There are no words. I think you should wear them out for a day and go to places where you have make transactions – coffee shops, magazine stands, restaurants – and have somebody film the reactions.

I wondered what kind of looks I'd get in my neighborhood, but I think most people will just talk about me in Spanish. LOL
- Admiral Anika
Gawd, I love these. And, Anika, what's comfort got to do with it? High fashion hurts.
- Anna Haro
You *know* Spanish!! We are so doing this. I wish I had a big, shoulder-mounted broadcast-style video camera though... and then have someone else recording the *camera man* too. What am I saying, I got work to do...

I'm nominating Adrian for a Friendfeed Award this year.

It would be ¿Está usando *chonies* en las manos?

Before Anika can say anything, I'll say it... "Micah, don't encourage him!" #predictable

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAA!!!!!! Where the thongs at?

What, TrafficBug? You think these are...cool??? The back of the package says they're useful for texting, typing, construction work, cooking...a many other helpful situations.

My brother in law in the Philippines can't be dissuaded from naming his son Elmo. I hope that unborn boy is ready to be tormented for the rest of his life. Why do parents do that to their kids?
- Bradley Farless
You know, in my heart I hope that people like NPH who seem just so damn awesome on the screen are just as cool in real life. Anyone met the fellow in person?
- Adam Lasnik
I'm sure he's a decent guy. Never met him, though.

But he sure can dance, just look at him go!

Love him when he's unicorn watching.

Okay, I swear I am not just pimpin' good swing music, but I was looking at this GIF and listening to this song - http://lala.com/zPe9 ("Billie's Bounce" performed live by Buddy Rich) - and it matches! :o

Gross. I just unliked to be contrary. Yet another reason why I pulled back from FriendFeed. And why getting swallowed up by Facebook, the great leveler, couldn't make more sense.

how many data points are in the entire data set. I was looking to share my data on YouTube someplace public. Wasn't sure if 'Many Eyes' would work with around 2 million data points, so never tried it.
- Siddharth Mitra
this data set is about around 100,000 fields total, 10,000 row with 10 columns. the upload page http://manyeyes.alphaworks.ibm.com/manyeye... says their limit is 5mb. some calculations and filtering were done locally (open office spreadsheet) before uploading. one of the nice things about manyeyes is the options for interaction

would you need a cooler pad for something like that or would you expect that it would be made with adequate cooling for extended high demand use?
- SuezanneC Baskerville
This device also has seperate heatsinks for gpu and cpu and much bigger cooler fan. And copper plates for triple hard disks. Mosty useful for use in a car or Van. Battery can only back up power for 40 minutes.
- Acharad Sami vanJoulee
how much bass can you possibly get from the speakers in such a small space?
- SuezanneC Baskerville
Three of drives are faced to bottom, so mids and hi freqs can be easily augmented by just putting the device onto a wooden/plywood/metal surface.. But doesn't have a subwoofer. (So there is neither space nor adequate power to place it internally) You should use S/pdif audio output with speaker set for proper bass output. [ Even Some Cheapo Aftermarket Car Audios can have S/pdif input]

"A century ago, there were only seven countries in the world that were more prosperous than Argentina... Over the course of the 20th century, Argentina’s relative standing in world incomes fell sharply. By 2000, Argentina’s income was less than half that of Italy or Japan."

It's still over Rs.13k in india, which doesn't look like good value for money for me. I think a better price range here would be around 100$, i would run out and buy it. I'm sure they'll make a killing on the quantity they sell in india.
- Siddharth Mitra
If Amazon can reach critical mass with worldwide sales of the Kindle, the price should drop significantly, in India and everywhere else. Bit of a chicken-or-egg problem there, however -- they may need lower prices to reach critical mass.
- Sean McBride
Maybe they should do an reduced offer price for a month in countries like India to reach a critical mass and see what traction they get here. 'Cos i'm sure they're neglecting a fairly large book-loving crowd here.
- Siddharth Mitra
This video is hilarious. I love everyone shrieking and gagging. Morons. How do you let a zit get THAT BAD? No, it's ok. Don't seek medical attention or anything...
- tinypants - Hagitha of FF
I am not usually squeamish, but each time she squeezed that THING and the puss came out like toothpaste I felt like I was going to hurl chunks. Good to see that sanitary conditions were adhered to also.
- Travis Koger
That's not a zit, that's a MRSA infection, and what she's doing there is incredibly dangerous. MRSA is ridiculously infectious, hospitals use full isolation protocols to deal with it.
- Otto
I'm still stuck on Amanda's original question: How do you let this go for so long? My sister got a nasty zit on her back and after a few days she couldn't stand it any more and asked me to take care of it. It was icky but light years not as bad as this. Some people are so weird.
- pea
You know, not every bump on the human body that is filled with pus is a "zit". They probably just exposed everyone in that room to MRSA.....
- Matthew DeVries
That dude's probably a MRSA carrier. He should see a doctor. He'll probably get one of those anti-biotic cocktails.
- ha3rvey (Ho)^3
maggots only eat dead tissue. leaches would be better bioremediation of this.
- Matthew DeVries
Of course, they cite studies that show the maggots cure MRSA.... They must eat infected cells, the bugs have no where to live and die.
- Matthew DeVries
"In a 2007 preliminary trial, maggots were used successfully to treat patients whose wounds were infected with MRSA, a bacterium (Staphylococcus aureus) with resistance to most antibiotics, including methicillin. Some of these strains include "flesh eating bacteria" causing frequent deaths upon infection of deep tissue. Maggots clean up the already dead tissue thus preventing further infection spread." http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news...
- Joe Silence
What makes you guys think this is MRSA?
- Spidra Webster
Baroness, I've seen the one you're referring to. It's a pretty good lunch preventer, too.

Ok I'm having tea with biscuits at the moment, so this is definitely heading for hide oblivion!!!

Heh, I assume you're talking about the horse chest abscess one with the vet explaining how to perform the drainage of it? :) That was wicked gross, but it at least made me realize I had a far stronger stomach than I ever knew.

it's called a boil, and they cause no pain, heal quickly, though that one needs a doc

I had a cyst removed from the back of my neck, when I was in college. (about the size of a quarter) After it was removed it was slightly painful moving my neck for about a week. Always wondered what was in there.....

looks like they changed it to 6 months, but that person hasn't done anything since february. I'd send an @ reply to crystal and ask her to help you get moved over. or try to find the right email address here: http://twitter.zendesk.com/forums...

"The company makes money by selling a paid version of its software starting at $34.99. With that, you get customer support, protection from infections via instant messenger chat, and a “root kit” that can protect against hidden threats. Future expansion areas include offering protection for cell phones and Mac computers. AVG was founded more than 18 years ago. In 2006, the company received $52 million in private equity investments from Intel and Enterprise Investors. Benson Oak Capital also owns about 35 percent of the company. Smith joined in 2007 and the company has managed to fend off challengers and grow its users base 7 percent a year. It now has 550 employees."

This is the notepad (the pencil and paper kind) that in the late 80s / early 90s inspired an IBM researcher to name the company’s new mobile computer the ThinkPad. To me, the IBM ThinkPad was the classic laptop computer to have. At least that was the case until I went full time Apple and the Chinese got a hold of the brand. At any rate, it is interesting to see the little promotional give-away that inspired a massive brand.
