For the longest time people believed that the UI seen in minority report would be an awesome thing to have, only now that touch devices are widespread, we're seeing just how bad touchscreens are ergonomically and how little demand there is for large touchscreen displays.
That is exactly what currently happens. This is about the fact that they generate more energy than they need sometimes from wind, and could store it for when they do need it for spikes.
The big one for me is events. Friends set up events on facebook and also music gigs, etc. Brilliant way of tracking them. I even have it linked into google calendar with all my other items I need to track like college timetable, etc. Its light years better than when I had to read through newspapers and stuff to find out when things were on, or had to ring a load of people to set up a night out or whatever.
You are very wrong. I can tell you first hand there is huge physical withdrawl if you smoke enough for long enough. Not being able to sleep or eat for days or weeks is normal. Sweating constantly, waking up in pools of sweat. Take one bite of food, instantly full. Only way to sleep is wait till you pass out, then wake an hour later as if it was 1 min. Took two weeks for me to be sorta normal, more like a month before I felt physically fine. The mental addiction lasts months.
Dark matter doesn't sound even remotely as weird as quantum mechanics. Yet quantum mechanics works incredibly well. You wouldn't have been able to type that comment without us understanding quantum mechanical effects that seem like magic. How uninituitive a theory sounds is a ridiculous judge of whether it is useful or accurate.
Until the founders of Google lose majority voting control in 2014 I don't fully agree. They are slowly becoming more of a megacorp. Starting to not care about their customers needs, dropping features and stuff. But I still believe the founders are trying to keep google somewhat good.
Well we do know, you just disregarded the whole sentence about critical thinking removing belief in god. That isn't opinion, that is a study from Harvard. There are also many other similar studies. Nothing you mention has anything to do with god as people refer to it. It's just philosophy. I have no problem with the possibility of a higher level intelligence god like being. We will surely become such beings eventually. But to think such a being would be any of the gods people refer to in religion seems ridiculous to anyone who analyses the situation in depth.
His post was clear and to the point. It even rises nicely to a finish. The fact you think its complicated and twisty speaks volumes about your education level. This is standard stuff any high school level teenager could read. I wonder what you would think of the work of an author like James Joyce:p

I find this strange. Youtube never needs to buffer for me, no matter the stream or quality.
do you happen to remember what book this was? I love such stories. it sounds kinda like. Charles stross - accelerando?
Galaxies do not expand. They are gravitationally bound structures and the expansion force is much weaker.
How about this for RaPi?
Why would you refer to a product as "rapey"?
Because its clearly pronounced rah-pie? Unless you pronounce pi as pee? and raspberry as ray-spberry?

We have known UI's like that suck since the 80's.

It was Dijkstra
No information is exchanged though, information still moves slower than light.

Light Peak is the codename for the Thunderbolt interface, you know the one on the iphone 5 and such.
They collide different types of particles with different results is what I was getting at. Less messy collisions, more precise measurements.
It's a linear collider that will have between 1/10th and 1/20th the power of the LHC. It won't be measuring the properties of the Higgs.
Maybe you should read about the aims of the ILC. One of its main points is studying the higgs.
At least play with the toys you have now before asking for new ones.
Its a linear collider, not a synchrotron. Totally different uses.

What a ridiculous statement. Girls everywhere use the internet.

Trillions? Please. It only cost 10 billion. Basically pocket change for most of the countries involved in the project.
There are very few curly red heads in Ireland. If they have such hair it's usually dyed and / or straightened.
I've read them several times and that thought never crossed my mind.
Mars is 1/3 G roughly, 38% really. The Moon is 1/6.
thats the joke dude... comes from this guy: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marcus_Brigstocke
