@Eric Limer: This might be relevant to add to the article: http://filippo.io/Heartbleed/ allows you to test any site; Useful if you're a sysadmin and want to do a quick check, before having to dive into anything more invasive.

In my original comment I didn't say "don't do it". I said "don't do it without informing yourself", and provided a starting point.

Nope, I've never purchased a sound-card in my life :)

Since it's the first thing listed, before buying an expensive 'Gaming Sound Card' Please inform yourself on when they actually help, and when they don't:

now -that- would be somewhat ironic :D

Hmm, no I really wouldn't go jumping to such a conclusion without knowing what's actually going on. It worked on dirty jobs but if I recall that wasn't as specific as malaria testing, but rather research for controlling their populations in general.

Hmm, I may not have read it correctly, but if she's using a bag with malaria infected blood to feed them later during their life cycle, why does she still have to feed them with her own arm before that point? Couldn't you just put non-infected blood into a similar bag?

Probably my favorite 'Modern' Minecraft builds is still 'Lumina Nocturnale' by TrynePlague:

So, we've all played with silly putty, playdo, soft erasers, or some other kneadable equivalent, right? What do they all have in common? They're fun to use, until you get some dirt or dust on them.

... goddammit

This seems like the next step forward from this study: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/science/scienc… - where they reconstructed the basic image of video footage that a person was seeing.

That would indeed be neat, preferably also not costing "just north of 600$"

Think getting stuck inside an elevator for a few hours is fun? Try this giant glass tube, now extra airtight.

reminds me a bit of this

I have to say that the German voice acting there was very good. All too many English-speaking games and movies have really bad accents, especially to emphasize that they are 'Evil Nazis'.
