Only if she tells the person about to sell it to her that she intends to send it to her relative in Iran. At that point, it's like selling a gun to someone who says the intend to use it to break the law. You become liable.
Actual accidents pretty much never put anyone in jail. There has to be negligence. Shit happens. These guys tried to put the fire out, manned up and called 911 when they could have just left and nobody would ever know it was them.
And the founding fathers were *unambiguously* clear in their adjunct writing (i.e. papers they wrote about the constitution to clarify) that the militia *was* the people, and that this meant *every* person could own a gun. Don't take my word for it. Research actual facts.
I'm gaming, just - i don't need much gaming power behind what an x1950 offers. I want to play quakelive in 1080p with 60fps, but i'm on an HDTV anyway, at 30Hz usually, so, framerate's not TOO pressing of an issue.
It also depends on the bitrate for me - if it's a 2 hr movie encoded to a 3G 1080p MKV, i'm going to be fine. If it's a 2hr movie encoded to an 8G 1080p MKV, I'm not. Still not the cpu maxing out though.
Card's definitely the bottleneck in my case. Just because you have a lower card doesn't mean much - our system, software, and hardware is not identical. Cpu is nowhere near maxed out. Also, I play a lot of stuff using only software acceleration (not 1080p though, it still gets all kinds of tearing in VLC and media player classic), because I have an ambilight system on my computer that needs to be able to see the pixels to match the light color.
Card ran better when I bought it than now, too. It's 5 yrs old.
My x1950 sucks for 1080p video (since, y'know, the HD line was the NEXT card after that), but it's fine for QuakeLive, which is the only game I really care about that much. But I know they have cards that "game good, video bad" as well as "game bad, video good". It's frustrating trying to figure out which product I should buy. My card was $200 in 2007. If I don't really want that much more than what I got then, why would I want to pay $500?
Now, I'm an ATI man who's been using TV out since 1995, non-stop. But I'm not willing to throw them so much money, especially when I have to change my entire operating system to accommodate their abandonment of "old" OSes like XP. Man, that jump to 64bit required updating so many scripts, and replacing so many utilities. Don't force change on me and I might give you more money, ATI.
I have read that particular fairytale [funny how you purport to know what I've read], but I don't waste precious space in my brain remembering a bunch of made-up bullshit I read in the 1980s.
You could imagine it, but baseless speculation with no evidence is as useless as the bible (or your comment). Back it up with some evidence, because every survey I've seen has shown america's students to perform poorly compared to the average of other industrialized nations. So for my own personal prior evidence, you're wrong. This, too, is useless speculation, but at least it comes from a baseline of actual data.
Which could be as simple as "That guy looks black, i'll pull him over". That's why it's important that the legal limit is actually one that makes sense, not something that keeps getting lower and lower and lower and more punitive. That just punishes those who get caught. The deterrent effect only goes so far; death penalty deters some murderers, but plenty are still willing to do it. At least with murder there is a constitution involved. With DUIs, the constitution is utterly gutted.

Better ban cigarettes and bug zappers too. Oh wait. They aren't guns so they are ok.
Yes. Because ONLY in america is target shooting allowed! Does it feel good stroking your mental dick pointlessly?
I don't plan on upgrading my motherboard anytime soon tho.. i'm super-picky on motherboards. Quite traumatized by abit going out of business.

I like stories.

hahaha..... well, that memory probably made college easier, at least. Next time video the jehova's witnesses - i could use a laugh!! :)

.....wut
You might want to ask god how there can't be a hell before he kicked lucifer out and made hell. Derp. Why am i discussing fairy tales on slashdot?
Hopefully that allows for modifications.. AND typos. Protocololololol: https://twitter.com/ClintJCL/status/215171446115278848
I think I'm going to have to tweet that one.
TRUE! But...still not a felony in my state.
There's a bibliography, but it's on a brain cell. Still no transport protocol for that payload yet.
Heuristically, you will find a strong overlap. Intelligence of one kind *tends* to come with intelligence of another kind.

You think the law should be stricter, but then contradict yourself by being glad such strictness is not 100% enforced. That's asinine.
I was going to respond, but it looks like the general public did it for me. Thanks, Public!
