That is awesome. I'd never realized that purple is an artifact of our genes, not of the em spectrum. But really, using gene therapy to be a pentachromat would be amazing. You wouldn't even need a thermometer to see how hot the roast is, it'd just have to have the right tint. Maybe even dark thermographic vision.
That gives me an idea: let's get together a ton of money and pay for one jerk to have a millionsome with hot women. We'll get whatever pics he can take with his cellphone camera. Totally worth it, right?
Your attitude just encourages joe-jobbing though. I think there was some of that in this last election, with robocallers calling people 10 times in a night, claiming to be for Obama.
There's an easy way to solve this. Just have sports that men can compete in, like every sport they currently have in the olympics, and sports that only women can compete in, like making me a damn sandwich. Just choose one or the other - there's no fish/pond/fairness question to ponder.
Mod parent up. This is a good reason for a social safety net if I've ever heard one. So what if they don't "deserve" it? At least it'll keep them from robbing and murdering you.
Decriminalization in Mexico won't help Mexico much, since their main drug business is involved with bringing them to the US. The US doing anything to make it easier for local growers than smugglers would actually help Mexico more, since the cartels would lose their economic incentive to do their business.
It's the Chewbacca Defense of politics. You make inflammatory posters that make so little sense that they cause peoples' heads to explode in order to prevent rational discussion, which you can't allow to happen for some reason. This works best if you're already so used to doublethink that you can accept all this without your own head exploding.
Of course the people who've "tried" Windows 7 are gonna like it. They more than likely have used it on some special demo machine with the specs and thorough setup to make it usable. Just like Mojave, when users try it in a custom environment designed to make them like it, they'll like it. But that's not what they're getting on their Compaq POS-9000. They'll eventually realize they're unsatisfied with 7 and look forward to the new version of windows without realizing they're going to be duped again just like before.
I've always been a fan of the huge Van de Graaf generator in the Boston Science Museum. Also they may have a display of flayed people there - I don't remember.
Who are you to say what cops can't do? Unless the boss is breathing down their neck, or there are a bunch of angry witnesses, they have total discretion on whether to arrest someone. They may not exercise this discretion very often, but if a cop chooses not to arrest someone for something, it's their prerogative.
The size of the battery doesn't matter much, except for wire diameter issues and I guess heat. It's chemistry that really matters. The chemistry will be superior to that in your phone by say, a factor of 5 in charge speed. Then it's just a matter of charging a bunch of cells in parallel.
South Park's portrayal of Mel Gibson is spot on, I think. A lot of religious people seem to have a hard-on for being repressed because it makes them kind of like Jesus. They love things that make them seem like Jesus! It's the second-best thing to having their own halo. So whenever you see someone preaching about how they're under attack, etc. what they're really saying is "look at me! I'm being crucified! We're all being crucified by those Romans/athiests/liberals! Yeah, twist my nipples!"
If obesity is not the pinnacle of human health, the way humans function best, why are there so many fat people? Several billion fatties can't be wrong, can they?
Religion has been an unfortunately tenacious set of memes throughout human history. That doesn't make it the default position.

Wait, you're color-blind, but you could distinguish more colors than other people?
They're really purple. And yellow.

No, before Die Another Day was "Diamonds Are Forever".

It represents a large slice of a doctor's salary, yes, but last I heard it represented only about 0.5% of healthcare costs overall.

Have you seen her in anything recent? No thanks, no thanks.

Don't forget: how many stone do you weigh? What's that in kg?

From the Wikipedia article:
"For plasmon-based electronics to be useful, an analog to the transistor, called a plasmonster, must be invented."
It is dark. You are likely to be eaten by a plasmonster.

What the hell are you talking about? Unconstitutional? Illegal terrorist organization?
Have you ever heard of the 16th amendment to the CONSTITUTION?

They should put the lab in an underground complex under Raccoon City, Colorado. What could possibly go wrong?

But I think that's 'most too light.

Mod parent up. I'm getting mighty tired of people on /. whining about the lack of DDT in our diets.
