There's 'another* doctor instead of Tom Baker? In fact, the humorless approach so favored as of late really does the whole show quite a disservice. And Tom knew it

Cool, let's disable updates altogether, and just let security holes wide open. What a nice advice....
You can if you want. I'll stick with the unfortunately named "update blocker" which should have been referred to as "Windows OS Upgrade blocker" since what it actually does is make windows update wotk exactly like it did in Windows 7 again. PS THX Hairy...
Yes...and? They're not proposing permanent treatments I don't think, just providing relief for people with unendingly painful conditions. And even if they are there's people who would certainly want to give up pain. I know someone who's largely non-functional because of chronic pain due to nerve damage. Her quality of life is terrible because of that, I'm sure it's worth the risk to her to be able to actually use both of her arms.
Just noticed your comment.. Indeed, nerve damage is the worst because they are the source of the pain signals. For instance I have 1 to 2 cm deep dermal ulcers that don't heal, but the nerve fibers do grow outside of the injury.. exposed to the air or dressing. It's like 100 abscess teeth! It soo sux. And I sure do feel for that friend of yours and will pray for her, if it helps...
The problem is, pain is remarkably important to humans. It tells us we are too close to the fire, or our finger is broken, or someone has just plunged a knife in our back.
Sure, there are some people who are constantly in pain that this could held with, and you want some pain relief while you are healing, but even when healing, you don't want the possibility of pain gone [ie, broken arm, you get up to go to the washroom and stub your foot, breaking your toe, you want to find out right then it's broken, not later when doctor tells you to just live with it like that.
Oh please I so DO want the continuous pain nightmare gone. I need continuous applications of topical anaesthetics on my dermal ulcers to literally keep from screaming.. But from the lab to the market is so interminably long that I fear that I will be dead before it EVER hits the market, or doctors will freak about prescribing it, or it will be so expensive that the physical pain will be replaced by financial pain..:sigh:
Wow. You actually read and remember what he wrote in that book? As far as his Christianity today interview.. of course I'd like to believe what he said was true. But then how does gay sex and chainsmoking cigarettes and cocaine fit in to his fervent Christianity lifestyle? I understand that getting elected on that basis would have been.. er.. difficult.. so like every president before him he professed to be a devout Christian. But "ye shall know them by their fruts".. eh? His is just a bit rotted on the tree... IMHO.
Canada isn't known for choice of telecoms anywhere. Want cable? It's either Shaw or Rogers available..but never both. You can try one of the small independant sevices but your Shaw bill better be paiid otherwise you can;t get sevice with them either. There's only one cable provider! WIfi? Same thing. ADSL? Telus. or Telus top choose from. That's western Canada of course. Don't know about the east...
Well.. part of the name is the same. Does TEDx have much call for talks by obsessive toenail clipping collecting club founders? Since he'll never get on a real talk like TED..
The title *could* have been written more clearly, you know.. I read it as the *software itself* submitted a screenplay to Amazon. So that's where A.I. develops literary talents? Frankly, it could be an improvement// I suppose.
Well.. Unlike drag racing which is still on the bleeding edge, Indy and Nascar seem to be giving in to the nanny factor.. "don't let them git a scratch on them lilly white drivers!" Hey auto racing is DANGEROUS!! Take away al l the risk and you might as well be racing on a video game! Actually, that's not always quite true, since indy is just like NASCAR.. or more precisely.. like 1960s muscle cars.. eschewing high tech for shoehorning a bigger engine in a small chassis. The fact is the entire US sport had a chance to keep the sport exciting without limiting all the HP some years ago when this inventor invented a shock absorbing gel so powerful it could render a 160 MPH accident survivable without major injury. Yet for some reason they banned the gel and you know where it ended up being used instead? In fuc*ing SHOES as an innersole! "Impact gel" they called it. It seems to have disappeared from the market though..:sigh:
Sadly.. "hilarity" really isn't the most appropriate word.. When a major news outlet like the NYT censors an article for containing the word "encrypt" then "freedom of the press" is under fire... However.. the evidence that itr is well and truly dead is that it only merits mention in a small clip in..yup.. slashdot. This is one instance where wider exposure might (at least) serve to accuse..or prick the disused consciences of the masses that let their freedoms rot in exchange for another episode if the Kard ass hions. Gawd how we have fallen.
There's no denying that ISIS are ruthless, but this has all the hallmarks of a false flag, and NOT an islamic assault. I think they simply blamed ISIS.. At least according to the radicals, Koran specifically forbids arbitrary killings and preferentially allows what is known as "suicide" killing. I'm not saying it really condones it, but in the eyes of these radicals it does. There is however , no precedent for this kind of behavior displayed in Paris. I do not know what the end game of these perpetrators is, but I don't think its "ISIS". Rather, I'm afraid I think it's more a "Gulf of Tonkin" or "Pearl Harbor" event..
Mine does. I fitrdt noticed it 10 years ago when ARACHNE suddenly couldfn't connrct no matter what I did. I had a large collection of legacy computers and started noticing that one by one.. they no longer could connect. It sucks when software is disabled like that. For instance.. As of today Torch no longer can download youtube videos since the new format has been introduced. Don't like it. My YT subscriptions page looks way too busy.
Actually I think OSX is LESS secure in part due to the fact that almost NOBODY has any malware protection. That makes the market share excuse entirely irrelevant as there are actually MORE susceptible macs than PCs.
I hate reading scanned books. The barely legible text curls up near the binding if the scanner was trying to preserve the book. Works great if you rip the pages out befoire scanning. Kinda not recommended with first edition Dickens though...:-)
Pretty soon just looking at a link without even clicking on it will be an offense.
Yep. Welcome to the dystopian future world of Minority Report, where computer algorithms based on the profile generated by all the data everyone allowed to be collected on them (from Facebook, Twitter, and other so-called 'social media') will be used to predict future violations of copyright and other laws, which you will then be proactively prosecuted for. Since trade agreements like the TPP and it's descendents will more or less allow corporations to do whatever they want to whoever they want, you'll just receive and invoice from the billing department of their legal division for your 'future violations', expected to be paid in full within 30 days, or face extradition to the country-of-origin of the corporation you're predicted to damage in the future, where you'll do hard labor the rest of your life.
Better not buy that shiny new computer then. It's "potential" infroingement. After all if 'infringers' use a computer then all computer users are "potential" infringers. (!)
C'mon.. what's a little corporate espionage between tech industry bedfellows?And hey.. nobody really spies on each other anymore anyways.. It's all just from reading too many John LeCarre books, right?.. And hey,can't let the shareholders down now, can we..;-)
Well.. space is.. like..um.. dangerous! And hey..wouldn't them pesky little critters just get irradiated into sterility? Or do these pathogens live on ionizing radiation like food?
