After seeing Avatar, I found it looked a lot like one of the islands in Myst III With all the bright colors and dynamic plant life.
Part of the low gravity things can be explained (at least in the Na'vi) by them being ten feet tall and still being able to walk. On Earth they would have to have some pretty strong bones to be able to stand.
Well with all the miles of border, what are the chances someone will be able to recognize an area of desert or brush from a point of view they haven't seen in an area they haven't crossed over?
Opera has sort of broken away from that traditional model since so many people like to try the latest versions. They usually release weekly builds and "pre-alphas" on their blog, betas and RCs on their beta download page (more public), and then the stable version.
This one seems to have the title "pre-alpha" because it compiled, but not all the UI is complete, and a lot of things will crash it. Basically they haven't finished writing stuff and know some stuff doesn't work, so it's not even to the testing stage (which would be "alpha") or the large scale testing "beta".
There was one aquarium where the octopus was eating the sharks at night before they finally noticed. There's a video on youtube of the octopus attacking that's pretty cool.
Do you read the terms of service on every website you visit?
All it does it record information useful to webmasters like the resolution, browser, color depths, javascript abilities, you're already allowing the website to render on your computer, just part of the website was developed by and hosted on Google.
Oh like at Six Flags where they have the LCDs with pictures of the people on the rides outside and labels on the top saying "This is not a touch screen, please do not touch screen."
Of course my friend poked the image anyways "just to make sure".
As someone who uses Google Analytics on my site, I'd hope it wasn't. All the information it collects is anonymous, without it I'd have to implement my own system that would do basically the same thing, but then I'd have all that information linking users to the stuff collected.
Oh and to all you people that modify your user agent string - you're not helping statistics on browser usage, and it's not like there's an issue with anyone knowing you use the latest Firefox.
Technologies change. Eventually we'll have better batteries, better motors, and a higher capacity power distribution system. Electric cars being developed will push those technologies a lot faster.

Guess you've never really used Opera since it has the equivilants of those add-ons built in.
It's a bit funny just how fast he breaks it. The CEO seems a bit surprised how the guy whacks at it for a few seconds and breaks it that easily.
Yeah, but Johnny Five was ALIVE!
Even in movie theaters, the projectors show each frame twice to give a framerate of 48 fps. Makes it look smoother that way.
They were using it as a metric because BestBuy claimed that the processor would be 200% faster. So that should mean gaming is 200% faster too right?

I have the right to any tax dollars unused by the years end.
Like THAT ever happened. More likely you'll get the right to any deficit at the years end.
Why? My teeth are fine!

We already have a simple solution, IP4 with NAT. It works great.
I take it you've never had to program any application that needs peer to peer communications then?

Well in that case the trademark holder was an evil record company, not a friendly design firm.
Also simply not true since the communication channels ARE ENCRYPTED.
I'm thinking they could just start broadcasting the latest American Idol or whatever and drive off anyone who might be monitoring them forever!
Yeah, one important thing when trying to get lots of people to do something on a specific date is to make sure you've picked a real date.
They haven't been titanium for years - it tended to crack and wasn't shiny enough. Now they're aluminum.

I think he means the front page, which does look sort of like some crappy domain squatters web portal:

Well as she said, she's from Alaska so she could see the ice melting and temperatures first hand.
Well that would be an SQL injection attack... Does everything that's been covered by XKCD remind you of it now?

Yep, it even works in Opera and has made facebook a lot more pleasant.
