    i dont know, maybe im the one missing something, but it seems to me that this is pretty cool. they are connecting to rods and cones, not plugging into a usb port. good lord, man, what do you want? its in development. how is it low tech to be interfacing electronics into the human retina?

  12. Re:Surely the sticker should be on ALL textbooks on Creationist Textbook Stickers Declared Unconstitutional · · Score: 1

    okay, so i read a little further down. it would seem that my definition of 'evolution' was wrong. based on this you are correct. i would like to note this as probably the first time ever someone on slashdot has admitted that they were wrong, but thats just a hypothesis with no real basis other than general observation.

  13. Re:Surely the sticker should be on ALL textbooks on Creationist Textbook Stickers Declared Unconstitutional · · Score: 1

    holy crap.

    first of all, we can observe that the earth goes around the sun. fact.
    we can also observe that matter is made from atoms. we can even split them. fact.
    i would also imagine that we can prove that electron movement is electricity.

    so, how are these anything like evolution? how is it established as much as any of these three things that can be observed?

  14. Re:Thank God! on Creationist Textbook Stickers Declared Unconstitutional · · Score: 1

    i am a christian, but i can very much see all of your points. in fact, i agree for the most part. while i believe that i am right, i dont feel the need to cram it down everyones throats. you have your right to believe what you want, too.

    my problem with this sticker crap is that i dont see anything about religion on it. i dont even see anything about creation. it would seem to me that all it does is say "take a scientific approach to this theory". how is that unscientific in any way?

    No. sorry, but i bet not once single person i know would have any clue what DRM even is. you are making the exact mistake you accuse the parent of your post of: just because you know what it is, doesnt mean that mr. public does. very few people have any idea what drm is. for instance, ask them if they can copy their new LOTR dvd with a regular dvd burner. i bet they say 'yeah, why not?'

  25. Re:Not awesome? on Walmart Offers Sub-$500 laptop With Linspire · · Score: 4, Insightful
    Really you can pay $200 more for a laptop that goes three times as fast and lasts twice as long. Or pay double and get something that lasts 4 times as long. I really don't see any advantage to buying this laptop. A used celeron laptop would probably be a better deal if you absolutely can't spend more than $500 on a laptop
    you point is valid. however, i dont have $1300 for a good laptop. if all i needed was a mobile machine to do day to day stuff with, this would definitely do it for me. everybody knows that to a point, you get more for paying more. buy a 24pk of coke and its $.02/oz cheaper than the 12pks. hell, if you told dell you wanted 100 of those laptops you suggest, youd probably get them even cheaper! oh right, you probably dont have $120,000.

    its all a matter of perspective. to some people that want/need a laptop but dont need a lot of power, cheaper is always better. also, i think there is something about $500 for a laptop. people see that to get a dell desktop is about $500, but to get a walmart laptop ('hey, walmart is a well-known brand' they think to themselves) is now the same price. okay, maybe you need the $550 model to get windows to make that a little more fair. my point is that $500 for a laptop is mad cheap, regardless of the quality. that amount of money has not gotten you a laptop new for some time(if ever). the battery life is terrible, however, ill give you that.

    well, crap. i typed all that and just now saw your recommendation for a used celeron. that is a viable solution, theres a 1ghz dell on ebay for $400 right now.
