It's a perceptual bias. You don't hear about people who use them responsibly because that's boring and won't be reported.
Normal people don't talk about guns for no reason. Not everyone is comfortable with guns, and it can come off as obsessive to bring them up in casual conversation.
A loudmouth retard on the other hand? Quite noticable.
Actually, I think that does help to show just how close gun ownership is to an addiction. Gun owners actually can experience withdrawal symptoms if they lose access to their weapons. And like most addicts, they can get agitated and violent if they feel cut off from their high - just ask any smoker who quit cold turkey.
Wow, when their possessions are taken away they get angry and want them back? Fucking nutters, am I right?
I don't even like guns, but there is no way you are stupid enough to believe this slimy rhetoric. It's offensively transparent.
It would seem harder to coordinate tracking of four balls flying around the room.
Nope. Sony applied the KISS principle here: The orbs on the end of the wand have RGB LEDs inside so they can differientate themselves by colour. It's actually pretty easy to track them.
Not really. Emotion was pretty easy to figure out.
You missed the point. Figuring it out isn't the problem, it's how different the hardware is from the native platform. The more different, the more complex it is to emulate and the slower it will be.
For example, the PS2 doesn't conform to the IEEE-754 standard for floating point like a PC does. Which means every single FP operation must be dealt with to handle these differences or compatability will be broken. Guess what type of operation is most common in a videogame? Suddenly a trivial op is now a major performance problem.
That's just the tip of the iceberg as far as emulation goes. It's never as simple as you think.
I tried to to think of a way to parody this post through exaggeration, but the self-centredness is simply too immense. The light of humour simply cannot escape the black hole of narcissism.
You're totally different of course, indulging yourself with a 400-word diatribe about those contemptous, bothersome whiners. My experience. Look how I suffered compared to these spoiled brats. I I I, my my my, me me me.
Humans adapt to their living conditions. Their standards and tolerances adapt as well. Things will only get easier with time, but people will complain just the same.
What are you moaning about anyway? You're not a war orphan. You don't starve in the street. Entire generations would have considered your life an unbelievable series of divine luxuries, yet here you are posting on the Internet about your utterly pathetic problems to condemn others for their slightly lesser ones.
Relativism is a great rhetorical tool, isn't it? Take it far enough to make yourself look good but no further, and you're golden. Perfect for self-centred whining!
It's really, really important to read the EULA. It's not that people can put anything they want into it, but it's fairly close. Short of signing over constitutionally protected rights, anything goes. And the First Sale Doctrine is just that, a doctrine - not a federally protected right.
People can indeed put anything they want into it. That's the beauty of a hex editor.
Pretty good news for me actually, since I now own several multinational corporations.
I suspect the biggest problem is shitty parents. Children don't decide what they eat, their parents do. If a child is eating junkfood like a Hungry Hungry Hippo, who's to blame? The pair of idiots who fed it to them.
I laughed out loud at this. Who do you think you're fooling?
Attempting to validate a mistake by pretending it was intentional is one of the most pathetic and transparent excuses out there. It reeks of poor self-esteem.
It's actually sad to see an adult use it. It didn't work on the playground when you were ten, it doesn't work now.
Slashdot Mirror
Not just in Soviet Russia. You are the product being sold to their advertisers.
What I *am* saying is that the "pirated app" numbers don't translate directly to anything else - not lost revenue, not even potential lost customers
Gathering useful information would require time, effort and thoughtful analysis.
67% is nice and dramatic. Pirates can't talk back anyway, so who cares about accuracy right?
Oops, guess we shouldn't have phased that out.
The subplot in the reviews is more coherent, more dramatic, more interesting, and has better characterisation than the movies under review.
I think it's an additional layer of insult.
The reviews are much better than the movies.

Seven. I think it's limited to four PSM wands though.

It's odd sometimes how gut feeling and instinct end up being correct.
Nope. Confirmation bias is perfectly normal.
I'm quite certain that you're wrong!
Will you be able to compensate? You just knocked over 300,000 dollars of hardware.
The two main GPUs in that price range can push 108 and 128 gigabytes/sec respectively. Is that not enough?
Haha. That freedom is one we already have.

Sued for watching a Uwe Boll movie. My god, haven't they suffered enough?
Funnily enough it's a synonym of the correct word. So it does mean exactly what he thinks, yet is still wrong.
Ah, English. :)

Reality has a well known liberal bias.
Thanks for the suggestion. I wonder where you learned that trick?
Could it have been... the very first line of the two preceding posts?!

The reality is that people choose to be obese
