So if I were whacking off to kiddie porn near a state border and I COULD have spooged into the next state, but the wind shifted, I'm facing FEDERAL instead of STATE charges?
If I want portable computing devices, I would rather have them just small, cheap, light, with long battery life. If I want to "wear" them, that's what I have pockets for.
The only things I might want to wear would be a display on my eyeglasses, or something in the form of a wristwatch. Fuck anything else.
I can survive the ewoks. But the special edition crap...greedo shooting first, that abysmally horrible jabba scene in ANH, and above all, ROTJ, the new band. Oh my god. Fast forward...every time.
I suppose THAT should have been the real cue that something was dreadfully wrong.
Yeah, but it was all mentioned, in such a way that it had to have been something important, in the original movies, way before any of this human cloning stuff. Just bad timing.
French, German, and Spanish translators are fairly mature. The results almost invariably come out understandable, and sometimes look like a real person had written them.
The WonderSwan is an incredibly stupidly named handheld from Bandai. It has remakes of the first few Final Fantasy games on it. This is the only reason anyone would buy one.
The controls are among the worst I have ever experienced. I have only played Mr Driller on one of these things, and the fact that it has no D-pad, only two sets of four sharp-edged, wiggly buttons, makes even that undemanding game a physical pain to play.
There are FIGHTING GAMES available for this system. Don't ask me how anyone is supposed to play them.
Basically, the guy got it bass ackwards. He should be putting the wonderswan guts in the gameboy case. To get away from the horrid controls (granted, the gameboy has fewer buttons...)
In all those sensationalistic "kiddy porn trading/pedophile stalkers/etc.." stories a few years back, it was always decrying the "dangers of the internet" when in every story I read it was AOL...like AOL-only stuff.
"IIRC, they even *look* special, growths of HeLa look like netting with PERLS strung on it, which is apparently rather unusual (disclaimer: IANABiologist)."
Make them relevant, and I don't care what kind of ads you serve up.
Problem is I almost never get ads I would ever even click on, let alone buy something from.
Google just gave me a sponsored link (autoweb.com) which seems to be what I was actually looking for, though.
I've almost stopped buying CDs. Since emulators and XA audio ripping tools have been getting good, I can PRACTICALLY listen to all my favorite game music (at higher than original quality). Who has time for music you can actually BUY on CD?
If you are one of the people who has to help people when they forget their password, you wouldn't be suggesting people do that.
I always tell people "use the name of a dead pet." Easy to remember, hard for anyone but MAYBE...MAYBE their close friends and family to guess.
Otherwise, I tell people to do "fan" passwords. That's pretty stupid, though, if you pick something EVERYONE KNOWS YOU ARE A FAN OF. Like my friend who liked to wear Georgetown shirts and hats, and whose password was "hoyas." Moron.
If you're someone who goes to SF conventions every year dressed in a Star Trek uniform, "picard" would be a lame ass password.

Oh, man...
Unreal's software renderer is nice. Throw RAM at it and it speeds up. That simple. Half-life seems to require more.
The stupidest idea in the history of the world.

Frame rates below 12 or so (15 or 20 if you're superfast) can affect play.
Lag can similarly. Pings above 100 WILL cause noticable lag.
Both of which can get you killed. (But only if you have the problem worse than your attacker)
Oh, for a second there, I thought the article might be talking about Dynamix.net, where one can get all that good japanese porn.
Yeah, except now it's what, 98 years?

I like "not the sharpest tack on the floor."
Just like AOL = internet.
In all those sensationalistic "kiddy porn trading/pedophile stalkers/etc.." stories a few years back, it was always decrying the "dangers of the internet" when in every story I read it was AOL...like AOL-only stuff.
And AOL escaped without a scratch.
Gimme a break...has Lambert BEEN in a decent movie since the original Highlander?
Well, there's some Luc Besson movie I wanna see with him in it, but not till I get back to the states and can see it with ENGLISH subtitles.
Never heard of Mean Guns, though...is it better than Avalon?
"IIRC, they even *look* special, growths of HeLa look like netting with PERLS strung on it, which is apparently rather unusual (disclaimer: IANABiologist)."
With a typo like that, I wonder what you are?

Yeah, if we're not careful, Muad-dib might show up to lead them conquering across all of civilization.

Melissa...who would name a goat melissa?
Yeah...the challenger explosion was cool. I want another one.
If it wasn't for Mozilla's composer always making links absolute instead of relative, I wouldn't even have netscape on my (windows) machine.
I left my Dreamweaver serial # 5000 miles away...dammit

I prefer the lesbian sims. I think it was linked at cruel.com.
Is that copyright extension retroactive to things which had already expired?
What does Nintendo have to do with any of this?
Why all the Y2K fuss, nothing happened!
The absurdity of that question doesn't prove that the fuss was warranted, but it does give one pause about questioning it along those lines.
Same thing here.
