But asked if it would change his lifestyle, Yamashima, who works for a printing company, said: ``I don't know if it will change anything.''
The Japanese strike me as having a very wired lifestyle. Remember videophones? Remember the lack of excitement they recieved in the U.S.? If 3G were to catch on in the U.S. that would be a big deal, just because the general population doesn't want that sort of thing at present and the introduction would signal a significant change in the U.S. telecom market.
The Japanese are wild about a new electronic gadget? That isn't news.
True, but think of the cause of mad cow disease. That's believed to be a transmissible spongiform encephalopath, those types of pathogens are really difficult to destroy, and science does not yet fully understand how they function. They are thought to be proteins that self-replicate under the right conditions.
TSE's are relevant to the argument for the quarentine of rocks from mars because they cannot be disposed of through traditional means of disinfection. They resist heat, chemical antiseptics, and often continue to function after long dormant periods.
Just the sort of thing that would still be around after all other forms of life die.
We were amoung the first to move into a new neighborhood, so we have both a transformer and telecom boxes in our back yard. [makes stealing cable a breeze if one is so inclined] As the neighborhood has grown, our yard has been dug up many times. I have never liked this practice, but I understand that the cable company has some sort of contrect with the city, and the city has eminent domain.
I've been seeing fiber lines going in as COX is performing it's rebuild, and I don't know if the lines will be extended into the box behind my home.
I wonder, is it possible to steal internet access in the same way it is possible to steal cable service?
When I had braces my dentist prescribed Tylenol With Codine. You should try it.
As for the stomach-bleeders, I have to wonder if tapeworms cause a person to have a higher tolerance for pain. Many pain medications function by inducing bleeding of the stomach.
What is the deal with that Hinn guy? He's always grabbing people's chins causing them to fall to the floor. Where can I learn to do the vulcan chin lock?

I grabbed a copy of abiword the other day and installed it on one of the nuns' computers, and she was really excited - it's a free piece of software that can read Word documents and can be used for real work.
So the nun does all her real work in an Abbey...-word.

The slit experiment? I think th results of that experiment are due to movement of the device used to generate the light. If it isn't at absolute zero, it's moving, just a little. I think this movement is enough to create the same effect as a stream of particles.

Mayny people suggest that viewing pornography or playing violent video games can cause a person to be perverted or violent.
The statistics are there, initiators of school shootings have played violent games, and rapists have often been found to be frquent pornography viewers.
I don't, however think this is cause and effect. People that commit violent acts are attracted to violent media, they're violent, that is what they like. Those who play violent video games or view pronography aren't drawn to murder or rape. While the fact that a rapist is drawn to porn facilitates the statistics conservative politicians wave around, pornography is more of a symptom than a disease, and I could have a sore throat for any number of reasons. (insert your ailment here)

Granted, this is a split keyboard, but there is no joystick! This is innovative because of the way the mouse is mounted under the keyboard. The guy actually claims a petent on it because nothing like this has been done before.

Well, if they planned on using this for mp3 detection they could record their songs with identifying data in the frequencies that mp3 blocks out, and when a data marker is intentionally left in the mp3 spectrum is detected, the watch searches for it's inaudible counterpart. If it is missing, the mp3 may be identified.
I presume they are placing sound-data-tags in their radio content to collect the listner data, so the devices are already configured well enough for this task.
Radio stations that need this are poor.

The radio stations that really need this, the ones that need to come up with data to prove their marketshare to advertisers, won't be able to afford it. Also, why would a station that has money and is doing well in paper surveys want to buy this? What do they gain?
The RIAA is going to use it to keep tabs on how many illegal mp3s we've been listening to. I can't get one, I'd go to jail. Nerds don't do well in prison.

The more deluded the dose, the more effective the drug.
Placebos are the most effective drugs known to man! Ask any homeopathic doctor. Because they contain nothing, they can be used to treat everything!
Could an E-Doctor diagnose me online using this software? He might be able to see that I have Parkinson's disease or Rhumatoid E-Thritis.

This could possibly be like a TiVo for radio.

Maybe it would be a good idea for Microsoft to go back to DOS, crank out DOS 10 (DOX X hehe) and put that on the Xbox.
This way they can blame the *application* creators.
DOS was and is a great strategy.
I see that wager and raise it:

You get tracked because the government knows that if you don't own either a PDA or a nice digital watch, you never leave your home.
Mini PDAs with GPS will be the norm one day, every geek gets tracked.
It might be possible for life to exist without water, given all the hydrocarbons, creatures might exist with highly flammable blood.
Good thing it's cold there.
Or is that how they stay warm?
