wish i had mod points.. for some reason haven't seen them in ages.. wtf? have excellent karma and can no longer mod? there are indeed far more mario games.
it depends on who you play with.. there are friends i play hockey with (screw the puck i wanna put as many people as i can through the glass) and there are the people who are actually trying. sadly, the break everyone on the other team method is the one game where that sort of person excels at hockey! halo just makes me give him the humidor and lock him outside till we're done.
Electrical signals don't travel at the speed of light. Ethernet is generally ~.5C. Not entirely sure what the speed for fiber is, but it is also a bit less than C. Just for giggles, I should point out that the sunlight that you see is also not reaching you traveling at C since C is defined as the speed of light in a vacuum. I'm aware that for all intents and purposes, it's easy enough to consider them all as traveling as C since the difference in time is so minute over terrestrial distances. It just gets me when people start a point by saying that the signals are traveling at the speed of light.
They switched from Nintendo once the PS came out. after FF7-9 came out on the PS, they made 10-12 on the PS2. 13 was originally developed for PS2, then moved over to PS3. Microsoft threw a huge thwaq of cash as Square to get them to delay FF13 and port it over to the 360. It is still coming out on PS3, and should have a much higher quality to it since they didn't have to compress the textures/movies as much to squeeze them onto several DVDs (the entire game is more or less on each DVD, the primary difference in data per disc is which movies are there).
more of, there's been this one restaurant in town for a long time, but all they serve is shit. eventually, a few places open up that serve food instead. everyone flocks to those places and stops going to the place that only serves shit. eventually, the place that only served shit starts to also sell apple pie. and they start paying people to eat the apple pie. some of the people who had been eating apple pie at the non shit serving restaurants start eating the pie at the place that is paying them to eat it. the place that still serves mainly shit declairs that they are the best restaurant in town because people are flocking back to them.
If you go by US prices, 359 Euro = ~$510. The Mac mini is $599. i'd rather pay the extra $90 for the better processor/GPU. A DIY RAM upgrade would only tack on another ~$20 or so.
I live across the street from the government center in my county (southern California) According to Verizon, they have full coverage here. When i first moved in I had Verizon and had previously had great coverage at my previous house (a mile or so away). Where I live now, the only way I could get any signal at all was to go outside. If i wanted to be able to actually make a call I had to use the aux antenna that I use while camping in the desert, ~30 miles from any civilization. There are no hills around, according to Verizon, I should have perfect coverage, but I've yet to see anyone who has Verizon have coverage near my house.
Sometimes the companies aren't entirely truthful as to their coverage areas.
the number of lasers has nothing to do with the brightness, just how fast the mirrors would have to be. how would 1 laser scanning the entire surface have to be any brighter than 16 lasers, each scanning 1/16th of the surface? They're still only hitting any given pixel once per frame.
giving you the benefit of the doubt (i currently blame the alcohol consumption), that you're going on Southpark's position that every election is between a giant douche or a turd sandwich, then i agree.. he's a bit less miserable than the last few, but far from perfect.
If not, well, couldn't you find someplace to go get drunk and not be a troll for one single day? no? you can't walk upstairs and have a drink with your parents? ouch. sorry. (not really)
T1s are not analogue landlines. they still use twisted pair, but i doubt AT&T is planning on removing all the wires that are out there.. A T1 uses the same wire, but is not wired into the same system as a POTS line, that's why unlike DSL, you can't do POTS/T1 on the same line. You can do a segmented PRI/data, but that's still digital.
I've worked at places where the cleaning people do their jobs, and places they dont..
In the places where is was a bit disturbing to crawl under a desk, i refused to dress in a button up and slacks since they would be ruined on a daily basis. Places where I don't expect to have to fight swarms of dust bunnies or worse, i have no issues at all dressing nicer. I do however keep a tshirt/jeans in my office for those times when you need to get your hands dirty.
Should all movies be modified so blind people can enjoy them like us bastards who can see? Should all music players be required to blink lights to the beat and show subtitles so deaf people can enjoy the music too (but that would be unfair to deaf epileptics)
The ADA at amusement parks is more along the lines of making sure a person with no legs can get on a roller coaster, not making sure the blind guy can win the ball toss.
There's a point where it's just being stupid to be pissed that you can't enjoy a visual medium if you're blind.
essentially it added an option to have pages install things without the user's input.. since apparently Mozilla users have been hounding MS for that ability for quite some time now.
I was rather confused on seeing the dialogue box considering i manually uninstalled the security holes a long while ago. they were no longer installed but i suppose it's nice that Mozilla wanted to be extra sure. i miss having proper control of my system. this is reminding me (on a larger scale) of the adblock vs noscript wars a while back.

i'd be curious to see where the numbers would lie with used game sales as well.. i know i've bought and lost/scratched/etc FF7 3-4 times by now.
still.. fairly amazing once you put in perspective like that.

i may have to try multi.. single made me wish i was playing kingdom of loathing instead.

I don't either.. don't make ME feel bad!

Back then Tifa was HOT!
At least get your facts straight!

Mac Mini - $549
Open PC - $359
549-359=190
hence the "for 190 euro more.."
read a couple posts above that one.
your math is wrong.
signal travels much slower than you think it does.

the RCA style optical cable?
It's one or the other.. not both.
Then, after you go on about how much you spend on cables, then you say you like lamp cord as speaker wire because all cables are just copper.

stupid trusting of spell check.. It's Asterisk.

for even better computer integration there is HUD as well.

use Astrix. all those capabilities already exist.
