I hate when nerds don't know their stuff. Xylophones and Marimbas are made from wood. Orchestra Bells and Glockenspiels are metal. Also, striking the bar directly in the middle is what makes them sound so bad. The 'mallet' should be off center for the same reason the suspension bars are. Putting the hammers on the ends of the bars would improve the sound dramatically (theoretically).
I would imagine any video games portraying homosexuality in any manner are strictly verboten. All characters in all games must be heterosexual. Pikachu would be an example of a verboten character.
As mentioned above: race implies certain genetic dispositions and this is helpful to research (and pro-active treatment?) in, say, the health department. Sociologists will also use it. And you are limited to the number of really cool interactive graphs you can make from census data without it.
So, not only will this thing not come loaded with C64 emulation software, it won't have the required Game Cartridge slot. What a waste of a name licensing opportunity.
This just in: Michael Seringhaus has had his grade in Constitutional Law retroactively changed from a B- to an F because of an Opinion Piece he wrote in The New York Times last Sunday. When contacted, his former teacher called him a complete idiot and thinks he probably cheated on his final exam. Mr. Seringhaus was not available for comment.
I have a 20Mb fiber line and seldom get speeds above 1Mb. Once I get off the ISP's network, the speeds are throttled down either by other carriers or the destination website.

I thought that paper lost all of its integrity since becoming part of News Corp. People still read it?
MIDI? Oh, right. A geek/nerd wouldn't use a standard that has existed for 20+ years just to play jingle bells.
And why it is played with C macros and not a MIDI file?

The link points to Fox News. I automatically assumed it's fiction. Anyone confirm this?
The article didn't even mention if the server was ok or not.
They'll send a reporter to the house asking how they feel about taking someone's property without asking.
Every day Texas surprises me with something new regarding how much it would suck to live in that state.

What's worse? A oil company lobbyist as vice president or a google lobbyist in a position no one cares about?

That's a stupid thing for him to say. Oh, wait. That's the only kind of thing he says.

When did he become a major character? He had, what, 5 lines in all of the movies combined?
