I'm quite aware of Infocom games but the term "adventure game" is normally applied to the later graphics games - Sierra, LucasArts, Legend, etc. Now, if you said "interactive fiction"...
because the total heat content of the of the earth, or "globe" if you will, and its atmosphere is expected to rise. likewise, you can talk about the increase in global longevity, even if not every country has a rising life expectancy.
But they can be imported. The rising influx of foreign-trained doctors to Western countries from countries such as India, Pakistan, China and Malaysia is a huge issue these days. Very few professions are immune to the impacts of globalization.
That came to mind for me too. There's a whole lot of interesting ideas in there; not just the techie stuff you'd expect from Dilbert (which is there, of course), but also lots of good ergonomic, energy-saving and usability-focused ideas. If I ever build my own home, I'm going take a lot of tips from there.
I agree. All you need is a bit of preparation. Make up an information packet of a few pages with some background on the Google programs, screen shots of how their business listing will appear on Google, contact information, general costs. Then you can give them a brief overview and leave them a copy if they're interested in more details.
If Google is smart, they'll provide some ready-made PDFs for just this purpose. With some practice and papers in hand, I could see getting your time down to 10-15 minutes per store.
The GP could have RTFA before name and photo of the reporter were added later.
Note: The original version of the story did not have the picture or name the journalist or outlet. The story was updated once Dateline responded to a request for comment.
Presumably if they didn't identify the reporter earlier they didn't specify the gender either.
If i want to buy and view the movie "300" but a friend comes over with a movie of his and we watch that instead, I am no less inclined to eventually purchase and watch the movie 300.
Unless, of course, in watching it with your friend, you realize you don't like it.
For high quality content, a "free preview" won't hurt the sales. For low quality content, it will.
I've noticed the same. With a USB-mounted NTFS partition, write speeds are around 1M/s in OS X. It's better than nothing, but if you're transfering a large batch, you'd best wait until you're about to leave for work or head off to bed.
Undefined terms in Slashdot summaries are indicative of poor editorial quality, not necessarily widespread familiarity. I have no idea what "/b/" is, let alone the rest of/terms/ used throughout your post. You seem to know what you're talking about; care to provide some background for us?
Have you flown recently? Every flight I've been on in the past few years disallows electronic devices only during take-off and landing. For the vast majority of the flight, they're permitted.
Exactly. Casinos run all sorts of "money for nothing" promotions all the time - free bets, sweepstakes, double payouts, etc. Many of which come and go based on seemingly random days of the week or times of day. In this context, it is perfectly reasonable for gamblers to assume it was some sort of promotion or something.
This is just passing the buck. Clearly someone at the casino was negligent in not fully testing the machines (not even basically testing them, if my understanding of the defect is correct) before placing them on the floor. That is were the fault lies, not with the users.
Er, how did this work with forks? The point of the problem using chopsticks is that you need 2 of them to eat. A single fork is sufficient for eating spaghetti.
It is indeed a very sad state of affairs in the US with regards to recordings. I was shocked when I learned of it. But perhaps the original poster is from other shores.

What a nightmare, I'm already being flooded by dozens of job offers for adult websites development...
The BioShock demo is also available on Steam. I'm getting it now.

In other words, it's an old-school adventure game.
Er, old school adventure games were not static screens. What he's talking about sounds more like Myst.
Are you kidding? You can get 10 volunteer Indian developers for the price of one volunteer Western developer...

A dentist cannot be outsourced to another country

Wozniak mentions a material called "ram-dirt", but I can't find anything on that term online. Anyone know more about this?
With digital cameras that keep track of time, it's useful to have a "creation time" for files so you know when pictures were taken.
EXIF data will take care of that, which is pretty much universally supported in digital cameras. There are plenty of tools out there to sync

And there go umpteen millions of dollars in technology. Not the most cost-effective way to wage a war.

I don't know myself, but I'd ask the folks over at The Traders Den.

Google strips slashes out of search queries. So, no, a search for "/b/" or "/b/ raid" is not very helpful.

Free alcohol is standard on non-US carrier international flights.

Yahoo has a new option: perhaps the users are criminally liable for using the software.
I assume the poster meant to say "opinion", not "option".
