    I have to contribute with the mundane discoveries and designs I do in my arena of medical product design, and they too will live on beyond me. Hopefully the patients do, too.

    Good question. I personally find the whole concept hard to digest.

    That is a true testament to anyone who doubts what this company is capable of. Not trying to troll here: It could also be indicative of what the fanbois are capable of.

    I've created an intense anti-matter beam so powerful that it could evaporate half of New New York if it was accidentally activated. So just remember not to press this big red button! Peter North? Is that you?

    Can you tell me where you live and what time you typically empty your bowels? I'll be fishing through the sewers apartment connects to during those times for $15,000. I figure most people go once a day, so that's a pretty good wage for wading through shit. My god. Talk about laundering money....
  8. Re:You no longer consume mass media? on 'I Was a Hacker for the MPAA' · · Score: 2, Funny

    .... and then, like a total fuckwit, I went ahead and read the article, just to make sure I wasn't being a total ass and might have to retract the parent post. Really, it's just good news all around:

          (1) No, I don't have to retract the parent post;
          (2) I have a quick-heat soldering iron with which to stab out my eyes.

                        Later!

    Here's a good article [pcmag.com] about it by /.'s favorite John Dvorak. Well, that statement right there is about equivalent to a divide-by-zero. I'll pass.

    Remember, it's coherence that lets light reflect off of a surface and lets me see it. No. No it's not. If light were monochromatic, you might (I stress *might*) have a point. But sunlight (e.g.) isn't, and you don't.

    Even when Wiley made no errors, he was cheated. How the hell did the Roadrunner go through those paint-on train-tunnels?!?

    If it's not in the Constitution, the federal government's not allowed to do it, fancy that. It's been a long time since I studied the Constitution of the United States, but I do NOT read the 10th Amendment as saying that.

  22. Re:Not entirely new. See: ergotism on Scientists Deliver 'God' Via A Helmet · · Score: 1

    Interesting, thank you. You're at least half right. But it is said that the Latin words are thought to derive from the hypothetical Indo-European root *smei-, "to laugh", "to smile".

  23. Re:Not entirely new. See: ergotism on Scientists Deliver 'God' Via A Helmet · · Score: 1

    Briefly: Is it still a miracle if it only happened in someone's drug-addled brain? My dad is fond of pointing out that "miracle" originally meant "something that makes you smile". In that case, Family Guy is quite the miraculous phenomenon. Interesting that the word got co-opted, and then pwned, by the religious.
  24. Re:PARENT IS DEAD ON!!! on Most Users Think They Have AntiVirus Protection, While Only Half Do · · Score: 3, Informative

    Unfortunately, none of the free ones are more then marginally useful in unattended installations; you have to click on stuff to get the new version, which my grandmother won't do. It's just as stupid as the pandemic itself. Not sure if you mean that you have to click on stuff to get the entirely new antivirus engine, or just the definitions. If it's the latter, Avast! is a free one which updates automatically, at least once a day. No clicky, no worries. You can even remove the notifications that it's been updated, if grandma can't handle those.
