The only real issue with this is that if you don't regularly require bluetooth, leaving it turned on in your phone is an unnecessary drain on the battery.
forcemodels to keel/green is standard practice perhaps moreso in quakelive.
Its not exactly cheating if 95% of the players do it, and the other 5% are constantly being told about it/to do it, partially because its high speed and anything that isn't bright green is easy to miss, and this is not a forgiving game especially at the high levels.
Don't know of any working fps based techniques, but this game is full of techniques that make it easy to learn, nigh on impossible to master, its like chess with railguns,rocket launchers and strafe jumping.
He must be because all the other fuses are ceramic or glass containing a specific thickness wire made from some sort of conductive material that will melt at a given amount of current..
The melting bit is optional if you don't mind being killed by your toaster.
I hope you're not seriously even thinking about comparing iphone games, to pc/xbox/ps3 games?
The cheap arse Wii games maybe, the xbox live arcade games, sure..
But not full dvd titles for the big three hardcore gaming platforms.
People buy apple i* for the same reason they buy acer/lenovo/hp/dell desktops, because its simple, and they're not really required to think about anything more than which model they want.
Apple's slick marketing doesn't hurt either.
I think most geeks are anti-apple because they fear that the high end hardware and pc architecture that they rely on do to do the things only they know how to, could be displaced by ultra simplified locked down fisher price computing hardware.
Just as a note, nortel systems have been pulling this shit for years.
You practically need a service contract to access anything more than sales brochures.
It's a farcical waste of time and money.
A lot of people in the phone industry either avoid nortel, charge thier clients through the roof (if they think they'll get away with it, or install pirated firmware updates etc.
Honestly my response to those parents would be, perhaps the problem is that your community is so exclusive in its social requirements of a member that you have to be deaf to be a part of it, even if you can both hear and know sign language.
I'm not saying that the rest of the world at large is completely in acceptance of people with disabilities (and i know people with disabilities dislike this word, as i have one myself), but as a generalisation the level of humanity and social acceptance from the pulic is constantly rising, and at a point now, where in my opinion it needs little improvement.
Disability is a crucial part of evolutionary variance, without change of all kinds the human species cannot continue. Evolution is like a poker game, and the human race has been changing the rules (some would call it cheating) ever since neanderthal tied a rock to a stick to make an axe, why stop now?
There will always be individuals who are intolerant of difference, they are obviously either lacking the willpower to to overcome their biologic impulses or are socially uneducated
This is despite our genetic programming built over hundreds and thousands of years to cast out those that could weaken the species as a whole.
This is imho evidenced by watching how young children who've yet to be taught social norms and etiquette react to strong visible difference or impairment
Probably try to trade the copyrights with other companies dealing in unix for patents etc and go after everyone that's pushing the modern x86 variants.
Only it won't work because nobody in the unix community will touch this litigious piece of trash with a 20 ft barge pole.
This might make me unpopular here, but the whole letter is poorly worded and written in the wrong spirit.
Initially it's ok, but then it all starts sounding a little bit desperate, and by the end it's demanding and almost threatening.
Imo.

Yep, bout right.
Wordpress gets a bad rap, because bad sysadmins/developers don't keep it up to date, or enable comments but don't enable akismet.
But yeah Visitors will often be a fraction of overall web traffic to a given blog, regardless of the platfrom that runs it.
Do you make all choices based on which option has more grammatical faux pas, or is this a special case? :P
You miss spelt .DEB :)
Evil Money? I think you mean evil monkey. http://remainsofthedesi.files.wordpress.com/2007/10/evil-monkey.jpg
Sure, just check your DCMA-weilding, judge buying, $1000 a song, ambulance chasing, dime bag sniffing lawyers at the door.
Oh and your guns, and any venereal diseases you happen to carry.
Welcome to the sun burnt country, have a meat pie and a beer.
Some parts of my girlfriend are silicone based.
I'm kidding, this is slashdot, i don't have one.
What could possibly go wrong with accellerating brain function in rats.
I for one welcome our new super intelligent rat overlords.
WebSockets is currently supported in Firefox 4 and Opera, but disabled by default in both.

Awesome yet another meaning for the letters WAP.
(Wireless Access Point, Wireless Application Protocol)
Sony definitely has its flaws, both moral and practical.
But because if its corporate and cultural diversity it can't easily be considered a whole, the parts are just too distinct.
Their TV's for example are very good solid products, the panels are as good as any i've laid eyes on.
A company of many faces. (I do admit most of those faces are controlled by the fat cat content side of things.)
I think you mean repelled.
Well obviously.. /sarcasm

Yeah i caught it, (prior to reading your post).
