  6. Apple patents the arsehole? on Slashback: Humility, Patents. Vapor.com · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    iAnal(tm)? I have just recieved a cease and desist letter from Apple, they have patented the Arsehole (tm) I have not to use mine without paying the appropriate licensing fees, or producing evidence of prior fart.
    At least that's what I think it says, I dont speak leagalese, the lawyer involved is either claiming to have patented the Arsehole(tm) or that he is one.
    And what does iAnal mean is it a new product or a trademark or a leagal disclaimer, or is it meant to silence /. IANALs?
    iAnal(tm) you know it makes sense, to a lawyer!

  10. I HEREBY PATENT on Slashback: Humility, Patents. Vapor.com · · Score: 1, Funny

    The toilet bowl icon, when you dump a file in the bowl, part of the icon will turn brown indicating files waiting to be flushed. Permanently deleting files will be accompanied by a flushing sound.
    In Scottish slang the toilet is also known as the kludgie, therefore a wholly appropriate place for files or progs considered a kludge!

  20. Re:Chirality on Murchison Meteorite Still Contentious · · Score: 1

    Hi there despite my drunken attempts to find the (Asimov) article in question, i can't at this moment do so. My initial disagreement with his post was the bald assertion that
    "In many cases, the levorotary forms are lower energy structures and would be favored during synthesis."
    is just WRONG! . Certainly in the context of "life as we know it" once a give stereochemistry becomes established it will remain so, If I remember the article or book correctly It attemted to tie in the recently discovered fact(at that time)that the weak force had a chirality ("is god left handed" is a remembered headline).
    It is all very well to say "But perhaps what the writer meant to say is that," I was mererly disagreeing with what he had actually said, albeit using bad language and negativity.

  21. Re:Chirality on Murchison Meteorite Still Contentious · · Score: 1

    I am always glad to learn, please cite a reference that supports the disputed phrase "In many cases, the levorotary forms are lower energy structures " and I will gladly change my world view.

  22. TALK SHITE GET - on Murchison Meteorite Still Contentious · · Score: 1

    well he claims to have a Phd in the life sciences but unthinkingly types shite like this. no-one seems to have pointed out yet that varying isotope ratios are the consequence of living at the bottom of an atmosphere, ie transmutation from c12 to c14 occurs way up there in the sky as a result of high energy radiation. pardon my spelling but I am completely out of it on beer and wine.

  23. Re:Chirality on Murchison Meteorite Still Contentious · · Score: 1

    In many cases, the levorotary forms are lower energy structures and would be favored during synthesis.

    That is a load of shite, to use the Scottish venacular.

    The fact that many L based systems are almost exclusively so is dependant upon the larger structures that are based upon amino acids and other small molecules.

    Which are themselves chiral, you seem to be arguing against yourself here. Imagine the VHS Betamax wars without any diference between formats other than a left right chirality, any format that for any reason gets ahead, stays ahead and swamps the other. Isacc Asimov a biochemist of some fame (you might know him as a sf author)wrote a short article on this topic, which showed that once one form got ahead a runaway process ensued which meant it stayed ahead and swamped the other type.
