Yeah, but it's what you DIDN'T see in the quote.
One thing I'll never say about Tomb Raider is Wow! Blockbuster movie of the Year!When I saw how horrid she was, I said Angelina Jolie is incredible! You don't see acting that bad every day!The Must-See Movie Event Of The Summer!!! Sado-masochists everywhere agree!The studios would like me to say If you only leave your house once, do it and go see Tomb Raider -- holy cow, it's just that good!!!!!!!!! but they didn't offer me NEARLY enough dough.It changed my life forever!! I can never love theater again!
It's all in the editing.
Nope. Use stored proceedures so that you don't have to do this.
Then, your web interface, your VB desktop app, your mainframe batch job, everything all calls the same stored procedure interface. The only time you have to touch code on any of these is if the inputs or outputs to said stored procedure change. Otherwise, database schema changes, table changes, none of it even remotely affects any methods you have to interface with the database.
Stored proceedures generally need things like variables, control statements, loop capability, stuff like that. SQL doesn't have those.
You'll notice, however, that most other DBs implement sql-like extentions that make sense in their own context; Oracle has 'Procedural Language SQL', SQL Server has 'Transact-SQL' and so on.
I haven't looked at it at all, but I get the impression is that what these guys have done is given you the ability to point to PERL scripts and say 'run that when I tell you to' which is NOT stored procedure capability, but close.
If all your after is speed, then append to a text file. Appending and grepping your results is a hell of a lot faster than MySQL.

The New Zelda

When I got Final Fantasy VII for my PC, I thought it looked great. I believe it was Gourard shading; no textures on the models, at least.
FF VIII and MGS, however, looked like poodoo, with low-res textures.
I think that 3d will become ultimate when there are no textures; it's all shaded polygons. After all, get enough polygons, shade them correctly, and it'll look like your texture.:-)
Zelda looks to be one of the first games to pit gamers in a convincing cartoon environment, complete with all the dazzling animations, particle effects, and exaggerated look one would expect.
Sure, why not? Kids are stupid because most people treat them like kids.
Case in point. My daughter turns four in September. She'll be starting JK. She can read, she can count (including by basic multiples,) she can identify and differentiate between such things as similies and metaphors. She can use computers better than half the people in my office. We take her to the park, and somebody says "How old is she?" We tell them, and they say "oh, so is MY daughter!" who is invariably some blank eyed kid sucking on a pacifier.
The difference? My child wasn't raised by Jerry Springer and Maury Povich. My child didn't go 'potty,' didn't want a 'baba.' My child used the toilet, and asked for a bottle. Guess what? Treat your kids like adults, and you get adults. Treat them like retarted babies, you get retarded babies.
Any interception of this could be seen as an attempt to circumvent your digital security.
Yup, so turn off those routers, kids, cuz they most certainly intercept and decode your packets.
Shut the fuck up, idiot. It's a PUBLIC Internet, and you have no more anonymity than you do handing a handwritten note to a passing person and asking them to 'give this to Bob if you happen to see him.'
The DC did ship with WinCE. Or, more to the point, developers had the ability to use it.
Consoles don't have an OS hardwired in; the OS boots when you put in the boot medium. On the DC, you could use, for lack of a better term, dcOS, or WinCE for Dreamcast. Whatever you burned to your CD would boot. and, say, DOA2 would use a later version of dcOS than Soul Calibur, cuz it came out later.
WinCE for DC made for easy porting. One that leaps to mind is Virtua Cop (2, I think.)
Your example simply throws money into the mix. If the guy in my second example wasn't going to speed until the cop convinced him to let him clock said speed, it's entrapment.
Nein, that's not entrapment. Entrapment is enticing somebody to do something illegal that they wern't already doing.
This is not entrapment: "I, a cop, was hiding in that building, and saw you speeding. Here is your ticket."
This IS entrapment: "Hey, that's a nice car! Why don't you open her up, and I'll clock you! I've got this nifty speed gun! Don't worry, I won't tell the cops!"
Look at it this way; if this were guns, designed to kill people, Roche would be up on profiteering charges. But it's drugs, designed to save people, so instead of being a necessity, it's a luxury. Therefore, charge what you will.
And if you really want to, don't call it 'AIDS drug.' Call it 'BAIDS drug' which was designed by some kid in Brazil, cuz he didn't want to pay the licensing fee. It's not an AIDS drug, it's a workalike.
while some people will pay $3000 for a brand name.
Let me quantify this further: Some people will pay 3000 dollars for SOMEBODY ELSE'S EXPERTISE AND GUARANTEE.
And if you argue that if you don't know security, you shouldn't have a server, I can extend that arguement to if you can't write your own kernel, you shouldn't be using an OS.
and so on. Not as bad a Vesa (Scitech Display Doctor!) but definately a harkening back to the 'choose your sound card/choose DMA/Choose IRQ/chose MIDI/hex - Awe32/IRQ5/DMA1/HighDMA5/GeneralMidi(wavetable2)/3 30Hex) sort of thing.
As so many other Canadians have chimed in, broadband is thriving north of the border. I love Rogers@Home, except for the few months a while back when they were totally fuggered up....
My cable's been solid as granite for the last several months, and I've had nothing but love for it.
The format isn't illegal. DivX, don't forget, is a failed attempt at making pay per play DVDs that went away a few years ago.
DivX;-) the format isn't illegal, either, but DivX;-) the process of making copies of movies 'at or pre-dvd release' and releasing them on the Internet is highly illegal.
Holy CRAP, is that real? Christ on a fucking crutch! If anybody took that sort of patronizing tone with me in person, let alone the affected arrogance "Oh, you mean a computer console? What other kind is there? Oh, one of THOSE. Well, you run right along, sonny, I've got a Community to run." Wow.
Slashdot Mirror
Yes, but they didn't have permission to. Isn't DeCSS using a proper Xing key?
The only Pirates! that will ever be is by Sid Meier. We want a sequal, Sid!
Cuz that's the movie that Osamu Tezuka saw 80 times and decided he liked so much. Details

Just as an interesting aside, it was Disney's 'Bambi' that spawned Japanese Animation.
Why not just bring counter-suit under the DMCA for unauthorized circumvention of an encryption scheme?

One of the requirements of the higher ratings of the Orange Book is copious logging. Ridiculous amounts of logging.

Honestly, that reads like a parody.
Ye gods, that would rock. I've a whole library of games that I love, and only have options for Glide and Software.
Now, obviously it's not going to be a speed up, because the joy of Glide was that it was an abstraction of the card itself.
