If you have an Blockbuster store nearby each mailed rental you turn in at the store is a free rental. You also get two coupons per month for in store rentals. At least that's how it used to work
Everyone is not you. A great many people are poor, unskilled, uneducated laborers and often immigrants. They're already easily abused by employers due to lack of knowledge of labor laws, lack of resources to do anything about it and/or fear of repercussions.
Why not just go ahead and make it all verifiable?
Coercion. An employer or union boss can easily make sure their people vote the "right" way if they want to keep their jobs.
StarFlight actually works perfectly in CGA mode with DOSBox 0.74. There are still a handful of games that do not work, but that number seems to decrease with every release.
There's little to no demand for "vintage" IBM compatible hardware. Most people who would desire it are already swimming in it. The most "in demand" items are probably MFM/RLL hard drives.
I did answer your question. You use a scale. They are placed obviously around the produce section with large signs indicating they are for use with the self scanner.
Why are you assuming that someone who pirates it would not buy it new if piracy was not an option, but also assuming that someone who buys it used would buy it new if used weren't an option?
That doesn't make sense in a strategy game at all. The whole point of a new iteration is to refine the rules. That means trying new things, but it also means drastically changing or removing concepts that weren't ideal.
Computer games have been DRM'd almost as long as computers have been consumer items. I remember using nibblers on Commodore 64 and Apple II floppies in the early 80's. Not to mention the "Type in the X word on page Y" systems.
Personally I'm playing Civ 5 and Dragon Age right now. The former I expect to get hundreds of hours out of. If you're buying games, playing them for less than a dozen hours and never touching them again you need to work on your selection skills because you have no one to blame but yourself. Even if you're into FPS, then you should be choosing something whose multiplayer you will keep returning to (for me, TF2).
Your loss. Steam is a system where the DRM is incidental to improving the customer experience.
Your.sig is rather ironic considering you're spiting yourself out of an ignorant rage.
TI has $6.5 billion in cash lying around and we're wondering why our economy is in the shitter and where all the jobs are?
No. Are you fucking stupid? A cash transaction doesn't mean TI wheeled at pallet of hundred dollar bills around. That "cash" is numbers in a bank account. The banks don't keep all the money you give them locked in a vault. They put it to work in investments.
I wish slashdot would have a "collapse this" button. It would help avoid this or exit out of any other off topic discussion.
I usually read in Nested mode with threshold 1...it would be great if I could click on an arrow next to somebody post (like the GP) and anything nested below it would be hidden.
Click the title bar of a post, the tree collapses (requires JavaScript on of course).
But what good reason is there for CS to exclude the people who can't?
The reason is that it would no longer be computer science.
Especially when there are so many things about programming they don't even come close to teaching. Why don't they nix the calculus and have a semester on using source control, or working with a team?
Computer Science is not about teaching "programming". Computer science is the systematic study of the algorithms of information. Calculus is the language of algorithms. Calculus is the foundation on which the study of computer science is based.
It's entirely possible that you're an excellent programmer, but you're not a computer scientist. Don't confuse the two. Most working programmers in the field will never be computer scientists.A fantastic computer scientist need only be a mediocre programmer. They're tangential, at best.
You seem to be under the impression that a computer science degree should give you a trade school education, and angry that yours was not willing to. If you would like a trade education as a programmer, there are other courses of study that would better suit your needs.

So you choose to get the lowest quality produce at incredibly high prices because the concept of a scale didn't occur to you?
Who says he's on the Internet? We have loads of web based internal corporate apps.
Yes, in Episode 2 there was mention of the Aperture Science icebreaker Borealis going missing.
Most places don't let you return opened software, this is true. But I don't know of any who wouldn't do a same title exchange for a defect.
But the closest thing LA has to being involved is the fact that it is near Vandenburg AFB, where the shuttle almost launched from

I paid $50 for the pre-release of Civ4, and played that fucker for hundreds of hours over four years. Probably broke down to $1/hr.
Did you by any chance skip your math classes to play?
