If you make drugs/guns available for sale, you are selling drugs/guns whether or not you actually sold any. That's probably the kind of reasoning they used.
Y'know, I never did see any of those studies about the proven effects of the third brake light. You've never driven behind an older vehicle at dusk, have you? Many times it isn't clear if their brakes are on or if it just the running lights. Having a third light that only comes on with the brakes makes it clear that their brakes are engaged.
Halo 3 was huge because it is at the climax of the story. It can't help but sell. Why do many sequels fail? They are the same character in the same world but with a new story. The old story is done and gone. Halo 2 is a different kind of sequel because it continued the story of Halo: CE and Halo 3 finishes the story. Just by playing Halo: CE and Halo 2 one can figure out the basic premise of Halo 3. The tag line says it all. What would Halo 4 even be about? It would just be a standard sequel.
Most games are a single story. The enemy is introduced, you battle the enemy, you beat the game by finally destroying the enemy. In Halo: CE, the enemy is the Covenant. You battle the Covenant and get introduced to the Flood, which you battle as well. The game ends with the destruction of Halo and the Flood but the Covenant remain, thus Halo 2. In Halo 2, you fight the Covenant and more of the Flood. The game ends with neither the destruction of the Covenant nor the Flood, thus Halo 3. Halo 3 finishes the fight. Then what? Why even go on? The story is over.
In reality, these two squares would indeed not have the same actual (object) color. The light sources are different, so the squares likely are different too if they reflect the same mixture of light. That is incorrect. Nobody said anything about lighting. The text with the image says the discs are different colors with the central squares being "physically identical". If you can point out where it said they were lit with different lights, I will take my statement back.
Actually, it be more like: they work on the engine like it is the original engine and the incompatible Chevy parts in the Ford engine cause it to break down.
Apple isn't actively trying to break modded iPhones. They are doing updates to the unaltered software and it the mods break, too bad.
I love college. I got Vista and Office Ultimate for $15 each. Before that, I got XP and Office 2003 for $10 and $15, respectively. My only regret is my graphics card isn't up to par to do Aero and play videos in Media Center.
No idea? I have an idea. If you look at 3G coverage maps, coverage starts in the center of major cities and expands over the years to include most suburbs. This happens only in major cities, not out in the middle of nowhere. I don't have to have personal experience to know something and not having personal experience doesn't automatically invalidate what anyone says.
They may be building 3G towers where you live but that means they see a market. Why would a cellphone company build a more expensive 3G tower in the mountains when there are many areas with vastly larger uncovered populations? It doesn't make any sense. I wouldn't build a 3G tower in an area with less than 100 people/sq. mile unless I had extra money and coverage everywhere else.
Think about it for a second. He doesn't have broadband access. 3G provides broadband speeds. To download data from a tower at broadband speeds that tower has to have broadband access. Since that tower is in the same area, it likely doesn't have easy, cheap access to broadband. As a corporation, why would you spend money on infrastructure that relatively few people are going to use?
I highly doubt he gets 3G. I live in a city of 200,000 and don't have 3G access. Someone living on a mountain that just got cell service several months ago is definitely not going to have 3G. I've heard coverage can be limited even in cities that do have 3G.
AOL didn't think there were any personal identifiers in the search archives they released to the public either. Yet plenty of people ended up being tracked down from what was in that data. The point being, "no personal identifiers" is not a determination that you have the right to make about somebody else's data. AOL's database also contained highly variable information. It is reasonable to assume that something containing only a name and pay information will contain only those from document to document. Internet searches, on the other hand, can contain anything.
It doesn't care much to know "how the treatment works" but "if the treatment works". That is absolutely ridiculous. Drug companies spend BILLIONS of dollars on a drug before they see "if the treatment works." Spending that much money on something without figuring out how it works is a massive waste of money and will most likely result in something that not only doesn't work but is probably dangerous.
My PDA has pretty decent handwriting recognition and I have sloppy handwriting. My main gripe is having to write long words on their own lines. I've discovered that that if I reach the edge of the screen I can write letters on top of each other and it usually figures it out even though it looks like a blob to me.
Lots of home users aren't exactly smart. I don't expect them to shop around and notice that most places sell Office but a few actually sell the individual components. I rarely see the individual programs for sale.
Actually, my phone currently looks like it is off even though it isn't. The only way to tell is by pushing buttons. The type of screen it has goes completely black when it isn't on and there aren't any flashing lights.

Is this anything like a shopping mall advertising its stores inside of its other stores, a la Dillard's jewelry ads in the JC Penny jewelry section?
Why wait?

It looks like a lot of work if you are an audiophile. I've never done it before, but I would imagine it isn't actually that hard.

Try to make your jealousy less obvious next time.

I don't know who modded me Insightful, but Flamebait was way off base.
I agree. That's exactly what I was thinking.

Thanks for the video. I only understood one word, nanotechnology, but I understood the really big explosion.

What he means is Word is often the only part of Office people at home use.
What if the site is one I liked but they started using annoying ads? I might try to find a good replacement but what if it does the same thing?
