Men involved in fight clubs often carry bottled-up violent impulses learned in childhood from video games, cartoons and movies, said Michael Messner, a University of Southern California sociology and gender studies professor.
Hopefully we can someday return to the world where none of thoseexisted, and men never fought each other.
I altered someone's greasemonkey script a bit. It unitalicizes all the article text, changes all the fonts to sans-serif, makes the page fixed-width to help with unending, unreadable length lines of text, and fiddles with a few font sizes for better readability.
Ok, a second button *might* be confusing to the grandma or little kid who is running an iMac or Mac Mini. But the graphic artists, sound and video editors and other power users who buy the $3000 G5 can certainly handle the complexity of a mult-button mouse.
Why do all Apple computers necessarily have to come with the same mouse?
"Richard Gross, a geophysicist with NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in California, theorized that a shift of mass toward the Earth's center during the quake on Sunday caused the planet to spin 3 microseconds, or 3 millionths of a second, faster and to tilt about an inch on its axis."
3 millionths of a second faster...per year? Per day? Per second? It would seem that that would be critical information left out of this and all other articles I've seen mentioning this change.
So the executives at Fox aren't making enough money by keeping all but $125k/episode/actor? They must be crazy.
The money is pouring in already. It's simply a matter of who gets the gains, and I think the voice actors have a pretty strong point to stand on that they are partially responsible for that money flood.
He didn't do the video because he desires permission of the authors. Nothing in that article states that he's legally disallowed from making the video, he's just standing by his (previously mentioned) judgment that it's better for artist relations if he's not going against artists' wishes.
I give it a day before we're deluged with emails asking to send credit card numbers to a paypal.com site or domain registration renewal notices linking to networksolutions.com.
The Eads Bridge was the first bridge across the Mississippi (and it has a newly opened pedestrian walk-way. Be one of the first Australians to walk across the River!).
The Gateway Arch is more amazing than you think, and standing at it's foot, touching the metal is the only way to really know that.
The City Museum is 4 story Fantasyland full of lifesize whale sculptures, old airplanes, hollowed out trees, and crazy plastic tubes and wire tunnels that will be taken away once the insurance company gets wind of how cool it all is.
Plus, get here on a Friday and hang out with the rest of us Geeklifers at our weekly Geeklife Happy Hour, likely followed by all night Planetside playing.

If enough people sign up that settlement/people is smaller than $5/person then no individuals get any money (and it all goes to charitable groups and the government). From what I can tell, the magic # is 8.8 million.
I was actually hoping Slashdot wouldn't get wind of this, so I'd have a better chance at getting $20. Oh well. (If I were one of those charities I sure would be working hard to sign people up for the settlement.)
I'd like to see a comparison of this year's robots vs. last year's. What new features are being tried out, how much closer are we to the dream of beating the best humans, and what strategies are being rethought?
Everyone always talks about how fast technology like this advances, but when I watch the little Aibo's fight it out, it always looks the same to me. Can anyone provide insight?

That sounds like some spam I just got.
Oh. Huge discs! Nevermind.

Did you take a poll? The big green screen that stated "THE FOLLOWING PREVIEW..." made it pretty clear to folks in our theater.
It was a good preview, but give RotK fanatics more credit than that.
For the title of the article to be "The Pixaring of Despair," considering there's nothing happening to Pixar at all?

Well, they weren't going to call it "Ass-er."

Sorry, I've got my slashdot spam filter set to delete stories that start with ADV.
Can we get a review of this site, slashdot.org I've heard so much about?
Sorry, I'd just thought everyone had heard about Design Patterns long ago. Seems a bit like publishing a book review on the KJV Bible or something.
How long till the RIAA finds out how this violates the DMCA?
This seems to be saying it is. Using IMAX DMR, anyway. (not sure how that's supposed to stand for Digital reMasteRing, though).
Who thinks that people silly enough to believe the first trip to the moon was a hoax will now believe that this trip is for real?

Itty Bitty Disc Drive? Let's just call it an EDBDCD-ROM.
Do libraries have to get permission to save and allow browsing of copies of newspapers (both physical and microfiche)?
