incorrect. In this analogy you cannot cut through the middle because you are limited to traveling on the surface. When things like this are spoken of, the earth's surface is 2 dimensions only, you cannot leave the spherical plane into a third dimension. Likewise, with the 3d universe as the surface of a 4d sphere, you cannot leave the 3rd dimension and "cut through the middle."
no, i just don't think boiling fluids are fascinating. I've watched plenty inside beakers, etc that are clear. Now, if it were something like lead boiling, that's exciting to watch, since it's REALLY hot when it does that. If i wanted to watch bubbles in a clear tank I'd go watch a fish tank, which also has shiny fish swimming around, not just a cpu that doesn't move. There's a reason computers are put in cases...they're boring to watch!
by looking cool, do you mean like a pot of boiling water? because that's exactly what it would look like. I don't find it particularly cool to watch water boil.
the reason java is preferred for mobile and embedded solutions is that there is a larger base of cheap java programmers than there are C/C++ programmers. Mobile and embedded solutions are produced by corporations, for the fast moving consumer market. cheap and fast work is much better than expensive but reliable in this case.
I was employed by a pr0n company for 4 years, writing and maintaining the members area software and the affiliate system software. so, surfing our members area was definately a large part of my job.
I think that after someone says "I love such-and-such" (fill in such-and-such with whatever you like, be it iPod, WMA, crack, redbull, etc.) the person is romantcizing.

no suprise that you're an ogg supporter with a post that long. all a bunch of hot air.
EULA = end user LICENSE agreement, a general noun. GPL = GNU public LICENSE, the name of a speific license, a proper noun.
they are both licenses, the same type of legal document. A contract is not a license. You can very well make a license that makes the licensed product free (as in speech) but costs a penny. It doesn't change the fact that it's a license to use something, not a contract.
HOWEVER, imho all software purchases should be a contract purchase, not a licensed one.
speaking of reefer and legos...nothing beats my mindstorms powered bong! fans and light sensors rule, all i have left is to hack together a heating element:)
Here's some trivia about Lab: It was invented by a guy named Richard Hunter, the founder of HunterLab Associates in Reston VA. They created the color machine vision industry, i.e. robots that make sure paint, textiles, foodstuffs, etc are all a consistent color. really cool shit! It was so much fun having my dad work there growing up.
like many others have said, it does not feel like they're pushing the mainstream, more like they're pushing into the geek market. Who told the pinks to buy computers in the first place? the geeks. Are you saying we don't have considerable clout in terms of computer purchasing decisions? Once macs are entrenched in the geek world, it's a short hop for our mom's to be following suit so they can keep the free tech support.
honda sold 313,159 civics in 2002. Porsche sold a total of 54,234 cars. Does that mean a Porsche is a bad car that is going away? no, sportscars have always had a lower market share than daily drivers. But the market is always there.
thanks to ashcroft, the pron tradeshows have the women wearing more clothes:( thankfully my company spared me from going before firing me...I got 3 years of nudity filled tradeshows in under my belt:)
in an airport bar with one of these for her epilepsy. There was a thingy implanted in her chest w/ a wire running to her head. you could see the wire just under her skin. Her voice went out and she had to explain that the wires ran near her voicebox so that when it turned on, her voice went out. She said before the device she couldn't do anything...couldn't go out w/o help, couldn't drink, couldn't do drugs, now she can do anything. Very exciting stuff!!

My friend got a dell and started boasting about his 7 hour battery life.
later on he mentioned that it's only with the second battery plugged in. lame.

ya know, picard brought up a similar point in one episode of STTNG where the Romulans....

It's overrated.
People have been chipping cars for years...might as well have posted a story about microsoft's "new" monopoly. recockulous!!!

personally, I eat a trillion dollars for breakfast each morning. If only I could bring myself to go hungry for just one morning...
if you give me 1 trillion dollars
where do you think those models came from? business has been around a lot longer than computers...
