And what would you suggest, when your only options are DSL or Comcast?
I personally will never give Comcast another penny, ever. I would do without internet access before I'd pay them anything.
Taking that a step further, just think where we were with computers and communications only 10, 20, 30, 50 years ago and think of the possibilities something like this could spark in the next 20 years.
nah, no self respecting company with an interest in staying alive would EVER do anything like that. I mean, customers wouldn't stand for something like that and they'd go out of business... right?
I would argue that having your body penetrated against your will is an inherently violent act.
I would argue that this argument is sexist. Since when does your body have to be penetrated? The above assumes that it is a man raping a woman and not the other way around. While I would agree that the vast majority of cases are the opposite, it doesn't mean every case is.
Is the resolution really there? with all the windows etc in mmo's display real estate gets eaten up fast. I'd be a lot that even a good HDTV would do the equivalent of 1600x1200, will they do 1280x1024 (I know those numbers are a bit off due to the difference between standard and widescreen dimentions).
nm, a quick look on wiki mentions the radio show being first... looking at the pictures on this article, the costume looks pretty much just like the trailers for The Spirit. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Shadow
I've seen the trailer for The Spirit a few times and it looks like a knock off of The Shadow. I did a bit of looking around and couldn't find much in the way of comparisons but I was just curious, from someone who knows, is that an accurate thought? The costuming and 'tone' of the trailer makes me think of The Shadow, but not knowing much about The Spirit, I could be way off.
The thing that makes the super computer a super computer is the 800 cores, which means it lends itself well to parallelism (as tfa mentions). Why does the human brain work better? One reason is that is MASSIVELY parallel by comparison. Think beowulf cluster of a billion 286's. Saying you need a better algorithm isn't really fair since the human brain already outclasses a mere 800 processors.

It's not nice to talk about the scientists at the radio telescope observatory that way.
Especially when they supply good shine!

Wasn't the shadow originally a radio show though, before the comic book? Or was the comic before the radio?
