I think there is truth to it. Making the same game over and over gets stale. I know some people still love it, and consider my talk treason, but even the inventor of the IP is starting to think they're lame now. I just think the gaming companies would be better served (or, more accurately, the gamer community) by getting new content.
Id like to add that I don't mind sequels- they continue the story. But, I don't like games that are just released and released, and released... over and over the story resets to 0 and you do something similar in a different story line.
Why do gaming companies have to make 100 versions of the same franchise? I loved zelda, sure... infact, I still have the gold cartridge for it. But, its not the 80s anymore. Come up with something else.
why does voting have to be so complex? Just make a basic electric logic system with buttons for obama, mccain, and various state/country props. It should not be normal computers, it should not be paper, because either are easily corrupted.
I'm not saying the system would be foolproof, but I am saying that simplicity is stability.
but wouldn't it make sense, if you have say, 10 servers, to keep 9 of them on and 1 off at all times, doing maintainance on the one that is off, and constantly rotating that?
It happens on other 3g devices. Blackjacks, blackberries, tilts, pc cards, pretty much anything that uses UMTS or EDGE will buzz. Perhaps they built in shielding for it in the iphone 3g, Dont know.
I note that it occurs whenever data is transmitted, and that the sound changes depending on the sequence of data being transmitted, so I kind of think of it as the equivalent to the old noises that 56k modems made on the phone line.
All of those super computers they use for these sorts of calculations....
I think the scientists just use the crays to play 4000 instances of world of warcraft at once, and they just phone in the results of "oh, yeah, blackholes can only get really really big" "how big can they get?" "Umm... like... a hundred billion.... STARS."
Heres my system specs:
-intel q6600
-asus p5q deluxe
-4 gigs of ram (gskill)
-old harddrive from 2003ish (one i bought failed)
-windows XP pro (runs in selective startup)
My boot time is 22-26 seconds, even with my old junker hard drive, with a new one I expect that number to drop. You just need to turn stuff that you dont use off. I'm considering using a solid state disk for the OS, and a traditional high capacity HD for apps. I think that will help drop it atleast 4-5 seconds, but I dunno.
So if you take a photo of bob you ARE BOB?
This brings identity theft to a whole new level, its like how african villagers are afraid cameras will steal their soul.
Id totally buy one, but I'm an ATT customer, and they havn't released one for ATT yet. Ill gladly swap my sim into one if i could find an unlocked one.
I guess scientists have finally heard what people say after they hear about studies into the migratory patterns of certain species of goose.
And they did it!
Honestly, fuck dojo. Javascript does not need libraries. Old people get their hands on every language and try to make it more complicated that it needs to be / is.
It does not matter if they're unable to do it effectivly now. The thing is, they are trying to. That is why this whole thing smells of bull shit. What the flying fuck happened to civil rights? More and more we see governments walk all over them with no explaination whatsoever. This is unacceptable. We not only need to bill burned, we need to see someone fired for drafting it.

WHO. GIVES. A. DAMN?
So... this horrible deadly plague of terror only affects the products that microsoft is trying desperately to grandfather?
Huh... Imagine that.

You a PETB member?

Does tribes display tribal warfare accurately?
Does counterstrike depict an accurate representation of a counter-terrorist offensive?
Actually, I have no idea if it is, I just kind of assumed.
Is it?
Anyone know?
What made you think you had the right to kill that murloc, buddy?
You're coming downtown with me...

yes we do. theres like two sci fi mmos that are playable.
Looks like PETA finally got what they wanted. Damn lobbyists.
That video was boring. Why dont they just make a mini helicopter to decelerate the thing? Or is the air too thin for that?
gmail. nuff said.
Just make your own web page if you dont like the igoogle one. Embedding google search in one you make is easy.
