They're probably not going to change that ever. It's not being saved for anybody, they just want to minimize the damage spambots can do by randomly generating email addresses.

Those people are all being sent invites (even though it specifically said that's not what it was) and have been getting them for at least a week according to my friend who was just excited to get one (before I let him know I had 50 invites to spare).
This implies any concept whose creators cannot maintain its implementation does not exist. But there are inherent rights people have whether or not they are recognized in law, whether or not they are even exercised.
The US could be invaded and the Interrim American Government might not recognize my right to work, my right to (not) worship, my self-determination. I possess these rights as they indisputably exist regardless of who is in power and however they modify the public protocols.
By your logic, I maintain the concept of innate human rights... and so they exist. To assert that a person has as much right to life as an insect is masturbatory. Intangible concepts "exist": friendship, marriage, employment & countries are all facts of life-- even though they rely on voluntary adoption of the social contract and predictable behavior for tangible results.
None of the examples you give are priveleges granted by the government. People have certain unalienable rights which Government ostensibly exists in order to preserve and protect, and if necessary extend to those less fortunate.
Mmmm... LiveJournal did have some ability to do this, weirdly enough. They only lost data from one cluster after their power loss last month.
I'm glad it turned out this way, as I only use Wikipedia to look up important facts & research historical data... I need my LiveJournal friends-list to find out which Harry Potter character someone I've never met would be!
Obi-Wan gets a cold shoulder in this article, "The former allowed you to play as the title character." I guess that's all they could come up with. The game tends to be dissed by players, as well. I don't get it.
Personally, I enjoyed the hell out of this game. You start out with a full battery of Jedi powers-- I don't want to pay $60 for a game, sit down, and go through the boring part of the characters' lives. My gamer friends tell me about "Jedi Academy" as if I'm supposed to be excited that I can train as a Jedi before I can play. I've never been watching a movie's training montage (gonna need a montage) and thought "wow, all of that grueling, mundane training-- it would be so great if I could go through that!"
Obi-Wan for Xbox had a training section, but it was just to teach you how to play the game-- if you know the controls, you can sit down and your character is already powered-up and able to do everything. This is more useful to me. I'd play Obi-Wan 2, 3, or 4-- but they're not coming.
I'm not an RPG guy. I don't get off on the KOTOR (or FF, etc) "attack, wait 5 seconds, see if it worked, use special item, attack" method. I want more games where you move the thumbstick and the lightsaber either kills the guy or you have to start over again. The strategy and complex plot make up for my distaste for this interface.
Obi-Wan was pretty buggy in some places, (I remember doing Jedi acrobatics halfway through a poorly-rendered wall just to crack up my housemate), and it didn't have half as many levels as I expected at the time, but it offered what I look for in video games-- and it wasn't well-received. It was basically Star Wars Mario Jedi, or Obi-Bandicoot, with platforms and forced paths through most levels. I haven't seen anything like it in the Star Wars games since, starting out at the high level of power and once you learn how to control the character, being challenged by levels and villains instead of game mechanics and building up powers & items. I just want to sit down for a half-hour, and be able to come back and have a little fun next week too.
he does all the finishing work with Photoshop 6.1 and a massive 12x24 Wacom Intuos.
I mentioned this to my gf, who uses a 6x8 tablet (our friend cartoons capably with a mere 4x6) and she wanted to know, "Does he stand on the thing and ice-skate to draw?"
The raid on the Branch Davidian compound came right on the cusp of a massive investigation; they needed something BIG to draw attention away from this.
Right before Waco happened, Koresh took ATF officers out shooting for fun. Not really a normal man, but I believe burning children alive is worse than marrying them.
It was a debacle, and is rightly remembered as a genuine (non-trifling-blowjob-related) terrible moment in the Clinton administration.
I've seen the second batch. It was from the same CD the Washington Post had-- barking dogs and the creepy girl smiling w/ the corpse on ice.
I thought Rumsfeld said videos were going to come out, too, though.
My impression is this protest tactic would try and emphasize the lack of a recount capability.
"See? It's like they're doing this with your vote!"
So the similarity to a flamethrower would be productive.
You got a little excited about the law aspect there-- where in the article did it say that Jet City is taking this to court? What judge? They already replaced Star Wars with a cheesy ripoff flick from the 80s. Show happened on Thursday.
Wing-it Productions is just concerned with giving people a good time and making a couple of bucks. They're not taking George Bleeding Lucas to court any day soon.
Not sure who you're talking to here, but obviously it's an important cause if you're willing to post as an Anonymous Coward about it! You'll DIE to protect it and blah blah blah, but you won't stay logged in and take bad Slashdot karma for it.
Ha!
How many years are we talking about? Care to share specifics about the reproductive success of species which gave selflessly of themselves to others over the eons? Sorry, but I qualified my statement-- and you replied with melodramatic claptrap. Humanity's selfishness got us where we are today, like it or not. Whinging about it doesn't prove your point about instant runoff voting.
a) the Electoral College gave us Bush II.
b) isn't democracy about "majority rules"? I just don't see the problem, sorry. Maybe it's because I live in a city (a small, townish city called Seattle) but I would prefer politicians pandered to the populous, progressive provinces.
GMail is Mozilla Firefox (also known as Halliburton Superchimp) compatible, and vice versa. (the link mentions macs, but all versions work)
I use the 0.9 release in winxp-- and it kicks ass.
Just found a mouse gestures extension (plug-in) that ensures I'll never need Opera again. It's a nice browser and all of that, but eats up RAM & CPU exponentially depending on the number of tabs open-- haven't had that issue with Firefox (or Kafkaesqueunicorn, if you prefer) yet.
The GMail team says that the Full GMail (whenever that comes) will not be Opera compatible, but
GMail Beta has limited functionality in Opera
Firefox is better than Opera (I actually upgraded after getting my GMail invite... it's everything Opera is, with lower RAM hogging and smarter tabs. The different search extensions kick Opera's hinder. Thunderbird (seperate but integrated mail client) is nicer than M2 (not that I use my other email accounts any more)
Believe me, I thought I was a diehard Opera user until I started with Firefox. All of my bookmarks imported automagically. It's faster, free, and no Opera ad banner needs to be ignored/cracked.

If your penis shot lasers, (or even sighted with one) then perhaps you'd be more accurate.
Then again, you'd be working for the government, lasing North Korean jets and drinking coffee all day.
