If I buy a bit of software from apple or microsoft, it has to be understood that I control the security. I bought the OS. I bought the machine. I own that license.

I can tell you to not watch "Quantum of science"
I tried to watch it and gave up mid-video because I don't think I ever saw a more confusing talk.

If you find the topic interesting, I would recommend "Cellular protocol stacks for Internet"
Like the summary says, it's meant as an introduction to those who are not familiar with all these barbarians mobile phone protocols.

Designer Creates "Euthanasia Roller Coaster" 409

Posted by samzenpus on Wednesday September 21, 2011 @04:22PM from the if-you-have-to-go dept.

disco_tracy writes "Lithuanian amusement park worker and current PhD candidate in London's Royal College of Art's Design Interactions department, Julijonas Urbonas, has made a design for a hypothetical coaster that could be the future of humane euthanasia. Urbonas says that it is engineered to give a person a way to die with 'with elegance and euphoria.' From the article: 'The three-minute ride involves a long, slow, climb -- nearly a third of a mile long -- that lifts one up to a height of more than 1,600 feet, followed by a massive fall and seven strategically sized and placed loops. The final descent and series of loops take all of one minute. But the gravitational force -- 10 Gs -- from the spinning loops at 223 miles per hour in that single minute is lethal.'"
