i fondly remember the tick's animated series and although it was awhile ago, there was a superhero who's sole power was wearing a carpet and shuffling around:D
no, it needs to be more secretive than that...
how bout the FFF (3x6th letter)
regardless, we should have a slashdot competition to see who can hide 666 the best way, be it in like... binary or heaven knows what (pun intended)
what we really need is to have a world wide identification system, that is also tied to a universal screenname/email etc. also, this should be the sole form of credit currency. this chip should be placed in the skin, preferably on the forhead or hand.
we shall call it... the mark of the best!!!
(note, while im kinda making this a light hearted jab, i realized in all honesty that its not a happy matter for the people that will still be on the earth when this is inacted)
i just bought over 1300$ worth of stuff from newegg and i had a wishlist/cart going for well over 4 months. on top of that i could share and 'post' it with others! while i know computer building usually entails saving and buying when something new comes out, i realize newegg needs to base its system around that form, but everywhere else can benifit from this as well
hmmm, yeah, i guess your right, you seem to know FAR more about me, than even i do
i own 2 macs and i would have my first gaming pc, but my motherboard is shot and im sending it back.
apple's top of the line flagship tower can't play doom 3, and regardless of if its bad code or whatnot doesn't matter. abandoning a gaming pc for a 'gaming' mac is stupid right now, no matter how gaming obsessed you are
hate to rain on your parade, but even apple's top of the line g5's aren't really gaming worthy.
if you aiming at wow, than yes, i haven't heard anything bad (blizzard does a great job) but just scrounge up reviews of doom 3 *shudder*
also, you need mac edition gpus:(
so you can't pop in whatever your using and call it good
the main problem here is as follows. there are so many different aspects of christianity. there are many people on this earth that while they believe Jesus is the son of God and died and rose for our sins, they can have a different view on any number of other topics. this can be brought on by their culture or how they were tought, to what they haven't learned or looked into.
what does this mean?
you can ask any christion these questions and get any number of answers. i was there at a point, i would know. it wasn't too long ago that i had no idea how to defend my faith in a scientific way. christiantity has abandoned science due to old doctrin and a proceved lack of importance. that is why you get people saying (in reference to the bones) "it tests your faith!" type of statements.
anyway, the creationist's trump card is the flood
why is the gographic table so mixed up, all over the world? why are bones jumbled all over the place? why do the bones appear to be in a slow evolutionary step up from 'un-evolved' to the more complex species? sure evolutionry therory could explain this, but so could a world wide flood as mentioned in genisis.
as the flood waters pulled in, what would be the first to drown/get covered by mud and debris? the slower animals. things like squid and 'lower lifeforms' may be small and slow, but they are by no means less complex. all the geological column shows is a trend of smaller slower animals down low all the way up to larger more advanced animals.
further more, how are there massive sheets of rock that are said to be of an older era than the rock directly underneith them? the rock is dated by the lifeforms found in them (for the most part, i am well aware of the few sloppy methods of radio dating) using the proceved time it would take to evolve, while the creatures themselves are dated by the strata they are found in! also take note, that for the most part, most of the fish and other animals we have found in the lower levels of rock are still alive today.
anyway, im sure ill be ripped apart for the lack of spell check or heaven knows what else. in reality im an 18 year old kid wasting away art class. i've read many heated debates and books on this but hell, im still learning! sure, some of you will say 'this type of though is dangerous' or whaever else you can use to belittle me, or put down my faith that i have every right to have, but ultimately there is just as much evidence supporting evolution as creationism (with out being bias) and neither one will ever be proven. i haven't checked down the other threads here, but there are 800+ if i remmeber correctly. this is obviously a very heated topic for many people, please keep an open mind, and realise that not everything you read in national geographic is truth. try reading from both parties and find a middle ground, because both sides have valid and logical explinations. sure some of the creationist's story relies on devine events, but really, how much more faith is needed to go from "all the matter ever simply came into exhistance" to "God which came into exhistance, made all the matter"?
while im not a crazy audio philie, the psp does have a decent music player (with a very large ability to build on with more updates) but for the long and distant future, nobody will have a memorystick based (or really any other flash card) mp3 player, simply because of memory density/cost. i agree its a good time wasting one, but for most of the time, people will be playing movies for long periods of time.
2 side notes. first off, its confirmed that very shortly, psp's will be able to play mp3s in the background while playing games and second, i have no idea why they didn't give it a micro hdd. even as an add on with an expansion slot, it wouldn't have added THAT much room, and would have made its utility much higher than anything else
i was reading about something like this in popular science and was kinda suspicious of it, but reading this, i think that since the car's onboard computer (running windows) is whats calculating traffic conditions / weather / etc that it actually wouldn't be that bad. it would just be something that truly runs in the background that the driver doesn't need to deal with.
with this, gps and the ability to communicate with oncoming traffic lights, i really do think that this is an improvement. and as popsci said, our transportation grid will start acting in an efficient, biological manner
i agree fully. from an evolutionary stand point we're screwing our genetics over giving people what they don't deserve. and as usual, it only goes to the rich instead of the untapped minds of the poor:(
Slashdot Mirror
its the animals fault they haven't joined our navy and offered their lives as dolphin bombs or tuna scouts... oh... wait
couldn't agree with you more
i fondly remember the tick's animated series and although it was awhile ago, there was a superhero who's sole power was wearing a carpet and shuffling around :D
the big thing in panther was email (and url's) as objects where you can drag and drop, or pull-down menu them...
nah, all you need is a lead cup
now we need a way to simulate skynet, pending its future release

no matter how good of an idea it is, something thats been used for hundred of years won't change out of convenane, thats just the way it is
but heck, im all for metric time
i agree fully. from an evolutionary stand point we're screwing our genetics over giving people what they don't deserve. and as usual, it only goes to the rich instead of the untapped minds of the poor :(
i would say that your only surefire bet is prostitution... its the world's oldest profession for a reason
