Careful, don't go warning your wireless providers "Cingular, Verizon Wireless, and Sprint-Nextel" Its about time they give up some of their market.
This especially goes for www.rogers.com in Canada. They have a bit of the monopoly of cel phones, cable services, telephone services, internet services. They charge out the ass and find a way to make you pay for everything.
Internet on a cel phone by default is 5 cents per KB for example. And it doesn't get much cheaper than that with Rogers.
A couple months ago, the city of Toronto announced that they would create a new wireless downtown. This had Rogers pointing fingers, challenging the city and scrambling trying to figure out what to do. Somehow they have managed to announce a "wireless downtown" of their own about a month after the city of Toronto announced theirs. I'll bet dollars to doughnuts their version sucks, since they are pulling it out of their ass but they need to find a way to soak up some of the market before it seeps away.

I agree, people seriously need to stop blaming their actions on an OCD. That is the easy way out. Rise above it.
Look how many people are diagnosed with cancer, or learning disorders. The ones who accept it go nowhere, the ones who will not accept it rise above it.
Actually, Ipods have a quirky, finicky user interface with not enough buttons, very similar to their computers and mice.
Creative DID sue apple for copying much of their interface.
I love my creative MP3 player, I can create playlists in any program, drag and drop songs into the folder, use whatever music software I like on any of my friends computers that I like (an ipod would limit me in every one of those areas). VERSATILITY. Its why the Windows OS has the market share for home and buisness computers. And it's why if Apple doesn't grow up,... it won't hold the MP3 Player market for long.
Anyone else remember those few years that Apple computers dominated the home and buisness computer market?
We will always be evolving as long as our environment changes. Common misconceptions of evolution are that evolution is "bettering" us, no we're simply adapting to our environment.
I've always wondered why a planet like Jupiter couldn't harvest life. I mean, why couldn't another type of life with other needs arise. Why couldn't liquid hydrogen, helium or ice be a source of energy for another lifeform. Plants on earth don't need oxygen.
just so you know, the reason why noone is replying is not cause everyone agrees with you or is unsure of whether or not you're right. No. The reason is because it's kind of sad that you see some fake fossils and then suddenly, in your mind, all of this science business is a hoax. All of the fossils that have been presented throughout your life are fake also. HALLA FREAK LUUJAH!!! No, noone is replying because they're kind of finding it hard to believe someone actually feels this way. Whatever helps you sleep at night.
"ever notice how creationists look totally unevolved?"
could be...pretty much all of our measurements are bullshit. its all based off of human perception but human perception is inisgnificant in the grand scheme of things.
If you measure the length of the coastline of great britain. It depends on the length of your ruler. If your ruler is a mile long then it wont go around all the corners if your ruler is a centimeter long it will go around more corners but still not ALL a centimeter does not measure around pebbles. If your ruler truly measures all of the atomic mass of the coastline it is much much longer. It could be infinite. Look at these examples:
it should be legal to do tests on them. bottom line. imagine the gains? we can learn to restore the sick, bring back extinct animals of the world. not to mention learn so much more about ourselves. the more we learn about ourselves the more we know of our moral obligations in this world.
why hold back science? Bush can't stop it, just let it go do its thing.
Bush must have watched the island. This isn't what we want to do. We don't want to create strange creatures to do experiments on. Just lay off. It will happen. Don't let the bible or your parents cloud your mind.
If I have a burned CD of Eminem's latest album and I leave it sitting on a public bench, is that illegal? No. So why would it be illegal for you to have something available online until you have atleast actually shared it?
Actually the dinosaurs didn't evolve to massive sizes either. They just stayed the same size.
I remembered reading the exact opposite of what this story is claiming though. That dinosaurs would sometimes be isolated on a small island and would evolve into SMALLER creatures over time.
That website has so many movie reviews PLANTED byt movie execs etc. This way people reading the review could meta-moderate denouncing a review as SPAM or PLANT.
The only thing I dont like about slashdot is the way the threads are layed out. It should be just like any other bulletin board. Use the STANDARD format.
I'll tell you what they should be doing with space

They should take a whale embryo genetically reengineer it so that sunlight is converted into oxygen. Then do the same thing with a bunch of fish,... then allow the fish and the whales to swim around in outer space.
We as the ONLY eKNOWN LIFE in the universe should try and preserve our own unique brand of life. Not just for the preservation of our species but for LIFE ITSELF.
Does anyone know of a graphical chart of the known evolutionary lineage? I've always wanted a book that linked all the know ancestors of related species together.
Please respond if you know of such a book or website.
Its not BECAUSE of his opinion, its fine to state your opinion. But stating your opinion in a manner that's surely going to garner FLAMING? In a manner that's asking for flames? That's flamebait.
The guy clearly knew he was gonna get flamed for stating it in that manner.
Hes acting as if evolution isn't what most people on this site would believe. But i'll bet you dollars to donuts that in reality he KNOWS what the average slashdotter believes. Therefore he is purposely stating his opinion that will make it flamebait. Dont blame the mod, blame the guy who made the comment with such "confidence".
There's one called ROBOFORM. Im quite sure it has its own self serving implementations in the software. I installed it and it annoyed me to no end until I uninstalled it.
www.roboform.com
but yeah, a free one, that only manages passwords would be quite useful.
The Transformers should definitely be in this list. Even if it was a toy commercial in the form of a cartoon. Transformers was about machines that overthrew their organic masters. Became sentient. Learned to Transform into vehicles. The storyline goes as far back 9 million years where we first see Orion Pax become Optimus Prime.
Come to think of it Robotech should have been in there too.

Just tried it, works great!
Rogers Customers should drop the Rogers HomePhone service. This is FREE!!!

How would a scavenger get to be larger than most predators?
I dunno, the T-rex looks ALL predator to me, It could Grab with its teeth while giving blows with its legs and sharp claws.

I wonder if it is dependant on the size of the island... look at the size of Australia.

Imagine when EVERY COMPANY in the world is paying Google to be listed on GoogleEarth. And paying them to build a model of their company.
They are creating timeless content that grows exponentially with use. Microsoft makes hardware and software that ages.
Mark my words, I do believe Google will dwarf Microsoft someday.

Yeah, these lifeforms in the volcano are quite unlikely to have evolved by themselves out of the primordial soup.

Agreed, i've always thought DS9 was the lamest Star Trek, it was all about the drama. Weak. Not what i'm looking for in a sci-fi show.
