So what are they missing now? What's the opportunity cost of all this insufferable coverage of minor insects like Joe Biden and this Alaskan twit? What's the big story of the decade that we're not hearing about?
Your mom revealing that she really didn't mean to bring such an angry child into the world.
That's unrealistic when it comes to PC Games and you know it. And yes, you can resell the game, but that person won't be able to download any updates. And honestly, why would you want to resell a stardock game? If you said EA game, I'd understand.
Loaded up IE8 and seemed to be working fine for a while, until I loaded up Netflix to watch an Instant View movie. Got the good ole Not Compatible screen that you get if you are trying to run anything other than IE6 or IE7 to view Netflix movies. Guess it was too good to be true after all. And yes, I tried setting the site to compatibility mode, and it still did not work.
People play fighting games over the intertubes? Next thing you know, people will be playing games in which tons of people play online on a set of servers and will sit in one area for hours waiting for a particular beast to appear in order to obtain a magical treasure. Crazy talk!
You are half right. Yes, there are cd-keys and yes, they bind to a specific user. But you can install w/o the cd-key, but just will be unable to update your game. Yeah I know, this makes it more of a pain in the butt to pirate the game, but why don't you just support the good companies instead of feeling the need to get your games for free when someone poured their heart and soul into the game. I can see the argument to get around DRM and cd checking, but you are just upset because they won't give you the game for free.
It's all good. I made the mistake of not having a definite subject. Instead I simply said They, which could be interpreted differently based on what "they" refers to. I forgot that sometimes you can't see the direct parent depending on how you are viewing it. Somewhere, my AP Language and Composition teacher is groaning:p
again, I was speaking about Brazil, not the other countries. If you know how to READ, you'd realize I was responding to the guy who said "dont forget brazil!" Geez, I guess reading comprehension isn't required in schools anymore.
If by nothing you mean 50 million pounds then I would agree with you. In fact, the man is a freakin' multi-millionaire thanks to his investments in the buying and selling of carbon credits and his speeches about how in 10 years our entire world is going to be half underwater. Granted, that is an exaggeration, but for instance he suggests that Manhattan is going to be almost completely submerged in our lifetime, and Florida will cease to exist. Oh, let's not worry about reports that this is not likely to happen for another 2000 someodd years. I'm sure Gore in all of his infinite wisdom is closer to the truth.
This clearly establishes that he co-founded GIM. This includes a list of just some of the "environmentally friendly" members of CCX, which GIM owns about 10% of. This highlights just one area of concern, Amtrak, who had to settle with the government over violations of the Clean Water Act. This highlights the fact that Gore makes monthly royalty profits from the Zinc mine on his property, which has come under attack because of the environmental damage that occurs when mining Zinc. Need I go on? If you dig deep enough, you'll find that Al Gore isn't as green as you might think.
I was referring to the buildings that supposedly caught fire but did not collapse, not the other WTC buildings. And the main reason they did not collapse was that their core was concrete, not steel.
Intact does not mean undamaged. All you need is enough stress to weaken the steel core, and then the fire (presumably near or at the stress impact) to burn long enough to cause enough damage to create a break. Then gravity and mass take over.
He's the person who established the Alliance for Climate Protection, and if you don't think they're paying him then you are naive. Also, he has companies that deal in buying and selling carbon emission credits, namely GIM (General Investment Management). GIM owns a percentage share in CCX, which has dozens of large members who are professed as admitting they are heavy greenhouse gas emitters. So he's profiting on "do as I say and not as I do." Let's not forget that if you examine his tax records (public record for people such as Gore who participate heavily in non-profits and such) that he gives a very small percentage of his money earned on his carbon crusade to these organizations. We could also talk about his concerns on his land in zinc mining, dating back to the 70's and occurring as late as 2003. And these changes you describe to his property have only come recently. Even as recent as a year ago, his property cost over 4 times that of even Bush's ranch to run. Let's also not forget that nearly every plan that Gore has proposed has come under attack by people who know what the hell they are talking about (Engineers, Scientists, etc) as being technically unfeasible or so costly that they would be counterproductive to their purpose. So what you say is basically bullshit, or you are just that naive.
The only fanboyism on display here is your refusal to acknowledge the context of the quote and the jargon in it.
Did you not say that? You did disagree that it was crystal clear, so don't try to backpedal now that I have called you out for bullshitting. Yeah, too bad Slashdot doesn't have a -1, Full of Shit...
No, I believe that what Gore said was crystal fucking clear, and people like yourself who love the man despite the fact that while he spews environmental crap he turns around and flies around in a private jet, has a home that costs thousands of dollars a month in electricity, etc to run, and does very little himself monetarily speaking to help with environmental groups, despite all of the millions he is pulling in from his "documentary" and his private speaking gigs. The guy is as phony as most of his other cohorts that he used to work with in Congress. Once a politician, always a politician I say. They may be a necessary evil, but that doesn't mean that you or I should believe half of the crap he spews, including his obviously clear quote on the fact that he took the initiative to create the internet. That's pretty damn clear cut to me, and if you insist on not taking off the blinders, that's ok, just don't turn around call others blind when you are in fact blind yourself.
Again, the quote is crystal clear. "I took the initiative in creating the Internet." Again, it does not get more crystal clear than that. That's what the man said, and he's on the record as having said that. You can spin it any way you like, just shows your fanboyism for Gore. That's what the man said, period.
Gore's bill where he supposedly "created" the Internet was put into law in 1991. The first wide area network, often credited as an example of the creation of the modern day foundation for the Internet, was in 1983. I suppose he created a time machine first, and went back in time to make sure Marty's dad made it to the dance and punch Biff in the face too. But if we wanna get really technical, DARPA beat him to the punch.

Or a really big pot party.

No need. Stardock has never had DRM or used CD checking.

You do that. I want a 10 page report by tomorrow :p

I wasn't talking about Mexico, Venezuela, or Columbia. I was talking about Brazil. And in Brazil, they primarily speak Portuguese, not Spanish.
They primarily speak Portuguese, not Spanish.

Understood it with no problems. Just not buying your window dressing of your faulty logic.

If you think that was good art, I have some bridges in the Alaska wilderness I want to sell you.
