Starting, saving, restarting with the nomonsters switch, killing one monster, and finishing with a kill score of 2400 percent.
Spyro:
Doing stunt glides to "unreachable" spots and gawking at parts of the level that didn't get completely built.
Also, Going to one part of the level, removing the disc, going to another part of the level where a pool is, and exploiting the lack of lakebed to bypass the surface coming back up, thus letting me swim through the air.
come on if you're going to assume a jargonistic mode of speech at least have the decency to collate your letters in the appropriate sequence so as to avoid ridicule from those of us who delight in exposing defects in said sequencing.
Come to think of it I could say the same thing about how the food industry, particularly fast food, deliberately taints their product to make you fat, hungry, and addicted to the food.
Besides Kevin Trudeau, you should also take a look at Super Size Me, as well as Fast Food Nation, two other authors who have nothing at ALL to do with KT.
Except that a "friend" of mine emailed all of his contacts about my association with questionable content on another website, which would have remained anonymous had I not been outed.
Which just goes to show you that RL assholes can ruin in one minute a lifetime of prudent anonymity on the internet.

Except in this case, it's against the law to keep your own spare parts.
...yet...
We already have corporations playing favorites and giving p2p the shaft.
The RIAA is already pushing for ISPs to police their networks, and lobbying for insane damages.
If corporate interests get their way, what freedom we do have will evaporate.
Call me out of hibernation once we find a government OPPOSED to internet filtering...
Short of hacking your save file, it's a good way to beef up your resource counters.

exploiting bugs is my favorite.
Except that I would consider microsoft the ultimate patent troll of all.
Tom tom anyone?

It's because the cheap natural solution isn't profitable and thus it's big pharma's arch enemy.

Except that the lawyers are going to be on the clock every second the lawsuit is in progress.
That has to be taken into account as well.
I'd say that ye olde standards of gross negligence and recklessness should cover any profoundly careless bugs.
The trick is to get them to apply to corporations like MS.
1. Put abuse detectors in device ...
2. Connect detector to self destruct
3.
4. Profit!
How do you handle translucency when you have a Z buffer?
Seeing as both Windows 7 and VMWare are affecting things, maybe virtualization and power saving just aren't all that compatible.
I blame intel for this one.
My point was that if you're ok with a system where patents can be busted by fair AND foul means, then it's a potential slippery slope.
Heck, the rule of law is probably the only thing stopping patent trolls from engaging in outright extortion.
Would you be ok with someone putting a gun to your head and forcing you to disclose your secrets?
Because espionage is only a few steps below that.
alcoa would disagree with you.
Having two kidneys is the biological version of RAID 1
cartels and monopolies behave the same way and have the same economic side effects so my point still stands.
Did you have a snowball's chance in hell of negotiating? Did competitors give them any incentive to be reasonable?
No and no.
Not if monopoly power robs the consumer of bargaining power.
It's akin to letting a majority of wolves outvote sheep on what's for dinner.
Just like I said in my post, I'm talking about ISPs (lookin at YOU charter...) that supply a malicious DNS server.
Is it faster for 0.0.0.0 to give you nothing or for 127.0.0.1 to give you a connection refused?
Any ISP's DNS that mucks about with NXDOMAIN is by definition not standard.
