No no, this is about actual enlightenment. Gautama Buddha will lecture from your cellphones built-in speakers, educating you and everyone else around you about the noble eightfold path, as you travel by train and cab.
Hah. They used to say that Linux is slowly approaching the quality of Windows. Now I know the opposite is the case. Windows is approaching the quality of Linux, all by itself.
Hackers, do nothing, just wait! Our favorite operating system will become faster and less error prone than Windows all by itself!
I really love Ubuntu updates for that reason. Their update service is like that colonial england servant you dreamed of having but could never afford. Even if it updated the kernel, it humbly suggests a restart, serves earl grey and quietly retreats.
How on earth can the entire command staff of the Enterprise be that young? They don't require people to have serious experience (time in the field) before they can get to positions of that much responsibility?
An adolescent captain just looks wrong...
i agree. a captain that young is just going to make life harder for your average joe redshirt;)
after all, star trek has taught me that leadership figures have to be balding, with gray hair. Who am i to question a work of fiction?
Now if i only knew whether McCain liked earl grey (hot). Then I would be sure.
If someone can't even manage to keep their own space functional, then how can they handle the other aspects of life?
Judging from this argumentation: if the reason why your tidying your room is the result of fear of being held incompetent to manage your daily affairs, I would say you fit very well to the articles description of a conservative.
See, I am more the kind of guy who rarely cleans up. Yet when I do, I enjoy it tremendously. A messed up space gives me an opportunity to prove my talent for organization, to bring things to order. But there has to be a mess first, or else there is nothing to take care of. Keeping your space tidy is easy and boring. Letting it slide and then cleaning up is a creative job, it is far more challenging. I can say that this approach has led me to manage daily affairs a lot better, especially when they are messy.
In germany, "England" is often regarded as equivalent to "Great Britain". I think this might have led to the kind of misunderstandings you find in the original post.
there is an algorithm which beautifies humans since ages, it's called evolution.
compare images of people a few centuries back to images of people from today, and you will see that genes are just as good building an average out of multiple faces.
so don't be scared about this kind of technology, it's just showing us what we will look like in the future, given that people all over the world continue to fornicate across borders.

MIT professor Amy B. Smith won the marquis Leadership Award for her work on building simple, low-cost technology to help developing countries.
what do you use for developing countries? Microsoft Visual Country 2008?
Agreed. I want a survival horror game where the main character's name is "Gordon Stallman", and he fights exclusively with a big gun named "GPLv3".
I stopped playing Doom 3 when I realized that I had developed an instinctual tick of turning around and firing every time the lights went out.
this could become a bit unsettling in intimate situations. i hope that your girlfriend loves you anyway.
We are used to movies with blood everywhere and body parts flying in every direction.
sup, /b/!
You sound like somebody who is in need of a dose of System Shock 2.
system shock 2. never heard of that one. are you referring to the second term of our beloved president?
Remember fighting those green spider things in the dark by throwing flares around and lighting up little areas?
yah. i do it once a year. it's called "house cleaning".
No no, this is about actual enlightenment. Gautama Buddha will lecture from your cellphones built-in speakers, educating you and everyone else around you about the noble eightfold path, as you travel by train and cab.
I can hardly restrain myself. I want two!
At a first glance I thought this was about E17, the boyband.
My reaction remains unaltered though: wow, it's still around?
*big long gong sound*
Confucius says: Not as much pain in being moderated as a troll than not being moderated at all.

Actually: no. I do understand Schneier's position, but I have trouble measuring what he's getting at, and at which speed.
Allright, enough with the subatomic jokes.
Quantum cryptography may appear like serious matter on close inspection, but when you look away, it's just a wave.
I want instant on for my own body. Saves a cup of coffee in the morning.
Remove the goatee, add high frequent blinking and occasional tongue licks, and I can tell you what it means. It means a lost election.

And there I was, believing that uptime penis comparisons were a thing of the past.

the same shit went on in my company. i think we developers stopped the idea by reacting in a strongly agitated way.

"seven at one stroke", remember where you heard it first.
yes, it does not make sense - yet. i leave the hard work of making this funny to you.
Others might have just one word, I have 22 syllables for Microsofts Ethical Guidelines:

when exactly did baldness become a risk? it's not a curse, it's a privilege.
I read about it in a CS paper from a while ago.
