    If so I didn't see it there. Why not just post the cease and desist?

    all Nintendo should care about us moving product, controlling distribution is farcical.

  9. Re:Which and where? on Universal Alphanumeric Postal Code Proposed · · Score: 1

    In three years, your neighbour might get your mail if you are say an ant. A few inches a year isn't that much over 3. In 10 years, maybe...

  10. Re:Not quite a true victory in munich on Slashback: Rendering, Munich, Clones · · Score: 1

    I don't know about over there, but cities are corporations in Canada. Speaking to you from within the Corporation of the City of London.

  11. Re:$200 George W Bush Bill on Counterfeiting With High Resolution Inkjets · · Score: 1

    I am in Canada, and if you tried to give a $50 or a $100 bill for a candy bar you probably would have been told to bugger off. It is real cheaky to try something like that.

  12. Re:1000 meters^2? on Australian Computer Museum Looking For Space · · Score: 4, Informative

    Otherwise known as approximately 31.6 metres by 31.6 metres. Not that much.

    Is DetrimentalFiend correct when he says that only parts of doom3 may be dx9? The rest would in fact be openGL correct?

    a google search for int main( String args[] ) brings up som ejava code... Sacrafice his children to Molech for his sins!

  16. Re:then again... on SBC Getting Aggressive With Frames Patent · · Score: 1

    By that definition it sounds quite like the way pico, lynx, pine, and a few other programs work. How would this be any different than say a menu bar, that basically links to content below in a dynamic way.

  17. Re:Patents don't HAVE to be on something possible. on Creating A Global Patent System · · Score: 1

    I was always under the impression that patents were for inventions and not ideas (minus this crap about software patents).

  18. If there was a real bounty... on Will Bounties Cure The Spam Problem? · · Score: 1

    Dead or Alive I think spam would quite possibly be a thing of the past from citizens of the country. It may take a few people to loose their heads under the guilotine, but some iron maidens could be used too.

    but my friend, {solar} eclipses only overtake the sun for a short time, and then fade into the abyss. It is the Forté of the Sun that keeps it going bright. The Java Warriors of Solaris will shine bright again!

  21. Protect your kid now! on Watching Kids Via Mobile Phone · · Score: 1

    Protect them first from themselves: http://www.infernosoft.com/investments/viriguard/i ndex.shtml Viriguard will protect them from themselves! Did you know that all medical conditions come from self abuse? Well, this is the perfect solution that they can't get out of. "Watching Kids Via Mobile Phone" is another good method that we now have available. But for more invasive methods we have conspired with aliens to produce undetectable alien implants for your kids - as a special extra we have the matching parent implant to telepathically sense where your little buggers are and what they are doing.

  22. This means pretty much nothing in my understanding on A Hotter Sun May Be Contributing To Global Warming · · Score: 1

    Note you do not provide any dating data.

    If Michigan was warmer at one time, then it probably was at a different point on the earth. Remember that the continents move around.

    If Michigan had ice, remember that we are in an ice age. Yes, we are in an ice age, just at a low point. Following description was from a discovery channel special (in Canada): About 2 to 3 Million years ago South America and North America connected. This caused the warmer water from the Pacific to not be able to flow into the Atlantic. Thus started the Ice Age.

    As a result of this ice, we are here.

    To put it briefly - North Africa turned into a more open area. You can't just climb up a tree to get away from preditors. So what do you need? Being smarter helps.

    Lets sue their asses, then make it so that we have to pay for the 'service' (i.e. no pay if no want)

  24. Re:Robot Slave on Wired's Wish List For 2013 · · Score: 1

    I must say that I really have a problem everytime somebody mentions a robot slave.

    At first a slave would be said to not be self aware, not smart enough, etc.

    Is that any different than the Romans or the Americans? Both empires at one point in time had slaves and probably said just the same sort of things. Probably related to animals or a savage.

    Robots should be given as much right to choice that we have given certain conditions. A machine that builds cars like we have today would unlikely be given an 'AI', but a robot that cleans your carpet and does your dishes very much could be.

    If you have a large enough slave population, your empire could be over in a few days.
