    ... in a fire? Pretty please?

    ... and yet they thought "key lime pie" was too unfamiliar?

    Well played, Godfather... Well played...

    Perfect example of patents stifling progress instead of encouraging it.

    There is. Google would have told you in 5 seconds or less.

    No, it is not.

    If you're resistant to clicking the link, it's a funny nickname for koalas, implying that they are (as a joke, because they are not) vicious horror-movie terrors that ambush unsuspecting tourists by dropping on to them from the canopy.

  7. Re:Hey on Pastafarian Wins Battle To Wear Colander In License Photo · · Score: 2

    Don't for get the deists, who (from my understanding) believe there is some kind of higher power but nothing more specific than that. Kind of like agnostic-lite.

    Some may consider this lazy or shallow - but I reply with this question: don't you think it's a little presumptuous of you to claim to have any kind of understanding of a power that is, by definition, beyond your comprehension?

  8. Re:How are the "DSP" datas PROCESSED? on Great White Shark RFID/Satellite Tracking Shows Long Journeys, Many Beach Visits · · Score: 1

    Next time make the puns less spammy. It reads like a real spam!

    No kidding. That's just irresponsible. But nope, can't say "fuck" on the radio because THINK OF THE CHILDREN!

    Strictly speaking, the center of the observable universe has no correlation to the actual center of the actual universe - presuming such a thing exists.

  13. Re:Those are also signs of having a baby. on PTSD-Monitoring App Captured the Psychological Effects of the Boston Bombing · · Score: 2

    I think having a child and having PTSD kind of goes together.

  14. Re:With further development ... on UW Researchers Demonstrate First Direct Communication Between Human Brains · · Score: 1

    I think this requires you to pick up signals from the originator's motor cortex. I don't know anything about the syndrome, so unless there is something to pick up you're not going to get anywhere.

    That said there could be signals, and they just don't go anywhere or are not strong enough... in which case I bet you could get it to work.

    The reverse might help too! By making the cortex do things, it does them, and consider brain plasticity...

  15. Re:Prerecorded impulses? on UW Researchers Demonstrate First Direct Communication Between Human Brains · · Score: 2

    I know you're being funny, but I wonder... sure, you're telling the motor cortex to do something... but it's still doing it. I wonder if this "trains" it the same way as doing it voluntarily would.

  16. Re:The Internal Revenue Service has a similar tool on UW Researchers Demonstrate First Direct Communication Between Human Brains · · Score: 1

    Do it enough times and you'll start finding out just how many of those goose also have guns.

    Yes, because the magnetic fields emitted by a cell phone are in any way comparable to those used by TMS...

    "Religion of Peace" indeed... if that's true.

    Gassing civilians is not "politics."

  22. Re:Here we go... on US Forces Ready To Strike Syria If Ordered · · Score: 1

    Then the answer, presuming that is what is going on, is to come down on both "sides."

  23. Re: How? on New, Canon-Faithful Star Trek Series Is In Pre-Production · · Score: 1

    You searched for "rotten tomato" not "RT" - there's a difference. How the hell should I have known that's what it signified?

    What?

    I've not watched many episodes and probably won't, but this sounds interesting. Can you tell me a bit more or point me in the right direction?
