What they really need is to broadcast a "vibrate mode request". By default, phones that receive this signal go into vibrate mode. Install it in theaters, etc. Of course, there'll be an option in the menus to ignore this request. But I honestly believe that people don't do it just to annoy other people. They're just forgetful sometimes. Any asshole in the theater will always be able to annoy you one way or another if that's their explicit goal ("Back in my day, we didn't have fancy cellphone ringtones to piss people off, we had to talk loudly during the movie and throw popcorn at the screen").
I know from experience that if you put 200V across the pins of a microchip, there can certainly be explosive consequences. I don't personally have the expertise to say whether this potential difference could be caused by EMP, however (my guy says yes... I guess it's more a question of how strong an EMP is required to produce such an effect for an entire villiage). If it really is EMP, I'd expect people's fillings to become uncomfortable too.
Interesting... they may be brilliant, but they are also responsible for coming up with a bunch of approximations that don't match reality completely. Therefore I propose that the concept of god is a mathematical approximation to reality.... something I'd be willing to accept as an agnostic.
Sounds like you're talking about a conspiracy to sell textbooks. Everytime they discover a new one... whoops, gotta buy the new edition.... bastard publishers.
In fairness, I wasn't actually trying to correct his grammar. I just misread his post and found amusement in my blunder. In the future, however, I'll keep all my spontaneous half-thought comments to meself.
Obviously MS is trying to stifle competition in it's porn empire by blocking other porn sites. Now, let me get back to browsing the CarnalKnowledgeBase.
Unless you have three eyes, you'll never see more than two views at the same time. I wish people would stop complaining about how steroscopic isn't "real". If you can walk around the thing and the steroscopic pairs change accordingly, how is that different from reality?
What? A student who doesn't blindly believe anything their teacher/professor/typing tutor tells them? Blasphemy!
If you are going to make a factual claim, you should be able and willing to back it up with a modicum of evidence. If you have time to get into a stupid flame war with me, then you have time to provide a reference.
I am just expecting you to back up your claim. One example is all it would take, but since you keep sidestepping the issue, it's obvious that you can't support your statement.

Dude, some people view slashdot while eating naked.
Lisa, I'd like to buy your rock.

don't forget a "the sun"

Mmmm... semi-autonomous constriction humans. It's almost pornographic.
Yeah, Californians never riot when they feel opressed.... oh wait, nevermind
They don't have breaks? You just keep driving until you hit a tree?
Most? Which nation has more firepower than America? Atlantis and extraterrestrial federations don't count.

Still waiting for the firmware revision huh?
My choice would definitely be the Encyclopedia Galactica... unless of course you could consider the Hitchhiker's Guide to be an encyclopedia.
I don't know about you, but I only take a couple minutes to recharge after a lapdance.

"Why is is called a BACK-slash?"
"Well, cause it's leaning backwards"
"Then why isn't the other one a FORWARD-slash?"
And don't even get me started on bang and hash.
Wait, so today Slashot is considering one poster's opinion to be that of the entire community? I'm confused.

ok, so the answer is "no I don't have any references or proof whatsoever".
It's called the "technical tap". Also useful to quiet annoying coworkers.
So you'll finally be able to store your 60 second, 1118 kHz, 128 bit sampled ringtone.
