There are some psychologists that suggest that humans do have (and always had) a 6th sense. Just as the structure for seeing is the eye, this sense's structure is know as the vestibular system. It's supposed to control your balance and coordination (supposedly the human sixth sense).

I run a dualboot system with Windows XP and Ubuntu. On XP I use Opera almost exclusively, but on Ubuntu I just use the native version of Firefox because I can't get plugins to work right on Opera (in Ubuntu).

I think one possible application for this is bypassing download limits attached to IP adresses by some services, yes?

I've never seen those HTML tags either, but the outcome is nice and organized. Thank you for the info.

I was actually looking for something just like this. Thank you so much. Now, just one question to take it a step further. Is it possible to write a shortcut that terminates one application and launches another? For example, I use RocketDock on my desktop because I prefer it to the native quicklaunch. I want to be able to launch games off RocketDock, but whenever I do, there is a strange flicker and I'm forced to ALT+TAB back to the desktop and shut it off manually. Is there a way to write a shortcut that will both close RocketDock and launch another app?

I also hear that you couldn't read in a dream, but I've always been able to do it. The only thing is that sometimes if I read something in a dream, then turn away, then look back at it again, it sometimes changes or disappears.

For those of you who claimed that it increased your browsing speed, could I ask what the original speed of your connection is (e.g.: 56k, 128k, 512k)?

This is pretty cool stuff. Just think of everything that can be done with such a powerful framework. It's also nice to see that instead of coming up with a phone (as many people thought they would) they came out with a cross-manufacturer cross-carrier solution to make phones more open and powerful.

Amazing indeed. Definitely the coolest and most interesting thing I have seen all week. Thank you so much for introducing me to this. Images of crystals (google images)

Thanks for the great explanation. I've always wondered what DLLs are exactly and why it is catastrophic whenever a windows system has errors related to certain DLLs. Now I have more of an understanding of that and can sort of see why. Again, thanks, and keep up the great work.

This is pretty cool. It's like something right out of a science fiction movie. One can only hope that it doesn't pave the way for an apocalyptic age of totalitarian rule and loss of civil liberties.But in all seriousness, I am curious as to when such scanners will start appearing en masse across the world, or at least the major first-world countries that can afford them.

I also don't see Artificial Intelligence (at least at the level portrayed by movies) as a reality within the near future. Also, I don't really see it as much of a threat in the first place.

I completely agree. People who actually get 'addicted' to video games are either lacking in intelligence or have some sort of legitimate mental problem. I think, however, that the problem is that every person has their own perception of this 'addiction'. Honestly, most people who don't play video games see anyone playing it for a prolonged period of time to be addicted, when in fact the person may not be. Regardless, as I understand there is yet to be any scientific proof found actually proving that one can become addicted (dependant) to a form of electronic media. Another thing is that if a mother believes she has 'lost' her son to a game, then there is a much more serious problem than just the game itself. On a lighter note, I found the quoted guideline to getting over WoW addiction from the first post to be quite amusing.

I don't see myself using something like this anytime in the future, but knowledge is always a good thing. Thanks for the tutorial.

Thanks for the tut. I too am afraid that activation emails may be marked as spam by gmail, but I think I'm willing to give this a try and see how effective it really is.

Just as a bit of trivia, PHP is an endless acronym, as it stands for 'PHP Hypertext Preprocessor'.

I don't use Firefox much (I use Opera), but I never knew that this feature was available. Maybe I'll redownload and see what's been added to Firefox since the last time I had it.

Very nice, especially for beginners and/or people who don't have money to spend or don't want to resort to pirating software. You should get some sort of award for this. Here, have a virtual cookie.

I used to have it as well. I don't remember how to access it exactly, but there was a feature that actually tracked how long you played each game (if you launched it from XFire), and you could get a forum signature that displayed those stats. Something like this.

Informative post, unfortunately I pretty much knew things contained in there prior to reading it. I do however have two questions.1) I once saw a problem in a precalculus textbook asking to find the square root of i. How would one go about figuring this out this?2) I'm not sure if complex numbers are outside the scope of this topic, but what are they exactly? I remember once hearing someone talk about graphing 3 dimensional objects (e.g.: a cube) on the complex plane. He said that it might seem strange to do this at first, but it is sometimes done in certain sciences (like physics) not to measure the objects, but to measure degree of complexity ( ).

Sorry I have to be the one to say this, but I honestly think that Halo is one of the most overated game series of all times. Halo 1 was a good game, not "great", just good. What made people go crazy about it was that it almost single-handedly gave life to X-Box Live. Without Halo (or some other equivalent), X-Box Live never would have become as huge as it is today. Halo's multiplayer is a ton of fun, but again, it's not "spectacular" in terms of technical achievement or player freedom. Before anyone responds violently to my criticism, please realize that I am not an anti-Halo fanboy, I just honestly think that it's not as great as people make it out to be. "Fun" - yes. "Best game ever made" - Definitely not.

How long has this site been running? I'm just wondering, because one time I decided to host some files on a site that like this one that seemed great, but within a month it shut down because it couldn't support itself.

That is a very deep question. If life were like that, it would be so interesting and you'd have so many different opportunities to explore. As master_bacarra said, however, you would not have constant (unchanging) social relationships and contact. That could drive a person crazy or at least bring down their spirits to an ultimate low. I guess I would choose to live life just as it is now, because the risk of the alternate possibility you mention might be a little too much. It's very intriguing though.

I had a first degree black belt in Goju Ryu Karate after about 6 years. Unfortunately, school got in the way soonafter and I was unable to continue. I would like to get back to it some day though.

Awesome effect and so easy to do. I wish there were more tutorials like this around.
