Military contract for pulsed energy
projectile pain study 03/17/2005 03:56 AM
David Pescovitz: New Scientists recently reported on the "non-lethal" Pulsed Energy Projectile weapon that fires a burst of painful plasma from up to 2 kilometers away. (Link) BB pal Vann Hall points us to a military contract, unearthed by the Sunshine Project in January, for the University of Florida to conduct a study on the "sensory consequences" of such a weapon. Ouch:

The full capability of these directed energy systems (DE) are still being explored. At their current stage of development, each system has clear non-lethal (ADS) and lethal (PEP) capacities... Our experiments will examine the feasibility of PEP as a new generation non-lethal weapon. Pulsed energy can be configured to produce plasmas of exceptionally high energy...

In the studies described below we will determine the feasibility of using the plasma derived EMP to induce pain suitable to disarm and deter individuals or form barriers to the movement of large hostile groups.

How do you cancel an AOL account? 03/31/2005 10:52 PM
Just for fun, I recently signed up for an AOL account through one of those ubiquitous free CDROMS, and now that I’ve poked around a bit, I’ve decided to shut it down. It’s time to return to the real Internet. But I’m a bit stymied. How do I cancel my AOL account?…

Computer, Cancel Last Command

Computer, Cancel Last Command 10/29/2003 01:15 AM
Mac OS X ships with a neat-sounding feature called Speakable Items. -- supposedly all you need to do is enable a little listener program and you can start verbally abusing your computer. At first only one in every few commands seemed to work. My attempts to issue the command "Tell me a Joke" in a progressively louder and louder voice succeeded only in providing my coworkers with irrefutable proof that my mind is as leaky as a sieve. I thought I might have the volume on the microphone turned down too low, so I went into the Preferences to check it out...much to my surprise, the volume was actually set too high. Once I had the volume properly tuned, the computer began to respond to about 80% of my commands -- at least as obedient and responsive as the average human, in my opinion. When I was satisfied that it worked reasonably well, I called in a coworker to show her my neat new parlor trick. As the Law of Singing Frogs would dictate, the program would not respond while she was paying attention. When she went away, bored by the lack of response, it started working again. My current suspicion is that the microphone is sensitive enough to pick up her breathing, which interferes with the recognition algorithms. Still, when no one was looking I could issue commands such as "Switch to Mail", "Reply to this message", "What time is it", "Log out", etc. and usually get the behavior I was after. Even when it's working properly, however, the Speakable Items seems only marginally useful. It's missing one key feature; the ability to print what I say. Currently I can instruct my computer: "Computer, Switch to Mail. Get new messages. Reply to this message." But until I can also tell Ethereal "Take dictation," I am not likely to bother....
