Actually, at first I read it as "odd copulation schemes,"
Your're not the only one. I figured they were talking about where the company in question could stick various objects or with whom (themselves) they could copulate with.
A mugging is not a life or death situation (usually). Most reputable firearms instructors will tell you that if your getting mugged and carrying, give the guy your wallet. It's not work your life or his.
Now if you are in a store where the "bad guy" is systematically executing hostages, having a gun and using it one him is worth trying. I used to legally carry a concealed pistol and would have given over my wallet in the first situation, and I would have used my gun in the second.
We shouldn't restrict gun ownership or concealed carry. We should just make sure that people who are licensed to carry should be trained. The laws on the books now already make it illegal for the "bad guy" to own or posses a gun. We don't need any more.
I'm curious, do you have any links for information regarding speciation? I can understand that evolution on a micro scale is quite evident and proven, but I have yet to see anything regarding macro evolution (speciation). I haven't yet heard/found any convincing evidence of this yet but I would love to see some. Thanks!
I believe (couldn't RTFA,/.'d), that they were refereing to the section of ocean floor that actually moved, thereby triggering the tsunami. I could be wrong though.
If I RTFA correctly, the tires should be better for off-roading since they will wrap around the bumps/rocks easier. I would really like to see how these would scale up to 36" tweels, especially if they can make them lighter.
Not his point, but I think we should do more things like this. Traditions and such like these are missing in many childrens lives. These things generate a lot of wonderfull memories that will last a lifetime.
This is true, but the computer would be smart enough to realize that the apple was inside the person and not dematerialize it. At least I would hope:).
Except that the holodeck used transporter and replicator technology to create the small physical items in the holodeck. Only the surroundings and people were holograms. The apple created on the holodeck is the same one that is created in the replicator.
Socialism isn't "evil". It's just impractical with the human psyche. Most of us want to be "better" than the next guy. We want a better stereo, a better car, or a better house than the Joneses down the street. To get these things some are willing to work harder than others around us. When you introduce wealth redistribution, or socialism, it can, and usually does, take away the incentive to work hard. This stiffles production and innovation. And you will always get a few in power who will take a great deal more than the "equal" portion everyone else gets (Soviet Union, China, Cuba, N. Korea, by no means did/does the ruling party live like the populace). Socialism doesn't work because we are human, not because there are a few "evil" rich people. Ah well, an off topic rant for the holiday.
Another good and free online game is Continuum (used to be subspace). You can hope online and play for 10 minutes or 10 hours. It doesn't have fancy graphics or game play (it's a lot like a steroid addicted asteriods). There are a few different game styles, but my favorite is capture the flags. I have a blast and play as much as I can spare the time.
They already are. They are part of a secret alien mind control plot (based on the moon of course) to control society and turn us all into mindless idiots. As you can probably tell, they are about 80% complete.

What the hell are you talking about. Most of the posters on slashdot can't grow facial hair.

Every time an editor posts a dupe, God kills a puppy.
I don't come here for variety, I come here for redundancy.
Bunch of f**kups sitting around on Sunday with nothing better to do than complain.

When the holy fuck did this become a technical forum?!?!
That counter is climbing quickly....up ~200 in the past 5 minutes.

Are the moderators now trolling by auto-modding the first post as off topic no matter what it's about?
You've just been itching to use "dyson sphere" in a post on here haven't you?
Un-friggin-believable. That has to be some of the coolest lego work I have ever seen.
I would buy it in a heartbeat. Duke3D was my all time favorite FPS.

Sorry to ruin the funny.

Holy crap, I'm sober and thought that it said that. I did just wake up though....
