"It's sort-of like a one-hundred kilometer long fish-net stocking in space, only it's incredibly strong, and it can withstand many years of bombardment by orbital debris," Hoyt said
Say, if they make these smaller, maybe I won't have to keep buying pantyhose for my girlfriend!
Hey, it's one thing for my wife to know that I'm a perv, but it's another thing entirely for her to admit it to the world! Most wives don't want the rest of the neighborhood knowing that they knowingly married perverts.
Someone will come along to tell us that global warming is a liberal commie tree-hugger myth. With luck, they'll also rant about how this study is an absurd waste of money that could better go to tax cuts for CEO's and bombing the shit out of little brown people.
On the other hand, someone will come along to tell us that not near enough attention is being paid to global warming and to worldwide ecosystems, and that this study somehow proves it.
Then they'll start ranting that this study is a blatant capitalist plug to try to defenestrate global warming.
No wonder the bubble burst the way it did! A whole mess of people went back to 1999, started a company, then sold out at exactly the right time (hey, they knew what was going to happen)! All those sales at once started the ball rolling...
Movies these days aren't expected to have much plot. It's not like books. Heh, not at all. Even so, the Hulk comics waxed pretty good at times, even in terms of plot.
What we really need to know is how to make a decent game without doing any programming, merely posting a bunch of unrealistic demands to a web forum that lets us make cool icons and signatures!
These days, just spinning yourself as an 'independent' label gives PR dividends.
How many 'independent' labels are members of the RIAA? If you look at their membership list (someone give me a link, please), you'll see more than just the 'mega-biggies'.
I'd be willing to bet that many indies buy onto the RIAA's DRM position. Many artists do, for that matter. So why do we assume that a label is non-RIAA compatible if it's indie?
Although some of the system elements have been modified over time, almost everything in your PC is a direct lineal descendent of the IBM PC AT--a seminal design that still shapes PC architecture two decades later.
I wonder how this guy will take it when he finds out how 'old' the major parts of his car are. Or maybe we should break the sad truth about the ancient, out-moded tool called a 'hammer'. Face it, having an old design is not necessarily bad.
We've been hearing about the advantages of blue light for seemingly years now.
We can't stop with blue light! We need to branch out into purple, yellow, even magenta! Soon all the colours of the world will be under our umbrella, and we will be all powerful!
It's only a matter of time before the overclockers find a way around this. Intel will likely have some kind of undocumented override in place to make it easier, even.

Whatever increases in technology occur, there will always be a market for oil, and it will always have an impact economically/politically.
Set aside the fact that it's (one of) the cheapest sources of energy that we know of. It's positively REQUIRED for production of various items, most prominently all sorts of plastics.
Provided the price point is fair and paying is convenient, I'll be first in line.
Just out of curiosity, how many people consider a 'fair' price point to be greater than $0.00? Very few hardcore filesharers will actually buy music online, because the price is 'unfair'.
And how convenient does this have to be? Credit Card? (Oh, wait, we don't trust 'those people' with our credit cards.)
('Those people' being anyone who gets in bed with music producers.)
From the article: "You cannot say it is not related to children when you use cartoon figures. It's obvious children will gamble with this product," Steinberg said. "There should be no cartoon figures in any form of gambling."
I guess slots are improper, then. Can't have those cartoony-looking fruits. Hey! Fruits! I betcha someone's gonna say slots are gay now...

Great, now everyone in Madison is going to know that even his wife thinks that he's a perv...
Not only that, I didn't see it mentioned in the article. What is our honoured submitter smokin'?

I'm really surprised no one's started a serious global warming flame. really.

I thought manhole covers are round because manholes are round. I mean, you don't shove a square peg in a round hole, right?
A functional plot for a movie, yes.
Movies these days aren't expected to have much plot. It's not like books. Heh, not at all. Even so, the Hulk comics waxed pretty good at times, even in terms of plot.
The Hulk has a very good Dr Jekyl/Mr Hyde subtext going on. They could make that work very well.
Plus, all the explosions and army guys! What more can a guy like?

And, isn't that something else that languages like Perl and Python try to do? They try to create more "readable" programs?
I thought Perl programmers tried to create more "obfuscated" programs.
Because it's new.
Oh yeah, also because the voices in that shiny box tell me to care about it. The voices know everything
Why does it not mention Palm OS? Is Palm tanking that bad, or does someone not want Palm OS mentioned as a competitor to WindowsCE?

I wonder if it would be plausible to get these guys to cease-and-desist under the DMCA.
IANAL, but I kinda doubt it, but it's nice to dream about, no?

When I saw this, I said to myself:
"Can I, as a programmer, design new stuff in-simulation and profit off of it?"
(Open question)
It's only a matter of time before the overclockers find a way around this. Intel will likely have some kind of undocumented override in place to make it easier, even.
I wonder if this means the newspaper comic Fox Trot will retire its iFruit computer.
