I had a gift subscription to T3*. The damn company decided mid 3rd issue that the idea wasn't working and sent me a substitute subscription to Business 2.0. I canceled my order but they still deliver it. Bummer.
*The T3 magazine, for a while, put hot looking scantily clad women in the same frame as tech-toys. The content sucked, but it was a nice stroke book idea, but maybe ahead of its time.

Bullshit bullshit. It's a 3d chatroom with a store not a gateway. The amount of corporate scripture these guys put out makes me want to hurl. The business plan blows, you can mod me down if you want to, but I can't get excited about a virtual store in my 3d chat room. I won't be a customer. Now combine I.M.ing, file sharing, web-caming, internet radio, and a shared input space like I've heard three degrees is going to do, and I might get excited. Might.
I have often taken a scene out of a rented movie for educational purposes. Re-encoded that scene into divx movie clips of interest. And used them as source materials for topics of discussion. Used the matrix "battery" scene in philosophy for several reasons. Used the "Strange Days" reply scenes in censorship/reality conversations. Technically I am circumventing copyright protection, re-encoding, and electronically distributing these clips. I see that it is no different than when I used to watch the clip in class with borrowed VCR's and a rental tape. Except now the Research questions and materials I ask can be for homework.
The end results are the same. Law, or no law, it's not going to stop this educator.
Think about the current state of technology. Nanotech is sort of biotech (think flagella motors), material science's self assembling structures are really bio-tech. Eventually all companies in the manufacturing category will be biotech companies.
When your batteries are bio/nano tech based, your screen is organic, and your RAM is nano/chemo-electric, you might have to worry about a whole different brand of viruses than you're currently used to.

it would seem to me that copanies whos software checks in with servers (much like the constant updating of firewall software or even MS OSes) could easily track when software has been propogated throught the Napsterization model. When someone downloads the latest update 100 times you can figure that it has been comprimized.
Can someone with more knowledge on the subject please ream my argument. I, unlike some slashdoters, enjoy intelectual discourse.
It's one thing to dupe your parents, but if this chick thinks we are going to believe shes not a stoner, she must be on dope. Just check out the photo. http://primeous.homestead.com/files/bondgirl2.jpg
Why would we want to destroy this perfectly good rock? Okay, so it might end life in 1 of 7 continents... but if we could pull it into orbit using some nukes, some rockets, or maybe a few tricked out solar sails + 30 years, we would have a great resource. Talk about space stations, hotels and space commerce, just to be able to use matter in space and not have to pay to get it up there would be worth it!
I read that this rock is mostly just that, rock. Still... there must be some metal in there. There should be some other uses that you guys could think of right?
Delta flight 1024 leaving NY, NY for Lunar base Echo via "The Rock" is now boarding.

"Since the creation of the original Tetris game on an Electronica 60, there have been dozens of different incarnations of Tetris.." Remember Sextris? You had naked people making shapes with their appendages, if 2 "blocks" are positioned in a way to "exchange fluids" then they anhilated each other and you were rewarded with an orgasmic sound. 'Ohhhh!"
It was all the rage in my freshman dorm... Come to think of it, everything sex related was all the rage in my freshman dorm. Other than sports and school work, Beantown schools are basicly $35,000 a year whore-houses with great internet access. Maybe we should all go back to school.
The game is called hyperbowl (http://www.hyperbowl.com) and the only place you can play that in Boston is at Jillians (http://www.jilliansboston.com/). Jillians is huge! The cocktail waitresses are so freakin hot, the BU-UMASS-Northeastern-Harvard-MIT chicks are so freaky freakin hot. And after you break the ice with a video game, you take the party upstairs play some pool, get hammered, and then go down to the basement and dance at Atlas.
I work right across the street at the public art high school and don't get me started on young hotties, cause I could go on all day.
In response to armour going offline. It helps to think back to the 80's and Knight Rider.
I think everyone can except that in the future armour coud be polarized and kept together in a quasi-magnetic kinda way right?
Well...If you remember the golieth episodes (the Mac Truck that kicked KITTS ass)they said that KITTS armour used electricity to keep it molecularly bonded together. While that is lame as a tachyon beam, it is an explination.

the question is how much paprer would that ipod cost me?
I once went to a festival of geekdom that lasted 4 years. We sat around and did nothing but play games, code, and blow shit up.
I miss college.
There is only one cheat. And he lives with strongbad. The Cheat!

I am okay with DRM as long as I know who holds the keys. With todays Homeland security, I am not sure that I am the only key holder.
Voice over IP, over Wifi. There are some companies acctually planning this for mobile phones. Is anyone aware of this?
What does this mean for the future of telephone companies? When can I call from Boston to london at less than $1.50 per min?
Only a slashdot visiting parent would make a post like this. Toddlers and web browsers. It is a special time in a child life.
Now if anyone has any idea how I can get my bosses kid to stop touching the tux sticker on my boxen...
Nothing beats the web gestures of opera. It has not only made me a faster researcher, it has improved my social life.
The price is wrong, bitch!
Was this woman real old? Did she put it in with cookies, or brownies? What was in those brownies? And do you think she has anymore?
Man the IMF is always acting like a bunch of meanies. Ethan Hunt can't even get his requested vacation time.
Worms suck.
Well, at least the media is coveing a science story about faces, not just the same old, who is going down on who stories.
Come to think of it, I could use some face time, in my lap tht is.
