"It's clear now that the smaller we go, the more that cooling engineers need to be involved early in product design." How small could these pipes be? Could methonol filled nanotubes vent heat from processors? Or would liquid nitrogen still be the move? I would think liquid nitrogen would be better for troops - I don't know about you, but were I a troop, predator or no predator, I would want the smallest infrared signature possible in combat. And processor temperatures ought to show up nicely while venting, - also, the troops could dip ballons and bannanas in the nitrogen and then shatter them to impress villagers.
Yea, I agree with you (whomever thou art oh anonymous one) about the probable economic failure of a Big-Screen gaming theatre. I don't really see this big theater, bring your friends thing doing it. But my post is in reference to online gaming, hence the Nvidia. Online gaming is where it is at, not lan gaming (though quakecon is something of a different category, what with the thousands of dollars and 10s of women). The big screen? It will always be movies, perhaps even holographic 3d movies someday. But the television screen, now that is quick becoming a monitor.
does rain precipitates differently in lower gravity? Certainly it would look a bit different hitting the ground, right? Maybe the Drops have to condensate bigger, so these giant raindrops come down at a half the speed of earths raindrops, like some boy-band video slow mo. Or maybe the raindrops are much smaller and it's a miniature version of earth rain. I wonder.
yes, I have recently been swayed to the same side of the court as you. Free will is kind of nice to imagine, like santa claus or god, but it's more like autotopia at disneyland. You know, the little cars you get to "drive" around a track. The only thing is the cars are bound to follow the same course because they are atop tracks. Nevertheless, there is a steering wheel,thus giving the illisioun of control. funny isn't it?
I guess Nvidia was on to something with the term "Cinematic Gaming." My friend once asked something that made me laugh and then think. He asked, while I was watching Jerry Springer and he was playing Return to Castle Wolfenstein, "When did television get so bad, and video games get so good?" I mean look at this! I don't know about you, but I don't want to just WATCH Tom Hanks in saving private ryan, I want to BE Tom Hanks in saving private ryan - only without the dying part.
By having desirable content under a single domain it is simple for a parent to restrict thier childs access to only kids.us. Also, the domain model would work better for library/school kiosks where a whitepage solution would require periodical updates and reduce administration for any additions.I think it's a great idea. If by chance a kid posts something on the kittens.kids.us forum linking to hotpussies.com then any attempt to access the second level.com. domain would be barred. True, a whitelist would also bar access to any domain outside the scope of the list, but i revisit the administration issue - after all, don't domains present a security boundry and simplify administration?
I saw a show on discovery science about that whole free will myth...Complete with Corpus Collosum cutting and such, very compelling, very hard to argue, very disheartning. But you can (insert irony) choose to believe what you want:)...can't you?
I hate everything about him!!! Just read the description of him here(I hope you are as happy as I with the CGI redirect the page forces upon the user). the illusion of artificial life... Illusion!? WTF? Bonzi becomes more intelligent the more you browse... Just like The CIA becomes more intelligent the more they tap? This cute gorilla is a good companion for beginners who want to explore the Internet in a fun way. For experienced Net users, it has a certain entertainment value but does not replace more professional tools. Isn't that a weird way to end the description? It's almost like they're covering their asses or something. At any rate, there is no concealing or withholding the pure hatred and animosity I feel for this abomination by the name of Bonzi Buddy...Blech, I spit.
NT for 5 years now. It's simple. Like owning a dutch wall, with a lot of generous boys to plug the holes. I upgraded to Windows 2000, which is NT 5.0. Whole domain, simple. And everytime some horrindous security hole appears I just visit the pretty blue and orange microsoft.com and there is a little dutch boy waiting to plug a hole in the dike. But don't think for a second I don't have my public on anything less than a Nat/Firewall box. Oh you clever kiddies you..
Dude, I was like totally let down when I saw the preview with Gandalf as Gandalf the white! I have never read the books as a child, you see. This movie was like such an awesome thing for me because all of my friends were big Tolken fans. So when a movie comes out I am like "hey man" (man being me of course)"I am going to watch the trilogy and then read it because this is a chance for me to have a unique perspective on this popular epic," - You know, seeing as many people have read the trilogy first and then seen the movies second after reading. But then I see a preview, happenstance, with Gandalf the white coming back from the dead after Frodo wasted all that emotion on the loss of his friend (not to mention the tear I shed, just like in braveheart - this guy knows what I'm talkin about) I was like, dude that sucks!!! I totally did not even see Gandalf the white coming! But here it is in front of my face, without me having read the books. What a letdown. It was like some asshole friend telling me, "you liked the first book? Well in the second Gandalf comes back...Yep...comes back as Gandalf the white. Oh, and Luke is Darth Vader's son." That kind of friend is an asshole. Just as some asshole could have made this preview avoid the topic of the return of Gandalf for the sake of the blissfully ignorant, and willfully ignorant too - it's called suspension of disbelief...also, it's unfair of me to judge those in charge of the prievews as assholes or any one involved as an asshole nonetheless I agree wholeheartedly with the post. the end.
what are the chances of a planet like earth with a star like the earths with the chemical makeup of earth getting hit with a comet/big-ass-thing (probably the most likely part of the equation), which is not so terribly big as to wrend the planet into star-orbiting dust, and not too small as to allow the pieces to coalesce back into a nice spheroid, but just big enough to launch a healthy piece (meaning lively) through space to rendevous with a planet like earth with a star.......you get the picture. I want just as badly as any other sci-fi buff to make it with a hot alien babe. But let's face it. 2 meter tall, bipeadal, sexy aliens are pretty unlikely...Even more unlikely than life as we know it or most of us getting laid tommorow. "We have calculated (in the Mileikowsky paper in Icarus (2000) that in order to protect spores for 1 million years against cosmic radiation, a 1-meter-thick layer of the meteorite is necessary."...how thick must it be for entry through an atmosphere?
I think people who copy the interview and then re-post it on slashdot as the first reply are great! That said,
From that response, Ralsky can monitor the effectiveness of his pitch and the subject line on the e-mail to make sure he's getting maximum return. Does this mean we should start opening e-mails that we are certain not to buy the product of?

She says "like", like 28 times. I like counted.

Don't forget to give your brain the proper access rights and privileges! I apparently only gave mine modify/delete.
I agree that digital can at times seem sterile. But do we not transfer our lives to chemical format everytime we snap a picture? Do we not turn our leaders into cold, lifeless stone sculptures? A record is always going to lose something in the transfer process. I just happen to think digital records lose the least during this transfer.In fact, I think this is a pretty wide held notion. After all, will an mpeg of an old pet not recall something mere photos or memories can not? Not to contradict of course. After all we have yet to see a digital format for smell . And a final point for your side of the argument (just for the sake of equivocation), Olfaction and memory seem to be integrally linked. In fact, there is a biological basis to this close association. Unlike other sensory neurons, which are routed first through the thalamus, olfactory neurons send information immediately into areas of the cerebrum, while other branches simultaneously travel directly into the portions of the limbic system associated with memory. So, while sights and sounds stored in perfect sterile digital files may not bring back the rush of emotion a scent or taste does, at least they let us see that the girl was actually attractive, not simply wearing good perfume.

Now that IS the million dollar question isn't it!
