MLK is one of my personal heroes, right up there alongside Nikola Tesla and Samuel Clemens. Which is what makes it hilarious, for me, when I bitch about Jackson and Sharpton, and someone has the nerve to call me a racist for it.

Like I said, I don't take offense to the opinions of angry adolescents.
Which this "I'm rubber and you're glue" comment of yours kind of cements in my mind as being the actual case, and not just a metaphor for your piss-poor inability to have an adult conversation that doesn't degrade into playground insults.
I'm going to just flat out ignore you now, as I'm becoming more and more certain that just talking to you is a COPPA violation.
- If we had racial equality, Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton would have to get real jobs, rather than become millionaire talking heads who make their bank off the blood of America's black community.
His arguments are, "pay attention to me so I can use the plight of African-Americans to fatten my own bank account."
In fact, that's the only argument he and Sharpton have ever had. I pray, when they die, the ghost of MLK spends eternity bitch-slapping the both of them day in and day out.
I think so, if you have user-grade service, but I pay for a commercial-grade Internet connection that comes with a static IP for running services, and I run three hosted servers. Freedom isn't free (but it is a lot of fun).:)
You realize, of course, that a system where one only has "freedom" if they can afford to pay is anything but free, right?
A strict reading of the Constitution looks to outlaw searching anyone anywhere without a warrant, not just searching Americans. Might want to watch that slippery slope there, fella.
Incorrect.
What you have to look at is what word the founders used to determine the scope; everywhere else in the document, the term, "the people" refers specifically to American citizens. If a provision is meant to apply to everyone in general, they used the words, "all persons" for covered actions, and "no persons" for things the government is prohibited from doing.
You can see this difference between the 4th and 5th Amendments; the 4th reads
"The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized."
Whereas the 5th reads
"No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offence to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation."
As you can see, there is a blatant and actionable difference between the meaning of those two Amendments - the first one implicitly states that it applies only to citizens, whereas the second obviously applies to everyone within US government jurisdiction.
The only slippery slope here is the one where people think they can re-interpret the meanings of 250 year old words with modern language, ie references to the term "regulated" in the 2nd Amendment.

A "game" where you connect an actual musical instrument (instead of a plastic toy), and learn rather than play? Sounds pretty novel to me.
Various flavors of Survival Horror; from Alan Wake, that Slenderman game, Rust, etc.
I haven't played them. What do they add on top of the Alone in the Dark/Resident Evil/Silent Hill template?
Play them, then you tell me.
Regarding Rust, I don't recall ever having to build and defend a house in any of the games you mentioned.
Oh, right, you're still obsessed with the concept that "not new genre == been there, done that." Nevermind that, even if a game fits an existing genre (like FPS), it can still have novel elements that make it uniquely different than previous iterations of said genre (like Minecraft).
Also, I noticed you didn't mention KSP - is that because you missed it, or you couldn't think of a proper poo-poo for why that one isn't different enough to satisfy you?
A car's primary purpose is to advertise the size of a guy's wallet, in order to facilitate picking up chicks.
FTFFY. The kind of chicks that care what you drive have no intention of touching your dick anyway. At least, not until after they've gotten into that wallet.

IMO, they (all of them) are impotent every week, because they don't actually come up with anything themselves; rather, they push the legislation their lobbyist friends/corporate masters/what-have-you tell them to push for.
But thanks for making it obvious that you only think in partisan terms. Surprised you didn't call me a racist, too.

Gives me a chuckle.
If they manage to stay below 50C with that hardware (i7, 760 GTX) under a load it's indeed impressive.
FTFY.
I just put together a box with a $50 mobo and AMD FX-6150 with stock heatsink/fan combo, and it runs at less than 45C all day long.

Probably a shit load, although I couldn't say if it would use more data than OP's current method.
Of course, if it did use more data, but the experience was better (ie no lag), the question becomes "would it be worth the tradeoff?"

So, let me get this straight... the 4th Amendment needs additional "refinement" to put teeth in its bite
I don't think it needs it, but adding, "under punishment of draw-and-quartering" to the end might cause the oligarchs to take note.
never mind that it's a good idea and would be good for the country,
Absolute malarkey.
Congress is where good ideas go to die.
Congress fiddles while our separated-powers republic burns.
Yea, well, if you little peons wouldn't bitch so goddamn much, we could already be on vacation! Fuckers.
