Think of all the ways they use, telling you that they believe that you are a thief:
1. BSA. 2. License activation codes. 2. GWA. 4. DRM. 5. SCO lawsuit (Linux is stealing from us) (paid for by MS) 6. Advertisements in major magazines calling you thieves. 7. Reactivation required whenever you change hardware. 8. Secret interfaces in their OS, because otherwise you'll write software that will steal from them.
etc...
How would you feel if every time you went to work, your boss had you stripped and cavity searched every time you entered and left work, because he assumed you were a thief. That is how windows makes me feel. It's constantly probing you, trying to find any possible reason for calling you a thief.
That's one of the main reasons I prefer Linux. No anal probing.
Quick! Someone call James Tiberius Kirk - computer killer extraordinaire!!!
All Kirk could do is some stupid "He always lies" and "he always tells the truth" skit, whereupon the robot explodes.
You might as well just pull a coin from it's ear. This works quite well with MS based robots because of the "Where did you get that coin from, I thought we had already got it all" subroutine, which causes an overload, shuting down the entire power grid.
No need to worry. We only have 10 years of oil left, and then there will be no more carbon going into the atmosphere. I've been preached that fact since the early 70's, so it must be true, just like the coming global cooling (oops, it warming now).
1. Global warming is real, and is caused entirely by man, as our computer simulations prove. 2. They don't explain why Mars and all the other planets are also warming up. 3. They don't explain why hurricanes weren't worse in 2007, since the 2006 season was caused by global warming, which is caused by man, as out computer simulations prove. 4. Volcanoes have spewed out more greenhouse gasses in one event than has been created by people in 10 years (i.e. krakotoa and penatuba [sp] for example), and none of them have had any effect on global warming. 5. Therefore, global warming is real, and is caused by man, as our computer simulations prove.
Gamasutra is also reporting sales figures via Ebay for the two consoles. 15,000 PS3s were sold,
How many were put up on ebay and NOT sold? I'm guessing that there are not many more people willing to pay $1000 extra just to get a unit before the next shipment arrives. Think of all those thousands of poor people, who are now stuck with a $800 doorstop. Remember, they only bought it to resell it, not to use it.
That explains it! There I was, walking around in my suit of armor, when suddenly, WHAM! Stuck against the wall! And now, every time I pass the kitchen, the silverware shoots out at me!
Since Algore failed Divinity School, he obviously is much smarter than you. Until you can match his academic achievements, you are unworthy to even comment.

Spontaneous Generation is where the microbes in water came from
Nope. Not what they thought. They didn't know about microbes. The closest they came was "miasma".
Spontaneous generation how mice were formed from fermenting straw.
One of the oldest formulas goes like this. Kill a bull, and bury it so that just the tips of the horns stick above ground. Wait two weeks, then cut off the horns. Bees will now exit from the horns.
This is the level of "science" we are being bludgened with in "Global Warming" (always remember to capatilize religious entities). And don't you even dare to suggest there are any problems with it. Disbelievers will be fed to Xenu every third Sunday. Bring your own lunch.
Remember to bow down to the Preists (er, scientists) who proclaim the truth about the unknowable process of "Global Warming", which is caused by the evils of man, and we must visit dire punishments on the unbelievers (sinners). LONG LIVE XENU!
We almost had Oral Sex in the malls. Since his administration declared that Oral Sex isn't sex, selling it isn't prostitution, so it shouldn't be illegal, depending on what your definition of "is" is.
He just needs a more exciting political slogan for the bumber sticker croud.

For instance, do you want to steal from a enemy but only try it a few times? set the gambit to steal when the enemy is below 20% health and about to die.
What works for me, set the main character to steal when the foe=100%, and have the others follow the leader on their attacks (and nearest otherwise). Slap in a cure when characters 70%, and you end up with a lot less finger mashing. The main character steals once, the other characters hit that enemy, and then the main character moves on to the next enemy=100% available to steal from. You do occassionally try to steal twice from one foe, but its rare. Add in a regular attack to the main character when there's nothing to steal. You can also set a character to poach when the foe=critical, for even more loot, but it's not much better than getting dropped loot.
it is a mixture of cherry-picking, downright misrepresentation, and pseudo-scientific gibberish. But it has the virtue of being incomprehensible to anyone who is not an atmospheric physicist...
I thought this was about an anti-global warming article, not a pro-global warming one, but then I read this paragraph and...
And think of how much time you would spend every day verifying that your copy of Windows wasn't pirates (WGA). You'd need a very large network bandwidth just to handle that one load. Anyone remember the stories of people running shopping carts full of tubes through some of the older computers just to keep them running? With Windows, you'd have to have shopping carts full of keyboards and displays just to reboot all the BSOD's.
And, if you added another CPU, you'd probably have to buy all those Windows licenses all over again!
All they need to do is drop a SUV onto the planet, which will immediately cause global warming. Everyone who goes to the movies knows that global warming causes the planet to freeze over. You can then drop probes (with appropriate heating installed), with some old oil drillers, to drill to the center of the Earth to restart the magnetic field, to insert a nuclear bomb at exactly 700 feet...... Ouch, I think I'm getting my bad science fiction movies mixed together.

Hay dude, keep it quiet. Them narcs have been finding too many of our planting sites lately.
Sony sold 197k in the stores, but made up for it by selling 800k on ebay.
I'd prefer to die quietly, in my sleep, like my grandfather; not screaming and yelling, like the passangers in the car with him.
so let me see if I understand your logic.
1. Global warming is real, and is caused entirely by man, as our computer simulations prove.
2. They don't explain why Mars and all the other planets are also warming up.
3. They don't explain why hurricanes weren't worse in 2007, since the 2006 season was caused by global warming, which is caused by man, as out computer simulations prove.
4. Volcanoes have spewed out more greenhouse gasses in one event than has been created by people in 10 years (i.e. krakotoa and penatuba [sp] for example), and none of them have had any effect on global warming.

Depends on what your definition of supercomputer is.
For instance, do you want to steal from a enemy but only try it a few times? set the gambit to steal when the enemy is below 20% health and about to die.
What works for me, set the main character to steal when the foe=100%, and have the others follow the leader on their attacks (and nearest otherwise).
