I spent a couple hours in a port in Scottland (having taken a fairy from Northern Ireland), and I didn't know they spoke English there until I asked what language was spoken in Scotland the next day.
I had a lot of pantomimish conversations, and stumbled around in Spanish some (a weak second language for me.
I had the impression that the staff at the laundry mat and the couple bars I went to really didn't speak English.
Everybody was incredibly polite and helpful, and at the laundry mat we had a good time exchanging words that were gibberish (kind of like in Ghost Dog). It certainly wasn't a strategy to avoid me, as it prolonged things longer than it needed to be.
And unlike what my sibling poster said, I found the people to be incredibly polite about the whole situation. The only person I had a problem with was a guy who appeared to be living on the street who smelled tourist and used it as an excuse to say sexually explicit things to my girlfriend (who was actually fluent in French) and quickly retreated when he realized he was understood.
It's funny, I find the same thing about most countries where "everyone speaks English" that I have been to.
If you spend a little time just a touch outside of the beaten tourist path, you quickly find people don't speak English.
In my time in Paris (only a week), I didn't meet a single person who spoke English outside of museums or stores close to them. Of the people that did speak a different language Italian was most popular.
I find you need too many people working together in ET:QW. As a casual player it makes it harder to be useful. With vehicles showing their best with a couple people in them, 9v9 no longer feels like a decent amount of people, and I find it hard to get in games with many more people where I am not dominated by better players.
I don't know haw small a game you mean, but the 1,000,000 figure to make a profit is wrong IMHO.
Look at a game like No More Heros, that game was never expected to sell 1,000,000 copies, and is considered a success. It's not hugely epic, but it certainly isn't a puzzle game either. It plays about as long as many games too.
and searching for 'gore "science get in the way"' similarly turns up nothing useful (except for maybe a video I am too lazy to watch).
Mostly I see forums discussing it and it not even attributed to Gore. Sometimes I see it attributed to him similar to the GP. I don't see evidence that is was actually said by Gore though.
I believe it is a more relevant search because it removes the possibility of contractions throwing off the results.
I believe that by default you need to use the Android Java environment. I am skeptical that a python interpreter is written within those confines.
If you root it (or have the developers version I assume) you can install Debian ARM, and probably install python (I assume the bar is lower for python than LXDE which I have seen screenshots of).
Since it is really being sold as an appliance, and not a computer, as a normal folk you don't have access outside of the bounds they set for you.
It doesn't. It was a quick example of extreme violence that is deemed OK for youngsters to watch.
Guns allow allow for extreme violence (in death count) to not be bad to watch.
I was simply commenting on my opinion of what people generally find to be acceptable movie violence.
I don't really care what people watch, I was trying to speculate what the reason for the ridiculous reaction to sex in media, compared to the much more reasoned response people generally have to violence.
To me the issue is, why does a little wang make an R-rated movie, and lots of killing doesn't.
My answer was that a little wang is a much closer to life experience that large amounts of killing. And I do think that guns make large amounts of killing easier, but it really is not the issue. The issue is why don't people care, and I think it has to do with familiarity.
I imagine most gun advocates have never shot anyone, and many people have at the very least beat someone else (in a fight). So I would expect beating a person in a movie to be reacted to more strongly than something like Rambo for example (though I haven't actually seen Rambo, I just assume it is some guy in a head band shooting people).
I could be wrong, and somebody will probably prove it, but the reason my comment was about guns, is that "acceptable" violence tends to be about guns, especially about guns in fantasy settings.
and I was really pissy about the 2MB/sec I get from my Asus WL-500w.
6 days to copy the whole hard drive seamed a little extreme to me. Additionally the limiting factor appears to be the routers HD access limitation, not the network or Samba, being as dd if=/dev/zero of=/opt/shared_files/test for 100MB tests only hit 2.5 MB/s
I will do some tests when I get home, but even the 3 MB/s seams really slow.
I'm willing to bet CA has been paying more than it's fair share of fderal taxes over the last few decades.
Federal taxes are generally welfare for the middle states, with the coastal states paying in more than they get, and the central ones getting more than they pay.
But I guess that is probably California's fault too.
Probably because solutions that involve thinking are not the best solution to thoughtlessness.
You may as well say "don't be such a dumbass and remember to attach files", but here I am, as dumb an ass as ever, and the e-mails go without the attachment.
I would think it is almost the opposite of what you say (in a way).
For most people graphic violence triggers an aversion. While graphic sex triggers a pleasant tingling.
Additioanlly most of us have/will have sex, while most won't even have a chance to gun people down. This makes it easier for violence to be isolated into the pure fantasy realm.
It is by default, using the ordered journal type in Ext3.
It is not an option yet in Ext4, and for now may not be the default, but an option to be set at mount time.
Currently in Ext4, the meta data in journal is first updated, then the data written.
When software assumes that it can send commands, and have them take place in the order sent this becomes problematic. Because without costly immediate writes there is a risk of losing very very old data, as the files metadata gets updated but the data not written to the new place yet.

Isn't that the person that kills small animals (to get better specimen for show or racing.

Agreed, still my favourite jump in and play FPS.
Varied skillsets, some improvement of abilities with time, plays nice without too many people.
Not too complex either.
Though tremulous is some stiff competition for it.

I typed both these into the search box and got the results.
I am not convinced this gains anything.
They way you say it would preclude carriers though.

What is different about drives in a piece of networking equipment is interesting to me.

I think the point is that they co-exist.
netbeans gets installed even as eclipse is installed.

I doubt many people are comfortable watching assaults with baseball bats leading to death in movies and in TV.
Something like that causes a more visceral reaction because it is once again less removed from fantasy.
I could be wrong, but I don't think that the comfort with violence in media extends to up close and personal kind of stuff.
So does gmail,
but it hasn't helped me a single time yet.

You win,
thanks. This will help me a lot.
And not just on Linux.
Just curious,
have you found a way to read outlook attached forwards?
This is one of my main complaints, but it is minor enough that I havn't looked into it.
