In short, there are certain color combinations that normal RGB cannot represent. As the other poster noted, letting RGB go outside the normal ranges will make up for this shortcoming.

I saw a page once which demonstrated a beatiful deep shade of cyan that is simply not possible on a monitor. You would stare at a red square on the screen and then look at a light part, and the afterimage was this spiffy color.
For my settings, the slashdot logo looks cyan (#006666). Basically the color was that, with a little more gray taken out.
Humans are just biological robots?? This shatters my primitive worldview that humans are special! What reason can I use now to back up my humanist behaviour which is driven by EXACTLY the same instincts that drive racism, nepotism, and egotism?
Aha, I know! God told me in a dream that humans have souls AND he told me that robots don't. Yay, now I can use divinely justified violence to conceal the lies I tell myself!
What coloring scheme does this format use? Can it represent all visible colors, or is it oriented more towards CMYK (a focus on printing)? Or worse... was it designed by people who think 'color' means RGB?
Look at suprnova.org. The number of unique data sets is the number of torrents. They don't publish the total size of all torrents, but suppose you have an average 300 MB. Multiply by the number of torrents (bottom of page), and you get about 100 TB right there.
If instead you look at the number of seeders, it is like 2 PB, just not all unique.
This paper reads as a summary of recent hypothetical teleportation techniques from the scientific literature (and otherwise). The section on psychic teleportation isn't really a big part of the paper. And that part is basically a summary of a whole lot of PK experiments. I'm unfamiliar with this field so a lot of the things mentioned were new to me.
A quote from that part of the paper: "The skeptical reader should not be so quick to dismiss
the subject matter in this chapter, because one must remain open-minded about this subject and consider
p-Teleportation as worthy of further scientific exploration. The psychotronics topic is controversial
within the western scientific community. The debate among scientists and scientific philosophers is
highly charged at times, and becomes acrimonious to the point where reputable skeptical scientists cease
being impartial by refusing to examine the experimental data or theories, and they prefer to bypass rational discourse by engaging in ad hominem attacks and irrational "armchair" arguments."
The problem with all this psi stuff is that even if it's real, the evidence is extremely scare given its importance. I mean, I've never seen it demonstrated, even on video. Why is it so unpublicized?
Funerals are all a joke anyway. That's where everyone practices their serious faces and tries to continuously stay in character. I find it difficult, but everyone else seems to be really good at funeralling.:/
I've pointed this out many times before. Quantum encryption is practically all hype.
Your super-duper encrypted communications line is as secure as your ISP. Worried about that? Use SSL. OH WAIT. That also makes plain old copper lines secure as well.
Unless you're a moron, it's very easy to discover fundamental truths about computer security. Quantum encryption does not get around these truths.
Why should I only be allowed to have one identity?
Someone tell me why this is relevant.
If a system requires each account to have a unique human body behind it, then it is fundamentally flawed, right from the start. Why bother pandering to such broken systems?
For those people concerned that releasing the predictions will interfere with the results, please remember that not many people will actually use this tool.
Slashdot Mirror
After all, the entirety of human progress has proceeded completely naturally.
Google should just tell them to fuck off and laissez faire.
Do smart people drop below dumb people, when both are under pressure, or do they tend to level off at the same behaviour?
I mean, really. It is shit.
No point in trying to make formal mutually exclusive labels for something which is so obviously a continuum.

No. Broadcast is difficult with lasers, you fool.

Doctor: There's a chance you could get breast cancer if you get an abortion.
Baby-maker: Oh dear, I don't want that!
Doctor: There's also a chance you could get hit by a meteor if you get an abortion.
Baby-maker: Ah. I see now. I'll have the deluxe abortion please!
It seems the only way to make people smarten up about nuclear power is to force them into it. This study is very good.

Let's use MAGIC, too!!!

That's not really true. There are plenty of Liberals who support Intellectual Property, and plenty of Conservatives who do not.
Use any definitions you like, but the distinction between Left and Right is moot for IP.
Obviously, some amount can be dealt with via error correcting codes, provided the mean time is at least 100 years.
A human only needs to type in their password so fast. Login delays are the perfect solution to this.
If someone sees your encrypted password file, that is already a huge security breach.
