If you use a matter-antimatter reaction to accelerate a mass of any size at 1 Earth gravity for 1 Earth year, it will reach almost exactly the speed of light as it completes total conversion from mass to energy.
Freecycle is a neat community giveaway-fest run through localized Yahoo groups. I live in a town of 100,000 and the Freecycle group has 700 members. I've given away old monitors, tables, couches, even a car. I got a nice little dual-proc server. Right now I'm paring down what I have for an upcoming move, but it's a great place to get free stuff. I see bedframes, dressers, computers, bikes, clothes, it makes dumpster-diving obsolete.
Despite what you say, they are just bouncing off each other. The modulus of elasticity is high, and because of the shape of the objects they can only contact at one point. The magnet pulls them together and they bounce apart, the point of contact possibly traveling along the curve of the objects depending on how much energy remains. They might maintain a semi-constant tone because this contact point travels to where the mass of the objects is less, at the ends, allowing them the bounce apart at the same frequency despite energy being absorbed in the material.
You know, the "woman of your life" could be interpreted as "your mother." Or perhaps "the SUV-driving soccer mom who runs you down like a stray dog as you cross the street after your car breaks down in the rain and you have to walk two miles in your worst shoes."
I just discovered a bug/feature on the TI-85! If you do a full backup from another calculator or computer, you can have the PROGRAM commands set to arbitrary memory locations! This means that we can now run fast custom assembly language routines on calculators.
Well, I don't get that with Firefox on Windows XP, though if I set the user agent to IE 6, I can see the message you describe. If I set the user agent to Opera, I still don't get the message. Is your user agent set to IE right now?
No clouding the motives there, michael, that's for sure. I guess the man just itches for a good 'ol flamewar once in a while, so why not start one right in the article post?
Right. DVD players will be enclosed in seamless 0.5 inch titanium. Once you put a DVD in, the box locks up tight. On completing the movie, the disc is ground to a powder and ejected into a waste container.
A great site I've run across is fpga4fun.com. The guy who runs the site has designed and built several really neat little FPGA prototyping boards, and has some great step-by-step tutorials for doing things like generating video signals, reading optical encoders, using Ethernet, etc. You'll probably be sad you got a Spartan IIE just to play around, since he has a great little Altera board for just $50. However I do have a Spartan IIE from Digilent and the code principles are virtually the same.
I have a tablet PC, and set up dualboot. I agree that it is like installing Linux on a Powerbook. Windows XP Tablet PC Edition is the closest thing to usable for tablet PCs, and all useful tablet applications are written for it. There is absolutely no contest when compared to Linux. However, I can use Linux for some things that Windows can't do, so I convert to laptop mode and use it as a normal Linux laptop.
If you plan to use Linux exclusively on a Tablet PC, you are wasting a lot of money.
Phantom, the rumors, etc, this IS the game. Just look at all the entertainment we've gotten out of it. You'll go buy the console and open up the box and there will be a nice note thanking you for playing.
How many of us give half of a crap about any of the above? How many of us think that everything should stay exactly the same as it was when we were kids, except it never was that way because we're just looking back through a nostalgia filter?
What are the odds? Two people in this great world, both of whom worked for John Dove, both of whom are Slashdot members, and both of whom posted the same post at exactly the same time?

But the real clue? Her spandex bodysuit.
As true as that may be, I have difficulty believing that robots will ever approach a human's efficiency at killing humans.
We wouldn't want it watching the paper and learning "rock, scissor, human" instead.

Weird huh?

I don't have any so I can't verify this theory.
What college, so I can make a note never to send my kids there?
Such an indignant and well-written post, all to satisfy that secret urge to use "git" in a sentence that isn't spoken by a storybook cowhand.

Think of it this way: the player KNOWS what sound is coming out of its own speakers.
Therefore everything else is either noise or a voice command.
The study's gone on long enough, we need to see the results now.
(death knell for any research scientist)
Fusion.
I assume that your feet were just sweating out pigments from your boots or socks, otherwise we'd call you Stubby, right?

Yeah, I know, this is pretty dang old news.
I even modded mine to have an LED and a port for standard 0.1" headers with access to power and the serial connection.
No, it's not hilarious, it's actually pretty lame. The kind of stuff that was too dumb to make it into a college newspaper.
It's just like when the Garfield strip lost all ambition, and every strip thereafter is "Bored. (next panel). ZZzzzzz. (next panel). I'm bored, Odie."
