Can I play Combat with it? That way, I can pull the good ol' "shoot-him-through-the-wall" trick and then watch when it gets all pissed off and throws the controller at me.
I was all ready to break out with the "whoosh"...and then you had to go and mention fried chicken. Because I believe in fried chicken. Delicious, artery-clogging fried chicken.
Rapleaf has agreed to delete all UIDs in its possession, and they have agreed not to conduct any activities on the Facebook Platform (either directly or indirectly) going forward.
Translation: If Rapleaf wants to see the sun rise tomorrow, they will do *exactly* as we say.
I agree. This topic really should have been from the "Solution-in-search-of-a-problem" dept. There's a large amount of tactile feedback that you get with a mouse which would be lost with this "solution". Thanks, but I'll stick with the "problem".
Claiming how stupid someone's argument is, and then countering with a *completely* over-the-top ad hominem attack...always rich. Sorry, what was it that was lame again?
Microsoft is not the only company that does this. For example, I keep seeing these Apple ads where they Photoshop out all of the normal people and replace them with a bunch of murse-toting douchebags.
Keep your focus on the ones that have a chance to succeed in IT. Your speech should start like this:
"Hey kids, you see Tommy and Butch over there? Yes, I agree, they are mean doo-doo heads. Does it make you mad because they keep kicking your butts out there on the playground? Yeah, I bet it does. I used to have the same thing happen to me too, when I was your age. But I got 'em back GOOD. Wanna know how I did it?"
At this point, they should be putty in your hands.
Translation: "If you people would stop constantly acting like elitist, insufferable, holier-than-thou jackasses, maybe the masses would be more inclined to listen to you and use the software."
I couldn't agree more. *No one* is more irritating than the fanboi in full "blinders-on" mode.
You could probably pick up a Line 6 POD or an old Johnson J-Station on [eBay|Craigslist|whatever] for less cost and hassle than it would take to replace your sound card. Plus, you can plug those into other stuff and jam away without being harnessed to your computer. Also, actual detuning > detuning via pitch shifting any day of the week.

My solution, while similar, would instead employ RPGs (or other appropriate weaponry) in a procedure known as "blow them the fuck up."

I hope that you're completely wrong, but I sadly suspect that you are completely correct.
Well, what the hell keeps fried chicken in the air, then? QUANTUM PHYSICS, THAT'S WHAT!

Meh. I got hit with plenty of "loose roaming black holes" in college, and I'm none the worse for wear. Well, mostly.
Congratulations, you bit on the Google troll. It's the one thing I just can't stand about Google...they have to politicize everything, however subtly.
Portugal?

I thought that Earth was supposed to sound like some screwed-up version of 'All Along the Watchtower'!
Which, of course, begs the question: what's the difference between a shitload and a fucktonne? Is there a measurable difference?
Personally, I'm partial to "shitload."
Usage:
Q: "How much hard drive space is on that box?"
A: "Ah, no worries, it has a shitload of space on it."
Here's another one.
Now can we have the historical documents on MISSILE_COMMAND, CENTIPEDE, and MS_PAC_MAN?

Oh sure, just navigate to the North Pole, orient to the sun, and spin around to your heart's conteSTACK_OVERFLOW_ERROR
There, fixed that for you.
What? I didn't even know they *made* a .06! Must be something like playing dental floss. I'm running .11-.54 in a drop-C tuning, works great.

"Hey, Rusty, do you have Asteroids?"
"No, but my dad does. Can't even sit on the toilet some days."
