So, has there ever been a centralized database where people enter their health problems and can be observed an analyzed for patterns?
I signed in, entered some health information (asthma!) and some prescriptions I take (albuterol, advair!), some basic info (white male), but did not enter my age, nor any doctors I use or places I've visited.
A lot of prior posters appear to be "ooogidy boogidy" over nothing.
I figured they went with an antiquated webapp, and since most people can handle PERL, the likeliest candidate was Cold Fusion, which no one really practices/knows anymore.
The solution to Daylight Savings Time is to just go a half hour in whatever "direction" we need to go for whatever locations, then lock that time in as THE new time, and abolish any future changes. That way developers of this generation still get a ton of new work, and we're at the appropriate average.

"When I see a solar eclipse, like the one I went to last year in Hawaii, I think 'Oh no! Is the moon eating the sun?' I don't know. Because I'm a caveman -- that's the way I think."
eBay just revised their costs. They advertise reduced insertion fees (which were minimal reductions at best) and free gallery pics (even though there are many free image hosts out there such as imageshack ). The problem is that they didn't advertise that they increased the final value fees. This is a disservice to the seller and is the reason why many add a large handling fee to recoup costs by overvalued shipping. Additionally, I'm under the impression that eBay owns PayPal. For an eBay Transaction paid through PayPal, you get hit for an insertion fee, a final value fee, and a money transfer fee. Understandably, the credit card processors charge this, but if the money is coming from someone's bank account, there shouldn't be as much of a fee from PayPal, yet it's still there.
Paypal and eBay should revise their stances on eBay transactions; there should be a discounted value or a reduced final value fee from eBay (or a reduced money transfer cost from PayPal) if the payer is paying expressly for an eBay auction. I think this would push more sellers to focus on PayPal as their payment processor.
Meanwhile, getting back on topic...
I've received 3 bad feedbacks as a buyer.
- Negative Feedback 1: I won the item for too cheap and the seller refused to send it or give me any checkout information.
- Negative Feedback 2: OK, I fucked up and bid on 2 identical items and won both, so I didn't pay the guy and told him he should second-chance it. I didn't give him any feedback. He gave me a negative that I deserved.
- Neutral Feedback: I posted POSITIVE feedback against one idiot seller who I received an item from; He posted that I never paid him and he felt "too good that day" to post Negative Feedback, so he posted Neutral. I responded with the Paypal ID for the monetary transaction and it turned out he had me confused with another buyer. We mutually revoked the feedback, but there was no way to change it into a Positive Feedback, and now my feedback account always notes that I have a revoked feedback.
It's as though the reviewer only played 25% of the way through. He does not go into any of the online elements, which include playing the hourglass battle games online vs random competitors or via friend codes, he doesn't go into the item-trading aspects, nor is discussed the ship customization collect-a-thon. I'm very disappointed that none of the online aspects were referenced in this review.
The Godfather : Blackhand Edition for the Wii had choking (requiring you to shake the controls vigorously in a throat-grab position), garrote usage (requiring you to use the Wiimote and nunchuk to simulate looping the garrote around a neck and pulling it taut), gratuitous use of the word "Fuck!" and dancing call girls, in addition to being able to violently murder innocent bystanders in a variety of ways. Not entirely sure why Manhunt 2 was so outstanding, except that it was produced by Rockstar Games, and not EA.

That was one of the first few things someone told me when I moved here.
Another one was, "I'll take your picture for you, folks."
Never did get that camera back.
Planktos went under, but didn't Climos take it's place?
Iron seeding. Generates algae blooms and feeds the fish and sucks down carbon.
Riverablo.
Zuckerberg's famous pig! Patent hog.
I guess my girlfriend and I will have to resign ourselves to making passersby uncomfortable in the mall.
... with our plastic consuming bacteria!

Just like the blind programmer from Sneakers had!

Cold Fusion.

The Inputbots wage their battles to destroy the evil forces of the Displayicons.
Heh. My auction page views actually have skyrocketed from 5 to 100 in just a few hours. Search for "E-meter"; I'm the one selling comic books.
To use the word "e-meter". Man, that'll drive up hits! Hopefully Scientologists won't whack them though.
they now reference the words "e-meter" and "Scientology". That should drive some sales and page views.

Slow News Day at Slashdot if you're covering something that was announced almost a year ago.
