I would rather play on a Doom 1 engine graphics with fully damageable, realisticly architected environments, then the indistructible ply wood and forced path games of current, well pretty much ever...
I think something like ut2004 except instead of trying to shoot the power generator of the base you literally try to blow the base apart piece by piece. With towers and walls collapseing when enough under structure was destroyed. People could get trapped inside and have to blast thier way out or die inside.
I think it'd be nice to have a Linux that was really an alternative to Windows. Right now there are several distrubutions that are great alternitives to UNIX, but only a few that are similar to windows.
And here I thought the advantage to open source was that other people would do most of the work for you. In the end it is closed source that gets all the good help.
A bad education system is still better than no education system. If you read the article it was about access to information and standing on the shoulders of others. It still showed people who were basically loaners but studied hard and set out to get the information they wanted. Few genius are given the information they need.
Sorry but just locking up the tire is not the only requirement in stopping. In fact it is the least important requirement and only wanted once you get close to and almost at a complete stop.
The important part is heat disipation over long friction times. Most bycicle brakes would melt if you had to stop a bike going 100mpg quickly.
On the other hand, making things illegial creates a black market in which the value of said item increases greatly. This makes the incentive to collect much higher and the probablilty that most if not all of this stuff is harvested from killed whales.
Sorry mister AC, you were just dumb to begin with. But if you find comfort in blaming the school system for your own inadequacies then far be it from me to refuse you that pleasure.
Nobody seems to have the courage of Columbus any more. In his time he put forth a half thought idea that sailing west he may end up in the east. Sold it got the ships and sailed off on little more than a hope that he was right.
Today, we can see Mars. We can send probes there. We have it mapped. We calculate that we could get there by doing this, that, and the other, and we sould need $x to do it. Then decided that because we know we could do it there really is no reason.
That is why Columbus is considered a Hero and the first Mars explorers, while hero's none the less, will get much less noterity. Except perhaps for the Mars colonies once established. Call it stupidity or courage, which ever you like. But with great risk comes great reward.
Education is not given it is taken. If someone is smart and able to be the chronic over achiever that is typically hired by the NASA space program you'll be able to get all that is needed out of even the worst education system. Sure an education system may if it's good make a mediocre person better but it wont make a retard smart or if it's bad, a genius dumb. Of course 97% of the people in the US are mediocre and that is why a good school system and education is important.
Yea, he should wear it on a small clip on his belt. Then if it needs to be warm He could just tuck it into his zipper. That way he just has to unzip his pants and pull out the little stiff finger.
This is where the power of Tivo shines the brightest. Not only do you watch the shows you want, when you want, but you can watch the parts of the shows you want, when you want.
My Tivo made Robot Wars and Junk Wars enjoyable, watchable and not take a full hour of my time.
It's not like you're going to go to the pump one day and fill your gas tank half full and someones going to come out and say welp that's it no more oil.
The cost of oil will continue to rise. Right now its up to ~$66 a barrel and $2.15 a gallon for gas. People were still buying gas at $3.15 a gallon. People will buy less gas at $10 a gallon and even less at $20. At some point though only the people that need it the most will pay $100-$1000 a gallon for gas and you can be sure they will be useing every drop to a maximum effency.
No, were not going to "run out" of oil, but the scarcity of it will price it out of common reach and eventually out of nessecity.
Yea I think something happens at age 21 that suddely our brain power begins to drop off faster than usual. I don't know what it would be either. Guess I'll drink a beer and think about it.

I say start now with seeding the data in googles searchs.
Start searching for things like
"us government tramples peoples rights and supoenas search logs from google"
or
"bush administration invades privacy by supoening search logs from google"
correct the spelling of course.
Hey's from teh NYT. I doubt he even knew what he was talking about.

The draw back of course being they'd become Canadians.

Could it be that the '%' and the 'X' can look really similar.
Benchmarker techs say it is 2%-3% faster.
Marketing folks say it is 2X-3X faster.
It really isn't that much of a mistery.
Eww, I didn't mean to stick it there, that would be gross.

Ohh, great idea. We already destroyed our planet earth. Now lets polute the sun too. Stupid American.

Hate to be a grammer nazi but you spelt "does as well" wrong, and you spelt "against software patents" wrong as well.
"Mono has lingering patent questions. Parrot does as well. That's a strong point against software patents."
I think bashing C++ is what perl was intended to do. Take Bash and C++ and combine them together.
