation more of a fruit of invention rather than the complex technical process that it really is.

Can you elaborate... I don't quite understand.
Nevermind, I guess for this to work you and your partner must lay static for an hour.
Now, in the middle of intercourse if your condom tears, your still safe. YOUR CONDOM IS FIXING ITSELF!!!

As long as doing something (gaming, gambling, alcohol, drugs) potentiates the production of dopamine, then it has the potential to cause addiction.
Doing things you enjoy are fun, usually when you're having fun dopamine levels rise significantly in your brain.
Dopamine is commonly associated with the pleasure system of the brain, providing feelings of enjoyment and reinforcement to motivate a person proactively to perform certain activities.

I think you're getting water and Di-hydrogen monoxide confused...
Why not handicap his prosthetic legs so that it returns about the same energy per stride than normal legs.

The kids which were alienated from SCHIP will be glad to see their mother country's climbing economy inversely apply to their health.
