Is there anyone in you family that has alzheimers?
Is there anyone in your family that suffers moderate to severe memory loss as a result of accident, disease, or trauma?
Does your child have physical and mental problems that impair learning?
Fuck the flies, and fuck you for suggesting that research like this is 'immoral'. What's immoral is your haughty 'I'm holier than thou' attitude that just because you can't immediately grasp all the implications of an experiment, it shouldn't be done, the benefit be damned.
Why do you think that gaming is the only possible use for this?
How about: Medical imaging, military imaging, warehouse inventory control visualization, education, biological research, chemistry, physics modelling, and etc.
Really, you just aren't even trying to be imaginative.
Yeah, 'cept with the i4i case, they actually/did/ have a patient, and Microsoft actually/did/ break the law and steal their code after working with them. They weren't actually patent trolls, though Microsoft did a great job painting them that way.
Under international trademark law, if Apple doesn't defend their trademark against any and all percieved infringements (that is, this story), they/lose their trademark/.
The silliness doesn't originate with Apple, but with international trademark law.
Under international trademark law, if Apple/doesn't/ defend their trademark (the Apple logo), then they/lose/ it./That/ is where the blame and fault lies.
No.
How do you think you see?
That's right, light on the retina.
What's this?
That's right, light on the retina - no different.
Actually, you couldn't me more dead wrong.
Even according to Stallman, the value of information is that it be free, as in /freedom/, not as a product.
So you value community over the individual?
That way lies tyranny, slavery, and genocide.
Some?
Try '200'. /At least/ try to read the summary before posting, otherwise you just end up looking silly. :)
Did you examine the code, or are you making things up?
Hell hath no fury like a gamer scorned.
Unless you count capitalism.
You need better friends. :)

You do realize that capitalism is entirely voluntary, right? If it wasn't 100% voluntary, it wouldn't be capitalism.
Your problem isn't the game, it's that you want to be 'in the top players'.
Most people don't care about that.
That you do, is nobody's fault but your own.
Second Life has been doing this for years and years, relying soley on microtransactions.
From all accounts, they're still doing very well.

You expect them to be absolutely perfect all the time no matter what, forever and ever? /That's/ unrealistic.
I might be getting your mod points - I rarely visit Slashdot, but my mod points are refreshed every three days, whether I use them or not.
I basically have infinite mod points.
Hah! No, a serious citation, please - wikipedia isn't something people should take seriously for any educational or informative purposes.
Citation please.
How on earth is a voluntary service exploitative?
In the same way I guess that a story exploits people who voluntarily buy from them.
Is there something I'm missing here?
Could the keys of those keyboards you've used recognize variable pressure input?
Yeah, I thought not. At least read the /summary/, for crying out loud, even if this is /.
All the evidence, carefully selected and taken as a whole, shows that human activity has increased the global surface temperatures of the earth.
Why is that strange to consider?
You think we're ghosts or something who can't affect the world around us?

It's not hypocracy.

And you accept it?
Why?
Where did the poster say they wanted to promote ignorance? That's your own ignorant comment. Ingnorbutt.
