So evil dictators beware! There's a big blue salmon coming your way to give you a taste of the disease of freedom. And no anti-viral net can stop it.

Suppose WW2 was going on, and you were threatening to leak the D-Day plans to the other country. Does everybody on this side of the ocean have a right to get mad at you and string you up on the nearest lamp-post? Of course they do.
Suppose you were Klaus Fuchs, and you were going to leak the secrets of the atomic bomb to another country. Does everybody over here have a justification to get mad at you for it? Sure they do. Stealing from the public and defending it as mere theft from the "big, bad state" doesn't change the fact that the public has been shortchanged.
Nobody has automatic right to credibility, and if you are seen by others as being against society, then they have a right to kick you out. Freedom of dissociation is a freedom as well.
Does anybody remember that time some guy hid a camera in the gym that Princess Di was going to, and recorded her doing thigh contraction exercises?
Some news show got revenge on him by inviting the guy over for an interview, while secretly hiding a camera in his hotel room, where they recorded him wanking off to a porn video offered on the hotel TV.
So the moral of the story is that if you like to pry open the secrets of others, then others can pry open your secrets too. Turnabout is fairplay. Just because you're a crusader with a camera, pen, laptop, or website, doesn't mean you're above being reported on. Comes with the territory - you gotta be able to take it, if you wanna dish it out.

Photons bouncing around inside the resonant cavity could be considered a standing wave, but the BEC requires them to reach a minimum critical density in order to achieve the BEC state. Meanwhile lasers formed by traditional population inversion can happen at any amplitude.
I felt that one of the best Wii titles at launch was Wii Boxing, and it was precisely because of the motion controls, rather than the graphics. I still love playing Wii Boxing to work up a quick sweat, and I find it really improves your hand-eye coordination.
I'd love to see another game making use of Wii Boxing's punching mechanic. Perhaps a game like God Hand or something.
I'm thinking that Nintendo will launch a new console in 2011 no matter how many denials they're issuing, simply because then otherwise they have nothing new to show in the face of Kinect and Sony Move. I'd imagine it'll have noticeably better graphics than 360 or PS3.
I thought Shogo was a cool game, with an exceptionally strong animé feel for its time. That would look good as a remake with the latest generation of graphics.
Homeworld's stories were each unique epics, and epics should not be re-done. Instead, Relic should make a sequel, with the best graphics that the current generation of hardware has to offer.
This should include Star Wars like space battles where fighters can skim low over the surface of massive capital ships, and even travel inside them.
Nonsense, it's not a ploy. The fact is that education policymakers everywhere are questioning whether the curricula being taught to today's students has enough relevance to the job skills that the market is looking for.
As we all know, there is no shortage of grads suffering from crushing debt while facing difficulties getting hired.
As such, it's imperative for educators to be asking hard questions that are relevant to economic realities.
I'd love to see this thing in an Android tablet, or a next-gen game console.
I'm sure the pixels-per-watt are fabulous.
I hope it shows up in the Wii-2, or in some super-powered tablet that will make PCs obsolete.
But how tolerant would turbines be against the ordinary bumps and shocks of traveling on a road?
When you have a turbine spinning at high RPM, anything that bumps the damn thing hard enough can make it go out of whack.
In India, they've been selling a turbine-powered scooter since the 80s, but somebody just took a stationary turbine-generator and fitted into a scooter chassis.
A turbine-powered motorbike would be easier to develop than a car, and you might get much better acceleration.
Given that Iran's proxies Hezbollah have taken over Lebanon, it seems clear that the Iranians have invaded and occupied that country. Also consider than some of the great persian epic poems and ballads are about fighting in Afghanistan - Khorasan, as they call it. Certainly the Iranians have invaded that country, which is why there are so many Persian speakers there.
It's ironic that when Iran was politically benign during the 1950s, it was subjected to foreign meddling. But now that Iran is in the grip of an irredentist ideology and trying to build nuclear weapons, the Left are suddenly arguing they pose little threat.
It just goes to show how morally bankrupt the Left has become, when they scoff and sneer at some poor illiterate woman who's facing death by stoning, claiming that her case is over-hyped and overblown. That's not the kind of liberalism I was raised to respect - kids these days (sigh).
I thought one of the big uses being touted for the upcoming new CPU-GPU processors like AMD's Fusion, is that they'll be able to do things like virus-checking concurrently on the side. Why not similarly try it for homomorphic encryption on the side, and then the computational complexity won't slow things down too badly.
I'd really love it if Fusion could give us ultra-powered iPad-killing tablet PCs, complete with multi-tasking/multi-window functionality, as well as 3D acceleration. But will it be low-powered enough?
Now that the tire-squealing precision-skidding has been mastered, we just need the turbo boost and the annoying nasal voice synthesizer to round out the look and feel.

Frankly, that guy does look like a trenchcoat-wearing freak. You can tell just by the look of him.
