Did anyone else immediately imagine this? http://www.psu.com/forums/threads/179542-Artificial-Stupidity-won-the-Turing-Test?p=3667247&viewfull=1

What if governments want to look for a pirated copy of Photoshop?

I'm counting the launchers on Docky as icons, since I use them just like shortcuts on a desktop.

I used to use the spare IDE slots on my computers to stress old low capacity hard drives by writing random (non-sensitive) files to them with a script 24/7 until they broke (some old drives seemed to last quite a while). Then, when I started getting errors, I would try to wipe them with random data and when that was done, break them with a hammer/pliers/whatever i had handy to get the disks and magnets out.

Wi-Fi Illness doesn't exist, but apparently, stupidity illness does, and it's spreading.

Damn, I wish I hadn't used all my mod points.

Can I have your permission to use this in my will?

Well, for starters, there are currently over 6 billion non-malaria-proof humans on the planet, and I don't think most of them would consider giving up their right to children just so that a genetically engineered next generation of humans can be malaria-proof.

But if we can make these mosquitoes breed enough and take over the malaria vulnerable mosquito population, we can take a chunk out of the percentage of malaria spread to these humans and their children

Maybe I'm naive, but once quantum computing becomes viable, won't these cryptocoins be worthless?

God here. I just upgraded the universe server to PhysicsOS 1.1. Some users may notice a change in proton size due to the new quantum mechanics engine, but unless your working with the OS directly, this shouldn't be a problem for you.

1: Set up a *nix server at yours or a buddy's house (the latter is best, because your buddy can turn it back on if the power goes out)

2: install OpenSSH on the server

3: Learn to use SSH tunneling.

I told them that correlation is not causation, but they didn't listen.

And while we're at it, let's sue anti-virus vendors for not predicting major pieces of malware. It's clearly their fault that it happened.

While opening a bunch of feed items (including this one) which included several different websites, I was prompted to download "like.php" which is a kind of thing that happens when websites set bad headers...

None of my tabs failed to load, so I'm guessing this came from a rogue advert (?)

I don't have a facebook account though, so I'm not worried.

...and make sure that they steal it rather than pay for it. That way, it will work with their hardware.

Sounds like an excellent marketing ploy for bottled water companies
