Once people start realising that "religion" means "set of beliefs" you'll see that everyone is an athiest. In 2,000 years wait and see what the "hip-new-generation" will say about our physics, chemistry and biology "beliefs" right now. Assuming that a theory is a belief.
Either that or I'm wrong: we have reached the pinnacle of human achievement and reason. Our science is perfect, because unlike earlier scientists, we have "verifiable proof". [/sarcasm]
Will the scientists exploring this metal become the first team of costumed superheroes, evolving themselves due to the cosmic radiation.
Am I the only one who giggles at the prospect of "radiation allowing you to stretch your cells". I still think Dr. Fantastic (PHD) should just call himself "Tumor Man" and let all speculative debate about his powers lie to rest.
Sony's first line of product ALWAYS SUCKS. There is always some minor flaw in them that they never catch in beta. But by releasing a limited supply of consoles on the first run, they can minimize damages when that error is fixed. o_o'
If it'll stop the OS wars, I'll accept anything. Imagine if other products were debated as often as Operating Systems.
Architect: "Loser. My printer is so much better than yours, because it is a plotter and can print HUGE banners!"
Writer: "Loser. Well my printer was cheaper, and the ink is much cheaper!"
Graphic Designer: "Sellout! My printer can print on photo-quality paper and at a higher resolution!"
Although the jokes the wars create are quite funny.
Unless we move out of 64-bit architecture, right? I mean, we'll have to by Sunday, December 4, 292,277,026,596 or else we'll have something slightly similiar to Y2K (or Y2038).
But really, aren't a lot of virus' and spybots program this way? I wouldn't know; the only thing I could do related to reprogramming a virus or spybot would be renaming the exe file that the dumb@$$ has to open to get his system infected.
Smoking them within 100 ft of a government building, in restaurants, even if you own them, or...anywhere where I live except "designated areas". (note: I live on a large college campus.)
Aren't computers great? They are placed alongside cigarettes, alcohol, cars and guns with "consumer products that you own, but can't choose how you use".
Only difference is in the four above examples, ITS THE GOVERNMENT RESTRICTING US, not some private company.
I'm tempted to just get it and ignore the EULA. If I get sued, ask the judge "why am I not allowed to use my product the way I want to?" Too bad that wouldn't work. *Sigh*
Maybe I can ask a Microsoft employee face-to-face. "Hey, can I own Window's Vista?" Note the lack of the word "a copy of...".
My thoughts exactly.
Ghost story of the year for me: once I opened up a mac. I expected you know...a motherboard...harddrive...video card...but neigh. I found but a small black box. I took the box out and opened it. It was empty.
I closed the box and placed in back in the case as fast as I could.
The mac would never work again.
But really...are they filling the thing with pumpkin pulp? That might make it have total system failures less often.
No. That's owned by a man in california who has already declared himself emporer of the moon. Personally though I think we should elect the moon's emporer-for-life based soley on moon-worm riding abilities.
But when will we be able to make mice play FPSs and fighting games so we can have bots that learn...
and apparently bots that are always happy...
I swear I'm going to throat punch the next person who calls depression and illness and prescribes medication for it. I understand its an imbalance of chemicals in the brain. But so is an orgasm. That doesn't mean we need pills to prevent that. If people just tried a little harder to be happy and realise that its all in your head, the world would be a better place. We do have control over our emotions. And if you do get depressed "sometime in your life" (as the article explains), then just wait for it to pass. So what? Your depressed. If people weren't depressed once in a while, people wouldn't be able to judge if they were truly happy when true happiness hit. Depression is an important emotion that, when channeled, can lead to great things (note: I do not count art as great things so much as doing better in your job to try to get out of your depression slump).
But I probably made like 10 "foes" right now. And half the slashdot community who reads this probably thinks I'm some uneducated, stupid red-neck who is also insensitive.
Eih. Let the spyware infect your machine. The pages I view causes most spyware to go blind in seconds anyways.
I'm waiting for a site to put a virus on their page that destroys a google server once their site gets on the cache! Haha!
By the time we get a definate answer on the size and age of the universe...heat death will be upon us anyway...
Same theory holds true with Duke Nuke'em Forever.
The first andriod being Abraham Lincoln at Knott's Berry Farm.
"Four Score and seven years ago..." *random flash photographer* "DESTROY! DESTROY!"
But seriously, its kinda sad that Asia's mass media usually puts robots in such a good light (as oppossed to our western "there taking over!" luddite outlook) that we won't be producing anything like this for a while. I for one welcome our new robot masters, with their 6 facial expressions and 400 phrases.
Or we can have these anti-censorship people working on informing the masses that critical information reguarding the cure for cancer is blocked because otherwise the medical world would go broke...
Some countries have too much censorship. They are ran by them so their citizens won't know enough to take down their government (or won't want too). We use propaganda: the citizens in the U.S. know so much that thoughts of rebellion or even getting into "real politics" (outside of crap like "I voted for _____ for president") or medicine becomes "boring" since that information is given in not only a boring but a needlessly slow pace.
As well as sword fights, fighting games, fishing games, sports games, motorcycle games, ski-do games and hummingbird based shooter games.
WE LOVE YOU KOLIBRI!
The reason why is two-fold. On one hand we have a horrible medicine company who refuses to look towards any cures they themselves did not develop and towards any long term health care that will bolster the immune system. Khemotherapy, antibiotics and other treatments do more damage then good in a long term basis since they do destroy our immune system or the 5 pounds of bacteria we SHOULD have in our stomach that leads to yeast infections, which leads to retardation and a lower immune system.
Our other problem is our crops. Besides irradiation, which thanks to Bill Clinton can be done to fruit and vegatables without consumer knowledge, that destroys the enzymes in fruits and vegatables (/makes them unusable by our bodies) we also have nitrate in our soil instead of naturally grown fertizilier (i.e. feecees and dead animals) which has been sold to the american public for fucking lawns (the devil! rebel against your suburban conformity! Your lawn serves no uses unless your a mansion dwelling farmer in England!) and un-edible druit bearing plants (like roses and flowers). The nitrate does not put the stuff back into the food that we need (minerals, etc...). Plus I believe the UK more openely accepts natural medicine.
Hate to reply to flamebait, but India has the top technical university in the world plus people willing to put in long, long hours to work, plus hours that work in our favor (a boss can get stats on a game in 8:00 AM here right when he starts, spending all day brainstorming, even though its 5:00 PM there).

Pretty cool toy. I was thinking of getting one but prefer my PC for the obvious reasons. o_o'

Me: "I want to get into the gaming indus..."
Journalist: "Don't! ITSATRAP."

And once again AOL offers us another paid service any person can spend 15 minutes learning to get absolutely free and legal! Pity time and warner.
What about the 1997(?) remastered versions?
