That is about 23 Gs. MAYBE a human could survive it, for a mere 10 seconds, with proper cushioning. No way in hell a human could be piloting it at that acceleration.
My biggest problem with the ATITD2 beta is the lack of instructions. I played ATITD for a bit so I understand the premise of the game, but i still got lost after a couple of minutes. The UI is not very intuitive, either to a newbie or to someone used to other MMOGs. And the method of progression is completely unknown to new players. I got lucky enough to start near a guild (or whatever) building that offered membership and access to tools if you just went and gathered a few things for them... but I had no idea where to get the things. Sand, ok, easy. Grass, again, easy. Wood, a little harder, but I figured out you could click on the trees so that wasnt too tough. But slate? where tf do i get slate?
troll about copyright laws... There is nothing illegal about having warez. There is nothing illegal about using warez. There is nothing illegal about downloading keygens. There is nothing illegal about distributing keygens. There is nothing illegal about using keygens. There is nothing illegal about distributing valid keys.
The *ONLY* illegal step in the entire process is creating (downloading and/or burning) the copy.
no, you wouldnt. if someone accepts LOAF-ish emails only, you would simply have to have a mutual friend who DOES use LOAF. If you are bob's friend, and bob is tom's friend, then tom's master LOAF hash will include all of bob's hashes, which will include your email address.
There is no central list. The concept is that you append a list of YOUR friends to the end of each email you send. No one can read the list alone, but they can check if specific addresses are in it. So when someone new emails you, you check their address against all the known-good LOAF hashes youve recieved, this will tell you if they are a friend of a friend of yours.
WC3... redefined... in the same sentence. What are you smoking? WC3 did nothing new. It didnt copy good things other games have done. WC3 is a 3 year step backwards in RTS development in every aspect except graphics.
Until your parent post I never even noticed that gmail had ads. I have been ignoring normal google ads for so long that that side of the screen just didnt register with me. Thanks:(
only if someone passes a law making the "extortion" part illegal. nothing to prevent someone from lowering the value of someone elses posessions as long as they arent breaking a law doing it.
What money is "real" then? There are currency exchanges where you can convert one virtual currency for another, and sites where you can buy/sell virtual currency for "real" currency. Its as much a commodity as any other currency.
As to the law applying, its a matter of PRECEDENT. I didnt say they would pass a new law. They dont have to. As soon as a judge rules that scamming virtual currency is against EXISTING fraud laws then what this guy did becomes illegal, in a somewhat retroactive fashion. Precedent doesnt have to pre-date the crime, it only has to pre-date the day its applied again in court. This is why you sometimes hear of a court postponing a decision until a [higher profile / more important] case in a [higher] court is decided which will affect the outcome.
As soon as a court precedent is set concerning virtual currency, and I dont think it will be much longer considering how bad the scamming is getting, all these people can sue the piss out of this guy. 480mil Isk today is worth about $500. Depending on how long ago this scam happened it could have been worth upwards of $5000 then.
you would have an area of high pressure below the bottom rotor, neutral (normal) pressure between the rotors where one high pressure zone coincided with one low pressure zone, and an area of low pressure above the top rotor
who cares if it gets knocked full of holes? as long as the dust doesnt hit whatever the sail is pulling, i dont see it mattering as long as the damage isnt total and is roughly uniform in distribution.
Doom3 runs horribly on my machine. UT2k4 runs beautifully on machines HALF the cost of mine. unless something drastic changes, I dont see Doom3 modding becoming nearly as popular.

a combination of well calibrated sensitivity and wet-road-tire-like grooves prevents the water from activating them.

there are all-rubber keyboards that roll up, that could be an alternative if plastic KBs arent your thing

unzip two copies, find any differences, produce a third copy with random garbage in place of whatever the watermark is.
did you just say 4/8"?
plagiarism or not, its the only resort in classes where the teachers dont allow internet citations
i tend to use resources on the web to write my papers. then ill go to the library to find the books the web site cites and cite them.

then youd buy the celeb's "mostly used" heart and wait a few more years for a more reasonably priced heart to come onto the market.
I cant afford new tires, so I buy used tires. They wont last as long, but I can buy more of them with the money I save.
Just like dollars arent really yours, the federal government is just letting you hold onto them.

But just imagine what you could do with a beowulf cluster of ignorant slashdot readers....

linux gamers cant run umod's
