I just leave the desktop function turned off and use Finder and terminals. I prefer a plain black background. Off-topic, but I will say it again anyway: I really wish I could disable all window decoration and personalize the way windows are

Who's to say that wriggling on the floor in a virtual reality simulation isn't the next Pilates or Yoga? Also, the girl referred to her jogging gamification and navigation app. Isn't it plausible that many more people would exercise with th

Here, here. I've been considering options for adding ambiance to my game, and I think this paulstretch thing is very interesting.

Seriously, the 'toilet seat problem' is merely a side effect of the toilet lid cultural ignorance problem .

I can't help but think that the volunteers would have to be crazy to sign up for this. What happens when you confine four crazy people to a small capsule and shoot them off to a dead planet to eat freeze-dried survival rations for the rest

You not only misstate my assumptions, but seem to miss my point entirely. Here is my point: the original human will not experience continuity, therefore it's instinct for self-preservation will not be satisfied. The best it can hope for

I think that the experience of continuity is what makes these things entirely different. It is the experience of continuity that satisfies my hard-wired desire for self-preservation.

Granted that consciousness is not fully understood, can we not agree that it is entirely manifest in the brain? I mean, you don't believe that human consciousness somehow survives the body after brain death, do you? Even if the cloned memor

While it does make for some entertaining fiction, and may provide some benefits to the living, I do not believe that 'uploading' is a desirable experience. In fact, I don't believe that one can experience it at all. Imagine the procedure (f

I'm pessimistic about this type of technology because it isn't "you" that we are talking about; it's a copy of you ; you still get to die, and I don't think that knowing a copy of your mind exists will be of any real comfort.

It can do whatever it pleases with impunity, and for whatever reason, as long as it sufficiently invokes the bogeyman.

Correct. The shaded version makes it very clear; it's merely an H with a twist.

This is exactly the kind of endless stream of intellectually stimulating but mostly infeasible ideas that manifest in the mind of an intelligent person who consumes a certain amount of cannabinoids. ( I'm not saying it's necessarily a bad t

The human race excels at engineering shovels and hammers, knives and other primitive tools; for anything more complex than that our capabilities are still pretty much infantile. Give it a few thousand years. If we can manage to survive it,

I really enjoyed reading this. I don't really remember being disappointed with toys, but my parents do remember me taking them all apart almost immediately. I had a vast assortment of parts, which I used to build and rebuild and rebuild aga

Excellent advice! I just discovered this entirely by accident, because I grew tired of killing sox every time I played another audio source (and restarting it afterward). Also, turning off the white noise is very uncomfortable once you've b

I used various tiling window managers on Linux, and really admired Awesome (probably because I was writing a lot of Lua at the time), but I ended up settling on Compiz (standalone) as my favorite environment. In standalone Compiz, I had win

Sure, that's the best way, but most people cannot do it; they risk being late for work, or in my case, getting the kids to school. (Actually, to be honest, my only risk is in not having as much time as I'd like before the kids wake up.) A g

The article suggests that it's natural to take two four hour sleep sessions, intermediated by a one to two hour break. I think that this bears out to what many of us are experiencing, and the idea to consider is simply to stop worrying abou

Why do some smart people believe in nonsense? I'm no psychologist, but I speculate it has something to do with emotion-driven self-deception.
