My vague understanding of physics is that the expansion of space is governed by the speed of light. The theory is that the speed of light is slowly falling which implies that if you go back in time then the speed of light is faster which would allow the universe to expand at speeds much greater than is possible today. Is any of this actually true? I dunno, I'm not a physicist!:)
Isn't this what every computer does when it communicates with another?

Has anyone read Player Piano by Vonnegut? Great book... pretty good story about technology and designed obsolescence, and the collapse therein of a society... I won't give away the ending,
Personally I find reselling used artistic products, items with unlimited usage, to be theft (Reselling your half used pack of tic tacs doesn't bother me).
Why should it matter whether something has unlimited useage or not? By your logic it seems the reselling of the tic tacs should be theft as well. In either case the manufacturer of the product is denied the sale that would have occured had you not been there to provide the used good to the buyer.
You obviouly missed the joke so let me explain it to you:
He was implying that the coffee receives the ambient microwaves and are warmed by them, not that coffee emits them.
Slashdot Mirror
But will it spoof the spoof genre? Or is that like crossing the streams?
I would say it's more like jumping the shark.
The article didn't make this service seem very fun.
It's not that big a leap from the RIAA suing their own customers.

Well fuck me!
How could a book with such a blatent typo be "Britain's finest treasure?"
True enough :)
I want the three minutes of my life it took to read that back.
Even the smallest of countries is a very large space to get lost in. Including the Vatican?
One week Lisa will be super smart and a veggie and the next week suddenly she's as dumb as Bart and eating a pork chop. So WTF?
;)
It's less confusing if you watch the episodes in order.

I think you just did.

I have to apologize for the US. I didn't vote for Bush!
So what's the warrenty on dead pixels?
I, for one, welcome our new noun finding algorithm overlords.
The articles continues:
"with the added processing power of the Vega, Doom 3 is expected to run in excess if 20 FPS."
Are there eight different kinds of feces?
Surely the price should be lower to reflect the savings in materials and distribution costs.
:)
You're forgetting all the extra costs of including the DRM.
Your math is wrong. 200GB is 200,000 MB which works out to $0.00045/MB.
Maybe he wanted to run more than one load at a time so he doesn't have to spend the entire night at the laundry.
