Electronic voting machines aren't really any better than mechanical ones.
You can tamper with mechanical voting machines so they only register votes for one candidate with two minutes and a screwdriver. And the error rate is about 7%.
Yeah, one of the reasons I like Futurama is that it has a cast of characters that are really likable, that the actors have invested a lot of time into making special.
Oh, another feature removed from Bioshock 2. Here I was looking forward to spending all my ADAM on making a duplicate of Maxis. And there goes the major villain as well. I really like the original final boss - an army of the clones of all EA's in-house studios. I don't think they could think of an eviler enemy.
Thanks to the fact the data is literally "carved in", these discs are playable by a wide range of easily obtainable readers. Not only can you put them in a DVD player - in fact, it's possible simply to put a needle in the grooves of the disc, which gives detailed instructions on how to make a DVD player.
And if I wanted to be irritated, there are plenty of ways I can do that without spending money. For example, I could debate politics, religion, or whether 0.9999999~ = 1 on the internet.
Astronomers use a year zero. It's one of those little irregularities that doesn't make any practical difference, since they're dealing with error margins orders of magnitude larger.
I was under the impression that in the even of a contract being vague, the person who didn't write it gets their way. That principle, if I recall correctly, was used to declare that, legally speaking, tacos are not sandwiches.

Simulations are nice and all, but it's a bit inaccurate to say it "survived a 7.5 magnitude quake" when it didn't actually.
Also, adding in 63 steel rods seems to defeat the purpose of calling it a "wooden building".
Doesn't work on my XP pro box either. Music plays fine, but all I see is a blue screen with scattered 8x8 blocks of gray and white pixels.
Compression does not work that way.

Basically, all automated voting sucks.
I mean, just up and hit it. No warning, no reason, just a wild haymaker out of nowhere. Didn't even see the guy.
Man, that's going to leave a spot.
The creation tools are fun to screw around with.
I tried playing it, but when it was still irritating me fifteen minutes in I figured I had more fun things to do with my time.

And Zoidberg.

Nah, too high res - no challenge. You should have taken a webcam shot through a window and aim it at a crushed soda can.
And the holographic foil on the label has a detailed animation of how to learn the English language when you twirl it.

Uncomfortable UIs just make me irritated.

There's a bit of dispute over whether or not the Lord of the Rings was ever covered by copyright in the US at all.
Ah, but that isn't the reason the lawyer is trying to back out of the agreement.
One might even interpret that as an implicit agreement that it is, in fact, proof his client was guilty. Which might be eligible in court.

Tiber Septim?
ibiS Tempter! Of course.
Get me Jack O'Neill on the line right away!
Why didn't they just randomly replace images requested by the "addict"'s computer with goatse?
That's a shock therapy that would actually work.
Jury nullification, anyone?

And what do we do with the excess atmosphere from Venus? We ship it off to Mars, of course.
It's a bat or a butterfly - anything else indicates mental issues.
As long as you include fusion as a part of nuclear, I agree with you 100%.
Actually, it isn't *that* difficult to train a cat. Most people just don't bother.
Oh, and you know the science fair classic? Not the ant farm, the volcano.
Yeah, Solomon was all over that. Proverbs 25:20.
"Like one who takes away a garment on a cold day, or like vinegar poured on soda, is one who sings songs to a heavy heart."
Dude, Gideon is the first example of someone using the scientific method.
I suppose, though, you are unable to appreciate the irony of your statement.
