I remember overhearing two kids talking about that. One complained who he was just stuck in that dark room. The other kid then instructed him to turn off the god mode.
I swear to god - kids just keep getting dumber and dumber.
You would just need to find what kind of HD-video content Guido is into (my guess... German lederhosen-latex porn), distract him with it and then hit him on the back of the head with a lead pipe.
Don't worry. Guido's are just genetically engineered, they are not real people, so its not murder. But it still is breaking the copyright protection.
It is more like expecting McDonald's saying they will give 50c from each purchase to a fund to end the world hunger, but ONLY if you order your BigMacs wearing at least 1500$ worth of Armani clothing and apparel.
1999? That is like 3 years after the movie came out.
How did you manage to not get pounded by Cheech Marin's "introductory speech" in those 3 years? Every idiot I ever came across would know at least a part of it (and was willing to share that knowledge), and then he would tell me that its form that Clooney/Tarantino movie... "You know... the one with stripper with a snake and the vampires".
And sorry if that last sentence (of the previous post) upset you in any way...
I mean it's just... almost an accomplishment to manage to stay out of tune with all the crap our eyes and ears are flooded with every day. I wish I could. Then I would never have heard of Jackass or Ali G and Borat.
I, like many others, saw the movie without knowing more than the above description.:( In this day and age... how did you manage THAT?! No... really... I'd like to know... If it's not the idiotic trailer it's the idiotic TV host/journalist.
Or the commercial on some site somewhere.
If it's not them - then it is the idiot friend that just happens to know the ending too.
So like... you live in a log cabin somewhere... with no electricity or internet? Right?
it is OK to bully your competitors, and engage in illegal activity, and be convicted of crimes as a company as long as your CEO gives the money to 'worthy causes". Wasn't that exactly the same strategy that certain CEO from England used while back? Bulling competition? Yeah.. funny nobody mentions Trevor and his happy lads anymore.
Who knows... 200-300 years form now... Bill Gates may be remembers as William "The Good" Gates who took from the ritch and gave to the poor. And Steve Ballmer may be remembered as Jumpin' Steve. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-344693193 1514285011
I'm not even going to go into is it humane. Or how it can be abused.
But, did anyone else notice that the basic idea is that you start of with targets already at least 250 meters away? Plus, reading into article reveals that the ray is intended to focus on single targets. Oh yeah... really useful. Just have five guys run towards the vehicle form different directions. It won't trip them, or push them back when it hits them like a water cannon would. They will feel intense heat. So, you target potential human bomb A, while potential human bombs B,C,D and E continue to run towards the vehicle. And, while target A is in pain (unless he is on some kind of pain-dulling drug) they feel nothing. So you switch to target B. Now target B feels the pain (maybe... unless he or she is drugged up to the gills) and maybe stops advancing, but the target A is up and running towards you again.
And all that if the targets start out from the distance of 250 meters or more.
As a crowd suppression and dispersion tool, this is going to be practically useless.
Something similar happened to me once when in a moment of absentmindedness I first removed the protective strip and THEN shook the toner. Lets just say that my colleagues were not amused. At first.
But when they realised that the cloud concentrated only around me - they found it much more amusing.

Oh... wait... I thought for a second, you were mixing in German words there. Nevermind.

1. I don't want to see him in that suit.
2. I don't want to see him fly.
3. He's got to fight a giant spider in the third act.

Who's ever those genes are - he or she is not on the list. Move along.
But nice to see that they have upgraded Prof. Suresh's software to do colours.
Ummm... I don't know how to tell you this but... you have a problem.

Still working. My father still does his Word/Excel stuff on it.
And it still has its original CMOS battery.
If "perfectly well" means watching the dock icons bouncing in slow motion on a 1GB G4 - then yes. It works perfectly well.
Youtube links just work?
Which money?
Linux is free, and its not like they are shipping "empty" Macs, so you are stuck with the X anyway.
At least on non-Macs you have a choice to buy your PC without the "sellers-choice" OS.
Note that there are 6 integers between 0 and 7.
That is kind of like switching from a Volkswagen to a Renault because the other one comes with a cupholder.
Sean Connery gasps: "But in the Latin alphabet, 'de jure' is written with an 'I'!"
How about finally releasing the English version of The Fall - Last Days of Gaia? http://www.the-fall.com/e/index.php

I mean... there is a fan-made patch but still no English version. http://www.nma-fallout.com/forum/dload.php?action
Umm... no.

It is not the decreasing currency value alone that is causing the price of copper to go up - it is the decreased supply on the world market.

If you put your mind to it, you can accomplish anything.
Wo-HO! Parent post just got me my first negative karma.
Who would have thought it would be THAT easy.

But as a tool for torture? Top notch product!
