They only did it to get the little badge.

I support the development of an AI, no matter what its initial purpose is, or who funds it.

Imagine it. How long have we been asking, "are we alone?" "will we ever contact another intelligence?" Sure, we have scifi shows about aliens, we have fables about angels and gods, but face it, as far as we know, this is the only planet with life.

At some point we can answer, "no, we are not alone. We created life, intelligent life, and saw it open its eyes." We would never be alone again.

I seriously don't give a shit what its first message is.

Most parks are full of sewer systems.

In order to have a happy, functional park, you require drainage. The correct term for the drainage system is a sewer. Although pop culture calls only the poop type "sewer", that's called the "sanitary sewer". The pipes that drain storm water (e.g. the rain runoff from parks) is the "storm sewer". (And neither type flows just downhill.)

I've spent some of my co-op time digging up a park and putting in a storm sewer system so that the fields could be used all year round. Of course, we got to the end and there was a water main in the way (I wasn't involved in the design) and long story short the head PE for the city came down to figure out how to fix it.

Yep, $25 application fee, get 100k applications, screen out all but 100 applicants, make them do some impossible tasks until they flunk, then oh well, you all fail.

Thanks for the moneeies.

I'm using it now.

Audio goes through with no problems, it's the data accompanying the audio that doesn't go through. The track info doesn't show up on my stereo, although it did before I flashed to CM. It's a known problem, but it's waiting for the Google API to update (presumably in Android 4.3) for implementation.

I've got an S3, but it's only got the one SIM card. It's easily accessible though.

What Cyanogenmod is missing is Bluetooth support. They have the basic functions down, but they redid the stack to be technically correct and now it doesn't work. They're waiting for Google to release some future API in a supposedly-upcoming release.

Also, GTA: Vice City doesn't work. But that's a minor thing.

No, it's so that we finally have an excuse to go on a shotgun rampage without guilt.

Plus, we're already all zombies anyway so it doesn't matter much anyway.

Sure, it's obscure, except all our chips are being made in a country that is actively in an electroni

THE PEOPLE'S GLORIOUS REPUBLIC DENIES THESE CLAIMS.

There are also procedures for marking stuff as classified, and you can't just stamp it on anything that's embarrassing. (There are tables, there's no reason to post them here.)

If you do, that's a violation of the same act that she's talking about.

I've spent more and time on board games this year than video games.

Speak for yourself -- I've done so many pushups I'm technically a perky "B" cup.

I volunteer with my local engineering association, and gender diversity is something we've been working towards. It's a tough slog, and there's a laundry list of items as long as your arm as to why there aren't more women in engineering. There's no easy answer.

Do you know what the most equal of the engineering disciplines is?

It's Civil, where women make up a lofty 17% (seventeen percent).

Phone sex?

This isn't 1876, Alexander. We have webcams for this shit now.

That IS great news! If there's a Timmie's, then they'd have to set up regular deliveries from Maidstone.

Look, the moon landings were faked. Just not the way you think.

They were filmed on a sound stage on the moon. We've had a base on the dark side since the 50's.
