Sorry to break it to you but your "belief" that you are "deeply connected to the history of the broader universe" is a type of spirituality. And, your ability to "see a deep kinship to my fellow humans and a desire to nurture them" is what many who are 'spiritual' but not 'religious' define as a "connected soul". ...just because you don't believe in the Religious fairy tales about what happens to souls doesn't mean you don't have one.

Pfft. How can you trust those TTLs, RAMs, ROMs? You could trivially integrate a whole ARM system in each of them.

Nah, as long as I haven't built it from transistors I won't trust it.

That's what torrents are for.

I followed that link and clicked the generate button returned:

"dramatically plagiarize covalent vortals"

... I think this sums up slashdot pretty well.

You can also just use an already existing technology: Spectral nano-CT

Not quite. MRS is the medical equivalent to NMR.

A higher resolution image gives you less garbage, not more. The reason "western" doctors don't check for these things is that the insurance companies won't pay for it.

I'll bet their legal departments looked at this very closely and the result was "These regulation are idiotic and won't survive this administration, so it's only for another year or so."

The video evidence and resulting follow up studies by the Navy make your case that these are "hallucinations" negligible.

That said, there still is no evidence that these UFOs are extraterrestrial in nature.

My guess is that those that have done a good job of copying Amazon's 3rd party model and don't charge membership / 3-day shipping fees will pick up the slack and crush Amazon.

I found the opposite to be true; people that watched the show seemed to understand that I just see the world a bit differently and am not always bound by 'social convention'. Moreover, rather than being upset by my occasional awkwardness, they are happy that I at least have more EQ than the characters on the show.

From the Wikipedia article that you linked to: "Photons inside superconductors develop a nonzero effective rest mass; as a result, electromagnetic forces become short-range inside superconductors."

Also in the article: Contributions to the mass of a system.
