The best AI I have seen is probably in WC3. However, I feel that in many games, it isn't the AI that is good, but rather that the computer players sort of cheat by having knowledge of everything in their environment; for example, they know (from the beginning) where the bases of other players are, instead of having to search like a human player. This gives them a huge edge - think of it as a human player playing against another with a map-hack, very unfair.
Yo, I'm pretty sure chicks don't dig you because you don't have:
* The extraordinarily detailed answers from people who spend a lot of time thinking about this sort of thing skills
* The retarded answers from people who don't spend a lot of time thinking about this sort of thing skills
* The retarded jokes forthcoming about people's pulsing hot lightsabers skills
* The prospect of spending all day sifting through stuff like this looking for real news skills
* The fact that I'm rather curious about this myself skills IDIOT!
Who wants a lightsaber when you can wield a bowstaff?
Why cut through steel when you can use dynamite? IDIOT!
Seriously, how many of us have seen people jumping out of airplanes? Jumping off cliffs, jumping off roofs.... I can thinkg of hundreds of movies that show the same thing. Is this any different?
Tough teachers stress achievement, the so called tricks they have only prepare you for those same tricks, while, on the contrary, new age teachers stress aptitude, i.e. fluid knowledge aiding in abstract thinking and potential of the student.
This part is a little off topic...
As previously thought, plants/animals/etc were thought to be nonexistant in the deeper regions of the earth. But hydrothermal vents have been prevalently discovered with an abundance of life.
In biology, we see analogy, or the convergence of organism's appendages and structures due to similar environmental pressures. A quick example is the likeness of a sharks fin and a penguins 'fin,' (they are most certainly not homologous structures). With that said, I feel we must employ the so called intelligence of millions of years of evolution.
Already in progress are the development of ships that move in the water like fish, with undulating tails swinging back and forth, a much more efficient model. But what about energy capture?
Now here's where I get on topic.
Are we not exploiting hydrothermal vents that too, at the same time, could be used as energy sources? These so called ships could easily convert the heat energy and last under the water for months upon a time, stopping at checked locations with known thermal vents, recharging through heat generated. Hey, if the organisms can do it, so can the robots!
Here is its SUPERB! Search for 'GOOGLE', vewy vewy fast!
Unsurpisingly, the first result is in what, French? The rest appear as boxes to me. How do I change the language again? Oh wait, I can't.
There are many palm-pilot programs out there. My friend and I had battles, his Palm III vs my Handspring Deluxe. With many you can select brand type or frequecy (whatever it is), or you can cycle through them all. I outranged him by almost 10 feet with my superior IR power. Though the teacher knew we were the nerds, and were immediately condemned by the smirks we held.
If Capslock vanished from the keyboard, I know a good many people (all of them old) that would go insane. Instead of using the shift, to capitalize they press capslock, type the single letter, than take off caps. Its a slow process, but you know old people, set in their ways, never want to change.
Mom, why didn't you just press shift to capitalize that letter?
Why, thats what Caps Lock is for!
The X Prize is based on a contest in the 1920s, which resulted in Charles Lindbergh's non-stop flight across the Atlantic. It set off an aviation boom that yielded multi-engine transports and jets. The X Prize is expected to ignite the same advancements in civilian space flight.
This method of providing a prize for the 'first' to me is also reminiscent of the Wright brothers, though in their case there wasn't any prize, just fame (Which is prize enough I guess), and also the failed DARPA challenge. However, in this case, numerous factors will affect the challenge and set it apart from the former Wright and Lindbergh attempts. First, people are more cautious and therefore less willing to enter the challenge for fear of serious injury; second, this race must be heavily funded which eliminates any attempt by the self-made man; third, not as much fame comes with the win. I feel these human statements to be truths, though if you perceive them as fallacies feel free to object. It probably just won't generate as many 'advancements' as supposed.
It's great to advance space technology, but let's be practical.
I see this watch as an intermediate step in the evolution/'decrease in size' of technology. It is inbetween a watch and a pda screen. In the future, I see tiny watches, but instead of having a large screen, they instead project the image onto a wall, the ground, or any surface, which would in turn eliminate the highly nerdy and conspicuous watch.
Why do they always have to make it so geeky looking? Honestly, if ANYONE were to wear it they would immediately be branded as geek and rendered invisible to women's eyes. Why not sacrifice a few features for a better size, and have it in a nice stainless steel?
Who does get super-user access then, say, in times of emergency, when the virus is maliciously destroying files, or the terrorists are crashing airplanes into buildings? I say give the power to the people! Equality for everyone, turn Red today!
A specter is haunting slashdot...
DVD Studio Pro looks very nice, but aside from it not running on his computer, it's $500...
I am appalled. Where has our resourcefulness gone? Out the window I assume. Whatever happened to Kazaa? WinMX? Gnutella? and my favorite...BitTorrent. Money doesn't seem an issue anymore.

"...using it as a non-polluting fuel or high-explosive..."
Its obvious! A Non-polluting high explosive, duh!
9. If it is explosive, how do we store it safely??
In Nagasaki and Hiroshima.
This front end you speak of is like using Banana Peels to cover up Dog Poop. It still stinks, and now people are more likely to step in it!
AOL? What? Oh you mean the internet.

Sounds to me like a digitician should be a person who does digitation, does typing qualify?
This is probably just another minor planet (asteroid) like the many others in the Kuipier Belt (what pluto was first considered).

Macomb, Kansas. Macomb, Kansas....Reminiscent of Holcomb, Kansas, and the Capote mass murder, will it get the same publicity? We'll see.
I don't know if it applies, but BBC news seems pretty unbiased to me, appreciably moreso than others at least.
Its called 'Pleonasm,' - using more words than are required to express an idea usually redundant, ie "at this moment in time"
