Do you people simply not bother to see to whom this message is going to? Do you not bother to do market research to see if I'm even going to be able to use the product? I am a man. I have a penis and not breasts. I am a guy, a bloke packing a "willie", a "johnson", "meat and two veg", a "one-eyed trouser snake", a "little fellow", a thingie, the "outy" parts to match up with the "inny" bits of the people to whom you should be sending this spam to and not me and my "Collection of dangly bits".
civ and civ 2 are sufficently different enough to both be worth playing. Civ 3 is ok, I like resources, I made an interesting invasion of a 2000 year-old friend for oil once:)
SC2000 is of course great for quick fun. 3K was crap, dunno about 4K.
Sim tower is nice, a bit annoying with certain features though.
Unfortunatly a P166 doesnt cut it for video editing:(
80MB ram helps. It runs debian/testing with windowmaker, no real problems unless I open >10 konqueror windows. It's got win98 on it too, wit hciv, civ2, sc2000 and sim tower
It seems doable with hardly much more technology than we have right now. Scaling up the production of carbon nanotubes to production of tonnes rather than milligrams is required, and a demonstration of a few percent more strength, and a reasonably large wodge of cash- about $15 billion;-)
Over 10 years thats nothing - $5 per year per american. Bring in Japan and Europe too and cost falls even futhur. I presume it would be bilt over ocean, probably "near" hawwii. 500 mile no-fly/no-ship-zone arround the area, covered by 24 hour patrols, would
1) give the military something to do 2) not be a tempting target for terrorists.
hell, for $15billion, theres a lot of people on Earth that could personally afford it.
After one's built, and successful, another one would presumably be cheaper. Build one in the indian ocean, one in the atlantic, and one in the pacific.
What happens when tivo records a show at 4AM, when you are watching something else? If I'm watching the A-Team on uk gold on my cable box, I dont want tivo flipping the channel half way though. Does it do this?
Imagine this. You're driving down the highway when your palm pilot beeps to alert you of a major accident up ahead, and suggests you take exit 91 to bypass the traffic. Little do you know it was some car-jacker getting you to drive into a dodgy part of town where no-one sane would go. Or perhaps ust some prankster sending you on a 50-mile detail.
the Signal to noise ratio on this would be unbelieveable, and people just wouldnt use it.
but I'd bet with these numbers in front of them, most bosses would have the pages designed for the majority..
Thoses bosses dont run shops which have facilities for the disabled do they? Costly elevators perhaps, which benefit noone apart from the 0.5% of people that are wheelchair bound?
Bang on. I went straight to uni (in the UK) after highschool. I cant believe how little I knew back then. I suck at the course at uni, sure I can get through, and with a little revision and luck I'll get a 2:1 in 6 months time. Thats really irrelevent. It's the experience and skills I've picked up here, managment, leadership, teamwork (yup, thats a biggy). All through student activities.
Of course I havent worked in a corporate environment, and I dont particularly want to. I have dealt with beurocracy, I have dealt with stupid budget policys (go over budget, get more to spend next year, keep to your budget, get less), 3 day waits to get a cheque (check) signed, etc.
Half my CV is extra-curricular activities over the last 2 years. When I think now how boring my life would be had I dropped out and worked in a small buisness keeping windows from spontaneously rebooting.
A friend of mine didnt apply for uni to start with - went to work for an "e-" firm. Got a ton of paper certificates, then tried to get into uni. Didnt try hard, got on a 5 year degree course (not 3 years like most UK ones). He's got 3 years of uni left now, and will have just as many debts as me, if not more, when he graduates - he lives the $30,000+ a year lifestyle on a $5,000 loan cheque). I could have walked arround the world when he graduates!
We see the enterprise D in "All good things... " too. That wasnt the real future, everything changed after picard found out about it, and informed the crew.
And Lal was based on data, and used the same type of positronic technology.
she spoke? Really? I cant remember, may (*may*, depending on extras - buy the dvd. Wes didnt get any voice-time, but he was in there screen-time (does he get any money for that)
Assuming Picard's clone-guy is at least 25 or so, that means they had to start cloning Picard back when he was just some random captain of a random ship (Stargazer?) Why'd they pick him?
Romulans arrived (back) on the scene at the end of season 1 - after a long absense. First captain they saw was Picard, he was captain of the flagship too. As to when they stole his DNA? No idea. Shame it wasnt brought up (flashback to an early episode where picard was captured, from a different view point, with some seedy romulans in it)
Of course they should have had Picard's nemesis being
1) Q (who is picards nemisis) 2) If they stuck with the script, played by Patrick Stewart.
Not even one throw-away line about Lore? What happened to him? You have a whole plot about another model of Data, and you don't mention Lore? What the hell? Even a line like "Lore's body was destroyed when the Enterprise D crashed." would have been appreciated.
I thought I heard one when they were on the bridge and detected the signal (only androids were me and Lore). They didnt mention Data's "mother" though - who was a soong-type android, or Lal.

More annoyances
1) Datas emotion ship - it's gone, as have his memories of it. Apparently. 2) No mention of Spock and the whole Unification plot-line. Even a throwaway line is better then nothing. (Picard - 'relations with the romulans have gone downhill since ambassador spock was killed in the dominion war', or something) 3) No use of a real admrill (Nagasaki, Necheyachev, Ross etc). Instead we get treated to a relic of that show.
That was lame, however, Whoopi Goldberg wasn't in it and she had a major roll on TNG as well. I think Wil, Whoopi and also Q should of been in it if this is truely the last TNG related movie.
Really? I'm sure I remember her sitting next to geordi at the wedding ceromony (presumably she left the Enterprise after the D crashed - the E doesnt have a Ten-Forward as such)

How do the parties get the pads?
Via email. Use a one-time-pad to encypt it.
Ireland (the whole island) was briefly conquered by the UK,
About 120 years is briefly?

That's no moon.. Its a space station!
of course it exists, didnt you see the "Under seige 2" documentry?

directions to the nearest station
To Temple-Meads? Why would anyone in their right mind want to do that?

No scene with Troi's wedding - from the vicars point of view. With a tree infront of Riker.
