Actually, in the UK there is a massive amount of water that spills straight into the gutter. It lands on your roof, and when you actually start to collect it, you wonder why there is even a water company...
Or it could just be that first person shooters with no depth are easy to churn out. Look at them closely, and there is barely any deviation from the Doom archetype really. You will probably find it very hard to get money for something that is not easy to churn out, so you have to blame the simpletons in charge of the money for underestimating the intelligence and tastes of the 'proles'.
By the way, well done for sounding like a snob on at least 15 different levels:) . Video games don't force people onto the couch, they just give them something to do while they are there, a bit like television, the wireless, the written word, and spoken stories did before them! Apathy forces people on to the couch, because we live in a society where everything has already been done and yet insists on going round and round in circles for no reason while pretending not to notice that it is fucking up everything around it! I think you will actually find that people don't like playing football because...well its fucking boring, that's why. If it wasn't, no one would protest! You see awesome examples of street sport from all over the world on youtube, yet for some reason people have to reduce sporting activity to a scientific process of penis measurement, the logical conclusion of which is the Olympic games, which could quite honestly be used in a hospital for anaesthetic! 50 years ago, most people walked to school, then your generation fucked everything up by deciding that driving and roads was a cornerstone of modern society! I don't see any fat fucks in countries where people can't drive everywhere they go!
I piss on your lawn, and kick over your garden gnomes while I am at it!
What's more shocking is they are allowed to get away with doing such irrevocable damage to their own profits with impunity! I shan't abide it! They should sue themselves for loss of income to the tune of 10,000 US per download, that will teach them to rip themselves off! Scumbags!
I didn't say you should like it, I just said maybe be a bit pragmatic. Like, if I lived in Saudi Arabia, I wouldn't give anyone a reason to suspect I was an atheist. The other choice is take society head on, again nothing wrong with that, but you best have some kind of plan...
But yeah, I would wager that 90% of the history of migration is motivated by not wanting to put up with the neighbours....
Assuming this is something that happened to you, surely if that is the law and the general sentiment around where you are, you should be more prudent about not making it obvious? A bit like, how one can heartily enjoy the occasional spliff, but one wouldn't go blabbering about it to everyone in the world (which is essentially what doing anything with facebook actually is)
Also, move to somewhere less fucked in the head. Just saying...
Thankyou for saying this, I probably would never have come across this fact otherwise. I was vaguely aware that the latin alphabet is actually the western greek variant but not much else... Quite interesting new thread to follow:)
Knobhead, he specifically said if you _ foresee the need_ to make the program international. And he said it in your language. Which is his SECOND language.
Here's a great idea. Stop drinking it when your body tells you when you have had enough. Don't know how to listen to your body? Well congratulations, you are now wired. I guess you'll be needing a branch of government to tell you how much fucking coffee you should drink.
Look, even though I think the song is shit, the cover is shit, the show is shit, and all the people that were involved in shitting all over each other just because they cant be bothered to acknowledge each others shitty efforts are shitty people, I still give shit about this shit because its all right for fox to rip people off when they have trucks of money already, but it's not all right the other way around? Just bullshit.
I actually lived in Tunisia long before I ever saw Star Wars, I once saw the underground dugout style houses with my own eyes, and I have been out to see the edges of the Sahara, and I did not imagine they were portraying a caricature of any of it when I saw Tatooine for the first time. Something about it was slightly different you know....
Time travel is about as subtle a plot device as syncronised dancing. Just because it is in every other sci fi film and tv series, doesn't been it doesn't have to die... really, Back to the Future had it covered, I wish people would stop using it as a serious subject. It is about as sophisticated as the line 'and then they woke up and it was all a dream!'
Actually, I don't think it had anything to do with that. I think it may possibly just be the fact that it is a very strong emotional thing to be charged with representing millions of your countrymen to the world; No matter what you may be thinking deep down about politics, your country is your country, end of. I think people read far too much into what is just one of the highly probable emotional responses when caught in the middle of such a moment.
I can't be the only person that finds this idea horrifically disturbing, can I? That would be like watching a third person view of exactly how stupid I am....
Meh, I completely disagree with everything you said. The advice is not 'become a world class expert', the advice is 'know enough to be able to do what you want, which is probably easier than you would expect. There is currently no such thing in the computer world, it is all an absolute of 'us programmers' and 'them users', which is spastic.
For example, I would probably find it hard to build a bike from a bunch of steel tubes and scrap aluminum and rubber, even if I have a rough understanding of the process. But I do know enough to not have to limp pathetically to a bike service shop if I break a derailleur or bend my wheels or break a spoke, and an appreciation of exactly how all its parts operate means I am not stupid enough think wasting 3 grand on a flashy toy is going to make me ride better. Extrapolate that logic to whatever field you choose.
PS. I also grow nice veg.... but last time I checked I am not on a farm...

This was so hilarious and intelligent that I jizzed into my own eyeballs in delight
Congratulations, you are an insufferable, unimaginative prick. Go and stick your hands in a blender.

Forget the internet, how do I erase something from my MIND? Pass the toilet bleach, would you?

Meh, count the numbers. Human advancement these days can only rely on reversing procreation if anything....
Yes it is. Otherwise we would have the word crowdfunded or kickstarted.
Fucking brilliant :)

I hope that clears things up?

Er.. yeah, damn those horrible homeless people, not being able to afford houses! Shall we spit on them mummy?
It's a good thing this is the internet, because I have a CD wallet full of games here that I could conceivably knock someone unconscious with.
Well I am glad. Just imagine if all the chinese stuff I am buying AVOIDED patents. I would be stuck in the stone age! Zhong Guo shi hen hao!
