I'm just worried that someone with a frikkin' moon-based "laser" will be able to take out their facility. does alan parsons have anything to do with this?
I was thinking the same thing...how often does an organization purposely market something to fail in an effort to crush 'lesser' competitors? Does anyone have examples?
Tell the best d00d to bring his laptop, we're gonna have wireless LAN gaming at the reception!
funny thing about this - it does happen. a former friend had setup a sega genesis in another room at his reception for kids. the groom and bestman spent most of the reception playing altered beast. which explains why that marriage didn't last.
christ, now you're asking me to remember things.:)
Putting it simply (i.e. the way I understand things best), physiological addiction occurs in your body on a chemical level, and creates an environment for physical withdrawl symptoms - meaning that if I were to cut off caffeine (to stay in the slashdot world), which interacts at a neurochemical level (competes with adenine for receptor sites on neurons), you will feel more tired (in this case, adenine is allowed to flood its receptor sites, which naturally causes drowsiness).
Psychological addiction, on the other hand, has no specific physiological anologue. Watching TV, shopping, reading Slashdot too much, can all be considered psychological addictions if taken too far. You don't need to watch Star Wars a billion times because your body will fail if you don't, but for some reason - perhaps a need to escape into fantasy you feel compelled to watch it. It gives you a sense of happiness, or fulfills some need that transcends the physical.
Hopefully this makes sense (hopefully I remembered things correctly). It bears mentioning that while psychological addiction can follow physiological addiction, it generally doesn't work the other way around.
i recommend a quick nap between about 9 and 11 in the morning. I did that for a few weeks on end without any appreciable loss of cognitive abilities. I was able to stay awake from 10 the previous morning until 2 or so the next 'night' if i did that.
You're forgetting that this is just twitty Michael inserting his meaningless rhetoric. I really can't stand that guy. Is there a 'no stories posted by michael' filter (I'm too lazy to look myself)
We'll give you a call if we need anyone to waive a white flag for us...hmm, maybe we can use you guys as bait. Of course, that would assume that you had any strategic value whatsoever. But everyone that matters knows that Europe has marginal value at best.
Cheerfully yours,

Let's not forget that four out of five Europeans will surrender when faced with a simple decision. But I'm an obnoxious American, and all my people have done is save Europe from itself once or twice, so what the hell do I know?
I took a look at that- thought it was a bit over the top. But then again, I'm just bitter that my window office on the 21st floor of two was taken away from me a few days before I moved into it. And the fact that a bunch of people died and I couldn't do anything about it. But now I'm saying too much.
visit New York and hack it to put up a picture of the WTC towers overtop of whatever sawed-off 20-storey mundane blocks they try to "replace" them with.)
Slashdot Mirror
Worth a read if you aren't doing anything else for a long time and don't have anything better kicking around.
so it's something to do at work?
Because they fit together like two sides of the same coin -- or better yet, like Walther Matthau and Jack Lemmon.

could this be why worldcom has collapsed? i knew it! the hackers did it! d4mn y0u, d4mn y0u 4ll t0 h311!
Keep in mind that there are two kinds of addiction- physiological, which this probably won't be, and psychological, which this definitely could be.
