One wonders why these literal rocket scientists didn't just get a software programmable Linux or PalmOS based wrist-computer and hack together a Mars-time display application into it?
Maybe it's because they've got better things to do with their time?
Launchers? No no no... we'll be skipping the robots next. Perhaps we can develop self-powered skipping robots that, once initially thrown, will continue indefinitely. They may even be steerable. How that's for a competition?
But you can exchange it for another copy, and the store is left with a useless plastic disc. And I'm sure they'll let the manufacturer know about that.
Yeah, that's called execution. And you can't execute everyone, because then who's going to support your country (the game)?
I don't think what you're describing is very surprising. Most people just want to live their lives/play their games, and don't care too much about the politics of it all.
Well then, a lot of kids are pretty stupid for drinking things that they don't understand. Maybe if they educated themselves about DXM, they would realize not to drink cough syrups with other chemicals in them (eg. acetaminophen). This is a matter of education, not control. Though it's not like the information isn't plentiful online anyways.
I'm running Winamp 5.0beta2 and it's rather nice. All the features of Winamp 2 + all the features of Winamp 3 = Winamp 5. That means all the fancy skins, plus all the video support and everything else.
You can get it here if you want to try it out, though it is an *unofficial* release. Works great, though.
Now that's just absurd. The GPL is unconstitutional?!? The Constitution doesn't even have anything to do with copyright. How can anyone take this guy seriously?
Slashdot Mirror
...but unless all of the devices worn on it are bulletproof...
So... you're going to walk around with X-boxes hanging under your coat?
Maybe it was just that time of the month. ;)
Or maybe this one:

"I did punch a baby once... in anger. In my defence, the baby was being kind of a dick."
I never thought I'd hear "MS-DOS" in the same sentence as "powerful" and "technical."

hah, you DON'T want to price electronic components at Radio Shack. They're so insanely expensive you might as well burn your money for light instead.
You make good points. Because, as we all know, life is all about impressing women.
Yeah, but it's the game. Subtle difference.

Since when is RFID a verb? That doesn't even make sense.
I dread the day that B'gle returns.
With genetic engineering, we can make new and even better species to make up for those lost to global warming!
Who would have thought that these two 'issues' would solve each other.
It was obviously Picard.
Uh, by which I mean, they cost more.
Yeah yeah, preview is my friend.
You must not like movies very much.
Movies cost the same amount to go see whether it's just one gigantic advertisement for Preperation H or an actual movie with plot.
Actually, they cost less. I think prices have at least doubled in the past several years, while advertising has increased. "Go figure."
I doubt you could even tell me (without looking) what the current advertisment on your Slashdot page is for.
I doubt I could too, since I have it blocked. Mua ha ha!
Maybe that's just unwelcome foresight on behalf of the card manufacturer. ;)

They'll just shut your character off.

Oh wait, I guess nobody does. I hope.
That gives me an idea.
Thermometer + Webcam.
If you use a digital thermometer, throw in some OCR software so you can add some automation.
Words change. Get used to it.
