Penny Arcade guys come up with some funny shit. Us gamers are united, even if we don't talk directly to each other... We all got the same clue about games. The one most corporations is missing.
Monopolistic vorticies are ideas that when turned on, cause people to need your product in such a way that everyone needs it, and at the same time competitors can not be born.
This particular idea was infared scheduling.
You know how you have headaches scheduling?
Well simply enter in your free time, with a weight, and beam all the PDAs data between each other, and you have a few options for meeting times.
It saves time scheduling, but removes the "I'm more important than you factor", unless you want to add it in, or let the 'important guy' dictate which of the proposed times to use.
Everyone will need a PDA so meetings go faster. People on the road will need this PDA, like a nerd needs magic cards. Schedule a buisness meeting in 10 seconds on a conferance trip? Invaluable. If you don't have a PDA, you're gonna likely have the meeting time dictated to you, and not look cool.
Over 50% of the people in the United States do not unwanted solicitation to private communication. Yet the laws don't change to reflect the people's desires. Go democracy.

Don't use my phone, email, pager, mail, or any personal communications methods to try and sell me something without my prior consent.
Yah, you start with a 3d engine, give it some physics rules, and you can make several different types of games using it.
What else is great is that you can use it as a mathmatical space for generic modeling systems... As the technology increases, the modeling potential does too. Artificial intelligence is one technology that requires a 3d imagination space. Thats why I'm doing some independent video game programming at the moment. It sucks dedicating an unpaid year or two of your life after college, and I only have 100 to 1 odds of beating the corporation... But my alternative is sleeping and laying around the house. Thank you Bush for doing nothing about the economy.
You guys arguing over small values like 128k. Its like watching people fight over bread crums. You need 640k or you're wasting your time, and embarassing yourself. Even Bill Gates is quoting as saying, 640k is pretty much what everyone needs.

I just graduated carnegie mellon for computer science. I haven't even seen an interview.
Its the user's fault because he wants a flashy product?
I thought it was the coders fault for putting backdoors in.
Next target, libraries.
The interview skit rules :)
Almost as much as the dad who is a theatrical performer talking down on his kid for being a coal miner.

Computers are confusing to some people. Anything people don't understand can be used for terrorism.
Old people gamble in Vegas and Atlantic City.
The owners buy drugs from foreign cartels.
And everyone knows drugs support terrorism.
This means old people support terrorism.
Simpsons owns.

Basically it combines their jetpack with a motorcyle.
All you do is picture the jetpack's turbines as the motorcyle wheel.
Rotate the seat 90 degrees.
Then you have a motorcyle/jetpack. Guaranteed these will be made some day.
Crap. I need to make sure I don't get caught next go around.

Once nanotech gets movin, there will be people who made their fortunes in it. Any change like that is fundamental and people oppose it.
But of course it poses a health risk. DUH. Most any technology capable of curing diseases could more easily applied to destruction.
It seems like no independent developer has made a successful game since the late 80's.
How can you make a law when you don't understand it?
Arresting a professor for furthering a field is the same as saying,"Lawmakers are waaaay more intelligent than college professors."
Is there a .exe for Linux or Windows?
.exe and then I can flash roms over?

Instead of wasting all that energy as a pump, you should try and recapture it as electricity like they're doing on car's braking systems.
I get 640k on my cable modem for under 50$ a month.
But wait this new technology is 1/5th as slow, and a data transfer cap? Where do I sign up?
I wonder if genes regulating one attribute in a person also regulate a second attribute.
Just write a note on the side, I made no money.
I did that for 5 years and it was cool.

Choose
Excellent.
Much like the appeal of Seti at home was searching for AI... People now have a choice which distributed net they want to support.
Its a system, similar to voting, that will have every distributed net in the future trying to please.
I forsee distributed nets of the future attempting to produce results, in order to keep people interested and donating their computer cycles.
Its an interesting system, that works a bit like deomocracy.
