Cost less to the health care system, maybe. But if they die at 30 they spend what 10 years in the work force paying taxes? The rest of their life they are a tax write off and suck from the collective teet of society.
Today's games are still just cave paintings compared to what we will have in the future.
Get kids off of finger painting and on to world editors, then we will see what develops.
One typical story was about a boyfriend who leads his girlfriend across a bridge. In some versions, the boyfriend harmlessly walked his girlfriend across the bridge with no ill effect. In other cases, the boyfriend intentionally led the girlfriend along so she would break her ankle....
The confusion in the brain made it harder for subjects to interpret the boyfriend's intent, said Young, and instead made the subjects focus solely on the situation's outcome.
The magnetic pulse makes it so the subject fails to consider intent as a variable. This was only one story of the "several dozen" given in the test. Others, such as the examples given in the NPR report, include non-intentional harm compared to failed intentional harm.
1. Driving recklessly outside a school at dismissal time, but not hitting anyone.
2. Driving recklessly outside a school at dismissal time, and hitting someone.
But instead:
1. Driving without intending to hit a child and doing so.
2. Driving with the intent of hitting a child and failing to do so.
Most people would consider it more morally wrong to intend harm. The area of the brain being blasted is considered to be responsible for the determination of others' intentions. This experiment gets people confused on intent and default to the one that caused harm being more morally in the wrong.
doesn't even have a proper menu system. Makes me want to punch myself in the head.
All the character movement is done with the mouse and WASD. In the menu screen, I have to use the arrow keys, and get this, Left and Right Square Brackets to tab between menu screens.
Kill me now. No mouse function in the menu.
I saw this man's original video a while back (probably linked from/.). He's an honest cop trying to stand up for what he thinks is right. Any harm that comes to him as a result of his public denouncement of the corruption he was working with and under is an absolute horror in my mind.
If anyone has any practical suggestions as to what to do about this, I'd love to, not only hear them, but apply as much assistance as I can muster.

Some things may seem ridiculous at first, but lets get serious here. The floor is lava.
"...subscription to Verizon with 100 MB/s per month for free."
100MB/s/month?
What the heck is that?
It's amazing how 10 years experience and a mac can get you a good job.

Up all the post I don't care for as we speak.
Needs another denominator. Miles per acre per year or month?
So it's every apple product since the ipod - basically featureless and only tolerable to those with a thick eardrum, but hey, it sure is shiny.
Oh no. I can hear it now. The cat calls. "Get out of here, S.T.A.L.K.E.R.!"
I know you dont have a lot of friends, but why you gotta pick on people who can't defend themselves?
My recent OU Science degree is now worth that much more...
Also, congrats to Hla and his group.

Careful friend, you are getting dangerously close to some sense there. Better take a shower.
