    And not a very good one at that.

    The kept postponing IJ4 to make sure they had the perfect script, then settled for this drek... They might as well have made a prequel.

    Not only are they mostly airtight, they're also fairly soundproof. Makes them an effective deathtrap.

    I've added that to my list of ways to dispose of my enemies.. Your Secret Overlord thanks you. You will receive a box of chocolates at your work station soon. They most certainly do not contain Thallium and most certainly nothing radioactive... and completely 100% do not contain a combination of the two.

    This practice sounds like complete the opposite of the principles of scientific research.

    Of course. Publishers aren't in this for the science.

    0.3% feels substantial to you? You aren't going to switch schools over another $30. You might switch on the principle, but not for economic reasons. Just driving out to the university, getting lunch, and spending your time looking at the program costs more than $30.

    It doesn't matter what mechanism Unisoft use.
    The technology is available today to make the impact of this change be no longer than it takes BGP to converge on the internet if they move the IP addresses with them... or around the duration of a TTL expiry for a DNS record.

    There is NO reason why it has to be any longer ..

    The question is, though, what did they break? What did they disable? What functionality did they decide their users didn't need to be using any more?

    What makes this material different from that of our solar system? It's got the same kind of atoms. And why do they say *that* material is what we're made from? As far as I'm aware, we're made from the material of *our* solar system, not that of another.

    Because it has 'robotics' and 'Uncanny Valley' in its word cloud. Now you know how to get to front page of Slashdot.

    For the sake of balance someone should make a Lego Newt Gingrich and upload it to Cuusoo to guarantee him a frontpage post too.
