That's hilarious. Hope you get "funny." Some hypersensitive asshat decided to mark my post "overrated." That's what you get for not going AC against the poster.
It was software the entire time... we should have listened to the Terminator. Now we're stuck in this Fallout-style control room while skynet is about to get its war on... Damn...
Creatinine has not been tested well. While the body produces it, it does so only in minuscule amounts compared to over the counter dosage. Unfortunately, it really does allow somebody to push their body to the limits and maybe beyond while doing athletic activity. That's why it's popular.
Personally, if the human body isn't already set to produce this in massive amounts, I don't see any reason to abuse myself by using it. That goes for anything--including calcium in milk. If we start giving our bodies massive amounts of something it already produces, two things happen:
1) the body decides that it doesn't need to produce the chemical/mineral in question.
2) the kidneys go into overdrive getting rid of excess stuff.
People need to give themselves a break and stop buying into every stupid idea that some near-bankrupt company comes up with for self preservation.
ok, so on a straight g system, you get 5 times the rate of b wireless... b gets ~11Mper second times 5 = 55... a nice approximate number to 54... where is the problem? Why is this a controversy worth discussing?
Adults need to be responsible for their lives. Yeah, sounds obvious but apparently people are still lost on this point.
Everything has a time and a place. Keep everything in its time and place and keeping your sanity is easy. Get sunshine. Go to the beach. If that's not possible, try a municipal pool.
Life isn't complicated. People in this article want to make it complicated because at some point along the way, they'll profit.
If you stay up until sunrise, down gallons of caffeine and live in chat rooms then that's your decision. The consequences might be depression and isolation. Those who don't like it need to change the variables in their life program.
Why would you advocate the belief in intelligent design? Why would an intelligent designer make life on earth? What is the goal? Is this designer like a 10 year old playing Sim City? Works great until he gets bored and everything goes to hell, right?
Basically, if you believe in intelligent design, does anything matter? If a designer made me correctly (STRONG evidence against that), then why should I be concerned about what decisions I make? Everything will work out no matter what, right?
Just to cut off your obvious response that you aren't talking about design at the individual level (the pseudo-anthropology tactic), it seems like you are promoting a General Theory of Everything and, as such, have opened yourself to questions regarding the individual.
In December 2001, I interviewed the Medical Director of the Mars Society for Cyberista. The story is here. Everybody in that organization is superb in their field. Dr. Czarnik was an excellent interview subject.
This article sucks. Does anyone else get the feeling that this is an annoying Microsoft tactic to discredit good Indy games with implicit advocacy of their stupid console?
Are you really so broke and so bored that you would actually attempt to swindle an $11 2 megapixels camera? There's nothing insightful about your comment.
Excellent. No CDs and no stealing is the only way to change the business model. As long as there are a bunch of idiots that think they are "screwing the system" then the system will have every justification for pursuing consumers as criminals. There are ways to entertain oneself without RIAA member music. There are ways to entertain oneself without music at all.
Music screws with the mind in ways that not everyone understands. We've all seen the blips of corporations experimenting with sound to manipulate emotion and desire. Look at Spears and drug commercials. There's not much difference. They are packaging a lifestyle or solution that doesn't exist or is expensive to pursue or a completely fictional existence as drug commercials are good at doing.
Basically, fuck all these people. I don't need their noise. I don't need their shows. I don't need their drugs. I don't need their system either. And I'm not going to give them a reason to fuck with me or call me a hypocritic.
This attitude comes from 15 years(I'm 27) of total and complete access to all things digital. Once you possess the ability to possess everything, you can create an honest opinion on the value of it. Maybe that's why this world is so insane. The creators decided that it was once good but now it sucks and left it at that.:)
You spoke about sacrifice but there isn't really any sacrifice. Just adjust your desires and find some legal, ethical and more meaningful stuff to entertain yourself.
Corrupt industries lose when people HONESTLY refuse to play to their stupid business models.
the Deaf community generally shuns them as their equivalent of "tools of Satan."
The same thing happened to my mom when she got her implant but it didn't matter. Her quality of life skyrocketed. I'm in a wheelchair and "my community" got really upset when I learned to use a walker about 20 hours a week under strict supervision. While I haven't used a walker in a few years, the fact that I go swimming every day still gets to them so I avoid that crowd altogether.
People suck. If you announce that you are no longer tolerating your bullshit and will act/have acted on doing something about it, your "community" will get passive aggressive.
They wanted you to stay deaf with them in the illusion of "deaf culture." I'll throw "disability culture" out the window in a heartbeat if the same kind of blessing that your implant gives finds its way to neuromuscular conditions.
Nobody will ever be "normal" but aiming for something resembling normal is a noble cause. Fuck anybody that gets in the way or doesn't like it.
That said, the disabled friends I made at the University of Florida are terrific people and I'm sure they'll be friends of mine forever. Because of this, I suspect education and family have a HUGE impact on how people react to their "community." Well adjusted people will take joy in others progress like yours and my mom's. Angry people will shut down and start manipulating situations to push you out.
I'm not sure what these clowns at Yale are trying to accomplish. Maybe the fact that Yale is irrelevant is slowly creeping in on the campus and they feel like they have to do intellectual nonsense to stand out.
The speculator makes a bet on the outcome of a risky event which would exist in the absence of speculators, such as bad weather and natural disasters.
The gambler, finding nothing satisfactory for betting, sets up a slotted wheel, makes six-sided dice, designs cards which are identical from the back but different from the front, and then bets on what happens when these devices are randomized.
You know nothing about gambling.
Am I speculating on basketball because it will occur in the absence of speculators? Seriously, your post just screams about how you don't know what the Hell you are talking about.
"Half" to go? Try "have." It makes more sense. I know that the first defense against a grammar Nazi is "spelling isn't an indicator of intelligence" but without a valid excuse like voice dictation errors, using the WRONG WORD seems to be indicative of stupidity.
If the sweet spot is any percentage of the average driver in a sample of 92 million solo drivers, I wish these guys the best luck. The sweet spot is exactly where you want to be. There won't be many sales of solar powered cars.
92 million people drive alone burning obscene amounts of fuel... this was the example in the article and the one I'll stick with.
Yes, the energy comes from somewhere. In the US, that is probably a coal burning power plant.
When 92 million people are driving mini fossil fuel plants, there is no reliable way to track pollution output or even suggest improvements. Any changes to the vehicles themselves are ineffective unless everyone is driving with the new technology in their vehicles.
Now picture 92 million people driving on batteries. It still comes from a coal powered plant but instead of tracking and controlling pollution from 92 million points, your sample goes down to a much more manageable number of a couple thousand.
That's easy enough to analyze from an MS Access database. That's easy for congressmen to regulate. That's easy to make rules for. That's easy for the average citizen to make informed political decisions on.
Don't do the/. shuffle of knee-jerk membership in CAVE--Citizens Against Nearly Everything.
If they put air bags in the thing, it'd compress you quite well. They need pictures of the inside of the car as well. I would not like to see this car in an accident. Even the "bumper" if you would call it that, is virtually non-existant.
I'll risk my karma here--you are an asshat.
Exactly why would this thing need air bags if it has a jet pilot seat and a racing roll cage?
Go back to driving your SUV. Enjoy it. When 2% of people are driving these, gas will average over $2.20 a gallon.

This headline is the epitome of snobbery.
Yes, it is theoretically correct grammar but:
1. Nobody uses it this way.
2. Nobody actually says it this way.
3. Nobody gets penalized in any venue for using "a universe."
Didn't you know? Sheesh...
Humor aside, this is a shining example of how open source alienates ordinary people.

Seriously, starting shit with the government is an uninhibited BAD IDEA.
Looks like "jail time" will be the likely outcome despite the

What about other applications like DragonDictate? In light of this article, voice dictation is the ONLY thing keeping me from converting to Linux.
Tom Ridge won't care but Tom Clancy might be very interested. Sounds like another asinine use of the DMCA is on the way...
