Yes, ya right. That's exactly what I thought. But I think that in both cases, the word was used incorrectly. When I hear "soup", I think about a liquid in which stuff is floating. Where's the liquid here?
Yesterday's story was no better, since there was no liquid, the stuff was barely matter as we know it!
I would have changed the word "soup" for something more appropriate, like "a mix"
But we can admit that this picture looks the hell like a driver's licence picture. Unelegant however from the ad buyer, but this was maybe his best way to have a good ROI. At least, if the story gets a lot of attention.
I don't care, imagine at 100 Ghz how fast I can react... and punch you in the face, take your underware and wrap you up entirely in them, while you only got the time to tighten your hand with the intention to punch me!
So this is not any better from company A to company B. In the end, the answer always come from the economic side, not the human side.
I know a problem with your accelerator or rear differential can have more tragic consequences than having a bug on your home computer. But ever thought about computers in hospitals running Windows? Or an ATM running Windows? Even Windows bugs can have some tragic consequences...
Inform the public about those scams. I think the ISPs and Email service providers should send regular reminders by Email about those scams AND new variants that appear.
This way, there are fewer possibilities to send money to Nigeria, and we keep users informed about latest tricks.
And after that, if you get caught, you deserved it.
It is very sad that we won't go back to the moon, but why send humans there when robots can do a job as great as Opportunity, Spirit, MGS and all that?
It is less expensive and less risky, although not as fun, to send robots. We don't need to bring them back either.
Is there a patent for breathing, something like "A way to create a vacuum inside the human body in order to force external air inside the lungs, so oxygen can be transferred to the blood."
I'd love to patent it, then charge something like 0,0001$ per breathe per individual. At 12 breathes per minute * 6 billion humans, it's something like 36 000$ per hour.
What's great is that it would cost every human ONLY 52.56$ per year. Pretty reasonnable!
That was true ten years ago. But we do realize now that plant based fuels and recycled french fries oil can't power all the cars all over the planet. Unless you want to pay 45$ for your Mini Wheat or 75$ for your pop corn. And transform Central Park, the Bois-de-Boulogne and countless other urban parks into.... cornfields!
Isn't it the car dealer who has to tell the client the charging specs? Then the client can have the right picture of how he is going to manage charging his car.
Also, when you "try" your car's acceleration, it's obvious that you will get a shorter range. It's true with a gas powered car, and so it is with an EV.
And what would be the actual pricetag of such a device? I understand that we use more and more electronics to simplify the mechanics behind our devices. Now, with a pump, you need to physically inject air under the screen, so you have moving parts, and they are usually costly... besides, what would be the reliability of such a thing? and could you get a "flat" screen?

But at 4 trillion degrees Celcius, isn't it a bit hot?
Well, some Idle stories make it to the main page. But I agree that usually, they're worth it, not like this one which is total garbage...
Quit wasting my time while I'm wasting my employer's time!
I guess this is why it is tagged "Idle"...
Which I still had mod points for you. +++
Well...who expected something different anyway?
Well, I did... [Find / Replace] "in the future" --> "Right now"

Gotcha.
Imagine at what speed the cards are going to come down and bounce in the "Solitaire" Windows game at 100 Ghz!

Just like with Windows, you got a bug, report it to Microsoft, but until they get zillions of complaints, they won't put a dime in solving the bug.
I think he's like 10 seconds Tom...
So I agree with you, they deserve it...
So what's the solution?

Damn! I posted first, but since my Internet dish is pointed to MGS, my comment got there minutes later... So I'm far behind :-(

I am Canadian, you insensitive clod!
.5 micrometers, it would be more like 1000x1000x500.
And since we're talking about
You also forgot about the nano light-bulb, otherwise, you won't be able to see the beer in the fridge...
Sorry, I didn't specify. I was talking about nanobrews.
How many beer cans fit in a 0.5 micrometers refrigerator?
Mmm, using the strict definition of a "vacuum", even a Shop Vac is not really a vacuum.
In strict terms, "vacuum is a volume of space that is essentially empty of matter". But in everyday life, a vaccum is something that sucks air.

Ask yourself why you ain't rich buddy.
