What percentage of the people who went computer shopping based off of that "Vista Capable" logo do you actually expect to go through the process of tweaking their machine for performance, not to mention the fact that one if its touted features, Aero, would need to be turned off to make things run at a more acceptable pace?
Well, the vast majority of the people who can't use installs in the form of.rpm and.deb would tend to be the very same people who would rather compile everything from source no matter what. And while being able to see the source is always a good thing, there is still a place for proprietary software. As long as there is proprietary software, there will always be a few people who can't use it, but that's just the way of the world. And on a side note, snide comments about solidarity is a great way to destroy it.
I think you're missing the complaints of others. The energy required to create the hydrogen is greater than the energy that can be released by the burning of said hydrogen.
As the parent said, the game had issues because it didn't seem to hit any of the groups of people who tend to buy things. It alienated fans of the original concept of Shadowrun by not being Shadowrun. It alienated fans of multiplayer FPS's by not including same system multiplayer. It alienated fans of single player FPS's by not including a story mode. But if you can get past all of those (admittedly massive) flaws, the basic gameplay was surprisingly fun. I personally prefer the online multiplayer of it to Halo 3. It has much more depth and strategy involved.
On the PS1 remake, I played through with just one black belt. By the end, he was so overpowered it was just embarrassing. I even managed to kill Chaos in one hit. Well, one attack... it was actually around 20-something hits.
I agree that all personal correspondence should stay personal. However, when acting in their official capacity as a public official, I believe full disclosure should be mandatory. It's as simple as having a personal email account and an official email account. Anything that requires official action, needs to go through the easily archived official email account. Anything personal, doesn't. Quick, simple, and effective. Now lets see if it ever gets put into action.
It's taken them 16 years to go from releasing Street Fighter 2 to announcing 4. It's almost like they're taking a cue from the Duke Nukem Forever dev team.

When you hurl a chair at somebody's head, an exclamation point just seems kind of redundant.

I'm sure he has been googling. He just happened to get... "sidetracked" by some of the results.

When you can't think of a single original thought, buy someone who can.
