    Its not funny its true. A person costs about $150 on the human trafficing market. Building a robot as good as a person will take you billion of dollars and years and years and then each one will cost you a shocking amount of money. People are good at doing shit.

    NO NO NO!!!

    Be an election observer of both the machines and the servers. We need a pair of nerd boots of both republican and democrat persuasion at each tally server to ensure that no one can sit down and alter the unencrypted count files. This is the most important nerd activity you do. At the last election all my lawyer friends were working as observers but they were looking for something completely different than the real vote rigging activities.

    Yes in fact I played Quake I last night. I dug it out of the basement so I could run it on my new Nokia e71. I love it but it is not a story driven game. You run around a castle blowing up ogres and zombies and giant electro-charged bird monsters. I pimp slaps almost every FPS game I've played since then and you can't even mouse look in two axis at the same time.

    Back to the GP the "command view" was created for Natural Selection which ran on the Half Life engine which is a fork of the Quake 2 engine. Natural Selection is the greatest FPS game ever made in my opinion mostly because it is the best Aliens game ever made.

  14. Re:Great... on Nokia Unveils "World's Thinnest" QWERTY Smartphone · · Score: 2, Informative

    It is simple. US carriers have entered into a devils bargain with the subsidized phones for contracts. The carriers demand control over their networks and more importantly will only carry phones that are bad enough that people will be desperate to upgrade them 2 years later. This has created a cadre of American mobile users who are more interested in initial capital cost rather than technical quality and low price service for the duration. Also because the 4 carriers (read not a free market) are terrified of free WiFi combined with VoIP. This means they will not carry phones that will support WiFi and VoIP. Iphone you think, um well they have locked down a BSD based phone so it cannot multitask for the simple reason they do not want a VoIP app resident in memory. In fact Skype has refused to release mobile versions because they "cannot guarantee quality of service over mobile networks." in a world with WiFi enabled phones this is a lie has illustrated by Fring et al.

    This comes to the basic fact that WiFi if implemented freely and openly (let alone WiMax) could be the end of mobile phone service for most metropolitan users. Imagine a world without channels in the spectrum just one open cloud from top to bottom, imagine multi-spectrum chipsets and antennas that could be peer to peer nodes relaying from phone to tower etc until it reaches the nearest fiber. Imagine each peer buying an selling service as needed from any other node on the network, each peer interaction based on a system of free market a micro payments for the bridging service. Once again oligopoly cripples technology for pricing.

    The whole e-series is basically identical except for form factor. Like a folding QWERTY? E70. Like a full keybaord E90, E61, E62, E61i, E71. Like a Slider. E65. The E90 is awesome but beefy. You can pick em up used for around $600 USD in the Gulf after people buy them becasue they are the most expensive and return them becasue they don't need a laptop to call their friends.

    I have been using the e61 for some time and it is fantastic. Wifi in a phone more than a year before the iPhone. The only thing it lacks is a tab key and it misses it badly. I just went phough phone buying hell for my father and got him a Centro (mostly becasue he is a technophobe who has had a palm, handspring, or treo for over ten years. ) I have been using the iPhone and a V3xx for the summer and all of them basically suck cock compaired to the e-series. Touch screen is cool but add no functionality for me and somewhat diminished typing experience. Oh had why the fuck doesn't the keyboard go to landscape in half the iPhone apps? Anyway none of you chumps will ever see this phone anyway becasue the US mobile phone companies are a ass licking oligarchy based on reduced function in returned for increased prices.

    Ok, for the record crude is in fact solar energy. The only question is what is the most efficent way to capture that energy. Solar cells hell no. Simple biological organisms? Hell yes,

    This is why I think algae growing on sewage run through Conagra/Changing World Technology's TDP is going to be the best solution. Take a waste stream, add a primary producer, and then add sunlight. You have just added a great deal of energy to something that would be cost effective as is as a seed for the TDP process. Then convert anything in the goo or left over shit into short carbon chains at 85% efficacy. No worries if you pollute the algae with a different strain because it is just going to be broken down into short carbons chains anyway. Then you can burn the output on site in a high efficiency generator and run the Co2 exhaust through the algae for recapture. No transport costs to speak of for electrons.
