How can a placebo physically supress an alergic reaction (red eyes, runny nose..etc) is beyond me. We are talking about chemical reaction here, not psychology.
Works awsome for me. Then again, I'm living in an appartment and I'm alergic to mold. I guess the negitive ions really have an effect on mold spores. Other then that, I dunno what to tell you. But honestly, this thing has really helped with my sleep.
Yout brain, being chemical is like a battery. You will never use 100% because if you did, you might be uber smart...but only for about 30 minutes out of a 12 hour period. Not exactly ideal for human servival throughout the remaining time.
Going to sleep allows the body to regenerate the chemicals the brain needs to function. When your tired and cannot think clearly, it's safe to assume you used most of your brains capacity for the day.
I'm going to get flamed for this. But... you might want to think about getting a mini-mac or G5. Those things are uber silent for the amount of processing they can do. Granted: I've never used a mac before, but I would go that route if I planned on doing some heavy multimedia and wanted it to be quite.
Why does everyone seem to knock on the Ionic Breeze? That device kicks ass! It really helps with my sinuses so I can sleep better at night. And the amount of filth it collects makes gives me all the more reason to have more then just one in my appartment.
These things should be installed in all HVAC systems in buildings!
With all the spyware running on boxen these days, it's finally nice to have a CPU dedicated to spyware thread processing.
Why should users prevent and remove the stuff when they can just throw more CPU cycles at it just to keep the PC responsive?
And yes, the whole premise behind this is absurd. But people often have and do throw money at a solution out of acts of being lazy/responsible when it comes to system maintenence.
Wrong, totally incorrect. It was the ACLU that joined with Limbaugh. Limbaugh NEVER asked for help from the ACLU. That said however, Rush agreed when the ACLU offered the help.
Speaking of Rush Limbaugh. Sight just one topic he spoke of that you do not agree with and why? Or do you not listen, but rather just a mindless drone that talks smack about nothing you know of?
I'm partriotic, yes. But I'm not a condecending asshole that you make me out to be.
The fact you trust China over the US is pure insanity. That said, you must think that tiananmen square, the support for N. Korea in vitnam, the threat of invading invading and inforce the athoriterian rule over Taiwan.
But that's ok right? Because anything China did is still better then what the US has done.
And you got modded up? Why does this not supprise me?
Further reason to expand our militery. If the rest of the world wants to turn in to a slimepit devoid of morals and what is pure in this world, we may need our militery to ensure freedom in our country....that is if it doesn't already errode from within itself.
Maybe there is nothing we can do to avoid WW3. Maybe the human race will always be at war regardless of what logic says right in our faces about oppression and freedom.
The fact the world trust China over US is a perfect example. It's like watching a cannery slowly die in a coal mine. That is to say, there is a major problem here, and it's NOT because of the US. Rather, just illogical fear from the rest of the world toward us.
Because liberals/socialists are cowards. So yes, they will always support those they fear in hopes they will always be on their good side and treated fairly.
Point being, processing MP3s isn't a problem anymore. Take for example your standard cell phone...it's almost impossible to get one without a camara. Soon, it will be almost impossible to get one without MP3 playback.
If the hardware becomes cheap enough, the market-droids will find a way to tack on "features" as a selling point. So again, I stand by the fact that MP3 hardware = commodity. In fact, I would say that DVD playback hardware is a commidity too.
You said it yourself. Americans are lazy because that is what the WANT! After pulling more then 60 hours a work week, maybe being lazy when you get home is what they/we want at the end of the day.
As soon as joe sixpack wakes up from this lucid dream, the sooner he will see just how long he has been chasing his own tail.
As I know, Chinese people are not overweight because of their lifestyle diet. Or more over, they do not over eat.
I'm curious though; as China becomes more modern and western-like in the next few generations, I wonder if we will start seeing a lot more fat and overweight Chinese.
It would seem that all developed nations end up having a health regarding weight problems. I suppose cheap food leads to gluttony. Just a thought...
Republicans do it far more often then democrats, but that is only because most democrats are dirt poor.
This has GOT to be the most ignorant statement I've read in a looonng time. Seriously, just name me ONE politition in office that is dirt poor. Hint: You can't because because a "poor politition" is an oxymoron.
For the record, iTunes does suck ass in my opinion. But, the problem of it crashing or disconnecting you ipod in the middle of a transfer is not it's fault. The problem is due to a faulty battery. If your luckly, the iPod wont unmount correctly and you will get a BSOD screen (at least it did on my XP Pro).
At first I though the issue was with my firewire (IEEE 1394) ports and known compatibility. But, this issue happend when I tried using the port on my Audigy 2 card. This did not make a difference. It finally got so bad that charging the iPod for a few minutes helped a lot before I connected it to my PC. That's when I started to get suspecious of a fauly battery.
Because of the on-going issue with my iPod, I decided to cash in on my extended 4 year warranty plan I got from Best Buy. After having to deal with customer-no-service, the finally submitted my unit for repair. To make a long story short, Apple replaced the battery and I got my unit back.
End resault: I haven't had a problem with file transfers and a quickly draining batter life. I can only suspect the fauly battery was not supplying the peak current needed by the unit due to the hard drives requirement during data transfer. Hence, it shits the bed after about 5 minutes of file transfers in iTunes.
As I know, most drives now days are built using glass substrait platters. For example, one day I took apart a dead laptop IBM drive once. As I was playing around with it, I dropped the drive. What really sucked however, was that the all the platters shattered into tiny glass slivers/shard which made cleanup a major PITA.
But now that I think about it, this really is good for security. Should the FBI ever come knocking on my door (not they would have a reason mind you), I would yank the drive and hit the damn think really hard with a hammer. What do you know eh? An instant maraca!
Actually, IBM has much to gain from Linux in one major way; IT Support.
When you profit more on support contracts without having to invest heavly into R&D, you've got a major cash cow. Linux is already developed by the OSS community. All IBM has to do is make a few modification here and there and rebrand into their own destro. At this point, you just need to swap the airwaves and newspaper with marketing about your flavor of Linux and the ability for them to support it...for a fee of course.
I would envision this to really make Apple and Microsoft quake once IBM becomes a 3rd player in the OS market.
I call BS on the lack of educational funding. The problem isn't that students don't have the opportunity due to lack of funding, that instead it has to due to lack fo motivation and drive thanks to our MTV overlords and lazy parents willing to stand up for morals and values. But then again, you can't teach what you don't know yourself as a parent. Hence, a self fulfilling prophecy.
Point being, you can never throw money at a problem that is a social issue in society. It's like mixing oil and water.
IBM is really doing the industry a good job by actually sticking their own neck in regards to leadership, checks and ballances.
So, when can we expect an IBM flavor of Linux? IBM knows how to market software and has had experience with OS2 Warp. Now they just need their own destro to go along with their support of open source software.

Didn't music used to always be open source? I seem to have forgotten. Hmm, imagine that...

Yes, when Sandisk brings a 20GB SD flashcard to the market. I own a Samsung phone that runs Windows Smartphone.
I can play MP3s on my phone, PDA, handheld...etc
Why is this even news? Maybe interesting to get a real article about this topic, but hardly news.
Don't be surpised to get a free "made in china" portable MP3 player with your next CD purchase.
Bingo!

It would be rather ironic if VOIP sounds better using a WiFi connection then it does using standard cell networks.

Can you hear me? Now....now...how bout now? Wait just a sec, let me fire up Skype mobile. Ahhhh...much better.

I'm sure someone will solve this problem. Hell, it might even be some radical that takes a modified ICBM and equips it with warpdrive abilities.
...naa....it could never happen. Just ignore me.
Who know...we might even make friends with some pointy eared human like creatures.
