Since when did Slashdot become a posting for second-rate articles that are all FUD and gossip mongering when there are actually awholelot more interesting and thought-engaging articles out there?
Slashdot eds please focus on posting real news again and leave the drivel aside. You are not digg.com and the/. rep does more for the site than your stupid clicks.
actually imo there probably is no need for sex games, if gamers wanted to get girls (or guys) they could just walk out of their front door and chase some tail in real life i.e. real life action i dont think simulation here is necessary for sex, as opposed to other things such as city building, or fighting wars or shooting people.
maybe it is possible, but theres just a lot less demand for it. oh and the whole censorship thing isnt helping. (dont know whats up with that). but then again theres games for cooking and taking care of pet dogs and farmville but i guess theyre a lot more "mainstream" activities.
Obviously this means we should abdicate (forcibly, if necessary) all control over our computing devices to large corporations with a vested interest in denying us the ability to use them as we see fit.

i think the fact that Kramnik offered his hand probably shows that the computer is the most human-like chess player theyve achieved to date (human symbolic gesture)
Can't say I know how long approval in the UK will take either, and I agree that if anything does come of this it will be at the long end of their estimate at the soonest.
at the soonest:
lab prototype design and lead modification (now) - 2-5yrs
clinical trials - +5yrs
regulatory approval and marketing - +2yrs
and given at any stage the project could just break down with delays.. hope you'll be holding onto that cold for a while
I don't think it'll look good on paper though, seeing as University nowadays is all about qualifications and so on. Would you really want a course "English - Zombie Studies in the modern arts" on one of your transcripts when you're getting that job?
Vibrations of the solar magnetic field line loops pump energy into the plasma fraction of the gas above the visible "surface", heating it. Reconnection of the lines cause the new loops to expand like released springs, catapulting the entrapped plasma outward.
Discoveries like these really make you wonder and marvel at the incredible physics of the universe. I mean, who makes up all this stuff? It's just incredible to see atoms and molecules self-align themselves according to pre-planned rules like gravity, electromagnetism etc in a seeminly random way to create what is.
you dont know that. a lot of innovation has come through seemingly "useless and wasteful" forays. look at the iphone, netbooks, hybriod cars.. this may lead on to the next big thing: LCD-world here i come!
at least you can remove it, Windows Media Player 11 is infused into Windows Vista, making it impossible to remove.
It doesnt make any rational sense to fully force a media application (software), onto an operating system.

And thus Apple iOS was born.
