.85 inch HDD (http://www.cnn.com/2004/TECH/ptech/03/16/toshiba.record.reut/index.html). :o

Supposedly going to be used for cell phones and stuff. Just the precision they must need to make something like that boggles my mind.

solid state is surely easier ... but if they got this 'down' with regard to magnets etc it'll be wayyy cheaper

What weird script have they added to the forum now??? The title I typed was: '[OT] OMG TINY!'.... They added a script so titles can't be all caps? That's stupid. :rolleyes:

The research team employed extreme ultraviolet (XUV) light pulses to excite atoms

What do they do to excite atoms? Get very small feathers and tickle their tadger? o_O

LOL @ Rince

Okay, when electrons in an atom become unstable, they enter 'excited' states, making the atom more and more excitable and thus more excited. D:

I forgot everything else about Chemistry, so bugger off. :p

It's strange - when I have a few beers, I get 'unstable' and normally get 'excited' in the presence of the opposite sex :D

Ironically 100 attoseconds is about as long as it takes for your plane to take off in the presence of the opposite sex :D

Im taking the voodoo porn back now and heres a random generated insult just for you -

You aren't even worth the words used to dismiss you. Do yourself and everyone else a favor: dress up in a bear costume and wander through the woods during hunting season, you bucktoothed bubble-brained butthead.

Dear .Cyl0n,

They say no one is irreplaceable. That, however, is total bullshit, as you are instantly replaceable, .Cyl0n. Calling you "boring" doesn't do justice to just how tedious you are. But suffice to say that you couldn't even entertain a doubt. Your presence always made me long for your absence. You're about as much fun as watching a troupe of chimpanzees vomiting over each other. You're such an asshole that kissing any part of you is called 'rimming.' You get carried away with your own self-importance. The trouble is, you don't get carried far enough away. I've had many cases of love that were just infatuation, but this hate I feel for you is the real thing. You have a condition known as Optical Rectalitus. That's where the nerve in the eye crosses the nerve in the rectum. It gives you a shitty outlook on life. Remember, I'm better than you and always will be. It's not my fault, just a matter of natural selection. I guess the mental hospital tested too many drugs on you. No one likes you, even your dog ran away from home. .Cyl0n, one day I'll look back on the time I spent with you and wonder "was I really that desperate?" good-bye, and good riddance to a criminal waste of my time.

Adios Asshole,

Nexx

Dear Kyle,

It is with regret that I write this letter of farewell. It's not that I regret leaving you, but that I regret ever dating your sorry ass, Kyle. I'd like to go on being with you, but I've reached my limit on yawning. Still, you have an even disposition: you're miserable all of the time. You could write the story of your life on a piece of confetti and still have room left for a list of your interests. The best thing about sex with you was the post-coital cigarette. You're a legend in your own mirror. You think you're out of this world - and everyone wishes you were. You have about as much class as a bucket of mucous, and are as charming as finding a dead mouse in a loaf of bread. You should have treated me with more respect. Someday, it's going be my tax dollars paying for your gender reassignment treatment. You are the Starship Enterprise of stupidity: going where no idiot has ever gone before. Kyle, the understanding that made it possible for people like me to tolerate people like you has vanished. And so, you may kindly vanish, too. If you ever need me, please hesitate to call.

Good-bye, you waste of skin,

Nexx

stretched it into a second


that second then equals 300 million years...


Meaning the earth is about 16 seconds old on the stretched scale.....
