Having played the uncensored and seen the censored version - that's pretty much how it looks like though. Heck, they even removed one Special Infected from the game because he was clad in riot gear, and eviscerating something looking alike a police officer (he wasn't even one, but an agent of CEDA, the company that made the virus turning everybody into mindless zeds, meh) is evil(tm).
What? They dreamt up some ubiquitous evil corporation to be responsible for the zombies? They chalked it up to a virus? Their lack of storyline or conclusive evidence of much of anything was one of the main reasons L4D was a neat game, I'm glad I didn't buy this revamped crap.
This is a Zombie game we're talking about here. It's sole point is surviving and killing zombies in hilarious ways.
Seriously? How much emphasis is put on "killing zombies in hilarious ways?" Are there achievements related to it? This all sounds incredibly stupid, suddenly.
I don't think facebook games fall into the category of "nice things."
In fact, if I could somehow ensure that I can't have what you define as "nice things," I feel that I would take every necessary step to do so. Facebook (and MySpace!) would be much less retarded, in my opinion.
Probably the worst case scenario would be programming that takes its fake TV too seriously getting it filtered, which I think would be somewhat ironically humorous.
I think that was the point he was trying to make, in an effort to downplay this whole affair. Nothing really changed, in other words.
Additionally, I find it amusing that it's now perfectly fine for computer manufacturers to "ship computers with competing Web browsers, as well as or instead of Internet Explorer," but not for Microsoft to bundle their own browser into software they created.
I used the term AI, not magic. The art of misdirection you're employing to detract credibility from the person you're responding to is more closely related to prestidigitation than the algorithms required for what we're talking about.;)
Anyway, are we still talking about MythTV, or were you being more general in your original post? As I was saying, I doubt a locally-managed set-top box would be performing the analysis and calculation necessary to accomplish determining whether advertisements or pseudo-TV within TV needed to be cropped out, but I'm not familiar enough with MythTV to say for certain if they couldn't be running a much larger operation capable of such processing tasks from some central location that serves its customers remotely.
Do you know anything more about this MythTV service?
Man, someone should've modded my original post as flamebait, this is ridiculous. Every time I say something to prevent some snide remark from an AC another one jumps in to snark about that one.
As mentioned thrice in this thread alone, there's an LCD as well. But you're mostly right, it wouldn't be very good for most browsing tasks just because it isn't very powerful as a device.
While nice to see posts that smarmily correct me being eligible for both -1 Redundant and the mythical -1 Uninformed, I appreciate you bringing to my attention my misuse of "begs the question." I never knew.
Losing money on units sold is a gambling business model to begin with, but I acknowledge that you can't use money you don't have to make more money. I'm probably playing Devil's Advocate too much in this discussion.
From TFA: If you tear open a Nook (which the team has done) you’ll find that the Android operating system is contained on a microSD card (separate from the microSD expansion slot). From here, it’s a simple matter of using a card reader to mount this card on your computer and changing a single word in the init.rc file (the file that is in charge of which services are begun at startup, similar to a Linux boot).
I'm incredibly surprised it isn't even using proprietary flash storage for this purpose, and am suddenly incredibly attracted to the prospect of this device due to its free cellular internet connection. Can I attach a foldable keyboard to this thing? This begs the question of why we don't already have netbooks this awesome, with free internet and days of battery life.
You really couldn't care less, right? You're already at the minimum of caring. If you could care less, then by all means, please start caring less right away.
They can always just say they were being sarcastic, and that the meaning is therefore the same. That's why people don't bring this up anymore and look stupid when they do.
Slashdot Mirror
He was talking about Australia, sport.
(Not a rhetorical question.)
Perhaps what the poster was trying to say was...
How does "any of several carangid fishes (especially of the genus Decapterus)" act in the role of a numerator in the context.
Perhaps the OP should also learn to use a dictionary too, I also thought WTF when I saw "scads" used as it was.
Scads is a colloquial term for "lots."
It's fairly commonly used.

if I blew up my own car, I probably wouldn't file a claim.

We can discuss this without one of us being being defaulted to the role of flamebait. :/
That said, what if Dell had a web browser? And shipped it with their computers?

I'm curious as to what the act of "absurding" entails, could you tell me?

Submit your own summaries, then. :)
If that is, in fact, what the word means, I don't see your issue with the way he used it.
You wouldn't download crazy bread...
Are you really asking this? That would have to be some pretty impressive AI for a set-top box or whatever.
Better example of non sequitur for certain. Thank you for your contribution.

well.. that certainly a non sequitur argument if I ever saw one.
How is a comment about India irrelevant in a discussion about India?
I'm not sure it's fair to assign derogatory terms like criminal or childish to the word 'fantasy.' After all, it's just that.

I would suspect it would be subsidized by the monumental increase in sales.
