If you (like me) can see the benefit of having a fully developed MMORPG that is completely open source just donate a little, quickly!"
This is starting to look a little like that email I got from the nice young man in Nigeria a few months ago, which reminds me, I need to call the post office to see if my tribal masks have arrived yet.
How would it ruin their experiment though, if cabbies started using GPS, and there was a noticable difference, wouldn't that support the researchers ideas ?
I imagine it's rather hard to find anyone to report on somthing, who has some sort of knowledge on the subject, that isn't one of theese three.
1. Involved with the product or the company producing the product.
2. Involved with the companies competition.
3. Being paid to do it.
If it's someone from the company, the competition cries foul stating the rep is only trying to make the product look good, which, if you work for a company that makes sense if you want to eat.
If it's someone from the competition, the company cries foul, again, if your competition is eating all the cake there's obviously going to be none left for you.
If they're being paid to do it, nearly everyone else cries foul, because they hadn't been informed there was going to be cake.
Who's left to report on theese products, who is also someone that would actually use them ?
"GPS [Global Positioning System] may have a big effect," says Dr Eleanor Maguire, who led the research at University College London.
"We very much hope they don't start using it. We believe this area of the brain increased in grey matter volume because of the huge amount or data they have to memorise.If they all start using GPS, that knowledge base will be less and possibly effect the brain changes we are seeing."
So, Construction Workers shouldn't use heavy equipment because it could effect their muscle tone ?
I read this paragraph & was touched, I thought it was brilliant.
America loves its solitary geniusesits Einsteins, its Edisons, its Jobsesbut those lonely dreamers may have to learn to play with others. Car companies are running open design contests. Reuters is carrying blog postings alongside its regular news feed. Microsoft is working overtime to fend off user-created Linux. We're looking at an explosion of productivity and innovation, and it's just getting started, as millions of minds that would otherwise have drowned in obscurity get backhauled into the global intellectual economy.
But when they followed it with this
Who are these people? Seriously, who actually sits down after a long day at work and says, I'm not going to watch Lost tonight. I'm going to turn on my computer and make a movie starring my pet iguana? I'm going to mash up 50 Cent's vocals with Queen's instrumentals? I'm going to blog about my state of mind or the state of the nation or the steak-frites at the new bistro down the street? Who has that time and that energy and that passion?
I thought "They're comparing Einstien to 50 cent ?!"
Then the true brilliance, of working together, hit me, or maybe it was a bullet grazing my head for talkin smack about 50, I'm not sure.
There's a clear relation to Leaders of Common Activities challenging the Leaders of a Country on a playing field that's not rigged in the Political Leaders favor while still being somthing that pertains to both parties strengths.
Is it because it mentions the name "George Bush" ?
Is it because it mentions "Eminem" or "Rap" when the game being played in the article is Chess ?
There's a clear relation between Politics & Chess, they both involve solid strategy.
There's a clear relation between George Bush & Eminem, they both mangle the English Language.
NeXTSTEP 3.x was later ported to PA-RISC and SPARC based platforms, for a total of four versions including NeXTSTEP/NeXT (for NeXT's 68k "black boxes"), NeXTSTEP/Intel, NeXTSTEP/PA-RISC and NeXTSTEP/SPARC. Although these ports were not widely used, NeXTSTEP gained popularity at institutions such as the National Reconnaissance Office, Central Intelligence Agency, First Chicago NBD, Swiss Bank Corporation, and other organizations due to its programming model.
Looks like NeXT was just destined to remain in the shade.
Ever notice how all theese groups decide to look for Alien life somewhere on Earth ?
I think the movie Alien fucked up any chance we had of ever walking on an alien world.
If this doesn't harm the sharks, it seems a lot cheaper and more efficient means than either human divers or remote subs.
Means of what ?
I don't keep up with the news like I used to, but last I checked, sharks didn't have opposable thumbs or an easy way to attach robotic arms.
The Military, tired of Atemas' funding milkage, have enlisted Tucan Sam to train theese sharks to follow their nose to explosives.
The Military plans to recoup their lost funding by excluding the part of the protocol that would make the sharks stop when they got to the explosives, then selling the Hi-Def video captured as the Digitally Remastered, Cut Scenes from the Jaws movies.
When my mom squeezes me, it means she loves me.
I think that's why Microsoft does it too.
I still haven't figured out why Uncle Tom squeezes me though.:/
If anybody is moving critical databases to an OS that isn't even officially released yet, then they deserve to have their eyeballs poked out with hot, metal pokers, and then promptly fired.
Where I work, we don't even toss stuff in waste baskets anymore, what started as an Affirmative Action hire turned out to be the best Janitor we've ever had.
We had the Machine Shop next door make him a special walking stick that has a point on the end, now he just walks around the office with that walking stick & a bag.
As if that wasn't enough, his dog can make a hell of a pot of coffee.
On the contrary, my productivity will increase due to only spending 2 seconds to figure out the sender of the email is pissed off and likely never should have waited untill they calmed down to send the email anyway, instead of spending 2 minutes actually reading the email.
Cressey added that he couldn't imagine a scenario where the reports would be valuable to terrorists
I know if I was going to use cellphones to detonate bombs, or communicate with others during a plot, I would definately like to know who the most reliable network belonged to.
I don't believe that the FCC has weighed the benefits of consumers being able to have Government collected data to aid them in making their decision when selecting a provider against the ills of terrorists having the same tool.
The data has been collected, that in itself is a security threat when the information is kept the out of the hands of the average American.
In such a situation, it is more likely for a specially trained terrorist informant to get ahold of the data than it is for a law abiding citizen.
Am I the only one that read that and thought about misleading child molesters into thinking they'll win a date with a kid to get them to purchase online magazine subscriptions, then sending Dave Sayer to one lucky molesters house with a camera crew periodicly ?
I think the people that do hate Microsoft, do so because Microsoft has become rich and famous doing the things that theese peoples parents taught them were morally wrong & people they knew scolded them for doing.

Yeah, that's what AOL thought.
I can see the looks on my friends and families faces now when I try to give them this disk.

If this goes well, you can count on seeing George Bush in a Rap Battle with Eminem in the near future.

Right about now, two people are thinking
Who's NeXT ?
However, they are not thinking in the same context.
I'm the one that doesn't know who this "NeXT" entity is.
I shit you not, I was listening to the Wizard Of Oz on TV in the background when I opened this story.
Coincidence ?
I think not.
On a serious note, if it worked before, why do anything different ?
Are you trying to tell me that Microsoft doesn't have all the money ?
Means of what ?

How do we know the guy was even blind to begin with ?
Look, I'm not saying I don't have faith in Jesus, but given his history, I don't think he could even get a gas card in this day and age.

Well, if this search engine places this site in this special spot, it must mean that this site is trustworthy.
They payed to be in that spot ?
Well, if they're able to pay for that spot, they must be trustworthy.
What do you mean where did they get the money to pay for that spot ?
How should I know ?

Unless he, or people he knows, bought stock in Apple after spreading that "information".
I think this is Florida, where even the strings have strings attached.
