Mythbusters is Pseudo-Science at its worst. They claim a veneer of authenticity, but make broad assumptions based on very limited and highly flawed experiments with no controls groups. It's an entertaining sideshow at best.
Yeah, that's funny. You know what's also funny? The treadmill I bought 3 years ago and never used is in mint condtion. I've never had a problem with it sitting there under the pile of clothes in the corner. I read that 24 Hour Fitness has TONS of problems with their treadmills going down, but mine just keeps going without a single issue. I guess they just bought the wrong brand. Stupid idiots.

I concur. A lot of the 0 ratings are just as worthless though, particularly for free software. I usually read what the person has to say, though. A lot of the time the people who rate programs low are doing so because they're too cheap to buy the full version. They whine about the limited utility of the lite version.
I concur 100%. When it came to ditching my turdburger iPhone 3G, the thing that kept me from considering the Android phones was that the hardware was even sorrier than the 3G was. Someone ought to take HTC by the shoulders and shake them until they start putting batteries into their phones. I've got a feeling Samsung will come out with an Android phone worth buying at some point soon, though.
I haven't seen a single AT&T fanboy. It's all Apple 'tards either saying that AT&T is outright lying to the FCC, or that AT&T has some sort of Svengali-like hold over Apple, due to the contracts that they were coerced into signing. They fantasize that somehow the FCC will declare AT&T's tyranny over their beloved Steve Jobs invalid and the real reign of the iPhone will begin with liberty and justice for all. Because Apple wouldn't screw over their own customers, like they have time and time again in the past, would they?
We can get by without gasoline; it will be an infinitely harder time getting by without plastics. As stated, most of modern medical practice is based on the assumption of cheap, sterile, disposable items (although I *do* hope a lot of that is recycled - biohazards melted away first, of course).
We can make plastics from corn oil. Not a problem. Most medical waste is incinerated, for obvious reasons.
Working at the Microsoft store in a mall where there's an Apple store would be a painful experience.
Yeah, it'd suck selling 10x the number of computers than the Apple store did. You wouldn't have time to annoy customers browsing your store, like the Apple store does. Also, I'd hate to have to be the one to have to stock the game section. That's a ton of work.
With decent hardware, people always have the option of breaking their software and running whatever they want, which is what a lot of us iPhone users do. With hardware, you're stuck unless there's an upgrade available. It seems like there are fewer and fewer hardware upgrades available for phones these days. They're not as simple to upgrade as PDA's I guess.
And by the same token, manufacturers should stop shoveling crap to us and crank out some hardware worth buying. As much as I despise Apple's closed mindedness, I despise the crappy hardware coming from HTC, the crappy OS coming from Samsung, and the unfinished work coming from Google and Palm even worse.
If knowledge isn't shared, we're all more ignorant because of it.
But isn't that true of all knowledge? Why should academic works be held to a different standard as any non-fiction work. Or fiction, or artistic work, for that matter. Yes, Einstein stood on the shoulders of giants, but so did Jimi Hendrix.
Night Driver was a 3D game. I don't know what your definition of 3D is, but I'd have to say that 3D approximates the rendering of 3 Dimensions, which it most certaintly did have, however rudimentary.
I think he was careless after being so used to the routine of publish or perish that he forgot who his collaborators were, and that was his mistake.
But he was also convicted of bringing data in his computer to China, even though he was warned by the university's Export Control Officer not to. That doesn't seem like an honest mistake. He was warned that this was a violation of ITAR and he chose to do it anyways. I have a feeling, no proof, that this was the more egregious of the two sets of charges.
Looking at the article, this system would allow interoperability with other systems without requiring new repeaters. Basically, they're adding everyone's bands into the radio, instead of changing out radios and repeaters. Not to say that they will never transition to an 800Mhz system, but if we can get interoperability now with a simple handset swap, why wait for it?
Oh really? Oh, so that's why the National Enquirer was sued out of business! Oh, that's why the paparrazi don't harass public figures! Wow, thanks for clearing that up! I didn't realize we had a constitutional lawyer here amongst us! Lucky that!

I'm fairly certain that the shotgun would be plenty capable of denying service.

It's AT&T that's causing these iPhones to blow up! Now maybe they can break that contract and get out from under AT&T's yoke of oppression!
Have you checked your apmd settings?

It's only present in the SMS client that HTC made, not Windows Mobile OS.

The OP was asking about the oldest 3D game, not the oldest 3D FPS.
Was Red Baron older than Tail Gunner?
Yes, because it's commonsense that the only human knowledge is science. Why would you even be required to support such an obvious statement?
Your opinion My opinion :)

Night Driver came out in 1976. It was the first 3D game I'd ever seen.
You shouldn't boil coffee, Philistine.
Hopefully, they won't chuck him out a 12th floor window as Apple is known to do.
