look at how our brain works, a bunch of dumb nerves linked together are able to survive and convince clumps of other dumb nerves that they are smart, now think of more advanced nerves operating in larger groups and using more than 10% of thier companions, is it really that far off?
..isn't it going to change based on people's eyes..i meen if you are trying to find what is visiblly different i can see the diff of a pixel that is (0,0,254) in a screen filled with (0,0,253) and (0,0,255), but there are no doubt people that could easily miss half the screen being (0,0,254) and (0,0,255)..
9 months and only 100 spam emails?
thats amazing..lol..thats about 11 peices of spam a month, in other words about 1 spam email every 3 days..i average around 20 per day..thier study must be wrong:)
they are unable to be made unless it uses something like 802.11 to connect only to local locations which have farther reaching connections, as far as the net is concerned you are talking about making an internet inside the internet, and many of them if they are used by different apps, this cannot be done without either a) a server that has the names of all the peers that a peer will look at and pick the ones that have the least connections to connect to or b) having the connections fixed to eachother like the actualy internet and never have too many go down(though as soon as you have some that are fixed they can be taken down easily) or c) have the peers randomly scan ip addresses until they find 1 that is using the client then have it get a list of the 20 that have the least connections, then have it disconnect and connect to those 20; no matter what you do it is not likly that either a user would wait long enough to find the network, or that if the network is fixed that a user would be able to connect to a server at all after a little while, because just like napster's servers, though they did not contain the actual files, they would be taken down in a fairly short time..
moron..that is harming someone, freedom of speach exists as long as no harm is done, and instructions on how to make/do anything are not harmfull, only the people that do it are.
your a moron, they are an evil monopoly but thier code dosn't suck, if as many people used linux it would not be nearly as secure, the only reason it is is that the script kiddies can't understand it so they use windows..if linux were more user-friendly(which everyone wants that way more people will use it) then it would be just as if not more insecure than windows, all the stupid things they do have a purpose..
i have never seen a tech book i like, the only ones i have are christmas/birthday presents that i have read a little of and tossed aside, i prefer tutorials and things on the web, i don't know why but i can read things faster on the computer, and the fact that it is on the computer prevents me from switching my glance from a book and a screen over and over(once my eyes adjust to the refreshrate of the screen it gives me a headache to look at things that don't have it then look back over and over again). as for ebooks, i have never touched one and never will, they just don't seem like anything that you could read from, they don't have all the tools i have on the desktop of my screen so you can't use them like a computer, and they don't have pages--which just defies the whole idea of it being a book as far as i am concerend, they are all either to thin or thick for thier weight and they don't bend in your hands.
btw as for the rest of the 'coders' i met that were into open-source they either tended to be moronic newbies or a combination of moronic newbies + code theives or morons that want you to do code under some bs license they made up that makes the code thier property to do with as they wish after you are done with it..i have now taken the 5 people i did find(and they had the same experiances(at least the four that went looking for projects to work on themselves)) and started a company that only does closed source work, in the end i have come to the conclusion that around 99% or open-source coders are newbie code thieves(an i know i will get flammed like hell by the 1% that are good or the 99% that think they are, or both)
of the hundreds of open-source coders i have met online i have only found 5 that are actually usfull in large projects, i beleive this servey is as false as the microsoft/yahoo one awhile back.
since when is a super-nova being discovered news on/....it seems kinda small to be here, i meen there is nothing special that seperates it from others...
...if you were to destroy all the churches and ban all forms of religion wouldn't you be eliminating just about every reason people goto war and why science laggs so far behind...i meen what good does wasting your life worshiping something that dosn't exist do when you could be using it to help our society grow?

these people are seriously slacking off..lol..blending dosn't stop evolution of a species, it just slows it down while making sure there is only one version in the end, a change towards mediocraty is still a change...
for once the moderators are doing thier jobs(i know this is offtopic), the morons are getting marked trollls and the good posts are getting marked informitive or intresting, we finally have some republican moderators:)
lmao..u know nothing about fusion do you?
the main reactants are tritium and deterium(spelling?), deterium is not radioactive, and tritium is only slightly, they combine to produce helium and hydrogen, and a few nuetrons(spelling?), if it got out of control it would simpy die off because it would not have enough fule, not to mention the freezeing temp(compared to plasma) of room tempature that after it might destroy it's magnetic confinment would also take out it's source of heat, and would fizzle out within seconds..would cause damage to the immediate maybee 20 feet, but beond that the only damage would be rebuilding, and maybee a power spike...
well..um..duh..lol, there was an article on/. less than a month ago about cellular aging being the byproduct of some cancer-preventing hormone in the body, the cultures would be at least partially cancerous but would live until all of them turned cancerous or the cancerous ones suffocatted the living ones..

i was going to vote 4 that option, but i felt embarresed sitting in my room alone just reading it:)
you definitly do not work 4 a phone company..how the hell do you think they put all the incomming/outgoing calls on your bill?
anything that any other language can do, you can do in c/c++, most all are written in it anyway

i think this is bogus..anyone else?
love how you tossed in e=mc^2 to make yourself look like you know more than what you typed in that post, eve nthough it was completly irrelevant..
it is the 80iq people like you that piss me off the most, why was this rated at a 4 and not a -1 troll?
