When will MS include Virtual Desktop in their OSs? Until then I believe that those of us who have virtual desktops can put that ad window in the most rotten of desktops and keep on surfin. I don't know how many people use this and "surf for
money", but since it is so easy I suppuse there
must be some. Or am I wrong, is it (today) possible to check if a window is displayed or not)?
I cannot get into the science daily but I have some related info. The front page of Physics Today Jan 2000 holds a picture of an eye where the cones are painted red, blue, and green. Cover title is Supernormal Vision. Inside is an article by D.T. Miller on "Retinal Imaging and Vision at the Frontiers of Adaptive Optics". One interesting conclusion is that the pupil should be enlarged after correction has been done to increase preformance of the eye. With simulation of adaptive optics in combination with pupil enlargement you get a picture that gets aliased (like in computer graphics), ie the cones and rods are to large to resolve the image and hence the brain might create an image that is pixelated (or is Brain GTS(tm) equipped with full screen anti-aliasing?).
Slashdot Mirror
A cheap quartz clock, some hands and a failed
CD-R makes a beautiful (geekish) wall clock.
Either assable it your self to make it a home-made
gift or give it as a kit.
(Personally I have a purple DVD-R on the wall with golden hands...)
