Hi, Terry. Nobody runs open relays any more. The spam comes from zombie windows boxes. Spam wasn't invented when AOL connected to USENET, it was popularized when Cantor and Siegel unleashed the green card spam. For an old-timer, you're remarkably poorly informed.
Funny, I know a guy who got railroaded by the Ph3ds and spent a couple years in the pen. He was a total contrarian prick who liked to fuck with people and then laugh about how stupid they were afterwards. I did a lot of the same shit he did, hung out with the same people, and I never got busted. He did time because (1) he just HAD to fuck with a former employer, just to show them how stupid they were and (2) turns out the company were even bigger assholes and liars than he was. Did something like 19 months inside and then later got the charges overturned because they were bullshit. But Itellyawhut, everyone at the old company was chuckling up their sleeves at the prick who got his comeuppance. Not saying this applies in any way to your case, of course.
No, that would be when the developers hoard all of the items and gold for themselves and distribute just barely enough for the paying customers to survive. Despite the five-year plan that showed that treasure distribution was occurring on paper, lower level admins and moderators would hoard resources for themselves for sale on ebay and taobao. Gold farming and profit-making would be illegal, and grounds for banishment. The manifesto by O'Brien would be worshipped as a sacred document, studied in universities, and contradicting it would be grounds for banishment. Other players would be recruited as spies to inform on anyone who spoke against the developers. Players would spread out from GW2 to other games, trying to spread the gospel of O'Brien, with assassinations by polonium poisoning if necessary. Emigrating to any other game would be forbidden.
Who's talking about not feeding critters we like? I'm talking about taking a nice hike and not being stung painfully. What's a normal person's reaction to that? "Oh, that was nice!" What's a nutcase's reaction? "FOREST NO GOOD!"
I just went through about eleven pages of search results for bees and didn't find anything about hating bees, except a few references on how to protect yourself from killer bees. You sure you're not projecting your own hatred onto others?
*whoosh*. The ship that sank the Sydney was in the German navy, with sailors on board. A disguised naval vessel is hardly the same as a civilian with guns on board. Whatever, people see what they want to see.
Way to have half a piece of information. The French had a plan - advance into Belgium and meet the Germans head-on. Who could have guessed that the Germans would pass through impassable terrain and precisely hit the single weak point between the strong Maginot Line and the first-string armies in Belgium?
The forestry industry has this odd idea that "managed" means planting one species, equally spaced for easy harvesting, and often not even a species native to the region.
That is exactly what a managed forest is. In the immortal words of Inigo Montoya, "You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means."
"Managed" is a relative term, and open to damn near any interpretation you wish.
No, it is a precisely defined term. Why am I not surprised to see muddle-headed post-modern nonsense posted by a Seattle environmentalist? Diversity is a racial term, and here it is in an environmental context. Environmentalists aren't happy unless humans are miserable. Who else would actually complain about the lack of stinging pests?
Well, that's nice but - Google Android 2.1 Chinese is a definite loser. It's also brand new so high price. And Pleco only runs on Palm and Windows Mobile! Pleco is a must-have...thanks for the info though.
Pissed off? Who's pissed off? Asshole nationalistic pride? Whose feeling are being hurt, here, exactly?
Psychological projection is the unconscious act of denial of a person's own attributes, thoughts, and emotions, which are then ascribed to the outside world, such as to the weather, the government, a tool, or to other people. Thus, it involves imagining or projecting that others have those feelings. Peter Gay describes it as "the operation of expelling feelings or wishes the individual finds wholly unacceptable--too shameful, too obscene, too dangerous--by attributing them to another."--Wikipedia
I was considering getting an HTC Diamond (yeah I know, I'm a late adopter). But the real trick in China is to get a phone that supports 3G, GPS, and Wi-fi all in the same package. I'm similarly not an Apple worshipper, so no iPhone for me. Any hardware that fits the bill? All the mainland phones seem to be crippled and only have GPRS and Wifi instead of 3G.
Well, for a place that's not a country, the EU sure behaves like one. Got a flag, currency, legitimately elected leaders, the whole deal. Taking pride in one's nation is bad. You'd think a European would know that the graveyards in Europe are filled with firm believers in nationalism.
Now that you explain it this way, it makes the baffling Obama worship a lot more understandable. Honestly, who could ever support a slippery politician from the south side of Chicago?
Ever seen a video of a cameraman in a fight?

Ever seen a video of a cameraman in a fight? Camera goes haywire and you can't see anything but a big blur. But, like most security snake oil, I'm sure that won't make any difference to the buyers.
Honestly, how much of this is actually worth pirating, anyway?
A defining moment of my life came in 1998, when I finally landed a coveted ISP job. (Go ahead, laugh, it was a big deal back then.) At last, I had local 100Mb access to a Usenet server with a full alt.binaries feed. A co-worker had spools upon spools of burned CDs of MP3s. I spent one ten-hour shift examining these CDs one by one. There was almost nothing that I actually cared to listen to. A notable exception was the soundtrack to Tron (the 1982 original - not that I should need to say that, but seeing the empty desert of creativity that is 2010, I feel the need to) as well as less than 100Mb of other MP3s. The local access to the Usenet server proved equally as useless, except for the firehose of porn. What's the point of pirating the NBC Sunday night line-up, when it's all crap anyway? There are just people out there to whom accumulating shows is an end in itself. It's a pathological need, like those old ladies who collect 150 cats in one house and then let them all starve.
I used to know this guy (hi v0yager!) who made a living out of paying bums with valid ID $20 to go into courthouses and request public information. Go ahead and engage in mockery, I understand it's what passes for argument in this day and age.
Please be verrrry careful about accusing others of 1940s style repression. I mean, Ireland might not be the same as everywhere else (diversity uber alles) but hell they didn't kill six million Jews like you Europeans did.

The bottom line is that when it comes to simplified and repetitive tasks there's really no beating robotic prowess.
Now if they can just teach the robot to play MMORPGs!
Ordinary people think the ads are part of the search results. It's been proven with testing. Google's evil genius showing through.

What part of based on the Ultima universe do you not understand?
Why would people be doing that? Strange. I ride my bike and nobody throws trash or screams at me. Maybe this random image I found on the net could shed some light on the subject?
