your computer gives you an orgasm.

LOL. This doesn't surprise me at all. I totally fit the bill. I use emotes and abbreviations ALL the time. Maybe I should stop just so I don't perpetuate gender stereotypes

As any geologist will tell you, the earth has gone though heat and cold cycles for MILLIONS of years. Europe used to be a jungle. Half of the United States used to be covered in ice. There have been hundreds of mass extinctions. Does global warming exist? Yes, of course it does. Global warming is a natural phenomena. Is global warming a problem? No. Not if you can adapt. (and I'm pretty sure us big brained humans can) I for one welcome the "new" warmer climate. I hope my ancestors get to ride giant lizards through great underground cities.

These people probably have all the Dwarves, Elves, Haflings, Orcs, etc locked up so their smells can be captured. We should save them.

I say we make them sew their own clothes out of discarded sheets and military tents.

We were doing this in the US in the 50's and 60's http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rKvAmdl5y-8/S7H4Q7hQ3vI/AAAAAAAACu8/mWciGP9Xw3w/s1600/Tapeworms.jpg 20 years from now the Chinese will be taking green tea extract pills and wondering why Americans only drink loose leaf organic tea from mexico.

My first thought after reading "razor hydra" was that it was weird for slash dot to have a story on new 8 bladed shaving technology.

Its illegal to hand out naked photo's of your ex to people on the street, it should be illegal to do the same online!

but does it run linux?

But neither one of them have made their DNA open source... As evidence by the fact that I cannot currently make a child from Linus's or Stallman's DNA.... Hypocrisy I say! You think there's a computer powerful enough to compile a gnu/linus? I for one welcome the new theoretical overlord.

I'd take a HTC smart phone over blackberry any day of the week.

How long to re-fit?" -- Kirk "Eight hours. But you don't have eight hours, so I'll do it for you in 35 minutes." -- Scotty, "Do you always multiply your repair estimates by a factor of thirteen?" -- Kirk

I wouldn't say that Mac hardware and software is substancially better than anything else you could get. Mac computers are using more and more of the same stuff that PCs are made of. Claiming that Mac software is better is only a matter of opinion. You can look at a million different things. If you want something that is compatible with everything,(software and hardware) and has tons of support...windows is the way to go. If you want security and efficiency use BSD or Linux. If you want to be coddled and never have to worry about upgrading hardware or using different versions of software, get a mac. I also think it is insane to spend tons of money on a mac system when that same amount of money could be put to better use. I do not want to have to buy a whole new computer system everytime I want an upgrade. And open source software is great, and free.
