I'm very interested. Seriously. Does anyone remember the game for the Apple II called (I could be a little off) Trans-Canada Trucking. You drive a truck across Canada, picking up stuff and what not. It was all text based - Kind of went like this:
Welcome! You are in Calgary, you need to drive to Edmonton to pick up some product.
> Drive to Edmonton
Your truck is not on.
> Turn on truck
Truck is on.
> Drive to Edmonton
Your lights are off
> Turn on lights
Your lights are on.
> Drive to Edmonton
It is raining; your wipers are off.
> Turn on wipers
Your wipers are on.
> Drive to Edmonton
You arrive in Edmonton and pick up your load. You need to deliver it to Toronto... and so on.
Anyways, this Garbage Truck driver still sounds better than quite a few of the new games. I would prefer this to the new 50 cent game.
I really don't get it. One of the major problems with Vista was the new driver model. Drivers sometimes were unavailable, and at other times were buggy as hell and caused the OS to crash. Windows 7 uses the SAME driver model. Why will this be any better?(it's not MS's fault either, but rather buggy, immature drivers.)
I admit, I have never tried either Vista or Windows 7, but from what I have read, Windows 7 is Vista with a new UI. The foundation is still very much the same. I'm not saying that either Vista or 7 is good or bad, but I find it puzzling how so many people hate Vista, often based on nothing, but in the same breath will praise Windows 7.
I honestly don't get it. Maybe I'm missing some huge new feature that Windows 7 offers. A new taskbar? That's okay, but not cool enough to warrant spending hours reinstalling an OS and apps. I hear calculator is new and improved wow-ee.
There is, but it only works if you are logged in as AC and if you post either a goatse pic, a long post about Obama's shit, or an instruction manual for someone of african decent.
At least you would have an idea what your rights are, and the rights of the publisher. As it stands now, you have no rights, and really, so idea of the publishers rights either, becuase, really, who reads the EULA?
Red Faction "if I have a fricking rocket launcher I can make my OWN doors, dammit!"
I played that game soo much. Awesome game. You bring up a good point though. Why can't I blow up the level using my rocket launcher? It was a great game mechanic; it made every game unique. Red Faction allowed you to blow holes in the floor too to move between levels. There were secret rooms that you could only get at by blowing a hole in the wall first... Great game.
Google is trying to compete with free be being free. Did you even read the title of the story? And someone modded you insightful too? Can anyone manage to read a single sentance?
I think that's to keep the viewers engaged. Also it allows them to effectivly fill two shows. The first one where they get is wrong, and the "fan favourites" that is slightly better.
I don't know about you, but I get a monthly statement from the power company telling me exatly how much power I used last month. This system works great. I get mailed a "statement" showing how much power I used. I don't need a twitter account, or even an Internet connection! Plus, I don't have creepy people with nothing better to do examining my electricity usage.
You should call your power company. They might be able to do the same for you!
I think that you are missing the point. My point was that turning lights off for one measly hour is a waste of time/effort. If you want to make long term changes, great, but don't turn your lights off for one hour every year and think to yourself that you are saving the world.
No, "carbon footprint" is still just as much as a buzz word now as it was 2 years ago. Take a look at this garbage: Turn off you lights for an hour to save the world This garbage makes people think they are making a difference, when in reality most power plants take hours to spin up, so powering off lights for a measly hour is unliky to make any difference at all, let alone anything meaningfull.
she doesn't listen to me when her 'intuition' tells her something.
Just tell her that I said that the computer doesn't know if it's turned off or hibernating, so it couldn't possibly have any different affect than just powering off the computer. Also, I don't take talk-back from my women. (Now show her the back of your hand.)
I'm pretty sure that Tomato is in the same boat. According to the Tomato FAQ, Tomato is Linux based, and according to TFA Embedded Linux devices seem to be the target.
No, they are suing becouse this is a grey area in the legal system and isohunt is tired of getting harassed my various right holders. They initiated the lawsuit so that a judge would finally decide if they run an illigal business or not.
I could be misinterpreting this, but this is not about individuals. In Canada, as I understand, it is not illigal to download copyrighted works for personal use. Under Canadian law, commercial infringment is still very much illigal, but infringement for personal use, and no financial gain, is not illigal.
The issue at hand here is whether or not an individual/corporate entity can link to a copyrighted files (or in this case link to a file that has a link to look for a list of people that might have the file you need).
How exactly does the money supply shrink? Do you Do you load it on a plane to never see it again? Does the government scoop up a whole bunch of money and light it on fire to remove it from the supply? I don't think the government has enough money to simply thow it away to prevent inflation.
Bonus question: What is the game plan to pay back the debt?
I second the Sirius issue. I have had mine for almost exactly a year now, and I love it! It is about the cost of one CD/month and it is worth every penny.

That's pretty awesome. Hats off to you good sir!
If you are logged in using standard SSH port settings, then you should be okay. According to TFA, the worm adds the following rules:
# iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 23 -j DROP
# iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 22 -j DROP
# iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 80 -j DROP
If you telnet/ssh connections are working, and you can get to the web page, then you should be okay.

It's cold compared to the 15 million degrees that are needed for conventional fusion. As I understand, the primary output is still heat.
You are in denial.
Sounds like you need a Yak Bak!
