Compare to the crap girls wear now that makes their asses look barely more appealing than a guys. Clothing doesn't have to be slutty for it to be appealing to men.
During my college years I drove buy a school using such uniforms and had me wishing my high school had uniforms. And the skirts looked to be just at the knee(some might have been a little above/bellow).
I so hope they release a patch so people can play multi-player with out them. Or even a stand alone server.
Not that I expect to play that much as I lost interest around level 20. Personally, they made the game require to much hardware for most my friends to buy it, and not being able to play LAN makes it less fun.
"if making an incorrect decision based on faulty data is an impeachable offense, we would have to clean out most of the executive AND legislative branches."
And the reason for not doing it is why?
I think most everyone is in agreement that they are all in it more for themselves than trying to do good.
OT I know, but your sig: "PC games lack single-screen multiplayer. Console games lack mods. So what should I buy?"
PC games lack of single-screen multiplayer is a bonus most of the times.(one of the 3 big reasons why I hate consoles) And there are some games that can be played with 1 computer for multiplayer. Worms, Civ4, etc.
There is no longer a US Constitution, or guaranteed rights. Every single guaranteed right no longer exists.
The government can say who can and can not have guns, and what guns they can have. You can be searched with out a warrant. Your property can be taken away for any numerous reasons, even with out any kind compensation. You can be held in jail with out being accused of a crime You are not presumed innocent and often are judged by the cop and punished with no recourse You are not allowed to protect yourself, family or property. Fed government does use a direct taxation. No Freedom of press, it is a license now, with kickbacks from the government.
I know these are not guaranteed by the Constitution, but are just as disgusting: Cops are allowed, and even expected to lie. Unknown, Bad, or selectively enforcing Laws. Legalized bribery in the government in the form of campaign contributions and lobbying. Two party system, locking out any other politician not in those systems
Since many viruses/trojans out there work to turn boxes into IRC or relay bots, why can't there be ones that turn it into p2p bot. If the people that RIAA/MPAA sue have said viruses it can end up helping to get public to see about how absurd some of these suits and laws really are.
Heck a virus that shares just say the top 10 songs on the RIAA hit list and using only 10kbs up, will go unnoticed by most people.
You can rarely upgrade CPU now days unless you bought what is considered a low end CPU. And even then you don't see the performance jump from say a Geforce 440MX to a Geforce 8500. (easy under $100)
Most people would spend ~100+ to upgrade a CPU for small increases and then their mobo is locked with PCI or AGP? Just spend ~150-200 for new CPU/RAM/Mobo, upgrade video card later. (I've been upgrading people to AMD 690V chipset mobo, and it has given them a large enough increase they didn't need the new card and the ones that did just cost another $50-150)
SO what I am saying is upgrading CPU is worthless unless upgrading the whole system, the video card is great, but at a certain point have to meak the leap because why continue to upgrade an aging and out of date system?
I have several certifications from comptia and other places (Sun, Cisco, MS), and I would not consider myself competent for this kind of forensic work. Got a nasty virus or think you've been hacked, format and re-install.
Best they could do is pass their educated guesses on to people who say them as fact in court.
I agree with your shielding, force field would become a must for several reasons like radiation. 1. long range and real time sensory is a bigger issue. You are seeing things where they use to be, and moving that fast
Energy is the easy part, we continue to develop nuclear or work on antimatter. The size/mass of it wont matter once it is out of our gravity.
I think we wont get shielding or long range sensory till after we can create gravity(or anti gravity) with a flip of the switch.
If I was ever arrested bot something technology related, such as copyright infringement, etc. I would ask my lawyer to weed out anyone who is not a geek. Not that all geeks feel the same as me, at least they will understand the issue better.
In all honesty, there are 3 reasons why I download movies/shoes/music on torrent.
1. I would have a digital copy on my server anyways, and this saves me the time/effort of encoding the files myself. I think it is utterly stupid to have a very soft piece of plastic in/out of use, expecially with kids.
2. I am refusing to give any RIAA/MPAA based company as much money as I can. The very few times was watchign harry potter, lord of the rings, with maybe a handfull of other exeptions the last 10 years. (wife likes to be taken to the movies ..) I want to hurt those companies as much as possible. I am mearly breaking laws that they have bought over the many years. And according to the declaration of independence it is our duty to fight back. And this will be a financial battle. Although it would be wonderfull seeing britney spears CD's at the bottom of Bostons harbor!
3. I am not paying for an DVD/CD version when I own the VHS/casset. Even if it is one I taped leagly off TV/Radio. If it is IP, then I already have leagle right to the IP.
I also serious doublt more than 20% of the people who download anything buy anything because of it. It just allows people who wouldn't pay for it no matter what, to have it too. To think otherwise is a lie.
If I was your parent I would have gone in with both guns blazing with that 2nd one, giving them hell. In no way would I allow my kid be to punished for doing exactly as a teacher asked. But then I prob would of had a nice conversation with the principal durring the first one that would have prevented the 2nd issue to have occurred. And I probability would not let you bring a laptop to school.
It doesn't take a computer literate person to know that 1. You went to a non allowed site because you did what the school IT person told you to do. 2. You used the teachers login with permission to do an assignment because of an overzealous IT person.
But as someone with an IT background I can bring up other things, such as the incompetent IT person taking things personal, and acting as such.
The IT person was way over zealous, was able to persuade school officials, but your parents need to be their for you, right or wrong.

"MS$ has never been at war with Novell. MS$ has always been at war with IBM...."
That is so not true. Here lay NetWare and Word Perfect, May they rest in peace. And not to forget poor DR-DOS.

Eh, I dunno, the last bar mitzvah I went to, I dressed like a renaissance knight.

Now everyone who bought the game can not play multi-player (the only reason most people buy games now days)
"How did this development fly under the radar for over two months without anybody noticing?"
Because no self respecting geek shops at best buy. (except for black friday)
What are you talking about? That is doctors for you. Oh they care, they care all the way to the bank.
I don't see any harm other than the fact that he may miss someone

"Funny in that they CAN'T STOP FUCKING MURDERS & OTHER CRIMES IN THEIR OWN PISSHOLE CITY : WASHINGTON D.C."
If they did we wouldn't have any politicians left . . .
The Constitution is meant to lay out basic rights that can not be allowed to be taken away for all humans.
And in America, the only rights we have are the ones they let us use, when they want us to. Which means, we don't have any.
Violence, or the threat of it has been the only thing that has worked in this world.
Actually here are two problems as I see it

You be lucky to have 10% of the energy arrive at the northeast from the southwest.
