Probably won't work for the congentially blind though since the visual centers would not have developed when they get to adulthood. The impulses would probably have to be turned into audio or tactile senses instead.
Oh well, to all the windows using women out there, remember, the standard rate for getting a guy to help you out is ONE blowjob. Please form an orderly cue.
Do those sores on your mouth mean anything? No? Carry on then...
Nice going with the ad hominem. But if you actually read the article, it's written in such a way as to suggest it as a source of fuel:
Proven reserves of natural gas on Earth total 130 thousand million tons, enough to provide 300 times the amount of energy the entire United States uses annually for residential heating, cooling and lighting. Dozens of Titan's lakes individually have the equivalent of at least this much energy in the form of methane and ethane.
By the time the cost of technology required to go to Titan falls to a reasonable level, we should have already passed the need to use hydrocarbons as our main source of energy.
A similar thing is going on with anti-smoking campaigns and mandatory seat-belt laws. With less people smoking, there are less people dying earlier of lung-related illnesses. With mandatory seat-belt laws, we're seeing a decrease in the number of viable organs for organ donation.
Leave it to PCM2 to reuse the same line from December 20th. This is Slashdot. Didn't you think anyone would remember? On the other hand, given this site's penchant for duping (even on the same day!), I guess not...
And the stupid and idiotic thing is? These attacks are being perpetrated by fucking law students! Although maybe I shouldn't be so surprised. You certainly, well I don't see this amoung medical students. I thought libel was illegal?

Couldn't just get a bunch of Linksys WRT 54GLs, load OpenWRT, and setup that way?
Interesting. That's what people said 10 years ago...

You mean that's not how it works???

At least that's what the people over at ars say

I'm a little confused. Since you get an actual physical product, wouldn't a patent apply for this particular implementation?
The proof-of-concept code only supports x86 and x86_64. Does that mean other architectures are immune?

Sounds even more fun than extreme ironing!
And if they target Linux, I'll go to FreeBSD, and so on...
It's not that funny if you have to explain it.
Hehe, just kidding. No one reads these things this far back anyway.

Even if carbon nanotubes are somehow toxic, so are current chemotherapies for certain cancers!
where have you been for the past 20 years? name one mainstream os where ram and cpu use decreased during the years.
while you are quite correct the question becomes why should the CPU handle those instructions?
cost
That's not what snopes.com says...

It even has wired ethernet. But Apple still has the branding that the general populace flock to nowadays.
One always had suicidal thoughts. The other had excruciating back pain.
...before it's built. Seems like a non-story.
and he's holding a case of Miller Lite!
