Holy shit.. that dude in the skirt just looks retarded. Seriously.. what's with this guy's fashion sense? He must be a Slashdotter. Perhaps he's even reading this post..
Lonestar is inside RoboMaid and needs access to the self-destruct button. "Hand print identification, please. Hand print identification, please. Hand print.." Yeah, Spaceballs is an awesome movie.
I like NASA. I really do. I mean, they got men to the moon and Voyager passed the damn heliosphere. However, they've grown too big for their own damn good. People expect too much from them. back in the days of the Mercury missions an astronaut would die and we'd be launching again ASAP. These days it takes 3 damn years to even consider getting something back into orbit. What happened to the days of NASA innovation and guts? I'm sure innovations come, but we certainly aren't doing anything cool like going to the moon.
This is where commercial ventures and well-funded "because we can" ventures come in. Smallish entrepreneurs can send missions to space with higher risk levels because they are private. They can produce spacecraft quicker because they are smaller. NASA needs to reorganize itself completely. Do away with a bunch of "fat and happy" positions, reorganize and slim down. Too much damn red tape.
Here's another idea.. do another X Prize-type competition. More money, higher stakes. Seems to have worked last time.
Ya know.. I'm appreciative of MIrrordot for the service they provide, but sometimes it sucks. For instance, linking to a photo gallery without mirroring the fullsize images.:/ A little annoying, but hey.. thanks for what you do anyway!
I have found that quote to be most appropriate in many situations.. your's included. It applies to eating habits, working, playing.. most anything really.
Better yet, zoom out and then recenter the map to somewhere that was on the edge. The map keeps going! We can never run out of space! Man.. Google really is the most awesome company ever. They even made the damn globe bigger!
For lack of a better word.. heard that! I love that little bit of Flash and will watch it every now and again for the nostalgia. I first saw it when I was first becoming an Internet geek and AYBABTU just makes me remember the good 'ole days.. college dorm room, university connection, Napster, et cetera. Good times, indeed!
Come on now.. I've been usign Sarge for at least the last year without any problems. Not to mention I use the so-caleld unstable branch of packages and such. No problems..
I think you and the whole "Jump the Shark" phrase has Jumped the Shark! Quit using that stupid phrase. How the hell does that phrase tell me that something is no longer considered cool?
Slashdot humor value aside, I think it would be a tremendously bad idea to give drivers this sort of inter-car communication. Can you imagine the road rage one would invoke by streaming "FUCK YOU ASSHOLE!" into someone's vehicle instead of a simply giving him the finger? Talk about dangerous freeways.
"Oh my god.. I failed to make myself indispensible to my company and now they're gettnig rid of me! I should strike! That'll teach them!"
Bah.. come on now. If you want job security, start your own damn company. It is fully within IBMs rights to be axing anyone they so please even if it is in the interest of raising profits. A company doesn't need to employ people just ebcause they made $9 billion last year.
Unions are like big complainers. I hate complainers. I mean, unions have their place, but that place is not to bully companies around. That place is to ensure fair wages and treatment for employees.
If such is to be avoided, simply downloading the information contained in a brain is just the beginning. Once you've accomplished that, hard as it may be, you would then need to tackle the ridiculously complex problem of associating things properly. This is far (!!) from trivial.
Secondly, data in a brain does not life make. Conciousness is the all important aspect, generally speaking. We need computers with the ability to think and be aware of themselves. This, too, is far from trivial. Even if we were able to somehow transfer the contents of our brain into a computer, I am skeptical that the same conciousness would arise. So much more makes up life. It's a bit simple to think that we can transfer our brain's data into a computer and live in perpetuity.
However, perhaps by 2050 Google will be doing this for us, too, for a measly price.. kinda like Lasik.
As an asise.. I doubt the author of the article is insinuating that we could truly remain alive.. just that our memories would not die with us. Then again.. I didn't RTFA either.
This is certainly true. There's something about sitting in a bajillion dollar, supersonic aircraft that just gets me all horny.
Seriously, though.. The Air Force may be the slowest to abopt UCAVs. The generals in charge of these types of acquisitions almost certainly have fighter experience and don't wanna see that heritage go by the wayside whereas the Army would love UCAVs.

Hey.. this is America, buddy. Just because we throw a kick-ass party and everyone wants to come doesn't mean everyone is invited. Tough shit.
Yeah.. advertisers are smarter than you think. Try getting the FLashBlock extension and then disable Java. Watch those popups go straight to zero.

Stupid fuck face.. the highest you can score is the 99th percentile. There is nothing higher by definition. God I hate stupid asswipes.
There are over a thousand predictions in the bible. All predictions come true 100%.
I should think so. I mean, they're all in the same book. What else could one expect?

I think it's the one with the smallest disk usage.

because a *NIX browser should be able to handle it, too! I use both Windows and Linux and have no problems with viewing PDFs in either.
No worries.. America hates you.. not your country or fellow countrymen.. just you.. personally.
technically, no.. it cannot be supersonic. however, it can be when measured relative to the speed of sound at 1 Earth atmosphere.

Ya think? Seeming that the F/A-22 has no ability for VSTOL..

Can Google do integrate trigonometric functions? Seriously.. I wanna know. It'll make my Calc III homework so much easier next semester.
