A long while back there was an article about how some rancher in Texas or wherever setup a camera to a rifle so people could hunt online, but aiming and firing remotely. I think South Korea should deploy several remote-access camera/rifles along the DMZ, such that they can be precise and accurately controlled in the North Facing 180.
So with all the rifles "controlled" via website, North Korea will be eager to hack into the systems to gain control. With the tech genius that is South Korea, one could hope for rapid advancement of Network Security!

Speaking of cross polination...nice choice of words when you were scoping out La Blue Girl and Cool Devices to see if they were good or not...for your kids sure...
j/k;)
When the world works in a way where it truly is paperless...the the next Manhatten Project will be a Explosion that wipes out all Magnetic data/etc... for given radius. Who cares if no people are harmed, given that every piece of data in that location is wiped out with no recovery...unless they are backedup up elsewhere in say redundant datacenter maybe?
As a hardcore gamer I had a GPA to be proud of. Once I decided to step out of my shell and interact with the other human gender that hole drama/dating/emotion thing is what hurt the grades. It wasn't the gaming. I remember gaming until 4am in the morning, only to stop for 2 hours to finish a report and drop it off at the professors office only to go back home to finish my game. Ok, so Zelda can be demanding.
If you use gaming as an excuse to procrastinate and if procastinating leads to incomplete work, that's one thing. But I've been able to game hardcore and still get all my stuff done with good results.
...or he works with graphics with a specific objective that the GIF format does not live up to the same quality standards. I can think of one industry where the JPG rules over the GIF...hmmm...ever since the days of 2400 Baud modems, I remember that certain industry using JPGs and having to wait for the blurred image to refresh with the next compression level...Mmmm anyone else miss the anticipation of waiting for the JPG to finish loading...

"It needs to render on my PC. The one I have now."
GrAmps, it may be time to upgrade your 486DX2/66Mhz with 8M of Ram, with that Voodoo 8mb video card...but you can get a good machine for cheap off craigslist, no it's not your neighbor Craig's grocery list...
Wait, errrr...Great Apes...nm...
I keep a 20gb drive setup with WinME and configured to be 100% legit and free of any convicting software that I just plug in and remove the other drives. WinMe has so many holes in it, that the court automagically rules in favor of trojans and backdoor usage.

Up until 3 weeks ago, I have been a windows user. After reading so much about Ubuntu on/. I gave it a whirl, and now all the systems in my home are running ubuntu. The last time I tried Linux, it was with Red Hat 5.0. It lasted for about 3 days because after that it was too frustrating to get everything working (sound drivers/video drivers/etc...) I am sure Red Hat distros have improved so far...but I've already got ubuntu working and now there is really no need to change, as nothings broken...(Except Photoshop CS2, Dreamweaver, MWS, and iTunes...) Prey works awesome as well.

Imagine a new tool that instead of fibre wire, it uses these as an "atom wire"..
Just think of the uses...
-Cutting a block of cheese
-Chopping down trees
-Invisible clothesline for an unsuspecting target, with an effect similar to the lasers in Resident Evil

...instead of Nukes, Tanks, Fighter Jets, and Battleships?

When your enemy gives you ground, you don't go hide in your bunker and call him names. You advance.
Isn't that what happened at Normandy?

"Recent restructuring..." foundation for the company to meet the holiday demands...
There is one word for both "blue" and "green", and another word for "yellow", "orange", and "brown".
1. "Blue" and "Green" one word english translation is "Turqoise"
2. "Yellow, Orange, and Brown" one word english translation for all three would be "Shit" or "Zune".

Wow, I wish I had a keyboard that could print. That'd be a major space saver. Where do you keep the paper tray? ~CYD

Avoid running with your pants around your ankles and you won't have that problem.

Oh great one, teach me your ways of copying software legally.
