If people were influenced by videogames, how come people playing Pacman in the 70ies didn't go around eating small round pills finding themselves lost in mazes in psychedelic colors?
I'll give 1 oz of free swedish air to the one who tells me the origin of that joke.
"When MindArk a few weeks ago proclaimed Project Entropia 3D universe open for anyone to enter from their computer, the Project Entropia site immediately became the world's largest site on the Internet even beating Yahoo, MSN, etc."
Shielding you car seems out of the question since that would block out the incoming transmission, however, maybe you could install some kind of jamming device that transmtits a fake signal to confuse the billboard?
Yes, it is a remarkable piece of work. I can honestly say watching it changed my life. Or atleast, my way of living. I have a problem though, I don't know who I should say I quote - Morgan Freeman, his character or Stephen King?
"The screens can only be seen in 3-D from certain angles and distances, however, and a "sweet spot indicator" -- a small bar at the lower end of the screen -- appears solid black when the viewer is at an optimum position for 3- D."
Well that's not very useful since I usually headbang to my fragging.
Umm.. I'm not entirely convinced the target audience for this phone is business-people. It seems more like a fun-phone to me. And I don't know where you live, but here in sweden there's no such thing as a revenue generating group, *everybody* has a cellphone.
That can't be true. The two probabilities(it happening an it not happening) split the 100%. The thing is, it's *not* happening all the time. The probability of it diverging from that is very small I guess, but that's not important: we have to assume time travel is possible for the sake of argument. So, however great the probability of it not happening, it's going to get divided by infinity, and 1 - x/infinity -> 1.
Well, I agree. You are welcome to point that out to my prison [www.luth.se]. But I realize now I formulated it wrong. The possibility of it happening is endlessly close to 1(or 100%) and therefore a fact.
If it was possible to travel back in time, wouldn't we have encountered something from the future? I mean, eternety lies ahead, and *somebody* would've come to this exact place at this exact time sometime during eternity. I mean, the possibility of it happening is endless and therefore a fact.
Slashdot Mirror
What is with the sudden onslaught of superhero movies?
Weee!
On a totally unrelated note, a nerd reading slashdot in sweden overdosed on coffee today.
has nothing to do with little critters running in wheels with generators, does it?
Damn.. there goes my midterm paper...
I'm sure glad there isn't a "really boring" mod option!
I am a BANANA!
What I wanna know is if it can make a pangalactic gargleblaster.

In the screenshot below there is an insurance company in the background.

I saw an Ent! Well, the leg of an Ent anyway.
Oh, right, that was two frelling MONTHS ago!
So it's a frelling acronym now, huh? If you people are gonna keep this pace up, RTFA may actually get in handy some day!

I can imagine counting slowly backwards from 10 and just before I doze off hearing: "I'm sorry dave, I'm afraid I cannot do that."
I thought it said "New Anti-Circumcision Rulemaking"!
I guress that's what happens when you read slashdot before you've had your first cup o coffe in the morning.
Note to self: Keep coffe machine by the bed.

Because there would be infinately many time travellers atleast some of them would've been noticed.
I guess that's true. I had to assume the universe will exist for eternity(in one form or another). As much for my argument as my sanity. :)

for the pr0n industry! Dress it in high-heels (it could handle uneven sufaces, right?) and a corset and you have the gadget-lovers dream partner!
"Jack of All tracks"?
Something about a railroad or what?
