Yeah, and I'm an American wqho has the letter 'zee' at the beginning of my name. Wtf is a 'zed' anyway? It sure throws off the rhyme in the alphabet song! I also wish the pronunciation of 'w' would be 'wuh' or 'wah' instead of the overly-verbose 'double-you'.
BE easy on him, he's Canadian, where they spell 'theater' as 'theatre' and 'single' as 'sinlge'. I guess its like how 'Favre' is somehow pronounced 'Farve'.
Yes, quantum mechanics, the catch-all term for charlatans as well as the simply mistaken who think that you have to add another layer of mystery, a man behind the curtain, to explain human consciousness, as if the massive and complex processes in the brain were somehow not enough.
But in Japan, robots can do anything, from fighting giant undersea monsters, to fighting giant space monsters, so I would guess they could do a simple thing like dance.
You mean simple amino acids creating more complex ones, and taking a billion years to figure out the cool trick of replicating itself? No need for an invisible hand, just blind, drunken* inevitability. Though I wouldn't quite call it spontanious, unless you're speaking in geological timeframes.
Please come up with a better theory, which doesn't involve invisible patriarchs in the sky, and takes into account the massive body of evidence already supporting evolution.
Evolution is only counter-religious if your religion is counter-evolutionary. There's got to be a religion or three that concurrs with evolution, or at least has nothing to say against it.
oh wow... check out the first after-picture (the first in the series). That bend in the road near the top of the image, there is still one tree left... amazing that everything around it got flattened, and one tree was left standing.
No no, you do like one would to a little brother, you cut some of his hair off with safety scissors and crazy-glue it to his face. Or in this case, your hair and face. I'm sure that would make an, uh, interesting look on Star Trek.
well, u never left an email, but I code primarily in C, C++, Python and occationally Objective-C. I also have Perl experience, some LISP, and can probably pick up quickly whatever you throw at me:-)
I am an unemployed software engineer. I live in the Detroit metro area, but I am working for $7.50 an hour at a sporting goods store (If you're in Utica, you know where to find me!).
I have almost no capital to start my own contracting work, or write my own software and sell it online, and other software jobs are close to nil around here. Right now, work exhausts me so that I don't have enough energy to spend 10 hours a day working on potentially profitable personal enterprises.
You automatically lose when you invoke into a talk about the Scientific Process, God or the supernatural or anything else outside the scope of science. Why not claim that Odin created the universe? I think he's cooler anyway, all that Norse stuff.
"Now ask yourself what's harder: setting off a huge bang and letting it go from there, or creating a whole universe from nothing in a week?"
Never having done either, I wouldn't know. Are you implying that it's easier stretched out over a longer period of time? It's not writing a term paper, it's forming Everything.
"I'll thank you not to imply that I insult the object of my religion on a daily basis and I'll give you the same courtesy."
The universe is not obliged to concord with the arbitrary beliefs of desert folk who lived millenia ago, or with any beliefs at all, just so you can feel better about things.
Slashdot Mirror
"Ishika Gupta, a seven month old girl child "
As opposed to CmdrTaco, who is a thirty-something man-child?
I kid, I kid.
I think the Slashdot IT section's caption should be "Whats IT? IT is it!" as a most excellent homage to Faith No More.

You can get one now if you're Ed Gein
"Wow, Stan Lee came back?"
"Stan Lee never left."
I think Hollywood needs to combine the explosion and sex and make SEXPLOSIONS! That's something like Anna Nicole Smith I guess...

spontanious generation?

*Metaphorically speaking.

Ugh, this whole story is a troll.

from the page: "...mental retardation coupled with an unusual facility with language, a love for music..."
So... it... must-be-named... after-William....... Shat-NER!

I'm a pretty good coder too.

actually I think it was a reference to "Naked Gun 2 1/2", and the 3rd N.G. movie was "Naked Gun 33 1/3"
here are your Real Genius quotes
No, you can only play Duke Nukem for half an hour, sorry.
Having moved from California to Michigan, I can say that it is pretty accurate, but I would also add EAT in several places on that list.
So I'm probably feeding a troll...
