No way dude. We won't even know how a brain functions in a decade. There isn't even a formal definition of consciousness. There is a lot of evidence to suggest the free will of the conscious mind is in fact an illusion.
This is the greatest thing ever. We can outsource all of our code to china pakistan and india and integrate it automatically into our applications with no review for security!
Joseph Silk has no room to talk on this issue. We just spent 700 million dollars to find the gravity waves that would exist if his model of cosmic inflation actually happened. (planck mission) The evidence for gravity waves was proven not to exist. His theory has actually been proven wrong. Has he changed his theory? I doubt it. Instead he is walking around complaining about mathematicians exploring complex theories that will be testable at some time in the future. What a maroon.
From my memory:
486 sx 33 mhz
486 dx 66 mhz (prime doom machine)
486 dx2 - 80 mhz, There may have been a few overclocked to a whopping 100 MHz
I have a vague recollection of the dx2 having some processor cache memory management advantages as well but not sure
Can't you just go directly to the IP Address? A system without dns and where people have the ability to get static ip addresses at home would be much more liberal than the current system.
The extents to which the scientific community is going to support inflation and the rigor they defend it in internet chat rooms is more representative of religious zealots than scientific method.
Although I agree that the extra 100-200 years has been over emphasized I disagree with your general premise. These type of astronomical occurrences are easily predicted (past / future) by ancient mathematicians and were easily predictable at the time by civilizations worldwide from mesoamerica to china for the probable dates presented for the creation for the mechanism. The knowledge of astronomy, planetary and motion were pretty much common knowledge at 200 bc. This makes the 'revelations' of galileo rather comical in retrospect. What is remarkable about this mechanism is the degree of precision of its mechanical design which was unsurpassed at the time (as far as we know). The complexity of this device to accurately predict astronomical phenomena for centuries, mechanically, at the date of its creation belittles the acheivements of the renaissance and calls into question the belief that rome contributed significantly to mediterranean civilization.
I'm pretty sure reddit probably through google analytics may have started doing this around eighteen months ago. I tested trolling them with sock puppets and they could identify my house through tor but could not differentiate between individual computers in the house. So pretty much anybody that uses google analytics probably has this capability.
Since 90 percent of native americans were wiped out by european diseases this basically says that 80 percent of the original population of the americas was not resistant to euroasiatic diseases. There is a marked non-scientific warpath to discredit the solutrean hypothesis. The extremes to which modern historians go to discredit the solutrean hypothesis actually reduce the entire discipline to a pseudoscience. Please realize that there was most likely a constant low level genetic drift between the continents for the past 40 thousand years. I am fairly confident that the bronze age atlantic civilization was in sporadic contact with the new world. The massive push for colonization of the new world / pursuit of new paths of commerce to asia brought about by the fall of constantinople and monopolization of the east west trade coupled with the resurgence of written history in europe in no way sheds doubt on the ability of ancient mariners to traverse the globe.
Since the equations only express the properties of the universe, what exaclty did the quantum fluctuation occur in? This seems to be more of a confirmation of M-theory than that the universe came from nothing. What is the formula for the state directly before the fluctuation ocurred? It seems that state would be necessary to calculate what the fluctuation occurred IN. That would, to me, be more of a discovery.

the easiest cheapest way is just to get large usb drives, hook them to a computer with an operating system you already understand and mirror the drives. Since you all live in different areas the chance of all the drives failing simultaneously is pretty slim.
I also limit access to my house to other devices that have cameras / microphones on them, not just the kinect. I purchased a kinect 2 years or so ago and was disturbed the first time I got up to go pee and the movie automatically paused. My xbox knows when I pee.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Improvised_firearm I couldn't find the link now, but don't all commercial printers print a tracking code on every print made in order to prevent and track counterfeit money? This is already done on regular printers so there is a very high likelihood this could get passed.
Using a word like deniers to label people whose opinion you oppose is morally offensive. Climate changes this rapidly fairly commonly. http://www.nature.com/scitable/knowledge/library/abrupt-climate-change-during-the-last-ice-24288097 If you review the vostok data the Holocene is already much longer than any recent interglacials, from that data we can infer that a glaciation lasting approx. 10000 years is about to descend and ruin human civilization. I'm not saying greenhouse gases are not causing global warming. What I'm saying is that is a hell of a lot better then dealing with another ice age. . The theory for long term global warming seems to be based on this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIS_11 Hitting a window of 30000 years width 400000 years ago while simultaneously predicting the Milankovitch cycles at the time is a lot to bet the fate of humanity on. Picking MIS-11 out of the last five interglacials seems to me like cherry picking your data to support a populare opinion. Further, the guy who wrote the book picking MIS-11 wrote a book claiming the exact opposite in the seventies. New data on MIS-11 refutes it's pleasantly warm reputation. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2748712/ IF you look at all the scientific evidence other than the geologically insignificant data for the last 130 years it is abundantly obvious that a long-term ice age is much more likely than long-term global warming.
Well then, perhaps your expertise is exactly what the bitcoin community is looking for. MTGOX should not be the only exchange. You do seem to know what your are talking about. Most analysts I have heard on television do not stress this point. There is no doubt that real market factors contributed to the collapse of the US housing market, but some people were able to handily take advantage of the collapse. (As happens with most things). As a person who participated in both the dotcom and housing booms of the last 15 years or so, I can say that I was aware of the housing problem before it collapsed and was deftly able to shift gears to the Marcellus explosion that recently occurred, and now seems to be starting to taper off. If I knew as a corporate lemming what was occurring it seems rather far-fetched that the majority of analysts were unaware.
I'd prefer if you used your vast financial knowledge to explain to everybody you talk to about how lack or regulation of credit default swaps allowed large investment entities to increase the leverage on US home mortgages to the point that the US government had to step in and pay the debts of private corporations.
Man are you dumb. The fact that this was voted insightful truly forces me to again take note of the precipitous drop of overall IQ on slashdot over the last few years.
Bitcoin != to an account. Bitcoin = dollar. Where you choose to store your bitcoins is entirely up to you. Depending on your situation your money may be more useful in dollars, bitcoins, euros, or yuan. If you want to access your money without approval of or notification by the US banking system then bitcoins is the way to go. If you want to store your money in a stable, mature currency that has little chance of volatility in value you use the dollar, or perhaps the yuan. If you want to take the chance of a national government unilaterally taking your money without notification you use the euro. The bottom line is that it depends on your needs. Some people may want to take a portion of their savings, buy bitcoins, place the bitcoins on a USB stick then hide the stick in their attic. This might be akin to investing in a smaller more volatile currency such as the rupee or rand. These types of investments have been in use by major investment firms for years, and make up a percentage of the investments in what they call 'high risk growth funds". The article is FUD, your comment is FUD. In fact I almost wonder if there is a connection between you and the people who are precipitating the DDOS attack on MTGOX.
The greatest advantage of a bitcoin is that you don't have to ask a large corporations PERMISSION to access or transfer your money. It's entirely too easy for a government to unilaterally freeze all of your assets. I suggest you view a few episodes of Burn notice.

You make a good point. 100 years is way to small of a dataset to make any judgements on geologic processes.
The goal is to spread life off of this planet in a sustainable way BEFORE an asteroid hits it again.
We currently have the technology to create an underground base on the moon and should do so immediately.
