Personally I just want the "Hate" button. So I can show my hatred for all the stupidity on the web without having to comment. Would save us all a little bit of stress/work eh?
your comment about birds made me think of Airships. Castle Wulfenback anyone? I mean it is just as impractical...see comment further down. Plus an airship would be freakin' sweet.
I have finished all of Girl Genius Online up to date and I'm pissed that it just stopped! I really did find that a good read: airships, AI, mad science - brilliant!
It has been added to my RSS feed and now I have another thing to wait for on a continuous basis...
Treated like DNA eh? Granted this isn't the same era as 12 Angry Men where the woman's eyesight is called into question (aha cameras!), but still it leaves much to be desired unless a clear shot is gained. Being that I do not know much about what is judged as clear, anyone care to help clarify this here for me? Is there some confidence interval? Do they run facial recognition? (Perhaps I just have bad reading comprehension haha)
Point is when someone makes a comparison between fingerprints and DNA to CCTV (not always stellar HD) cameras, I start to wonder...
I think this party is more knee jerk by many ultra conservatives than anything else. To me they do not hold a huge potential "threat" to the financially supported two party system in place.

When I said "bringing this to 'main street'", I was alluding, not exclusively, to the tea party currently existing and how they have found their numbers. This is the foundation of a grassroots campaign, as it is referred to, which I believe it is the foundation for a large scale change in thinking. I will refuse to believe that a government would be any worse from what I believe being explained and accepted. (See what I did there?) The point is everyone has an opinion (it is like a bellybutton!). I respect this to the fullest extent and although I respect an individual's right to an opinion, I will still try and persuade them that they are wrong.
We cannot give up ideals to silence the opposition, otherwise we'd be no better than the idea we call America. (And in this case it is lobbyists more than a political party)
Typical grass roots movements grow exponentially so sensing the quorum is an easy problem -- once the tipping point is reached, it's obvious to everyone simultaneously. I think that's a good thing.
Very difficult my friend, for the people that are the loudest are right...kindergarten logic.
The real question is, when will be the tipping point in America? At some point there will need to be a march on Washington not for piracy, but privacy on multiple fronts. When these issues start affecting even more of the masses in a daily fashion, this may happen. Everything from airport scanners, to cell phone tracking, to packet inspection, to... I just wonder what will be the metaphorical straw to break the camel's back.
Personally, I'll gladly pay for my gas and beer costs to march on Washington, as soon as a big enough march is organized. For now our job is getting the next door neighbor concerned, bringing this to "main street". Make it applicable to them, in a subtle non-trollish manner (haha). The one thing that can save America, or any other nation who is driven by the will of it's citizens, is to educate and make the issues tangible, clear-cut.
I refuse to believe there is nothing that can be done. To have a government of the people, for the people, and by the people, well...you have to start with informing the people.
Now are you? I actually found this interesting! Plus that is why we have comments...to explain this (later on...) to the rest of us. Moderation is gold.
And I bet you are not a "small girl". Lets say she weighs 80 lbs. That is 2400mg. I would call poison control. Plus this is all at once, not 12 a day. Seriously? You're an idiot.
My uncle who has had a knee replacement and two artificial hips (among other issues) has taken ibuprofen for a long time.
He didn't always take it with food as instructed. Well this landed him in the hospital ~6-7 months ago for major stomach ulcers/bleeding. Doctors are 95%+ sure it was ibuprofen. He still takes the drug today, just on a full stomach.
800mg for a little girl is pretty steep, that is usually prescribed in the wake of chronic pain associated with a surgery/etc.
There's no telling what deviant acts a 12-year-old might commit under the influence of four Advil.
4 of those...I would call poison control immediately.
I don't see the point of buying games that "aren't bad".
Actually I really wanted to play Revenge of the Titans
If you want to donate something to charity, just do it but don't feel you have to compensate the game makers for mediocrity.
I couldn't agree more, I guess some people like the "gift basket". Personally I give away (almost too much) money to many small organizations and large alike, and can confidently say that I never got more than a "thanks" on many occasions...and I'm OK with that!
who buy shitty chartiy records
(Every holiday at my parents, I notice they are suckers for this...donate but don't torture everyone's ears! Funny you would mention this haha)

Please read the article, thanks.

Make sure you get the Monster Cable version, we want nice strong clean signal!
Why is it impressive that a smaller solid state drive performs as well as a standard size one?
Is it the size of the ship or the motion of the ocean? (Sorry couldn't help myself.)
Otherwise, good point!
Curses!

In relation to my concern on usage, you have a good point.
Reading up on this more I also saw what the BBC reported with dailymail that
But Detective Chief Inspector Mick Neville said Scotland Yard has revolutionized the use of CCTV by treating it like DNA or fingerprints.

It's called The Tea Party.
I think this party is more knee jerk by many ultra conservatives than anything else. To me they do not hold a huge potential "threat" to the financially supported two party system in place.

Could we engineer some kind of IQ-based virus?
Natural Selection. :)
This was really well dictated. Nice way of putting it.

You want something recent and boring?
Unfortunately I do not live in Europe (for those reasons I suppose), but you did happen to nail my father's favorite:
4. You can have endless fun poking overzealous environmentalist by asking in true Fox news style "is this the global warming?"
It isn't even out of ignorance he brings this up, but I think to watch the squirming at the holiday reunion...That does cheer me up :)
sampled the art, seems well thought out. I'll check it out!
I fire up Left 4 Dead 2, bust out a chainsaw, axe or a katana and just go to town on some Zombies
Amen.
They are the app provider for the pc world. Apps take less money and commitment, but provide satisfaction none-the-less.
I see and era emerging of apps and blockbusters...quality existing on both sides when necessary.
Argue with me, tell me there isn't a niche for both?
Whether it be a suit-locker full of playboys or something that requires a flash codex, you get my point.
I hate ignorant people. I'm really just at that point this holiday season Slashdot. So much bad news someone cheer me up...please.

"Feeling old yet? Smithsonian...perfect. Just perfect."
(Was my friend's response...I'm too young to appreciate this fully, he is not).
Well, the article might be biased.
My original submission had a disclaimer...
Come to think of it that is not my description or quote at all :) Funny. (mine wasn't stellar either)
I just couldn't find any other source at the time...
How's this under YRO?
Just asking.
Hell I have no idea. When I saw this story I was thinking more in the lines "cyber-warfare" as the media dubs it.
Perhaps TDG (technology does good) is better haha

I dual boot linux and windows.
I paid double of the average Linux user. (before this was a slashdot story)
But is there a bias for Slashdot users?
Either way they actually aren't bad games and even if your not feeling generous, a few bucks doesn't hurt for a good cause.
