But what if when you exercise (Energy Out) your body says, "Hey, the environment requires that a lot of fat is needed to keep up with this constant exercise, so I'm going to have to make a lot more fat to keep up."
This might explain in part why people who stop exercising after doing a lot of cardio for months tend to balloon up in weight very easily.
The body is smarter than we are- it responds to the demands of the environment.

No, I'll bet it was because they don't play any actual Sci-Fi, so they couldn't call it that anymore.

Apparently the key phrase here is "some parts of the brain."
Those parts didn't include the ones that were supposed to keep my roommate from failing out of college while he was playing Tetris.

Scammers Target Neopets Users 122
An anonymous reader writes "If you have children that play on the popular virtual world game Neopets, you might want to warn them of a social engineering scam gleefully targeting 12-year-old kids. Neopets users looking for rare items are sent private messages from the scammers, who direct them to sites hosting keyloggers & trojans. They then use the infected PC as a means to get to data the parents might have stored there, be it credit card details, Paypal accounts or online banking. Seeing the screenshots of some of these people talking about putting these children into botnets is just unbelievable — if ever you wanted proof that people up to no good online will go to any lengths to get their hands on some money (or even just feel good about outsmarting a 12-year-old), here it is."
