  1. 3-D won't take off as a serious tech until.... on World's First Integrated Twin-Lens 3D Camcorder · · Score: 2, Funny

    3-D won't take off as a serious tech until two way brain computer interfaces are as commonplace as cell phones are today. No one want's to have to deal with 3-D that requires you wear glasses or contact lenses or what not, it would be more easily accepted if you could just stream the data to your visual cortex along with all of the other sensations that "realistic fantasy reality" entails.

    Flittery jittery images in bulky headache producing glasses that appears somewhat 3-D won't compare to simulated optic nerve data being fed by a computer.

    I will wait for the iBrain or the iMind before I go "Full 3-D".

    Volatile Chemicals like sulfides and chlorofluorocarbons which are not found AT ALL in nature are one thing, gases that are also produced by nature from critters like CO2 are quite another.

    Stop Sulfide and CFLs, give a rats ass about CO2 unless it start approaching 2% of the atmospheric composition.

    All people in Minnesota just need to surrender the carbon in their bodies at the border and the problem will be solved. IF they can return to the border to go back into the state they can have their bodily carbon back and it is up to them to get it back into their bodies.

    How far could the spec be pushed using a decent CD-ROM laser. Could you squeeze 1GB out of a CD drive that was specked to 700MB before?

  11. Galactic Voids.... on Giant Black Hole At Milky Way's Core Stays Slim · · Score: 1

    I think I figured out WHY there are galactic voids. The voids used to full of Galaxies ie. "The Missing Mass" that no one could find. If a galaxy's black hole gets too big it triggers the collapse of the Galaxy in question into a violent Quasar and it disappears from this universe within a few million years. The Mass is then removed from this universe as it tunnels itself into a another universal where it expands into it's own "Big Bang". The mass that is constantly being removed makes it appear the expansion of the universe is accelerating. Of course this process weeded out 90% of the Galaxies that were formed after the big bang and we are one of the few lucky survivors.. These survivors ended up with galactic black holes that were big enough to "throw off enough mass" to prevent them from going "critical mass" which would remove them and their host galaxies from the universe.

    There, I have just solved the "Missing Mass", "Accelerating Expansion of the Universe", and "Dark Matter" problems in cosmology, I would like my prize now.

    The only conspiracy in 9/11 besides the Islamic Radical one to fly buildings into planes was a "Conspiracy of Incompetence" amongst the many federal agencies that could have done something to prevent it. Most all the hijackers wre here on EXPIRED VISAS. Where the hell was ICE on enforcing this? Instead of creating the "Department of Homeland Insecurity" they should have fired and removed the pensions of those who ignored the warnings of those below them and promote those who were warning their superiors to the jobs of those fired. Fire the incompetent boobs that let it happen and blacklist them from ever getting another government job again in their lives.

    After 9/11 there should have been several hundred people in the CIA and FBI walking out of the government buildinds with their possessions in boxes and their resumes on monster.
