Berkley has made some great stuff over the years. But this is truly cool. You could make a supercomputer the size of your current computer tower today. Or maybe even smaller with some other control method.
I wouldn't mind being a clone one bit. I wouldn't tell anyone about it, because people are stupid in this field. But I am not my mother, I am not my father either. I'm my own person and clones will be too.
The one thing I can't stand about using Linux is how selecting something automatically copies it. I was expecting a windows-like behavior of select, copy, click, paste. Instead, I get select, click, paste, OH CRAP GOT THE WRONG THING.
In other news, my name has been changed to "Lord and Master of the Universe." Anyone who refers to me by my birth name will have to be sued for diluting my trademark.
I will also have to sue all those companies who ignored my resume for reduction-of-profit(tm). And the city for making me pay taxes. And the grocery store for not supplying me the food I need to live for free. And, if he exists, God for making me have a carbohydrate-fat based metabolism that requires constant inputs.
Seriously, can we say "Terorristic Threat," boys and girls?
You see, if you actually join the military, they don't have to give you the job you ask for. So if you ask to be IT and disappoint them in any way, they'll scrap your education and make you an infantryman (That's the guy with the gun running around in the trenches as far as I understand.)
So is there opportunity? Sure. Will I take it? NOT FOR A MILLION DOLLARS.
Yeah, the colas I speak of are no-names that they sell in supermarket vending machines. And if you could buy them in bulk they'd be even cheaper than that.

Why would I like my legs to remember? Controlling them is easy enough.
You are exactly the kind of person that I gave the CDs to.

Or even maybe implant it in your body.
A music loving relative one year got me a gift card to a music shop. A pop-only music shop. Oops.
I ended up getting some britney spears cds to give on to others.
This is the first sensible argument against cloning I've heard in my entire life.
Yeah, lots of regions have significantly more people than food. We're eating the earth bare, like a collection of locusts, yet the flood continues.
Natural means is making enough children, why ask for more?

They all voted against reproductive human cloning? That position makes no sense! What the hell is going on here?
I think this is why there aren't more computer people in law enforcement. Relax the ban!
If computers ever fails you economically, welcome to law enforcement.
Seriously, law enforcement needs much more of this. I can't name the last time I met a cop who understood computers at all.
Can the clipboarding and pasting be reconfigured?

If my organization is indeed that paranoid, I would insist that document suffer at least a shred(1) if not the destruction of the entire hard disk.
This sounds like a rather half-assed solution.

Now I'm really mad that my brokerage account lacks the enourmous amounts of money to sell short. I'd make a killing on these small minded fools.
It's only BASED on Monty Python scripts, not necesarily performed by them.
Isn't one of them, uh, deceased? I imagine that makes it terribly difficult to perform on stage.

Yeah, good work.
What will they do with all this processing power? Farm it out? Boast? Serve a pr0n company?
According the Bush and his cronies, hacking is terrorism.
This software is arguably hacking.
Does this mean that the software industry is supporting terrorism?

Raising my blood sugar is as simple as a 25 cent cola.
Being able to make my own power in times of trouble would be priceless.
(Especially considering how often the power can suddenly go out where I live.)
Sounds very slippery, as usual.
Any info on WHY they crashed?
The government spooks have seen this and will take very cool products of the market in 3....2...1...
Sounds like they're discussing Internet2, but they definately haven't talked to the experts.
Incidentally, I find most laymen's concept of the internet very funny.
They tend to get about 60 to 90% of the concept....
My mother would certainally benefit from this.
Linux might or might not benefit. On one hand, this is it's chance to lose it's image as a cryptic, nerds-only OS.
On the other, this open linux to AOL people.
Well, grandpa lived to be 89, and I'm anticipating that medicine will distinctly improve in the next 60 years.
