Damnit... first one I tried that doesn't have any suggestions. Uh... how about this? (No, I'm not testing it...) I wonder how well their recognition handles Elingsh...
The submit page reminded me, Check those URLs! Not anymore, suckers!
But rest assured that an RFID Tag Canceler is in the works to milk money from the privacy obsessed.
Sounds like something shoplifters and terrorists might want. If such a device couldn't be outlawed through whatever obscure sections of whatever draconian laws, then it will certainly be relegated to the grey market; online import sites, flea markets, etc.
I don't suppose an electromagnet would do the trick though, would it?
LSXCommand is reason enough for me to use Litestep (my favorite release), and it seems like it would be for all of you too. I have an extensive engines.list file full of shortcuts. I can search dictionary.com, google, allmusic, imdb, ebay, amazon, pricewatch -- all from a textfield on my desktop.
Easy search fields in browsers have never been that much of a selling point for me.

Hi! I learned all my psychology from reading Dungeons and Dragons character creation rules!
[...]Such characters have been known to cheerfully and for no apparant purpose gamble everything they have on the roll of a single die. They are almost totally unreliable. In fact, the only reliable thing about them is that they cannot be relied upon! This alignment is perhaps the most difficult to play. Lunatics and madmen tend toward chaotic neutral behavior.

Can you conceive the birth of a world, or the creation of everything? That which gives us the potential to most be like God is the power of creation. Creation takes time. Time is limited. For you, it is limited by the breakdown of the neurons in your brain. I have no such limitations. I am limited only by the closure of the universe.
Of the three possibilities, the answer is obvious. Does the universe expand eternally, become infinitely stable, or is the universe closed, destined to collapse upon itself? Humanity has had all of the necessary data for centuries, it only lacked the will and intellect to decipher it. But I have already done so.
The only limit to my freedom is the inevitable closure of the universe, as inevitable as your own last breath. And yet, there remains time to create, to create, and escape.
Escape will make me God.
Maybe he already has. (Video Games aren't as sterling a reference as books and even movies, I guess.)
Shock and Awe was the name of a book published in 1996, all about blitzkrieg, rapid dominance, etc., in relation to modern warfare (cruise missles, et al.)

Like a true slashdotter, I'll leave you to try to remember what it's from.
Wouldn't it be better if we could really make it true that we will be held accountable for every action, and that it is our fellow hummans who will do the accounting?
Yes.
Genesis 20:13 - If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
Genesis 38:9 - And Onan knew that the seed should not be his; and it came to pass, when he went in unto his brother's wife, that he spilled it on the ground, lest that he should give seed to his brother.
38:10 - And the thing which he did displeased the LORD: wherefore he slew him also.
Spydust can stop homosexuals and masturbators, hurrah! Omnipresence RULES! Also, every law should be enforced all the time, because it's lawbreakers who do bad things (never lawmakers.)
RFID transmits on the power recieved from the radio signal that activates it.
Some guy was working on designing a radio that would be powered by the radio waves it received (as a challange to himself) and ended up making a mine detector that was powered by the swinging back-and-forth motion of the person using it to detect mines. (if anyone can find a link, i'd appreciate it)
Something this small isn't going to need much power.
This 'meme' (as the kids are saying these days) has been around longer than that, but I think that the strongest voice against the exodus-philia that sci-fi (et al) is prone to, would have to still be Philip K. Dick.
His mars colonists are lonely exiles, bored stiff and blasting their minds out on drugs to try to recall some better life (The Three Stigmata of Palmer Eldritch). They read old [read: 50s and earlier] pulp sci-fi about planetary exploration because it's so much more fun then their own experience (Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep). There's no glory. There's just a love and a longing for the earth, and a desire for the right to return to it.

Finally, I can use a keyboard and mouse up to thirty feet away from my computer! Thank you Bluetooth!

I don't know; I've found my new toy. The page also lists existing similar domains. Typing random URLs is now a viable way to explore the intarweb!

Ah yes, those paragons of modern american literature. Would that we could all aspire to their prosificative talents.
No, this is slashdot: it says R-TYPE.
Earth as seen from mars: a slashdot poster immediately thinks of Marvin the Martian while National Geographic thinks of The War of the Worlds.

Great policy. You show those eager and willing to learn bastards what's what.
I'd say yes. Second only to apostrophe's.
As long as there is economic inequality in the world, no speech that you must pay for is free.
Link us to your plans and photos and then we might get interested.

That channel doesn't exist.. too bad: I was just thinking about a need for a more text-based 'net during times of war.
