So is it just another third person game on the market like Star Fox Adventures will be? (Another game which has changed format) I suppose it has the world advantage and probally a good story line. I'm not sure that's gona be enough to get the better of the other games in the same market.
I mean XP is more stable than 95 if that was the only reason he switched then it makes sense. I actually use the power of the command line on my linux machine and like the security of a secure web server.
Is it just me or does this sound suspicious? Perhaps this anonymous doner is someone planted my Microsoft. Then when the people come forward to claim their price Microsoft slaps them with a suit. Either that or offers them a job.
Well back in 1996 you really could win a million dollars from Bill Gates... well atleast a cruise.
See all the exciting things happening on the Internet in Latin America, and win big prizes at the same time! Register for the first Latin American Internet Explorer Race. You'll have a great time, and perhaps even win a Caribbean cruise!
It sounds as if the FBI is browsing the world at -1
I know to make things easier for the FBI they could have random people listen to random calls they would then mark them as [informative] [terrorism] [pathetic] [conspiracy] [drugs] [guns] [misc illigality] [sexy]
And then if it get's enough points then it goes to an FBI person and they check it out.
Shame there isn't already a system like this in place for them to base it off of.
What I look for in my games nowdays is the element of outside interference - items not in the control of either player (or any player, in the case of MP games). That's where the real creativity and brilliance comes in - the capability and flexibility to cope with situations which could not be reasonably forseen (though adept planning will make coping much easier).
What is it about voice recognition that suckers journalists in every time?
They're writing about what they see as most important. You need to remember that reporters/journalists/comentators in the print media want desperately to be in the non-print media (radio / tv).
I was hoping you were going for the fact that print journalists have to write a lot and since they often dictate into personal recorders to get a story and would rather not have to transcribe it later, to their computers, by hand.
The military uses needle-less pneumatic hypodermic injectors to do mass injections--perhaps lining up a regiment to all get a Tetanus booster or something. How is this related to McCoy's spray hypo? I'm not sure.
I know this one isn't true, the hypo-spray has been around way longer than Star Trek, it's just not in main use because it's hard to sterilize, and until very recently hurt like a bitch.
Maybe we could have intelligent robots going around fix rougue cells. This is already a procedure for many diseases, but now the DNA injected could be 'smart' DNA and know exactly what to change and what not too.
I mean, from the "spent $125 on cd's from her $.05 salary" and "the girl was arrested by the police who showed up at her door" and calling the artist "Sir-Paid-A-Lot"???!?!? This is almost word-for-word what I would have done if I was *parodying* propaganda....
Anyone else worried about the fact that this is also anti-minimum wage?
It's about as likely to drive the next generation of children away from filesharing as all those Captain Planet cartoons where to make people environmentalists. Less likely, since Captain Planet was less obviously hokey.
Actually I disagree, I watched that show as a child and though the pollution was very bad, and this was clearly a cause I should be for. It wasn't till I learned the science of what was going on before I realized that to be an environmentalist doesn't mean you know anything about environmental biology, just love trees. There's nothing we can do to 'destroy' the earth though pollution, only make out own lives miserable. Yes we're losing interesting species in the rain forest, but the trees will grow right back up in 100 years. Maybe long for us but not for the earth. And when energy actually becomes a concern we'll jump onto something else. We could all be running off antimatter, made in space and transported down to earth. Cost efficient and everything, just we already have a system in place which have money and don't want things to change.
that makes sense the same way that anti-helmet law people say that sometimes not wearing a helmet saved someone's life (there are a few documented cases).
Ignoring this fact of course, once again the government is protecting people from themselves. Anyone who needs it to be a law to protect themselves doesn't deserve to live. If you don't want to take some safety precautions, don't. Let them die. I don't want these people running around.

You could redo the old Star Trek series," mused Bonchune. "The original mission was only three years. You could do two more entirely in CG."
They did is was called Star Trek the Animated Series
Stay Offline?

We're they in trouble for making pc makers install windows on their systems? Isn't this even worse? Hopefully the government will see this one.

Worst. Prequels. Ever. Rest assured that I was on the Internet within minutes sharing my disgust with the world.
I hear George Lucas actually shut down Tatooine for filming Star Wars.
This is of course to avoid it coming out on the internet before it comes to theaters.
No wonder all the UFOs and Aliens come to Earth, their looking for a place to live and no where else will do.
R-R-R-Rock!
Yeah not since Sneakers had we seen real hacking.

Comparing Unix with MAC is like comparing Apples and ora.. oh.. wait. Apple.
Or maybe like comparing Apples and Penguins.

Might I suggest Knighmare Chess by Steve Jackson Games.
For a good sci-book that has even been reviewed on Slashdot, here,
Read Diamond Age by Neil Stephenson.
Yeah, right! All this really means is that there will now be DIVX copies of Next Gen online.

Now we can assimilate people.

Brandeis University decided to just block all pings from dorms. Annoys me cause port scans are now harder (well atleast if I want -O)
