  2. Re:with what? on China Releases 2nd generation MIPS Chip · · Score: 1

    is the grand parent post from a video game where you play against/as China or real life?

  3. Re:SPIN SPIN SPIN! on China Releases 2nd generation MIPS Chip · · Score: 1

    you think the Chinese will get into the drm thing?

    it seems like they would given the whole communist thing and that firewall they've put up, but on the other hand it seems like one of those things they'd build a workaround for (think new system style "workaround" not a hardware mod)

  15. Re:Definition of wirehead on FDA OKs Brain Pacemaker for Depression · · Score: 1

    i sincerely hope that this new device is applied only to people who need it and aren't adverse to such things..

    but anyway, the type of addiction you mention is also bad because it keeps them from really doing anything whether positive or negative. kind of a waste of life really

    i'd be most worried about what it does to your eyes, apparently not much if you don't have contacts/glasses on since they didn't really mention it.

    or a material that's reflective at 95ghz
    with goggles that filter it of course (can they make those? i've seen them for lasers, but idk if that's possible in this range)

    also of interest, it only penetrates 1/64 of an inch or .397mm, so you could wear something that absorbs it, but that might get a little warm (although it says they don't leave the emitter on too long so nobody recieves permanent damage)

    i installed a gentoo/os9 dual boot on my dad's ibook, and the right click is that extra enter button by the space bar with the middle click being fn+alt. thank goodness the screen is to small (800x600) to use drawing programs that take advantage of all three buttons
