I can't wait till they can clone meat without that unnecessary nervous system, what will those vegans say then?
Sweet, now we can grow people without brains and bring back cannibalism. (The long pig is quite tasty.) Even better, if you need cheap labor you can leave the brain stem and nerves and implant a remote control system.
The less competent see fewer nuances and therefore make more straight forward assertions, they qualify their position less, therefore it looks clearer to an uninformed observer.
So... let's say that I want to patronize his obviously grossly illegal service. How do you consummate a transaction like this? Cash in a Fedex envelope? Sent to whom? A P.O. box?
Some people launder money through online poker games. Invite your buyer to a game and have them "lose" some money to you. Internet gambling companies are usually based in offshore banking havens, making it difficult for the authorities to scrutinize your transaction. (I'd never do this myself, of course.)
I usually avoid the environmental discussions on Slashdot for obvious reasons, but I had to jump in this time. It bothers me that ignorance is becoming an accepted point of view.
Look at the midwest here during 1850's. MUCH more desertlike and much less water. And the earth took that area FROM less livable to more livable.
Sure it was. (I guess the Great Lakes don't qualify as "water.") Do you have any evidence to back up this assertion? Besides, didn't you say in another post that we only have 80 years of temperature data?
The natural forces are more destructive than most things we can make.
This is precisely why we need to be careful what we do to the climate.
The only thing more destructive than most of those are nuclear warheads.. And even 50 years cures most of those problems. Look at Bikini atoll.
The Bikinians are still trying to get the money to clean up their atoll. Like the carbon we're spewing into the atmosphere, the radioactive contamination didn't just go away.
The sahara was a wonderful wilderness. Now its sand. And LOTS of it. The "americans" sure as hell didnt do it. Nature CHANGES weather patters naturally. Whether it be good or bad for us, I dont know.
Nice logical fallacy. Past changes occurred independently of human activities; therefore nothing we do now will affect the climate.
Slashdot Mirror
Yes, but who do they call for tech support?
Crysis on a 486.
Halliburton also has a new web 2.0 site. It helps governments find military contractors to deal with their "acute PR issues."
This is a multithreaded comment, right?
Unfortunately no one is interested in my machine that produces infinite dirty energy. :(
Well, actually...

You sound pretty certain about that.
But then again, I use linux. Encryption is actually pretty simple under it for people who actually know how to admin a Linux system.
Likewise, constructing plasma weapons is actually pretty simple for people who actually know how to build compact fusion reactors.
Thank god.
What's your IP address?
Judging from the article title, I think they're using C++. (Apparently they don't have the popcorn-popper themselves but they know how to find it.)
When did George Bush start posting to Slashdot?

Interesting.
Things will really get interesting when spyware starts including deletion defenses and countermeasures.
cker break into my system and hit the submit button for me.
Someone needs to start a "shut down by China" list so the rest of us can find the good stuff.
Exactly. The astronauts would need to fatten up on salmon and berries before takeoff.

VOLCANOES (1 spew=100 years of 'pollutants)
Wrong. Volcanoes contribute an insignificant amount of carbon dioxide compared to human activities.

The human race wont die out, but most will. Darn.
The extent of your compassion is quite touching. I'd rather avoid fighting an endless global war over dwindling resources if possible.
Yep, that's definitely Bush's strong point.
There's this Chinese restaurant down the street from my house that should patent the smell of its dumpster for possible future military applications.
Their regular products are basically a scam too. The gross margin on a can of flavored sugar water is enormous.
Hopefully this thread will be blocked by the filters.
These days it's tough to tell the difference.
