Instead, I wonder when major hard disk manufacturers will start releasing drives with a clear top cover option?
I'd guess that HD manufacturers haven't produced any window-modded drives yet because:
There aren't any easy ways (yet) to show off your modded drive aside from leaving it sit outside the case hanging by cables, and
even if people wanted to leave them dangling outside of their case or make their own enclosures for them - the drives would be more likely to fail due to their likelihood of being knocked around, etc. thus increasing returns/RMAs
It would be cool though to see a 'gaming-' or 'extreme-' series of drives from a manufacturer, containing windows on the top and black-light reactive drive arms/heads; assuming that someone comes up with a practical way of displaying the drives outside of the case.
Has anyone else also noticed the increase in personal drama and more plots that are focused on emotion and intra-crew arguments in all of the current so-called "Science"-fiction TV shows?
Most of them are like soap operas now, perhaps there is a relationship...
There are 5 billion people that live in countries poorer than Mexico-and a big chunk of Mexico's population would come to the US if they had the chance(and a lot are here already).
Reminds me of one of Sailer's articles, something like this one. Sailer and others on VDARE are always worth a good read.
The researchers have now shown that by teasing nanotubes away from one side of a forest and attaching them to a strip of sticky tape they can draw the nanotubes into a continuous sheet.
Umm, surely this must be totally over-simplifying what they -really- do..
"Prosecutors and privacy experts say that what America needs is a coordinated national strategy."
Ha! Good luck trying to encourage that. Our government's collective coordination can't currently poor piss out of a boot that had instructions on the bottom.
I've seen a few keyloggers (IK keylogger for instance) that log the current window/item focus, e.g.

Trying to use random positions helps, but it's not really going to stop someone who feels like following the path and piecing the password together.
The 2029 near-collision is a warning shot regarding American's immigration problem.
Take a look at this projected immigration graph: http://numbersusa.com/overpopulation/posters.html
In 2029 the "domestic" Americans will be just crossing their maximum point, and if we cannot figure the situation out after that, god will swing back around in 2036 or so when everything is out of control, and completely annilate his pathetic creation and start over.

to do specific tasks such as produce hydrogen or ethenol.
Hydrogen maybe, but ethanol? Why not just use yeast?

I agree with you wholeheartedly. If only more of /. thought this way we could have an army =)
