Looking around the site, they've also got some interesting stuff: http://www.newscientisttech.com/article/dn9080 You could store 1,250 Terabytes per cubic centimeter.

Still in the research phase, though.

Theres some crazy things out there. but we're finally starting to act like science fiction movies

*cough*... anyway. Yeah, holographic data discs are pretty cool too.

(Mene-Mene, your nickname could be "Beans" )

Appropriate somewhat with his username being "Mene-Mene", I thought.

Netbeans - even better.

Now I hope you guys don't pick some malicious and scornful name for me like:

"Lazy Laz the Spaz"

Believe it or not, I actually made up JM for myself, so I wouldn't mind that. I'll tell you what it comes from someday.

The military is working on a soldier's outfit that somewhat resembles MasterChief's "exoskeleton" on Halo. Heard about that?

With the other technology mentioned in JMan's* first post, we can now have soldiers going around dressed in Halo uniforms and carrying 1250 terabyte PocketPCs.

The shortened version - Ace of course.

How about it, Ace?

And Arch - that sounds like you work for Novacom or Andromeda.

anyways that reminds me of magic-words,what are the magic-words you use in your code,incase you don't know the magic-word for all .java files is *dum dum dum* 0xCAFE 0xBEBE ,or in other words "cafe bebe". personally i never use magic-words much but here is a cool one 0xACE 0xFACE.

oh and about hack-this site ,i think i think i still have a username there,i believe i am a journeyman(or maybe a master)hacker there,but since i became a Christian,i really don't like sites like those and i don't go there anymore.but if you want some interesting articles on security stuff that site is good(you almost always need to know something about hacking inorder to secure the code you make ,even if you don't hack).

EDIT: sorry about the edit but i just found this http://www.wired.com/news/technology/0,61889-0.html

and Laz, they work for me.

but seriously. I honestly think humans will begin to live in virtual environments. work will be done over them. play will be done over them. you can be anywhere, be anyone and do anything.

As long as Microsoft doesn`t make the operating system...maybe a unix distro.

*News Alert*
The Sasser virus has been seen in birds. The virus made a mutation from a human interface 10 years ago into a bio-electronic version of itself. It appears that mosquitos now are the carriers of a new `virus. Doctors fear it may merge with Malaria. Doctors are calling the potential result the Sasser-Malaria virus. No reports yet on whether cows can contract the disease.

In other news, the U.N. has determined the writer of the MyDoom virus is guilty of genocide and distribution of WMD. If you remember the MyDoom virus made the jump to biological 5 years ago after the electronic version was modified to travel across VoIP and IM networks. So far health officials are recommending the use of Ham radio for communication since the virus spreads from person to person over the internet. No word yet on a trial date. W.H.O and Symantec labs - in conjunction with Grisoft, Kaspersky, McAfee, Canada, US, and the UK health departments - are working on a vaccine.

I seriously doubt that two multi-billion dollar broadcasting companies work for you.

I think the "virtual environments" thing is a long way off - if ever. Doesn't sound like a world I'd like to live in either.

Anyways, why not call you "Clubs"? just to mess with peoples' minds

Why not call him all three different names? That would really mess with a person's mind. (Not spade's - someone scanning this site)

the founder of that site is a real criminal he just got convicted of stealing 5000 credit card numbers with the intent to distribute he is now serving 24 month in prison: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeremy_Hammond

and incase you don't know there is such thing as the hackers manifesto , you have to be real twisted to believe stuff like that: http://www.mala.bc.ca/~soules/media112/hacker.htm.

unless you just want a good challenge these guys are as evil as they come.

and about the nick name ,i have decided to keep my name,but i think being called ace or club or hearts is cool (it could seriously confuse someone just lurking at ccn)

anyhow, it's not gonna be sudden, but gradual. early Brain-Comptuter Interfaces (BCI) will (and are) starting with giving mobility back to the disabled.
next might being having to work on a network and Brain-Comptuter Interfaces (BCI) are just more efficient. Why type code when it can appear as soon as you think it. Edit? no problem. just a thought away. do you think you'll be able to compete with coders using BCI's when your stuck with a keyboard and mouse?
Gaming might really start to soften many people up to the virtual environments. People already spend hours upon hours in Virtual environments (ala World of Warcraft, Second Life, etc)... is it so hard to believe that once BCI's become popular they won't do the same?

now what I do see is a rift beginning to develop among people. you'll have your Techies who spend much time "in" computers, if not all. Some might go as far as to essentially just be a "Brain in a vat" existing primarily in a virtual world and maybe visiting the real world via a "robot." on the other hand, you might have the "technophobes" who prefer to live life as a biological entity, instead of a digital one. Maybe these groups might be just class differences, or who knows, they might even segregate into seperate races, depending on the political climates. The Techies might just leave this planet and chill in orbit, spread to other systems, etc. after all, what limits them? Also, if AI tries taking over, only the Techies will be able to stop them.

I'm actually strangely comfortable with living in VR. dude.. gaming would be pretty intense.
