I'm pretty sure that had nothing to do with my genitalia or complexion since few people know what my complexion happens to be, and even fewer have seen my genitalia.
"I have a dream that my four little programs will one day live in a kernel where they will not be judged by the complexion of their genitalia, but by the content of their code."
That said . . . Magic Mouse support is fine . . . but where's the support for my Magic 8 Ball . . . ?
Could someone who understands what the difference between these two posts is possibly explain it for the benefit of those of us - particularly from outside the USA - who don't.
Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump are sitting in a bathtub drinking champagne, and Donald asks Hillary:
"Hillary, which one of us is Chairman, and which one is CEO . . . ?"
Hillary Clinton answers:
"I'm Chairman, Donald."
Donald Trump responds:
"Fine, Hillary, then I'm CEO, and that means that you have to go get the next bottle of champagne from the refrigerator."
I've gotta look to see if this is available in the US...are they reliable and safe enough to use on your front lawn, so that you don't get sued by some kid getting hurt by one running into your yard, etc....
Hmmm . . . that's why I might get one . . . I won't need to yell at the kids to get off my lawn anymore . . . the RoombaMower will keep them away . . . or make Soylent Green Mulch out of them.
If I remember correctly, US law differentiates between "unsolicited" visitors and "solicited" visitors. If the mailman, a "solicited" visitor, trips and breaks his leg on your doorstep . . . he can sue you.
If a neighborhood kid, an "unsolicited" visitor, tries to pick a fight with your lawnmower . . . he can't sue you.
Hmmm -- maybe that could be one of the simulations: VR Economy Class.
To complete the effect, they could also install "SensorRound" and "Feel Around" . . . the seats could compressed and squeeze you, and blubber from the virtual fat person next to you could spill over the arm rest!
It would serve to remind First Class passengers why they are paying for First Class.
Well, I took a walk by outside where the Forum is being held, and asked a participant who was outside what he thought of the talk.
He cautioned that he was a physicist, and not fully qualified in that area, but the proof seemed to make sense to him. It is a proof by contradiction, and he could understand the contradiction.
What is interesting, is that Atiyah was not directly looking at the Riemann Hypothesis, but was studying something else . . . and just happened to stumble across this.
I'll see if I can stumble across some more participants, and ask them later . . . this evening, after they've had a few beers.
while you drive around in your Tesla in the Hyperloop.
My Boring Company Flamethrower produces plenty of CO2, which I will use to power the battery, and the electricity will split water to make more hydrogen fuel for the flamethrower, which closes the perpetual energy Hyperloop, and all the world's energy problems and Global Warming are thus solved.
. . . and an additional Tesla option will burn the hydrogen with oxygen to produce fresh, desalinated water, so you can water your lawn while chasing the kids off it with your flamethrower.
This was also my first thought. A conspicuous coincidence . . . the EU snubs Theresa May in Austria last week because they don't like her Chequers Plan . . . and a few days later she announces the Cyber Force.
I guess the EU will respond by announcing their own Cyber Force.
. . . but then again . . . nobody in the UK besides Theresa May seems to like her Chequers Plan either . . . so maybe she wants to keep an eye on the UK bastards, as well . . . ?
The UK Cyber Force could have been really cool, if Gerry and Sylvia Anderson were still around to equip them . . .
. . . nah, then everyone would start posting here: "Funding secured!" I'm taking Slashdot private!
I thought that the PETA folks might get their bowels in an uproar about giving Molly to octopi . . .
. . . but then I figured that those kind researchers thoroughly and extensively tested the Molly on themselves first, before giving a dose, to the ones they love most.
So, for the follow-up research grant . . . what does Viagra do to octopi . . . ? Could rigid digit octopi save the coral reefs . . . ?
It's worse than that because the UK will never be able to do this now without appearing to be following the EU lead which the brexiteers will deem completely unacceptable.
Well, without following the EU lead, the UK could hold a referendum and ask its people what they want.
A referendum was how the UK decided to brexit() in the first place.
That said, brick and mortar retail sales are also going down steadily, so that raises the question of where people are buying their food (maybe grocery stores are bucking the trend?).
How do you get upset by reading about useful information?
Just like you get upset about reading a bad book . . . it's boring.
Manuals need to present hidden features as "Easter Eggs" that users can collect for points, fame and glory . . . and then use the points to buy more features.
Manuals need addictive "Game of Thrones"-like plots that induce users to binge read them . . . with fictional creepy creatures, intrigue and dubious wars over petty matters.
Manuals could offer an additional porn version with a "Game of Bones"-like plot.
Manuals need to have stuff that is bad for you, like sugar, nicotine, alcohol and fat. People love to consume stuff that is bad for them.

What's wrong with asking how the universe works?
. . . no, the universe does not work . . . it gets UBI . . .
Now, what about dark anti-matter . . . what should that stuff taste like . . . ? Or should it be called anti-dark matter . . . ?

No . . . that just doesn't sound right.

"Did you say shrubberies?"
"Yes, shrubberies are my trade. I am a shrubber. My name is ShanghaiBill the Shrubber. I arrange, design, and sell shrubberies."

A tunnel would be an obvious solution.

Can you implement blockchain in COBOL?
Here's where you can ask: https://www.ibm.com/it-infrast...
Go ahead and ask . . . and then tell us how it went . . .

Any simple proof would have been found long ago.

Looking forward to the creative hacks people will come up with for these forced insurance trackers.
Well, this explains why I saw a guy jogging this morning with about twenty fitness tracking devices on his arms and legs.
I thought he was probably a student in the sports medicine program at the local university.
But I guess he was just outsourcing fitness training for a lot of folks who would rather pay him to wear their devices, than to jog themselves.
Some fields almost everyone used LaTeX, some fields almost everyone uses Word (with third party extensions), some fields there is a mixture.
In the fields I know, most academics use grad students to write their papers.

Artificial Intelligence finds artificial brain damage.
This is a synthetic brain, not an artificial brain, Jim.
So the really interesting question, for the IgNobel, is . . . "Do synthetic brains dream of polyester sheep . . . ?"
That said, brick and mortar retail sales are also going down steadily, so that raises the question of where people are buying their food (maybe grocery stores are bucking the trend?).
