I have also been annoyed by the need to collapse everything when right clicking the start button but I feel a more easy fix for me has been to instead use windows button+E.
My advice is: Stop buying crappy chocolate! If you buy high quality chocolate then you will be satisfied with less and can stop thinking about whether it's good for you or not:)
60Hz while flickering is not enough for me. Give me 10-30 min of that and I have a migraine. For me to be able to use this I would need around 75Hz for each eye. But as others has stated. This not new technology. I had a couple of glasses like these sometime around 1999. They where only limited by what my screen could handle and since I could press it up to 120 without any real trouble...
You know, the Nazis didn't start out the way they ended. It was more or less a case of boiling a frog.
But that is beside the point he said that they were Gestapo not that they where Nazis. There are a difference. One spies on their own citizens to stop terrorism and other things considered dangerous for the nation and the other had an organization called Gestapo.
Maybe he should have said Stasi instead which would have made the point as well but he was more or less quoting the politicians in the link he provided.
Professionals who doesn't so easily get swayed by a lawyers sweet talk. I find it almost insane to let people with no legal training at all decide the fates of other people in the manner juries do.
I wouldn't expect a plumber to give consistently good advice in medical issues any more than I would expect a doctor to do so in issues concerning plumbing so why should it be any different in regards to law?
Sure, I agree that what you say could become a problem but remember who chooses the juries. What's to say that they can't be pressured into doing the "right thing"? Or why not simply make sure that the only ones being called to jury duty are the right wing fanatics that you need?
I don't think your system is any safer than ours but a least we have professional bastards:)
In Sweden the news media has the habit of obscuring the photos of the suspects and avoids using their names until after he/she has been convicted but habit is all there is to it. There is no law against it. They have just thankfully taken the "innocent until proven guilty" serious most of the time.
On the other hand they have no problem plastering the photos of the victims all over the place which I find to be a bit cold most of the time.
Oh and in regards to taking photos of police officers, the police is required to wear identification visible, and that includes the helmets of their riot gear, for the specific reason that it should be possible to identify them in case they resort to police brutality.
May I suggest using a bit more modern translation? No real reason to use old and bad translations except that it sounds a bit ritual:) This one seems to be a bit better: New International Reader's Version
Only in programming (false == false) == true Everywhere else two wrongs doesn't make one right. Seems to me that there are a lot of cheating and corruption in the OS.
I say shut it all down and let everyone have a time out untill they all can agree to play fair.
There are many definitions what "moral" and "ethics" mean but the defintion I learned in school and I stick by is that ethics are the rules that you live by. Such as no stealing, no lying, no killing. Moral is how well you stick to those rules.
So if I have the above rules but lie and steal then my morals suck;) If for instance I don't have the rule about stealing then I can steal all I want and still have good morals.
If it is electric shaver with a cord it could also be dropped into a bathtub with the victim to electricute them. Or simply strip the cables and electricute them that way...
There is a lot of talk about killing porsitutes but I can't recall any instance in all the games where you are encouraged to do that. Yes you are free to do that but you are never forced to do it. If little Timmy enjoys going around beating virtual women then that might be a problem with his upbringing, not with the game.
Sorry, you're not allowed to live on Antarctica without permission from the UN and guess who controls that?:) Not sure but North pole might be a better choice. Me, I would probably perfer the middle of the atlantic.
Not sure if Finland has made any changes to their system but if I recall correctly more or less ALL their trafic goes through Sweden anyway. So at any time they send mail to someone outside Finland it will be allmost guaranteed to get stuck in the Swedish wiretapping... But hey, as long as we can catch all those nonexistant terrorists in Sweden right? Terrorists doesn't know anything about encryption right? Wouldn't supprise me if a simple ceasar crypt or L337 speak would be able to trick those systems. L3tS p14nt teh b0mb! *sigh*
Call me old fashioned but there is also the alternative to simply tell your children that they are not allowed to play certain games.
My mother caught be yelling "kill him" excitedly while watching a game of Last Ninja when I was 10 and subsequently forbid me to play that type of game. I obeyed that one command at least until I was 17 even though she had no real possibility to check that I was doing so.
Of course even in my family us siblings obeyed our parents to different degrees but I still belive that this would be less of a problem if more parents actually raised their children and not only let them grow older.

It's worse than that. In Sweden they are driven around as buses...

Sorry, just have to point out that since you mentioned that Goodwin's law was invoked the discussion will not end as stated in Goodwin's law. :)
That said I do agree with the sentiments you express.
One of my cats actually managed to do it while my wife played DDR. Guess they didn't like the music... :)
Anyway, it resulted in one wiped memory card... :)
Oh, and if you don't make it out alive? Can I have your console?

Hm, in the future you might want to tag things like that with "Not work safe" :)

On the other hand in some rpg:s a skill role of 100 equals critical failure :)
It's not over yet. RIAA is still alive...

All too true. If you ever see pictures from Dresden after the bombing it's hard to belive that it isn't from a nuked town
True true, the problem of course is that MTV/Hollywood/McD/etc got better research and more money to brainwash our kids than we do :)
;))
(If I didn't laught at it I would probably kill myself

Actually, I belive that Brainiac tried this out and found that banan peels actually are very slippery :)
Nah, he just thruw his hammer even though he was the thunder god
