I prefer 16x10. I used to have two 16x10 monitors at work, one 19 inches, the other slightly smaller than that. I kept asking my boss to get me a match for the larger one, even sent the link where she could get the exact same model. She ended up getting me two new monitors, both 16x9. There is just not enough vertical space for be to be comfortable using them.
I have an 1920x1200 at home, which makes me very comfortable.
In Greg Egan's book, "Distress", there are genetically engineered trees whose roots seek out wires that are buried underground and pump their own internally generated electricity into them.
Also mentioned are mosquitoes that are repelled by the smell of mammal blood, which is something else I think we should look into.
My only exposure to Space:1999 was a ViewMaster disk that was at my grandmother's house when I was a kid (probably originally belonged to my older cousins).
Can big brother withstand the onslaught of a hundred thousand little brothers?
I remember a comic book put out by Omni Magazine about a guy who took down criminals and dictators by walking into their headquarters and declaring their reign of power over. He was followed by thousands of tiny flying webcams being remote controlled by random people all over the world. I could honestly see something like that happening sometime soon.
It took long enough. Everyone screaming about the uterine cancer that girls can get, but nobody gives a damn about the penile cancer that boys can get.
In that east coast earthquake a few weeks ago, I was in my car and had my phone plugged into the recharger. The phone went flying and when I picked it up, the recharging plug had snapped off. The port was fine, though.
If you're going to do this, don't get belligerent. Calmly and politely refuse. Don't yell and scream, simply state that you do not consent to either the patdown or the scanner.
You'll probably still get arrested, but they will look even more like the bad guys.

And what happens when there is nothing else?
I'd love to see the campaign donor list for this dude.
Here you go.
Oddly enough, I don't see Comcast or Verizon on there.
He wanted to get another printer at the end of the story, so obviously other people did have them.
That's an awesome story.
Fuck that. We can design our own Open Source car!
I'm sure they're paid to photoshop all sorts of things, not just spheres in front of bits of nebulae.
Of course, from the quality of the photoshop, it looks like an intern did it.
There is absolutely nothing worth watching.
Do not taunt Free Speech.
Fine. They can fail and stay the hell out of the medical field.

God damn sexist media.

One thing is new. The fact that they are being open and honest about it.
Haven't you heard? The US Government has jurisdiction wherever the hell it wants.
What happens when two different 10%s of the population hold two different mutually incompatible ideas?
Under the legal argument of "Fuck you, we're the USA!"
What do you mean? Alley Cat was one of the few DOS games I remember that didn't increase in speed as the processor speed went up.
But if it's an open format, then anyone can create their own system for creating the documents, can't they?
I wish journalists would learn the difference between a flying car and a street-legal airplane.
They only got 12 people. I'm sure there's people who can still release it.
They're probably going to come down on the FBI next.
It was funny except for the last bit.
No way would someone like that know what "cubed" means.
