Imagine that you look on your screen and see that your 9 year old son is somewhere on Main St. Well, that can only mean one thing, right? He must be getting a tattoo on his face! Jump in the SUV to abduct him immediately!
If you trust your children this little, it doesn't matter if you know their precise location, you're not going to be happy.
XFL 2.0, anyone? People compete for the chance to play in a game by playing Madden, then get decimated by real football players (it would probably have to be NFL Europe guys, for safety). Guarantee that would make more money than crappy teams full of crappy players duking it out for a meaningless title in February.
My last hiking trip included a pack that ranged between 70 and 85 pounds, depending on what I had to carry for the group that day. And I weighed 160 pounds.
I think this article was asking for numbers and setup information, and probably a lot of other people would be interested in yours if your claim is true. Please elaborate.
No offense intended, but personally I find proper whitespace to make code much more readable. In many cases I find it to be more essential in code than in written English (I take this to be on account of the fact that English is so redundant already, whereas every single symbol means so much in code).
When I'm going through another person's code, it is very irritating to me when that person is a member of your (space|tab)-hating philosophy. Indentation does help with readability.
They could call it the the G4X, or the XG4, or the xG4, or something that would make it seem more extreme (and somehow more desirable) to the masses and at the same time allow people like us to distinguish between new and old.
Move to Columbia and try to get permission there. Or anywhere else. I'm sure you can find plenty of 3rd world countries who don't give a damn (and would probably love to have you there, what with all the new GDP a corporate space program would bring in).
I didn't say anything along the lines of both sides being right. I did say, however, that we cannot assume that we are on the side of right when we are guilty of so many wrongs ourselves. Note the Patriot Act when you talk about a government that supresses individual freedoms. I didn't propose that we should let brutal dictators rule without oversight. (Maybe we should try not to put them in power in the first place, and then prove truthfully why they must be ousted before attacking.)
Before criticizing everyone else, we should look to ourselves. If any one of us is guilty of moral relativism, or indeed of naivete, I am not he.
Your problem is that you believe any country that seems to disagree with the obviously unquestionable righteousness of the United States deserves a royal ass kicking in the name of all that is holy (as deemed by our president). The destruction of the concept of national sovereignty is dangerous, and it is beyond me how anyone can fail to see that. If we have the authority to claim that some country's leader must be deposed in the interest of international security (and we go to war to do it), what is to stop other countries from doing the same to us? We are clearly threatening international security (what with starting wars and all), and we have set a precedent for demanding that any leader with whom an international force disagrees can be thrown out of office in a violent manner.
If IBM can continue to improve the G3 like this, why not drop Motorola's dead-in-the-water G4 and sell the G5 as the high end chip and continue to sell the G3 as the low end chip? If IBM can keep this up, the G3 will surpass the G4, performance-wise, fairly soon. Especially if the rumors about AltiVec support and 1.5 GHz are true.

2.5 if you're using it. 7 if you're not. Pretty simple, really. ;)
Hmmm. I thought they were trying to 957-up Anandtech. Oh, well.

Actually I'm pretty sure they do appreciate themselves.

I'm not trolling; I'm curious.
But there are so many more bad Windows admins that you'd never know... ;)
only 900 years?
Dude -- it's only been 900 years. Let's be honest.
And raises taxes. Don't forget the taxes!
Sorry to bust your ultra-liberal bubble.
Usually an anti-government, pro-business standpoint is not so much liberal as it is conservative. Just thought I'd clear that up.
In Soviet Russia, XBOX emulates YOU!
That's not really retail sales, though, so it wouldn't negate the story at all.
I suppose that makes sense, but I'm sure it results in a very readable language as a whole.
Except now, you had bums popping in a quarter, and having a free room for the night.
Ummmm... Are you sure it was a free room? Sounds like they paid...
I'd say they're more than entitled to take what they can get and be pissed about it, but that doesn't alter the wisdom of doing so.

Actually Apple's was a better first try.

Please think.
The reason they dropped support for the beige G3 is because it is slow as ass. Those were like 300 MHz. At 1+ GHz, the G3 would be able to move.
If IBM can continue to improve the G3 like this, why not drop Motorola's dead-in-the-water G4 and sell the G5 as the high end chip and continue to sell the G3 as the low end chip? If IBM can keep this up, the G3 will surpass the G4, performance-wise, fairly soon. Especially if the rumors about AltiVec support and 1.5 GHz are true.
