I just installed the persona add-on and checked out a few of the themes. You're right, most of the non-solid ones like the Marshall Amp and the DJ one with the turntables on it are annoying because they distract the eye and add visual clutter to the workflow.
Additionally, the graphics from the themes as described above have that pixellated, dithered, low-res look to them. It's like stretching a 400x300 picture to desktop wallpaper.
And that's why we'll never see a full sized vehicle.
Wrong. In fact, it reeks of the spectacular(yet somehow still operational) failure known as the V-22 Osprey. Here's an obligatory video which showcases the V-22's stability ~.
Note that the video in TFA is a cutesy CGI video and not actual footage of the flight of a prototype. In actuality, the vehicle won't be as efficient as a suicide booth, but it'll will be much more fun.
Your joke is funny because the majority of the FBI are Catholic, and Notre Dame is a Catholic university.
Which explains why they do whatever the hell they please. They're doing God's work ridding the world of the infidels and faggots which dwell in the closets of their minds. They answer to nobody but God.
The SNES Star Wars trilogy were all awesome, especially Empire and Jedi. They pushed every resource the SNES had with the dead-on soundtracks and the 3-d vehicle scenes, and they were long and challenging.
Yup. For example, in TFA, you're looking around and wondering which black guy he is before you see the sketch on the right and figure out what he just did there.
A movie like Avatar can help people form more complex thoughts and ideas, such as respecting people's "religious" views even if you think they are silly.
The Na'vi would be a lot less lovable if they strapped suicide vests on their women and children and sent them toward the nearest Terran checkpoint.
They've always done that, haven't they? You sign up, then they text you a validation code.
I'm all for it as long as it keeps people from abusing Gmail accounts. Google's heuristics are so sharp that they could probably figure out your number even if you don't directly hand it to them.
Two applications go one better than Israeli-style security, analyzing furtive glances to detect, according to the title of the patent application, 'Behavioral Deviations by Measuring Eye Movements,'
Also, I believe there's a law that requires support for discontinued products (class I and II devices?) for something like 3 years. Couldn't find it on Google. Anybody in the know?
I've been an AT&T wireless and 3G customer since the Cingular days. Don't go with them. Their 3G coverage is spotty as hell, even in major metropolitan areas. My 3G adapter went bad and it took them a month and a half to send me a new one despite complaints to customer service. They also still tried to charge me for the time that I was unable to use 3G, though they did give me a half-month's credit (wow) after much haggling.
I moved to a more rural area where other networks have much better support. I'm reasonably close to a tower and calls are dropped all the time, and to even make calls requires luck and skill moving around. People, as well as ATT tech support, tell me that my phone is going bad but I didn't have that problem weeks earlier when I lived in a big city. Could be a coincidence, but others have similar complaints.
One more thing - Once I called ATT customer service and the lady(domestic, not a foreign call center) answered, "Verizon customer service, how may I help you?" I asked her if it was ATT and she giggled and said, "Oh, that happens all the time." It could have been an innocent mistake, but it's possible that the two and possibly others all use the same damn call center.
Why write a book when it will only sell a single copy before being copied all over the internet? Can't be a very successful band without some form of digital media, whether you're signed or produce it yourself.
"Successful author" means talentless infantile hacks like Stephenie Meyer. "Successful band" means a bunch of hand-picked-by-studio-executive androgynous pretty boys playing candy-ass tunes they didn't even write.
You want to be "successful"? Invent a time machine, go back in time, and give away your childhood dancing for the Mickey Mouse Club. Then let me borrow your time machine so I can go back to the '60's when real music was being made.
Long ago I promised myself that I would never again work in a retail environment, no matter how technical it may be. Being treated like peoples' bitch puts a real hurt on your self-esteem. Here are the customers to avoid, and why:
Asians - picky, pushy, with chalkboard-screech voices. They will try to get you to do everything for them.
Arabs/Indians - They will load up shopping carts filled to the brim, then they will just leave. Alternately, they will go to check out, and toss items away one by one when they see the prices rung up. Guess who gets to put all those go-backs back on the shelves?
Jews - similar to Asians above, except that they will insult your merchandise. They will find any excuse to schvitz.
Old people - A combination of Asians and Jews above. They are by far the worst customers of all and they will always complain to the manager. If you see one, run.
Gimps - kinda like old people, but not as bad. Make no mistake about it - they are pissed off and will invent excuses to take their rage out on you.
And now the good customers. The results may surprise you:
Hispanics - Usually polite, very family-oriented. They tend to buy lost of foodstuffs because they make thier meals from scratch.
Blacks - Very easygoing, with well-developed senses of humor. Contrary to popular stereotype, they are very patient when they have to wait or when something goes wrong.
And with garden-variety Caucasians you have around a 50-50 chance. They tend to be impatient.
Kill for gain or shoot to maim, but we don't need a reason,
The Golden Goose is on the loose and never out of season,
Blackened pride still burns inside this shell of bloody treason,
Here's my gun for a barrel of fun for the love of living death.
The killer's breed or the demon's seed,
The glamour, the fortune, the pain.
Go to war again, blood is freedom's stain,
But don't you pray for my soul anymore.
6 minutes to midnight, the hands that threaten doom,
6 minutes to midnight, to kill the unborn in the womb.
The blind men shout let the creatures out, we'll show the unbelievers,
The napalm screams of human flames, of a prime time Belsan feast...YEAH!
As the reasons for the carnage cut their meat and lick the gravy,
We oil the jaws of the war machine and feed it with our babies.
The body bags and little rags of children torn in two,
And the jellied brains of those who remain to put the finger right on you,
As the madmen play on words and make us all dance to their song,
To the tune of starving millions, to make a better kind of gun.
When I read a rumor that mostly fat people were dying from swine flu, it gave me the motivation to lose weight.
No, its only Mexicans who were hit by it. To deprive them of their tourist dollars and punish them for contributing to America's insatiable demand for drugs. Cruise ships were diverted.
But as somebody who abuses Mexican drugs on a regular basis, I must say I'm laughing at all of you who were frightened into getting vaccines and actually being afraid. Pump 'n' dump -- vaccines, Windows security, iPhones, stocks, bonds, the whole fucking economy... Build hype and fail to accommodate the demand, then blame the consumers for being idiots while they try to blame their crack dealer for their own idiocy. the entity with more money wins. You're not gonna die, okay?
Look, at this point the US military is the world's biggest make-work program for idiots.
Hey, come on, not all of them are idiots, only the ones who stay in longer than 1 term of enlistment. Why work for chump change, shit food, and terrible hours with the possible risk of being killed when you could be a contractor working for 60 bucks an hour with no worries of being jailed for smoking a joint?
Once even a tiny fraction of India and China reach a level of development sufficient to afford robots, that will be the end of the US "military industry" controlling anything.
Hell, I'd be surprised if the U.S. didn't oursource all of it's work to China by then. Corporate espionage is only a small price to pay when there's plenty of oil to be taken because, at this point, everybody(especially China) needs oil as much as we do. And the rest of the world will turn a blind eye, because nobody likes Muslims:->
Yes, complete transparency is great for financial workings and driving. But we don't have complete transparency for policy making, which ensures that, say, financial workings can be totally transparent and yet still screw us all because of opaque policy making.
The shill tactic is to counter conspiracy theories with truth. People see your statement above and say "here, here" and raise a glass. But in that case, your truth is merely a distraction from the fact that policy-making is not transparent, it is opaque.
Also, your second line strongly implies that only radicals would believe "the man" is full of shit. Take a look around ya and gasp in horror as you realize that the man is, in fact, full of shit.
The insane are either unable to cope with that horror and become paranoid loudmouths, or they accept it and become one of the "war is peace" sheep who live lives of cognitive dissonance. The ones, aka sociopaths, who do cope get to run the show.

That wouldn't be a bad idea if a behemoth like Google would back the Pirate Party's candidate.
Especially since banks and, say, Oil companies are on American public opinion's shitlist.

Haw! MS is the ugly fat chick in the room. A company would have to be desperate to be with her. Microsoft is synonymous with "cheap".

So that's why fire trucks are red.
According to that diagram, Earth is a little shorter than a Sam Adams bottle from the Moon. So that would make it...a Sierra Nevada bottle's distance?
2 of those so-called "officers" were Blackwater operatives. They should not be considered "agents".

That depends on whether they started using steroids before or after they joined Blackwater.
Indiscriminately fire at anything that moves. Isn't that Blackwater's* job?

I have to show everybody how cool and smart I am because I am a fat neckbeard with a small penis who works at McDonald's.
Since you mentioned it, a Jerk-off might actually be a good idea.
