And here everyone was praising the new console's hardware platform being more PC like as a good thing. We all thought it was going to make porting these made for console games so much easier. Guess we didn't account for laziness, incompetence and being cheap.
I agree with this.
Also, it doesn't matter who is elected in, they all serve the same masters. Which is why you see Nobama acting just as bad as Bush etc... whoever comes next, assuming Obama doesn't declare himself Emperor... will be worse.

This is whats going on, any new gateway or exisiting gateway that is restarted will not be able to obtain service. The DHCP servers are overloaded and over capacity, CMS has disabled their northbound API so no provisioning can get thru in order to lessen the load.
Its not affecting everyone in the affected areas, and as a precaution NO ONE should attempt to powercycle or reset their gateway for any reason.
LOL, I bet Level 1 tech scripts are really useful now. Sir, have you rebooted your router? Please reboot your router, awwww
My apologies, I did not realize you were mentally deficient. I didn't mean to make fun.
Let me explain so even you can understand. Hypothetical situation (means not real, but could be): I install Linux on a spare PC I have laying around. I attempt to install the driver for the graphics card in this spare PC. I click the button labeled "click here to install just works graphics driver". It doesn't work, gives an error message. Do some reading online, find other people with same problem, they say go to CLI and type this to make it work. I do so and it now "just works". This is my personal "experience" with installing a driver in Linux.
You do the same, click the "just works" button. And it works. This is YOUR experience with installing a driver in Linux.
There ya go, go drink that chocolate milk your mom just brought down to you.
But it's still crashy both on video drivers and API being badly implemented in it, and you still need fairly deep knowledge of the OS to get stuff properly installed, configured and running.
Do you know what I did to get my graphics card up and running on Linux...NOTHING. You clearly have never used Linux.
Yes because your personal experience with Linux equates to what everyone experiences with it. Yep, no differences. You clearly haven't left your mom's basement in a VERY long time.
You are preventing them from engaging in commerce and public life.
It's basically Amish shunning or Hawthorne's Scarlet letter but without the obvious initial "buy in" of joining an extremist religious cult first.
The sacred cow will ensure the precedent is set in general so that it can be applied to YOU next time.
I believe the intent is to prevent pedophile pedators from clandestinely communicating with potential underage prey. However, since sex-offender status is applied to more than just pedophiles, I would think that this is overly broad.
But since creepy and pervy is so creepy and pervy and decent people don't want to be associated with creepy and pervy and doing so may alert law enforcement, I doubt anybody will actually object to this treatment. They basically adopt the "don't do kiddie porn, don't fark teens and kiddies, don't rape or grope anybody and don't expose yourself in public if you want to play online games" attitude.
"Creepy and Pervy" is a slippery slope. Person A calls themselves a christian and as such doesn't agree with the lifestyle choices a homosexual makes. BAM, hate crime! Kick em off the internet! Can't have those horrible creepy ideas making their way out to other people! We're a civilized society.
In this specific case, I feel the ends justify the means.
Well enjoy the fallout that comes from this. If Motorola wins by trolling with FRAND patents you can be sure other parties will turn around and do the same back at them and Android.
If the fallout entails a fixing of the patent system then we all will enjoy it, thanks.
AMD owns a majority share in Global Foundries and I'm sure whoever bought AMD would also obtain that ownership. Global Foundries has a pretty modern FAB in Germany and I know is building a brand new one in NY right now.
No, it isn't. It is XP 32bit. Looking at mine now, "Windows XP Professional" "Service Pack 3". No 64bit mentioned at all in the system properties. I don't think XP 64bit ever had a SP3 either.
Companies for years have been using RSA-like security for their VPN clients and now MMORPG's like Star Wars The Old Republic have come up with iPhone and Android apps as additional security to passwords. Why not use this type of authentication with a CD key?
Are you talking about a randomized "Key" to install/start the game? Or are we back to needing a randomized number tied to your online account thus requiring always online? Sort of like Diablo 3, with their battle.net authenticator app?
It is not any different. Ubisoft has been doing it for years, blizzard has started doing it more recently (Starcraft II I do believe was the first attempt at it). And there has been quite a bit of backlash on Diablo 3's use of online only, amongst other things.
This.
That always confounded me - why on earth would an earnest religious person turn away someone from their church, just because they were a sinner? Aren't non-christians the people you -want- to come to church? Afterall, Christ did lunch with sinners, and preached love and compassion. It's become clear to me that many christians (but not all) are not interested in saving souls, but only about their social club that lets them feel superior to people who are not Them - the other, the different, the outsider. It used to be the jews and gypsies until it became unpopular to ostracise them - now it's the gays and muslims.
The key phrase there being "earnest religious person". This does not automatically infer someone is a christian. Applying that same phrase to a muslim, would you assume an "earnest religious person" is a muslim because they blow themselves up? Of course not.
1 Corintians 5:
9 I wrote to you in my letter not to associate with sexually immoral people— 10 not at all meaning the people of this world who are immoral, or the greedy and swindlers, or idolaters. In that case you would have to leave this world. 11 But now I am writing to you that you must not associate with anyone who claims to be a brother or sister[c] but is sexually immoral or greedy, an idolater or slanderer, a drunkard or swindler. Do not even eat with such people.
12 What business is it of mine to judge those outside the church? Are you not to judge those inside? 13 God will judge those outside. “Expel the wicked person from among you.”
Referring specifically to the "wolf in sheep's clothing", someone who claims to be a "brother or sister" (ie christian) but acts in the complete opposite of the Word's commandments and bearing no fruit as a follower of Christ. As stated in reference to those who make no claims of being part of the body " What business is it of mine to judge those outside the church."
Long story even longer, while as a christian I will not make excuses for the sins people commit (including mine), I am tasked by my lord to inform them that there is a better way. This way allows us all to be forgiven and therefore conquer sin and death resulting in everlasting life with God. The word teaches performing homosexual acts is rebellion against God and the way he made us. I am to denounce the sin, but love the sinner as Jesus teaches:
Luke 6:
27 “But to you who are listening I say: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, 28 bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. 29 If someone slaps you on one cheek, turn to them the other also. If someone takes your coat, do not withhold your shirt from them. 30 Give to everyone who asks you, and if anyone takes what belongs to you, do not demand it back. 31 Do to others as you would have them do to you.
32 “If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners love those who love them. 33 And if you do good to those who are good to you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners do that. 34 And if you lend to those from whom you expect repayment, what credit is that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners, expecting to be repaid in full. 35 But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting to get anything back. Then your reward will be great, and you will be children of the Most High, because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked. 36 Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.
All this talk about bandwidth, I'm more interested in the amount of storage space needed back here on earth to store all that data being transferred. 461GB of data per day is around 3.2TB of data per week or a little less than 1.7 Petabytes of data per year (I think.. if my math is correct). Once you add in all of their other storage needs that's one hell of a SAN.
As a Canadian myself, i the same amount of social security tax at work (TN Visa); however,
if I get laid off, I do not receive the same benefit as everybody else, who paid social security tax.
That's because if an American gets laid off they don't receive social security as a "benefit", they receive unemployment compensation which is completely different.
I'm still waiting on the 9" or 10" netbook tablet type to be put on the market. That way I can spend the $300 for it and be able to use it as an ebook reader as well as a laptop instead of spending the same amount on just the ebook reader from Sony or Amazon or any of the others out there.

It's just as racists to vote FOR someone because of their race as it is to vote against them for the same reason. Troll harder next time.

Coincidentally, is a mid size vagina as well.
