  1. Re:University of Amsterdam on Drug Deletes Fearful Memories · · Score: 1

    Later scientists were asked about their research but could only reply "man... we totally forgot about that shit, man. You like just blew our minds"

  2. Feudal Internet? on Do We Need a New Internet? · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Not on my internets you don't!

  3. My pocket and my hand on Samsung Releases Solar-Powered Phone · · Score: 1

    So do I need to keep this phone on a clip on my belt so it can get some sun? I mean when I call people my hand will be pretty much all over those panels and they won't get any light. Does it recharge in the seconds it takes me to put the phone back in my pocket? And when will the panels be facing the sun? Do I need to hold the phone up when i use it for texting. This idea is retarded.

    It's as simple as this, they'd actually let them fail.

    Any one reminded of the Aliens monitor? Except without 80's input, we have multi-touch interaction?

  6. Re:A marketing opportunity. on Marijuana Could Prevent Alzheimer's, New Study · · Score: 1

    It might have to do with the fact that when you ingest/smoke/vape Marijuana, the effects of THC dilate the arteries within your brain. Increasing blood flow to the brain. I doubt this has much to do with it though.

    Neither, THC is fat soluble not water soluble. THC is Alcohol soluble. There for the first product would likely be, what is currently called, "green dragon". S.W.E.D.

    Because no one is really all that interested in Cognitive Science.

  9. Re:Where the moneys at yo! on One In 100 Carry Mutation For Heart Disease · · Score: 1

    According to this article I should be learning Hindi, first of all. Second, Heart disease is the largest killer on this planet. I seriously doubt that by the time I would be done with my fellowship that there will be an over abundance of cardiologists. I'm not in it for seven figures, six figures is the goal. Plus, I'd rather be private practice than in the cath lab. It's also a disease that is pretty much supported by our lifestyle here in the US and abroad in first world countries. I see little evidence to suggest that I won't be making bank by the time I'm out. Thanks for the condescending "sport" though.

  10. Where the moneys at yo! on One In 100 Carry Mutation For Heart Disease · · Score: 1

    This is why I'm going pre-med. In the hopes that within 8 to 10 years I'll be a specialist in cardiology. While my motives aren't exactly pure (money) I'll still be helping some people. But seriously, Baby boomers... you guys are so boned.

    Separation of church and state, don't forget that "under god" was added to the anthem and constitution in the 1950's unlawfully. This shit is getting out of fucking hand. Those mother fuckers.

    Can you really make a game that looks as good as crysis? Seriously, do you have any idea of what went into making it? Something tells me that you have no idea what so ever.

  17. Re:Dang, at least it was better than... on Meteorite Destroys Warehouse In Auckland, NZ · · Score: 1

    That's how the media portrays it but I haven't seen much mourning over the dead here in SD. It was really unlucky and sucks for that dude and his dead family members but it was an accident... not a serious tragedy.

    True, I just got an aspire one with Windows and all that fun stuff. I instantly removed the microsoft word trial and installed OpenOffice 3.0. I bought it for taking notes during lecture and while the keyboard is a bit small I can get used to it. On top of this... it runs QuakeLive... HELL YEAH!!!

  22. Re:wtf? on Race and Racism In Video Games · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Racism isn't about how bad you have it. Tons of white people are poor and underprivileged. I'd bet they're more likely to be racists than privileged whites. The past is in the past, when you want to get past bad race relations you need address the present. Currently Jesse Jackson and Al sharpton are leading the way to frivolous claims of racism and it's rubbing off on the black populace. This breads a distrust between blacks and whites and plants to seeds of racism. So yeah, it is two way street you're just ignoring the present.

  23. Re:wtf? on Race and Racism In Video Games · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Remember, It's cool to kill honky ass white bread crackers. Though, The minute you start killing Africans in Africa the gloves are off and it's just plain racism. This is regardless of the fact that blacks with a minority complex are racist towards whites and other races. It's the stupid view that racism is a one way street.

    I'm applying for to a UC with a major in Cognitive Science specialized in computation. This is exactly the kind of thing that I want to be a part of. Even though I don't believe this project will get where it wants to go I do believe it will make steps in the right direction to modeling neurons.
