I completely agree, 1v1 sucks really quickly in games with massive levels designed for online play. A RTS with two commanders would be amazing as well!
I spend way more time playing split screen games with my brother (roomate) than I do on online games or single player games combined.
Its hard to find good coop games, as 1v1 gets old really quick. The team games like Halo and Rainbow Six Vegas 2 capture our attention for much longer.
I have no desire to be tea bagged online by a preteen.
Very much like C&C, but with many FPS aspects. You can run around on foot as a grenadier/rifleman/engineer/scout, or drive a tank/jeep/apc, or even be the commander of the operation (overhead view, place buildings, give attack commands).
The game is like mixing C&C with Team Fortress Classic, very fun, addicting, and best of all, free! Game is surprisingly well polished, with several active servers. Different game modes and maps keep things interesting. The game is slightly complicated, but if you start off as one class type, you'll quickly catch on and be able to move on to bigger and better things.
All internet connections are shared, DSL included.
With Cable it is shared at the neighborhood level, with DSL it is shared at the network level. Don't think because you have a direct pipe to your provider with DSL that guarantees you a good pipe from there on.
However, it does provide a shit ton of jobs (and prevents the need for more jobs for the inmates if they were not incarcerated) which lowers the unemployed rate and helps keep politicians in power (and so they look "tough on crime")
There were some profitable prisons back in the day in the south, were inmates were forced to do manual labor on a farm, but all of those programs got shit canned.
Your sarcasm detector is broken.
The point he was making was not that the catholic church is "sick", but that as a society we are inundated with children in sexual/lucid clothing continually. Look at young cheerleaders, I was at a sports game where they had 4-8 year old cheerleaders in traditional cheerleading garb, a two piece: short skit and tiny top. I feel this is a much larger threat to civilized society than some computer images.
What about the article a few months back talking about how the man in India (I believe) who was declared dead 30 years ago by his family in order to reap financial benefits. I tried searching for the thread, but couldn't find it. I'm sure many people in that thread made claims about this never happening in a "modern" country like the US.
AFAIK, the answers were available seperately. When I purchased the book, I also, separately, bought a solutions cd with worked out solutions to the problems in the book in it. I looked around, and could not find them available for sale anywhere else.
Wiley & Sons are notorious in my book for being a bunch of crooks. They threatened to sue me over including a copy of the answers with a text book I was selling on a popular auction website. The sent me an extortion letter claiming if I paid $100 per copy sold and refrained from selling it in the future everything would be forgiven, or else they would sue me in court. It took several phone calls and a letter from my lawyer to get out of the mess. I wasn't even charging for the cd key!
It's Daylight Saving Time, there are no "Savings" only a stupid attempt at "Saving" the daylight...
And in other news, as long as it affects "security" the police/whomever can basically lock you up for as long as they would like. Where is your "Freedom" now?

Actually I might, with a 24" lcd and outputs to my projector.
Also, maybe a game designed for multiple monitors, so we each have our own screen.
What? Mayer of a town of 8000? Running a state trying to secede from the union?

I mean if your family practically disowned you and ignored you throughout life, don't leave them anything.

Hey, we were dating at the time, and I couldn't help but notice it.
You know what PLC stands for right? Poor Life Choice
No its not, my ex GF's PIN is 1234, saw her entering it once at a shop, give her all kinds of shit about that one.
Sure they profit, but it is the government paying for it, not the inmates. That is the important distinction to make.
No, prisons DO NOT make money by housing inmates.
However, it does provide a shit ton of jobs (and prevents the need for more jobs for the inmates if they were not incarcerated) which lowers the unemployed rate and helps keep politicians in power (and so they look "tough on crime")

Never wanted to know who that hot blonde with the big rack was? I'd sure like to track her down ...
