Yeah, but a flying car won't cause much damage. I mean that Cessna smashed a window and mussed up the external cladding, but caused no major damage to the building structure. Give it a week you won't know anything hit it!
Not that that will stop the doom-mongers whining about private planes, like.
Never happen. The last computer to have "Jr." added to the name was the IBM PC Jr, which was a flop. Nobody took it seriously because of the "Junior" appellation.
Besides, isn't "Luxo" the trade name of a kind of lamp?
Bound to be some issues there...
Why don't we just hire the Russians?
They still use regular rockets. The only thing stopping them building a big dumb booster is money. So we give it to them!
I wouldn't say that yet, some of the LOTR stuff looked suspiciously close to stuff from Braindead, a truly excellent rubber and latex splatter film. I wouldn't be suprised if it brings on a whole new wave of films that use *more* FX because the director knows anything is possible

Some guy once said "Let him who is without sin cast the first stone."
Do you see what I'm getting at here?
Oh yes. Operation Flashpoint.
That's more of a war sim than a war game. Whereas in stuff like RtCW you can run around blasting away at everything that moves, absorbing masses of bullets, in Flashpoint you spend a lot of time crawling around slowly hoping to see the enemy before they see and shoot you. Sometimes you never see the enemy soldier who shoots you. One bullet, and that's it. Game over.
It's probably the most anti-war war game, as it doesn't glamourise war.
Great game. Difficult, yes, but a good depiction of combat, as I'd imagine it.
Well I was gobsmacked to hear that the RAF used the Canberra (formerly the English Electric Canberra) as a spy plane over Afghanistan. Considering this is the 50th anniversary of the Canberra's origin.
Sweet plane. Flies very high and quite fast. When it was first introduced, we had to make new fighter jets so we could catch it in exercises. The Lightning can still outclimb an F16...
Exactly. The only person to ban Clockwork Orange was Stanley Kubrick himself. This is why it only got an official release here after his death.
Kubrick had taken cinemas to court for showing it, and was instrumental in closing down the Scala in London.
The film was NEVER banned by HM Government, and anyone who says that it was is a know-nothing bozo.
Step 8. Throw away your computers, rip out your phone lines, and communicate using messages written in hand on paper, carried by pigeons.
The FBI may then employ Dastardly and Muttley's Vulture Squadron, but to no avail as there is no recorded evidence of them ever catching the pigeon...!
Step 9. Stop being so paranoid and thinking that anyone really gives a shit what you do...

So long as it still had the badly translated introduction, right?
Well, Sean Bean has caused directors enough problems with his "Blades Forever" (or is it "Forever Blades" - "Blades" being the nickname of Sheffield United Football Club - as Sheffield has a history of knifemaking) tattoo having to be covered up when in historical dramas ("Sharpe" for example).

You know, as soon as I see someone spell 'Microsoft' with a dollar sign (or any other allegedly humorous version) I tend to lose all interest in their views as I know they're biased.

Ahem. I had a 6809 machine once, and it was a pleasure to program in assembly. 6809 also had OS/9, a multi-user multi-tasking OS which was better than any other OS for a system of the period.

Bruce Willis is a big girl's blouse. Too scared to get on an aeroplane, let alone a Shuttle!
We should call him Wussy Willis in future!
No no no!

How that got modded up as 'Informative' is beyond me. really it is, as it's wrong!
I think you'll find it was the UK government, and NOT the US government, who hounded Turing for his homosexuality.

I always thought it was vice-versa. Except that Zilog improved on the 8080 design, quite a bit.
