I never said don't do anything, I said shit happens. As does rain, as you pointed out. Now when it rains, do you jump up and down about how much damage we're causing to the planet that's lead to this terrible rain? Or do you simply do indoors?
The planet is getting hotter. Slip slop slap and get a pool.
I'll explain it to you. If I make something, it's mine, to do with as I please. If I choose to sell/give it to you, it is now yours, to do with as you please. A slave is something stolen, so human-rights aside, it's not yours.
SSSSSH! Quiet! you'll wreck the propaganda machine! If joe sixpack knew what the depleted meant in depleted uranium, he wouldn't believe the "thousands of dead iraqis from spent DU rounds after the first gulf war" crap... Then where would we be?
Good on him. Nobody's done more damage to the world and the progression of science than greenpeace. Their scaremongering and anti-nuclear propoganda has kept us in the dark ages digging up dead dinosaurs and spewing their burnt remains into the air.
Perhaps instead of completely pseudo-random stuff, have certain goals and story options beforehand, and have variations based on it, like say you have 8-15 towns, one of these 6 npcs must be found spread amongst these towns, at some stage depending on which npcs where picked various story events occour, and you walk around randomly generated cities in a randomly generated landscape, and to people on the inside such as the developers they could quickly guess which parts of the story were being included / excluded, but for gamers it would provide many replays.
Hahahaha! Yeah sure they're anonymizing internet access for iranians with US funds.... I bet.
And we'll see how long after the next terrorist bombing it is before every ali sixpack who's "anonymously" downloaded the jolly roger gets shipped to cuba.
Erm, what do you think the difference is between a different clock speeds of the same cpu? They print them up, the ones with less errors get a higher clock speed.
Of course it probably is spammers, but it wouldn't suprise me if some people who've had themselves blacklisted unfairly would like to ddos some blacklist servers into the beyond.
Personally I don't believe blacklists are the way to go, I think simply intelligent filtering should be installed wherever possible, and eventually spam will die out. I know spammers are smart and work their way around all sorts of blocks, but so are we, and there's a lot more of us than there are of them.
ObDisc:Don't bother flaming me about "collateral damage" or any of that crap, since I'm not the one ddosing the servers, and I've yet to find myself blacklisted, so I'm not interested.
That's the first thing that sprang to my mind when I read that as well!:)
But all jokes aside, this is what's going to push manking further. People like John Carmack who are smart, driven, and can afford to play in aerospace. Maybe Armadillo won't be the company that makes space travel cheap or even possible for the average successful joe shmoe, but somebody like him will. Given the tantrums thrown by nasa when somebody wants to go up to space who's not an "astronaut" even on another country's rockets, it's sure as hell not going to come from them, even in competition with the [russians|chinese|indians].

It's a perfectly cromulant word!

If the original copy was made by somebody who paid for it in a physical form, then yes i agree.

That this post is modded as interesting and not funny is all the proof we need that the system does not work.
No, global warming is simply something that happens... The earth gets warmer for a few millenia, then it gets colder for a few millenia.
Shit happens.
REDHAT CANNOT LET YOU DOWNLOAD IT WITHOUT BREAKING THE LAW!
Why? Winamp does.
tra la la lump-a-do.... let's all hear it for the lamensss filter that stops me quoting too much caps in my message.
Actually I was thinking he'd be best leaving the pot, along with a nice note:
"Well, since you're dealing pot from my building, I have a sneaking suspicion your rent has gone up 500%"

Yes, but the *nix C++ crowd is definitely the group of the largest programmers :)

Aren't celine dion cds non-functioning in computer hardware already? If they're broken off the shelf, how can we tell how long they last? ;-)

I agree, there is NO chance for another closed source OS on the x86, except for apple, but that's never going to happen.
Nuts to that, I want to see Night's Dawn as a movie... Sure it's space opera, not core-sf, but it's fun with some cool gadgets, and a grouse hero.
But how many volkswagons per library of congress is it travelling at?
Eeyu! Look anal? I can see being anal, or sounding anal, but I'd hate to look anal!

Not too bad dude, just trying to find a job. Yourself? Going up to see ben and nik this week.
There's nothing descriptive about the name Oracle for database software? Do you know what the world oracle means?

Man... this is getting way too much like that hideous disaster that i seem to remember from the 80s.
:) Warney rawks.
Man that was a black day for Australians. Lucky we've got warney chatting up sluts the world over to make it up for us
