I seem to recall that the first ObjC compiler by Stepstone translated to C, but modern ones go straight to object code, although a number of support functions are in C (like objc_msgSend(); )
"He's nothing but a low-down, double-dealing, backstabbing, larcenous perverted worm! Hanging's too good for him. Burning's too good for him! He should be torn into little bitsy pieces and buried alive!"
the device emits a streaming sheet of some particulate (water vapor for example) and then shoots a laser at it (or you could maybe just use a normal projector) such that most of the light hits the vapor particles, and shazam, instant hologram.
Difficulties include keeping the particle stream from being displaced while floating up (a wind current would interrupt and distort it) and not having real 3D at the moment - perhaps multiple sheets of rising particles would have to be layered, each representing a different 'slice' of the z-axis of the display.
"An inexpensive house-brand bending robot (gotfuturama.com) has been adopted by a group of Linux hackers that aims to make Fry's robot devices 'as capable as Mom's-brand gadgets.' The Bending Unit 22 is based on an Atari board that can run Linux or PC-DOS, and has six beer ports built in. It's listed for $45 online, but is reportedly on sale for $20 in some stores."
The intergalactic band Disaster Area was reached for comment about the 19 million amps released by scientists, and had only this to say: "Pfff. Amateurs."
Adium is cool, but it seems to only support the basics, i.e. no Yahoo Chat (which is full of dolts these days anyway), webcam, voice chat, etc
Yahoo's own client has webcam support, though there are many ways to crash it while you are serving video, and while doing so, the video tends to stall consistently within 10-15 minutes; voice chat isn't supported at all, as Yahoo uses a Windows-only voice protocol.
It's a cool multiclient with fun stuff like tabbed IMs, but not ready to replace most other clients for anything other than simple chat.
Joe Barton: [to jury] Yeah. I mean think about it. Why else would he be so obsessed with proving that *we* did it? And I don't blame 'im. If I was in his world-murdering shoes I would do [shakes scientist's shoulder] the exact same thing. I'd get a lotta [picks up and shows charts and diagrams to jury] evidence [puts them down and walks towards jury] and witnesses and I would try to pin it on some decent, hard working, honest *guy*. [rests arms on jury stand and head on arms]
Thinking human: [stands up from chair] Is it alright if we find the defendant guilty now?
It seems that some men love C0X, but most men want nothing to do with C0X. The men that like C0X say there's nothing like the feel of the thick C0X standard in your hands.

That's okay, I'd rather forget things sitting on my couch than remember everything laying in an iron lung.
a $1000 reward for a guy wanted on 35 counts? Cheepskates! Add a couple zeros to the back and I'll drag the guy in myself.
you have the brainpan of a stagecoach tilter!

Isn't that right, Hecubus?
Yes, Master!

Indeed.

Yeah and don't even bother trying to play Quake/CS/Doom3

what the hell kind of name is ZyXel? How is that even pronounced? Zai-shell? Zai-chel? (with or without the German ch) Zai-excel? Gimme a break.

That raises the question of why you are bragging about your 1-inch dongle...

They could call it 'Fista' to illustrate (in the most vulgar and sophomoric way) how badly you can get reamed by Microsoft. Ouch!
