Wait... so by pirating i am at risk of being injured or killed? Isn't that the risk of driving a car? That doesn't seem mild for file sharing.... did I miss something?
Does anything involving RMS?
Reading the wikipedia article another user posted, I see they weren't registering domains but rather reserving them for 4 days. I just saw the new whois pointing to network solutions and assumed it was registered.
4 days is better than a year, but still completely evil.
I hate those people. I once stupidly used their site (because it was the first name to pop to mind) to do a whois on a potential domain for a business. The name was simple, my parenters name and my name, and surprisingly not taken. Then I found out why so many people hate these guys. When I did the whois network solutions registered the name I was searching so I now had to either buy that name from them or wait a year for it to be free again. What assholes.
Sucks for the lower downs involved, but I can't help but smile.
The project now has a software model of "tens of thousands" of neurons - each one of which is different - which has allowed them to digitally construct an artificial neocortical column.
They say they are able to excite the model and see a reaction.
For example, they can show the brain a picture - say, of a flower - and follow the electrical activity in the machine.
What I want to know is if the simulated reaction to some stimulus is turning out the same as the reaction of a real human brain to some stimulus as viewed by an MRI or something. That would be cool if it did.
Plus I don't want anyone fiddling with my car, good intentions or otherwise. Still an invasion of my property.
Exactly. It's even worse to think of a bored beat cop coming to my door, glancing into my house and feeling me out when I open the door, all in the name of him "friendly" "educating" me about my wireless security.
Why not just stop by and give a "friendly" "education" on anything else that isn't illegal and they feel I am doing wrong? LIke, say, "educate" me about my front lawn's landscaping, or say my political veiws.
I don't think I am alone in the slashdot crowd for wanting to cops to stay the f*** away from me until a law is being broken. Is that too much to ask?
Do you say "my car are out of gas" because your car has many parts?
Truckers in England would probably say, "My lorry is out of petrol."
