I stream to my xbox 360 just fine with a 13 or so year old pc. 1.6ghz AMD with 512 DDR. Pretty simple and requires no more cables than i already had. Honestly its much simpler to browse through movies in a digital list format than dvd cases. Not having to move my tv big CRT tv to plug shit in is also a plus. And i have all my media through my xbox so its all right there. Very nice, very convenient.
I have way different reasons than that guy for pirating which you may or may not agree with. But its easier to stream from my pc than to set up any sort of player.
Mazda is just not producing anymore renesis rotary engines. Does not mean they are not producing a new rotary engine.
"Thank you so much for all your supportive messages concerning the RX-8 and the rotary engine! We are also excited. Mazda is aiming to achieve a breakthrough with the ‘Skyactiv’ technology, and we are zealously working on new models to house the next generation rotary engine. Thank you for your continued support!"

This article is so wrong on so many levels that its funny.
In the same time, you'll spend the same on brake pads, oil and filter, and tires, but nobody even notices because the individual costs are lower and we expect those expenses
^ Why mention brakes and tires then. The cost for those is the same on an electric car. And no your stupidity doesnt make you wrong but this statement does "The batteries last about as long as a gasoline engine, and cost about the same to replace."
Its not a true fact tho. Engines last WAY longer than warranties. And they dont spike in failures at 6-7 years. Maybe at around 20 years with no maintenance. You might be confusing engines with other mechanical parts of a car tho. Such as an alternator, fuel pump or other device. This is why warranties cover powertrain and not "engine". You sir are again wrong just like you were wrong about the cost and about electric cars not needing any tires or brakes.
Cheaper cars also have good acceleration. Caterham c7 for instance. Electric motors are known for astoundingly quick acceleration tho as they go from 0 to maximum torque instantly. An internal combustion engine has to rev up to reach peak hp and torque.
You sir are an idiot. An engine with even the most basic maintenance will last way longer than 7 years. And then it will cost 1-2 thousand for the engine and about another to put it in. so 3k. Hell i have a 1977 280z a 1991 camry and a 1994 4runner. All bought used all original engines. Z has almost 300k miles on it. Oil filters are cheap and as for tires and brakes, unless you are a genie you will have to change those on an electric car as well.
Alone in the dark did this. Most people hated that game but thats beyond the point. It was pretty neat before every game to see everything that lead up to that point in a dramatic movie fashion. Also gave me time to get high.
"Well understood" science and thinking for now instead of tomorrow is what got us here in the first place. Thinking forward is the only way humanity can progress.
How is that the way it should be. I used to catch the school bus to school and then not go to school. Should my parents be faulted because public transportation provided by the school didnt make sure i actually went to school . Hell even if you could get me into the school it was very simple to get out whenever i wanted.
Why do we keep assuming that life, even complex life had to be created in a habitat like our own. Hell even the variation of organisms here on earth show that life can exist and thrive in hostile places. Hostile to us at least. We need to stop thinking that just because WE are here then all other life will follow the same path. We are the product of our environment not the other way around. All these little "perfections" in the balance of life on earth are due to us evolving for billions of years and adapting to them. What might be right for you, might not be right for some.
How is an HD unnecessary? I load ALL my xbox 360 games into my hdd as soon as i get them. Why would i want slower load times and increased wear on my dvd drive? Burned through like 4 PS2's like that. Not to mention i dont have to worry about disc wear. You can also purchase full titles for direct download. Honestly it seems to me like you just have an anti MS stance.
Why do these companies complain about used games and then offer pre-order bonuses from GAMESTOP. Basically the only company that sells used games on a mass market.
This isnt a race car tho. It doesnt compete in any races. Its a fancy thing to show that electric cars arent too slow. It clocked in slightly ahead of a 2002 VW Lupo GTI. Congratulations you are still slower than weird family station wagons. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/N%C3%BCrburgring_lap_times#Production_vehicles
The problem is for a gasoline car you can do 4 tires and fuel in under 20 seconds. Just gassing a car even in a non pit setting takes what, 3-4 minutes max? How long does it take to charge a battery on these cars. Of course it is a negative because RIGHT NOW they charge slower than molasses. Charge time of future systems is meaningless as we are not talking about them. "Sport" electric cars are nothing but smoked glass and mirrors. Until we have the technology to make a viable electric sports car they should be left to what they do best, econobox grocery getter. Which is nothing to be ashamed of.
They first had to get around the impenetrable wall set up by sony. Then they had to find the data, which sony hid in the most secure place they could. What better place to hide something than right in plain sight labeled "Credit Card Info". Sony you sly fox, using reverse psychology on hackers.

Because no large mammals have been found recently correct?

I feel the same way about marijuana.

I always thought that was so they would charge less tax.

No credit to Arthur C Clarke? You must have not read the books.

I love that anime. Glad to see even in space people enjoy cigarettes. And who can get tired of "Ai Copy"

But what do sedans have to do with ring times?

I wonder how many laps it got in before it had to be charged.
I think we have a higher chance of finding water on Europa than on titan.
