That is GENIUS, people. That might be the most accurate and biting social commentary I've heard in years. Caste systems BLOW monkeys. Innocent monkeys.
They can just take one of those nuclear weapons from their ongoing cold war with Pakistan, strap it onto a chimp's back and let 'er fly! Now, I'm not a rocket scientist, but that sounds pretty feasible.
Something similar happened to me, when someone changed their name to exactly the name of my father, and our credit reports got mixed up. (They lived in the same town, so it was odd.) All it took was a call to the credit company to get it straightened out, but we need to call occasionally to make sure that the credit gets fixed. 'das all.
Well, it sounds good in theory, but really, all you're gonna get is "In Soviet Russia, MONEY watches YOU!" comments and goatse.cx links hidden in the code.
I don't think that being "very lonely, depressed, negative, anti-social, brilliant people" is caused by the electronics. We're just drawn to the stuff BECAUSE we're very lonely, depressed, negative, anti-social, brilliant people. But hey, what do I know, I'm just a very lonely, depressed, negative, anti-social, brilliant Engineering student.
I mean... they're really making an example out of JESUS in the name of decency and being good Christians. Morality for the sake of our good religious children. So let's jail JESUS! (Have I made my point?)
You are well-spoken. You are also clearly intelligent. But you are a blatant racist. Can there not be a patriotic immigrant? You, sir, may be smart... but you are also an idiot.
No machinima category! Or does that count as animation? Seriously, they're bound to bore/. readers without a machinima category. (Or some sort of IP-related lawsuit to rant about.) But seriously, will the technology ever progress enough to be seriously considered? And MORE seriously, will SOMEONE please come up with a better name than machinima? Gah!
Parallel universes imply running in parallel to each other. And if you define the universe in a standard Euclidian fashion, yeah. That is what it is. A bunch of big 3D planes updating infinitely fast. Time is a dimension, chum.
Allow me to quote the title: "Ground-breaking work in understanding of time; Mechanics, Zeno and Hawking undergo revision" I don't understand what the hell he's talking about. Either I'm not as smart as I think I am, or he's BSing his way through this. Zeno's theories are pretty well-established, you know "Man is walking across a road, if you keep on dividing the time intervals, he'll never get there." This Lynds seems to just be restating the theory with some fancy terms. I wouldn't be surprised if this were another Alan Sokal or, even worse for the realm of physics, Bogdanov brothers type of work.
You are correct on that last statement. But that's all. As far as driving without your seatbeat deserving the death sentence, that's unnecessary. Let them dig their own graves. And furthermore, not only is it legal to not watch commercials, but it is illegal to tape a show and fast forward through the commercials. So long as you are not showing the video tape in a non-private (commercial) area.
Then I'm all for it! I just collected my $23 million dollars from the Nigerian government last week! I mean, seriously, what is there not to believe about such an offer? Now I'm all in favor of SCO! Maybe they'll give me ANOTHER $23 million! So I can buy some overpriced movie tickets! Boo MPAA ! (+5 Anti-MPAA)

It was an AOL commercial. And an annoying one at that.

I wouldn't trust Crazy Eddie if I were you.
After all, they're bigger than U.S. Steel!
(The Godfather Part II reference... and it actually makes sense, if you've seen the movie.)

It's a good thing that SCO isn't claiming ownership to ALL Unix variants... otherwise they'd have to call it 699DollarsBSD!

PicoBSD made EVIL!
You know, every time I hear "quid pro quo," I can't help but think of this 8-bit Theater strip.

No... the REAL question is would it make Dean Kamen clean Steve's soiled pants in order for him to denounce it.

Insightful, yes. Informative, no.
Whoever modded this up informative is on crack. IT'S A JOKE, PEOPLE! See... a parody of the RIAA... see?
Actually, I'm surprised that /. didn't take down the ENTIRE Geocities server. :-D

An INTENTIONAL dupe. I'm impressed.
"This hit the news over a year ago, but we didn't have the technical details. "
It brought distributed computing to the forefront of media attention and to many user's desktops. For that, I give it credit.
