Take a bucket of water. Dump it out on a flat surface. All of the water will be expanding from the place you poured it out from, but there still will be "collisions" from various "droplets" of water.
This "old skool" thing is simply ridiculous, ok so you discovered Flickr maybe 6 months before other people did - there are no prizes for this and it has no effect whatsoever on your value to society or as a person in general !
Aha! Here your argument falls apart. This is the kind of nonsense I would expect from someone with a slashdot id > half a mill.
The reason I use them is because I appreciate how much time is put into making a modern game. I want to make sure that I don't miss any parts of the game.
Usually I will play through the game once on my own, but then use the strategy guide to go through a second time and hit all the side quests.
Trust me, I have seen a lot of movies both in the theater and at home (LoTR Trilogies, Ice Age, etc). The picture/sound quality in my home theater creates a lot fuller, more entertaining experience.
Plus I don't have to deal with gum on the floor, cell phones, and noisy people. Home theater equipment is dropping in price very quickly, I think this is the theaters biggest concern, not how fast a movie goest to DVD.
It's this sort of "forget about it, I don't care" mentality that is allowing corporations to steadily erode our rights. It gives the corporations the artistic license to experiment with new and whacky control schemes and see which ones stick and which ones cause a backlash.
I never liked strict professors, ones that took attendance, or dictated the way you learned the class material. It is the professor's job to make an education available, and fairly grade the student on how well they learned the material presented. In college, the student directly pays for that education. Therefore, the student can choose to learn in any manner they want. If that is using a laptop to take notes, and only showing up to class once a week, that is the student's decision, not the professors.
However, during REM sleep, your brain is at a very high level of metabolic and electrical activity, and is doing things like reinforcing long term memory.
You're right - this link shows there were over 17 active pirates in 2005 alone, and that's not including other piracy-related groups such as buccaneers or raiders.
The chance it will work is around 50% and experts have expressed safety and ethical concerns about the procedure. The recipient would have to take powerful anti-rejection drugs for life, which carry considerable long-term health risks...
I agree. What we need to do is tell all of our non-techie friends that Blu-Ray is better. Maybe we can actually have the better format win this time...
Slashdot Mirror
I wonder what the going price would be for it on eBay?
They expect to get excellent blacks (the bane of digital display technologies) by using motor oil from my 1999 Saturn.

That terrible Grip
Does that imply that there exists a person on Slashdot with a sufficiently low UID to give orders to NASA?
Is it me?
So Google lost some cache...they have a market cap of over $140 Billion, no biggie.
Also to note...All PS3's came with a coupon for a free Blu-Ray movie. How many of those were included in the strong sale numbers?
Now all we need is our flying cars!

Why settle for 100 inches?

Yes, that attitude is very similar to this one.
I never liked strict professors, ones that took attendance, or dictated the way you learned the class material.

I read this article on PhysOrg.com http://www.physorg.com/news11538.html (yes I'm to lazy to HTML'ize that link)
But you had the energy to type out HTML'ize?
However, during REM sleep, your brain is at a very high level of metabolic and electrical activity, and is doing things like reinforcing long term memory.
So my brain gets defragged every night?
Scientists are planning on launching huge copper slugs at Mars...
But where will they find all of that copper?
In other related news, PETA expresses their displeasure in Sony killing Aibo.
Actually, I only need one method to make sure that the machine is truly clean:
You're right - this link shows there were over 17 active pirates in 2005 alone, and that's not including other piracy-related groups such as buccaneers or raiders.
Or the RIAA.
To get security you have to spend a metric-fuckton of CPU cycles.
How many Volkswagon Beetles does it take to carry a metric-fuckton?
The chance it will work is around 50% and experts have expressed safety and ethical concerns about the procedure. The recipient would have to take powerful anti-rejection drugs for life, which carry considerable long-term health risks...
So what's the downside?
I agree. What we need to do is tell all of our non-techie friends that Blu-Ray is better. Maybe we can actually have the better format win this time...
No, no, no....we really need to know how many of these things would be equivalent to 1 VW Beetle.
