Have other cards been offered as 'limited editions'? I was reading the review and thinking "cool, I'll have that in a year..." but then noticed they're only shipping 1000. Then I thought, no way, it might be _that_ card that's just 1000 units, but I'm pretty sure one almost like it will follow.
Doom is about an experience while the UT franchise is about gameplay. Mark Rein doesn't realize the difference and thought it would be a good idea to wreck the game play for UT3.
Hey Mark, you retard, for games like UT, the 'core community is where it's at. You think it doesn't matter because it's usually just a few hundred players, but they're the ones who host the servers, create fan web sites, drive sales.
Mark Rein is the dumbest CEO in the world that's what happened. He killed what could have been the greatest franchise ever, yet he probably reminds himself daily of his brilliance.
Gamers the world over would dance in the streets if he was no longer with Epic.
I think the fact that Verizon does not have coverage in her home town is the important factor -the death of her husband caused her to move, but the _move_ prompted the early termination.
Ever bought a membership at a health club? I did, just two months before my job forced me to move to another state. Trying to cancel was like asking a loan shark for forgiveness. I think exceptions for circumstances like these should be standard in long term contracts.
Fuck that. The more unorganized and uncontrollable the internet is the better. This is a money grab by the registrars and nothing good will come of it for anyone else.
No sir, EFI is the kludge here. Slow to boot, needlessly abstract and complicated, doesn't bring anything to the table we don't already have...Anyone who thinks EFI is a good idea is either uninformed, misinformed, or employed by Intel.

Linus continued in a followup email, "don't get me wrong - the problem with EFI is that it actually superficially looks much better than the BIOS, but in practice it ends up being one of those things where it has few real advantages, and often just a lot of extra complexity because of the 'new and improved' interfaces that were largely defined by a committee." He went on, "so EFI has this cool shell, a loadable driver framework, and other nice features. Where 'nice' obviously means 'much more complex than the simple things they designed in the late seventies back when people were stupid and just wanted things to work'. Of course, it's somewhat questionable whether people have actually gotten smarter or stupider in the last 30 years. It's not enough time for evolution to have increased our brain capacity, but it certainly _is_ enough time for most people to no longer understand how hardware works any more." As for BIOS, Linus noted, "not that I'd ever claim that the BIOS is wonderful either, but at least everybody knows that the BIOS is just a bootloader, and doesn't try to make it anything else."
Not as long as the rules are dictated by the developer/distributor. If the "competitive" fans of a franchise had something to say about changes in new revs then community killing disasters like UT3 would never happen and a league might have a chance.
The only thing they do at firefox is stir up the UI. They should have spent the past 4 years optimizing instead of one by one removing buttons I use. Some idiot there with some power looks at chrome and thinks the way chrome looks is why it's popular -and announces that firefox 4 will be a major overhaul of the UI. Like, what release hasn't been about the UI?
whatever 'geeks only' technology you're talking about only needs an abstraction layer that makes it simple and some flashy artwork that makes it shiny. But the tech needs to exist first, and that tech will certainly be created by a collective of selfless enthusiasts.
If google would throw a pile of money at t-mobile's poor 3G coverage I think sales would pick up considerably. I've been with t-mobile for years but I'm thinking of switching to AT&T now -I had to move recently and haven't seen a '3G' on my phone for 6 months. My only hesitation is I like the t-mobile phone lineup (and they're not verizon).
I think what you're missing from the GP's post is that he's considering three "abilities" and you only two. 1)knows right from wrong 2)is able to see the consequences of actions 3)has lost the teenage sense of invincibility.
Until I was in my 20's I was incapable of failure. Sure looking back there were failures, but at that time, whenever I looked ahead I never saw them coming. From what I've read (I have synaesthesia so I'm always reading lay articles about the brain) this is the norm.
I wasn't, but if I was an armed robber when I was 17 or 18 I'd know that it's wrong to steal but I'm sure I would have this perfect plan that would go off without a hitch, no one would get hurt, I would get pile of money and I would never get caught.
You're mostly right. Back in the 90's Sun was so successful in hyping Java I remember VC's funding software companies _just_ because they were focusing on Java. Got it into a lot of (maybe all?) schools too. So damn near every young developer knows Java now and as a result that language gets chosen over others.
So yeah, letting it die might not work, we'll have to be more proactive.
I flat out refuse to say, write, or type mebi anything. Anytime I see MiB anywhere that I have write access I _correct_ it. The world got along just fine for all these years with _everyone_ knowing wtf means what until a few busy bodies with undeserved influence have to go and confuse things. Bastards.
You're confused. Maybe your one of the hundreds of people that post 'answers' in community forums, "Don't do that, never do that. Do this instead". In any case, what you're posting here today isn't a yes, it's a no.

I'm guessing he got it from the same place I did, by observing the victims firsthand.
UT3 could have been Epic, but Epic nerfed it for the console.

I can't understand why they want to deprecate the best file manager ever and elevate the worst browser ever.

Useless abstraction layers are useless.

Perhaps the most striking change to Firefox 4 is the user interface...
There's a shocker.

Well, near as I can tell the purpose of scribd's existence is to derail your effort to get a question answered, so I don't think it matters.
I hate scribd more than I hate experts-exchange. Wish there as an easy way to make google remember my minuses.

Maybe he's doing it because he actually thinks applications written in other languages are n times more likely to be buggy pieces of crap?

"...Hate speech becomes hate speech by being use by the haters. That is the same way your favorite words have come to be hate speech."
It goes the other way too.
And quit the psycho analysis, you suck at it.
For the record, I deny the word 'gay' is hateful in the context used today in this forum, and so does the lesbian sitting next to me.
You're wrong. Gay does not mean homosexual. Homosexual means homosexual.
Fifty years ago some retards _appropriated_ the word gay and made it mean something else. Fine.
Well, _twenty_ years ago _my_ generation appropriated it again, and for twenty years the word gay has meant:
"Something is broken, lame, or does not work as intented or advertised."
So quit it with your knee jerk political correctness, it's fucking gay.

xrandr works fine on it with the driver I'm using.
False. You can't use xrandr to enable/disable/setup multiple screens, so it does not work fine.
