Radio waves are too long and "fat" in frequency (radio = low end of light thinger). Then micro waves, then IR, then good ol' ROYGBIV, then UV (which can be harmful due to its higher frequency), X-ray (small enough to get through most cells in your body, ohnoes), and gamma rays, which are so high in frequency that it is considered deadly radiation. Gamma rays can get through even the densest materials in our bodys.
On the other hand, Spongebob might need to start worrying about radio waves with those big spongey holes and all.;)
I have the same problem. I do better forging signatures than my own damn one. I wonder how Bush does it, signing all those new laws. I mean, they're so perfect!
Yeah, I'm pretty sure we had almost the same exact conversation and comparison of guns, cars, and P2P networks the last time P2P was threatened by the government. Let's hear some new arguments for once, people...
Don't quote me on this (seriously, because if you do, I will cut you), but I thought Microsoft was migrating to XML usage for a lot of their proprietary formats finally. I think it's a good idea, but then again, what if they patent their XML formats?
Yeah, just letting you know that XML is actually going somewhere.
With Doom 3 coming out in, oh, 2 days, maybe I'll be able to run it on 640x480 (with an nVidia GeForce 6800 Ultra) with all settings on low, but it's definitely a big maybe. Anyone got some deals on 2 GB packs of Corsair DDR400 RAM? Or perhaps my own personal Japanese guy to tweak my computer to run Doom 3 a little higher?
I'd also recommend that you don't feed your computer. Computers are _inatimate_objects_, not to be confused with pets that need food and water. I know you might think you'll get an extra MHz or 2, but that food is _really_ unneccessary...
I tried using a CPU temperature probe to monitor my overclocking, but due to bad worksmanship (AKA pure shittiness), it fried my $400 P4C 3.0 GHz processor.;_;
Aren't normal projectors already as expensive as decent LCD monitors? This sounds too rich for my blood, or my children's blood, or my grandchildren's blood,...
Now that broadband is a cheap commodity and it isn't hard to get a high-end PC that can run pretty much any game as of now, Internet Cafes are becoming more and more useless. Sure, they are sometimes helpful when you're on the go, but that is also solved by notebooks, PDAs, and cell phones.
Who remembers the good ol' days hanging out at Internet Cafes, playing LAN games with friends, browsing with "super-fast" internet speeds, and just overall hanging out at those places? It was great!
They might've found one way to prevent the auto-download, but there are still plenty of ways to force a download using ActiveX. Even with that, there are still a few ways to run them too; methods that are still unknown to most assholes trying to get you to buy their pills that give you bigger penis-breasts-ego-wallet-spyware-car-wife-mom-WMDs .
By simply not signing up for every random site you see and possibly using sites like DodgeIt to prevent your normal email from being spammed, you have a high chance of staying clean. Besides, many spam filters are getting good at keeping your inbox clean; I particularly like the one on Thunderbird.
That CD protection software doesn't sound like malware, but more like a step behind in programming by using proprietary software. Hopefully one day we can rid ourselves of proprietary things and get to using standards. I bet those CD decryptor programs are Windows-only also. Blargh...

You should check out Thunderbird if you get that much spam. @_@
How dare you post my computer specs without permission!
*ahem*
I'll admit it too. I was very confused as to how an image could block outside connections to a WiFi access point.
Wait a sec...
*goes to patent idea*
It's called a password. Also works well with 128-bit encryption found in 802.11g lately. I wonder what encryption method this wallpaper uses...
Yeah, but you have to use the "Stretch" feature which distorts the look so badly, it's like peering into Goatse's anus.

Did anyone read "Semantic" as "Semitic"? I almost thought that the Internet went Jewish on us.

I'm drooling now, hold me.

There are a lot better meds than Prozac. I personally enjoy the drug "alcohol", but that isn't recommended for people with severe asshat syndrome.
They should also patent the color blue for obvious reasons...
