you must be very young. actually one of the nice perks of being almost half century old is that it takes a lot of oral action for a very long time to get climax.
well, in 2007 the Japanese had 833 cell phones per 1,000 people.
could even have land-line phone blast telemarketing style for those with no cell (i'm guessing the elderly maybe not plugged into the ether so much). Sure, there would be panic and the problems it causes, but some would get a chance
Here in the USA I've read in news of exactly one person dead, and yes I'll troll and point out he and his friends were total DUMBASSES taking photos of incoming Tsunami waves at mouth of river outlet to ocean. His friends are lucky to be alive and can now reflect for years on how their utter stupidity got their companion killed horribly and how they made all their families suffer.
I'm much more concerned how this system could have been better to help the Japanese,there were minutes between the quake and when the tsunami hit there. in this age of instant comm could not have more been saved by instant messaging system?
could it possibly be because the other symptoms of black widow bite include "local pain, followed by localized or generalized severe muscle cramps, abdominal pain, weakness, and tremor. Large muscle groups (such as shoulder or back) are often affected, resulting in considerable pain. In severe cases, nausea, vomiting, fainting, dizziness, chest pain, and respiratory difficulties may follow." -- ehealthmedicine.com
there is another treatment, as an alternative for those who do not respond well to oral PDE5 inhibitors such as Viagra, that involve hypodermic injection of drugs such as alprostadil into the base of the penis.
Not impossible that the spider venom might be found to be best administered this way
human brains working together (including passing information from one generation to the next) can build tools that can multiply billions of numbers.
Human brains get credit for any supercomputer's computation.
whoever said that never had children, an 18 month old toddler is very self-aware: "I want ______ !!!!!" By the time they're two they are ego-maniacal dictators.
energy (power integrated over time) determines damage. Your "instantaneous power"/"steady low power" statement is meaningless.
Sure, if you could find 1MW laser that pulses for a second it would be the same as "continuous" 1MW laser for same time. But I've been working with lasers for 30 years and have yet to see pulsed laser with that kind of duty cycle (must be one out there somewhere, I suppose), usually milliseconds down to femtoseconds are in most labs.
Even though it's 5 months since Ubuntu 10.10 came out, there are 4000 seeders of i386 and 1800 of x86-64, plus of the alternate install cd 800 for i386 and 600 for x86-64.

the technology was not limited to prototyping 15 years ago either, it's just that beyond dozens or hundreds of parts, usually other manufacturing methods are more cost-effective. this would certainly include nylon parts
no, merely giving power output is completely meaningless for a pulsed laser. There might be enough energy to pierce a M1 Abrams tank, or to merely hit a speck on a razor at 1 MW. What is important is energy output, and without knowing the time for which 1 MW of power is output there is no way to know. Now a continuous beam laser of a megawatt, that would be a true weapon of war that could level buildings or turn tanks into slag, given enough minutes of application
indeed *yawn*, homemade handheld xenon flash tube pulsed lasers with much more power output were made decades ago, and energy is only a meaningful metric for continuous beam lasers.
An continuous beam argon laser of a few watts is something to point at a steak, but this toy wouldn't do much.
manned spaceflight is a waste of resources, much more cost effective to do things remotely. Nothing of our current "primate-in-a-can" approach to space stations proves much other than that weightlessness is VERY unhealthy. All the experiments can be done much more cheaply remotely.
We should develop propulsion and probe tech until we have breakthroughs such as controlled fusion that will allow us to make serious colonies and spacecraft that are inhabitable indefinitely.
I don't think you understand what facebook does. They have thousands of major web sites loading scripts and links from facebook systems, with sharing of data with those partners. Put no-script or similar on your browser and see how many of your favorite websites includes facebook tracking/data sharing hooks.
that cartel lasted until 1939 though. Nowadays you can buy tunsten bulbs with longer life for a more money, my local store carries 1500 and 2000 hour bulbs. Online there are 5000, 10,000 and 20,000 hour bulbs.
of the billions of light bulbs made in the last century, there are a handful that would be the tail end of the bell curve for each kind of technology. That doesn't change that the average life of carbon filament bulbs from the early 20th century is about the same as tungsten (on the order of 1000 hours) but with much less light output.

I just realized that half the populace (of which only four frequent slashdot) would call that PMS
while the truth is it makes people ravish potato chips, cookies and crackers. oh, the evil munchies, only the government can save you!

sounds like U.S. government propaganda such as "causing genetic defects, psychosis, reefer madness, loss of long term memory etc.etc.

Pulsed laser specs give energy output in Joules. for small lasers milliJoules per pulse.

I buy an LED bulb every couple years to see how the technology is doing.
the LED bulbs are getting close but still have the 160 degree "floodlight" type of pattern
not quite an "effective" replacement yet for all applications

the way facebook sells and shares private data is too scary, wouldn't want them to have personal contacts or phone browser information
