Exactly. This is the sort of thing AI researchers tout in order to maintain funding. For 60 years AI scientists have failed at creating anything close to intelligence so they trot out the micro-world or the game solver and claim they're progressing. They're not. Read What Computers Still Can't Do by Dreyfus. Great stuff and pretty much blows the lid off claims like the one found in this submission's headline.
What can you do with a small portable computer that runs Linux? I doubt anyone here would have any ideas. Try a site like Fark or something. I think they're into computers.
What's the difference? Wikipedia is supposedly self-editing, and self-correcting so what exactly do you mean by "manipulating." Every Wikipedia user "manipulates" content don't they?
In the last two years, there's been a heated debate over whether Wikipedia is as trustworthy as Encyclopedia Britannica. This obscures a crucial point: Wikipedia is at least reliable enough that such a question can be asked.
I think Wikipedia is compared to Britannica because Wikipedia claims to be an encyclopedia. Yahoo! Answers makes no such claim and that is the reason a comparison between Yahoo! Answers and Britannica has not and will not be made. Yahoo! Answers does not claim to be anything more than it is: a chance to "ask the audience."
So that's good right? This is a tough one. They're violating copyright but they're also creationists. If only one side was a little darker so I could tell who to root for.
Now I'm just a simple hyper chicken from a backwoods asteroid but does it seem right to call people who are being tried under the justice system in a public court "victims"?
The Wii would be worth it if they stopped making any physical titles for it. The Virtual Console makes the Wii worth it at twice the price. And I'm sure the overhead is very low for Nintendo.
No single verse in the Bible states the age of the Earth. Nor does the Catholic church, or any other organized church, deny Evolution. Unaffiliated Christians on the other hand...well they're all over the place. I went to Catholic school and we learned about evolution. Fuck, read Genesis and you'll see that the creation story pretty much mirrors evolution anyway. First there was nothing, then stars formed, light, planets formed, fish, then animals, then man. It's the same damn thing morons.
Holy fuck Sony, got enough configurations for the PS3 yet? I guess what they say is true: throw enough shit at the wall and sooner or later something's bound to stick.
The problem here is that it's impossible to show that you didn't mail yourself an empty envelope only to fill it days, weeks, months, or years later with content. The "federal datestamp" only shows when the envelope was mailed; not when it was filled.
What was depicted in the movie Jurassic Park was clearly Deinonychus. Velociraptor didn't have that large inner claw. In fact, the name Deinonychus means Terrible Claw while Velociraptor means Speedy Predator. I suspect they misnamed the dinosaur in the movie because the name Raptor was more marketable to children.
It would have been less of a deal if the rep said "Really? Thanks for telling me. I'll look into swapping out this unit." It probably wouldn't even have made the front page of/. then. And wouldn't that have been easier than coming up with some whack job story about "it's on purpose?" roflcopter. Seems to me that the only reason this rep would go with a nutsack story instead of a "I'll look into it" is because that morning he got an e-mail telling him that that was the direction they'd be going with for customer inquiries. Read the article, he got the same story from a Best Buy employee. Now, where's the smoking gun?

AMD hates them but not as much as Apple it seems. Article mentions that they "millions on the table" by refusing to apply Intel's stickers.
Hey I love my new Microsoft Kin!
I've had my sig for a couple of years now.
Luckily, I don't drive.

The only show I can think of that featured the Cone of Silence was Get Smart! What other shows featured this technology?

The Hubble has to be NASA's greatest success. And where Apollo was a triumph in engineering, Hubble is a triumph in pure science.
Oh yeah, I remember that thing. The Barcode Battler it was called.

Why do books still have chapters?

These things need to be stopped.

Adding 20 new, unobserved, unproven particles makes for an "exceptionally simple" theory? Wonder what Occam would say about that.
LucasArts' Thrillville: Off the Rails.
I've a feeling that Nintendo's publishing division makes more.

I like turtles.
