apparently some bigots have modded your post down again.
its curious though, there are actual people in the world, who PAY for some research through their taxes, and then does not want the ownership of it through public domain.
totally contradicts capitalism. you paid for it, but you dont own it.
excuse me, im no racist, but i dont want chinese in control of seagate. seagate is some firm that works exceptionally good. i dont want any mishaps happening after some other corp buying it and "restructuring". mergers and acquisitions thing is one of the most harmful concepts in business world.
why until now this wasnt discovered ? radiation measurement is not something new, we are even able to map distant galaxies with radio telescopes, listen to background radiation with passive telescopes. clouds arent something new ? why did this discovery wait until now ?
if an isp says that it is going to provide a certain bandwith with NO transfer limit or doesnt specify a transfer limit, it has to provide whatever it is thrown at it. its DECENT BUSINESS for gods sake.
brutal as he may be, he have unwittingly slaughtered many of the nobility and hence very probably almost totally eliminated a possibility of royalist revolution.
and nobody should be let speak about democracy or any kind of republic, if they do not know about late 18th century enlightenment and french revolution.
yes, and there are apparently quite a high number of jerks even at slashdot too, who doesnt know crap about how modern west have emerged, and consequently u.s.. some halfwit modded this thread's parent down, despite containing only historical info on what happened back in 18th century. apparently there are witless ignorant ingrates in america too - i thought this was something especially a reality here in turkey. but it seems every country has those even in the learned circles.
sometimes you vaguely remember a song you dont have and need to find it. or test out some pieces before buying them from somewhere. this thing will work great for it.
I get in, i type in "smokie" and voila, 14 songs pop up, groovy too. i click, and it plays, and it plays well, and it doesnt even require one single bit of anything - it has its own player in the site and plays well - actually at the same time with winamp playing some other thing.
The innovation stifling french were the ones who brought modern government method of the republic to the world, starting around with ideas of the likes of voltaire, rousseau and contemporaries. and united states of america, the first country to be founded by those new (and by that time's standards probably very socialist in your understanding) and popular ideals. i bet you would call them 'socialist' and demean them, gratifying the king if you were to live at that era.
There is a limit to human perception. just as you wont notice the difference between 2 samples of same graphic in the same physical size (not pixel) on a 3072x2304 monitor and a 6144x4608 monitor due to the limitation of eye perception, you wont be able to tell the difference between today's lotr and tomorrow's movies effects. because if it looks sufficiently real today, it will also look sufficiently real tomorrow since there is no change in the concept of physical reality.
you can compare terminator 3's special effects and year 2028 movies' special effects and laugh at terminator 3, yes, but not lotr. there was tremendous development in computer graphics/effects tech between the time t3 was done and lotr was done.
a sysadmin may rear a big belly and sit all day long for years, yet s/he can avert compromise of the system just one day and save even a fortune 50 company from total chop busting - like 100.000 entries of customer records being stolen.
therefore forward your phbs here, and make them read these and learn that one cant direct an i.t. unit without being an i.t. person. its a totally different, magical world.
Actually "foolhardily harming their ecosphere" is the natural thing to do. Not enough predators around to keep populations under control, population explodes eating everything in sight damaging the ecosystem, animals all starve, population is reduced drastically, ecosphere has time to recover and hopefully some sort of equilibrium is achieved.
actually nature leading a specie to intelligence kinda implies that these creatures should not need any predators to be under control. since they are intelligent. with abstract thought they should be able to conclude that if they harm their ecosphere both themselves and ecosphere will suffer.
nay ill be just passing by your posts. there are people who are posting with much more substance and material that id rather conserve my energy replying to them.
well, my father being an agricultural engineer and having to take me out to field trips during summer, i had seen fair share of farming even more than i would ever want in a lifetime.
drought affects the situation indeed. in fact it is one of the major causes of the situation. yet, its not the cause that makes the situation as bad as it is now - famine. for example there is crop shortage in turkey this year too. yet, food prices are not going up, or nobody is going to starve. however in africa, even in a small economy that would have been invigorated by just a small piece of funds flowing in as credits to the right business fields, things are not shaping up nomatter what you do.
You also seem to have a slightly off concept of how evolution works. There are no 'wannabee excuses of evolution'. Every single one of us is a last link in a chain of ancestry going back millions of years. Every single one of our direct ancestors if ever given the choice between the death of their line and the death of another's, choose themselves and their descendants. Given the choice between them eating enough to survive and killing the animals stealing their food, the choice is easy.

all of these films were from an era that cgi was not sufficiently developed. i especially named even t3, leave aside t2.
the scene you depict in lotr was notable yes, however its not due to technology. it was a rather clumsily constructed scene.
i dont think theyll be streaming your uploads to other people.
well, in /. i saw so many of that kind that my sarcasm scale went off, went rather skeptic excuse me.

mon cher, i dont speak a word of french.

when are we going to see first godzilla invasion ?

its fast also.

indeed. that is the reason that evolution apparently awards intelligence to the specie that does the most cooperation and least aggression.
well, im sure then they would have invented a technology to translate lotr to that medium.

that is also possible. but we were discussing the earlier option.
and thats it.

oargh yea, maybe i should just go out and hang out with a local motorcycle gang and be a gun-toting, trigger happy blunt badass wannabee.

lets see,
monkeys are starting to just develop inter species communication, we have been doing it for over a long time with domesticated animals.
aand, humans are able to examine cause-effect relationships in an abstract plane and find out the first instigator of a chain of events.
yep, that says that opposing the initial instigator of the event is a responsibility of a more evolved being.

i have made a lengthy post about this earlier, and am not willing to go over the entire text. ill just link here : http://science.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=27952
