Well that may just happen. Here on Slashdot where open source and do-it-yourself are considered superior to anything closed or controlled, I'm sure nobody would not think otherwise. Ironic if not.
... they washed the chip with a solution of gold particles, each of which measured about 30 nanometres across and was covered with peptides to help it stick to the bacteria.
The resulting layer of gold nanoparticles bristling from each bacterium carries electrical currents through the device.
Pimp my Bacterium!
Whenever someone covers anything in gold I'd say it deserves the "Pimp My X" moniker.
I've talked to suppliers on the phone and tourists from Ontario and it never amazes me that 90% of them alaways exclaim "Oh it's an hour earlier here than back home, I never knew that!"
Canada invented the idea of time zones. Stupid idea Ontario, get some balls.
From one side of Canada to the other there is a 4.5 hour difference. (most central Canadians don't even know there are two time zones past them to the East)
This type of system seems to appear every couple of years. I remember seeing on a science show a similar system, I think it was Beyond 2000 and Australian show, or maybe it was the Nature of things on CBC TV (Canada). It used three microphones to triangulate where the sound came from, the version I saw fired back.
Talk about a weird tangent on the robot vacuum business! What's next, Kraft Corporation making a combination cruise missle/cheese whiz dispenser?
Maybe someday in the future when we are more advanced we will pay for products and not even receive them at all! Now that would be far more advanced then our current backward freedom to copy something five times.
Really, it seems at times the entertainment industry doesn't want to sell anything. It almost seems as if they would be happy to sue you rather than risk selling you their product.
I can see some sort of ID required in the future before you buy a product and then link your ID to the product you bought. It's getting more Orwellian by the hour!

Sure if you pay Canada for the discovery of insulin. Germany for the car. China for gunpowder...

Wanting freedom to choose, free from another's control, freedom on your own soil to choose and do what you want to do.
Damn that's silly of us, the non-US people of the World, to want that isn't it?
You keep control I'm sure you know what's best for the rest of us Internet Pilgrims.

I wonder where a fella could get one of those laser-guided teat finders?
A billion dead World wide versus honoring the patent, tough call ;)
If this was done for AIDS who knows what it would be like these days.

The best post here!

Start hoarding storage devices now.

Bah! I tried ".nyud.net:8090" for the first time and thought I'd be cool for mentioning it here first!
Anyway, it was my first real test of it. Pretty cool. Even if it didn't work very well.
In ten years I've never sold any storage device I've owned.
Actually if you include the tapes I made in my tape drive of my Atari 600XL it would be about 20+ years.
Make it format-less, and make the media also the player.
If you hit Enter after you toggle it from "True" to "False" it goes back to "True". I'd say that's what he means.
If you exit the browser (i.e. don't hit Enter just exit the browser) and then go back you'll see it's "False".
Gotta love getting a new printer with half-filled ink cartridges too.
Indeed they are Gérard Depardieu!
So...they are about the size of a certain Danish pastry?
...and someday we'll be using grapes as fuel!
A single molecule transistor would be way smaller than the nanotube one.

Yeah it's a "server". Really it's just a midget in a garbage can painted beige. He spies on you.
