These people are going to die if they don't stop the torpedo. In this context, fuck aquatic sealife. It's not as if they're travelling the countryside blasting this thing because they're bored!
If you take away the opiates of the masses, they believe the workers should own the means of production, which in turn makes for some really really bad countries.
Define successful. I'm not sure if you've noticed, but it would take over $140,000 from each and every US citizen to pay off the debt and liabilities the US government has dug itself into, and US citizens are no better -- the official savings ratio for US citizens officially reached 0% a couple months ago.
If I wanted to, I could look like I was doing well too, if I took out all the money anyone would hand to me. Eventually though, you've got to pay the piper.
Surely sir, you are not insinuating that Dells tech support isn't the same clean-cut multicultural american group shown in their commercials! How DARE you besmirch the good name of this fine establishment with your slander!
This guy is probably right. Whereas a chainsaw manufacturer can be sued when the chain has a design defect where it whips around and hits the users in the face, and a power company can be sued when a reactor melts down, when software fails dramatically, the company has already given itself an unprecidented disclaimer from liability.
I still have to ask: Why? Why take a subsystem which is already overpowered enough to run the very latest games at their highest detail levels at resolutions most monitors can't even display, and overclock them further?
That has little do do with generations and everything to do with the fact that computer technician just isn't a skilled job in the same sense as a power engineer or Electronic Engineer. The sheer number of kids out of high school or out of some 4 week training course who can do the job just fine is proof.
To be blunt, Through your entire diatrabe about how enlightened you are, I never really saw anything specifically regarding hardware. I saw lower level OS issues, and even a hardware/software interface issue, but not really anything hardware.
Most kids these days think a monostable multivibrator is a sex toy (Actually, it's the opposite). In the end, does it really matter? Only if you're the sort to care about that sort of thing.
Interesting choice of words. I suppose it could be 'Microsoft hating' to dislike getting attacked by spyware over half the internet, or to enjoy full PNG support. I bet that those users who are using the integrated popup-blocker are 'Microsoft haters' as well. Superficial people who like having skins on their browser? 'Microsoft haters'. Power users who appreciate about:Config? 'Microsoft Haters'. People on broadband who crank up the pipelining features? 'Microsoft Haters'.
After all, any practical reasons not to use a certain piece of software fall under the umbrella of hating the company that makes it, right?
Yes, because we totally believe that you came up with that arguement on your own. "Total cost of ownership" is a natural concept which simply develops in natural language, like swear words based around bodily functions.
Recall that we're talking about a console launch here.
I'm not convinced it's physically possible for something big to happen.
"Wow! A console whose hardware is already pitifully underpowered(have you SEEN the numbers for the new dual geforces?) is being released? I'm so underwhelmed I can't even wet myself!"
"I feel a great disturbance in the Force. As if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror 'We're not tools of the man!', and were suddenly silenced by proof that they undeniably were."
Good and evil are constructs of the human mind, and exist only within that world.
The realm of the human mind is not real in any sense of the word. Drugs, electrodes, or any number of stimuli can cause it to alter, making the models, approximations, and abstractions which it uses to understand the real world even more inaccurate than they already are.
Ergo, patents are neither good nor evil, because good and evil are products of a realm which does not exist. Patents themselves do not exist either, becauase they too are products of a realm which does not exist. They are nothing more than concepts which live within someones head and are about as useful as the bag of neurons which store them.
People all around the world are giving up their rights in the name of fighting terrorism. I don't care anymore. It's now been conclusively proven that man is too cowardly to live in a free society, so now we're going back to the other kind.
Steve Ballmer can yell "GIVE IT UP FOR ME!" to anyone he wants! Steve Ballmer does monkey dances all the time and doesn't even think twice about it. This guy is so crazy and awesome that he flips out ALL the time. I heard that Steve Ballmer was eating at a diner. And when some dude dropped a spoon Steve Ballmer screamed "Developers! Developers! Developers!" for like a week. My friend Mark said that he saw Steve Ballmer totally yelled "GIVE IT UP FOR ME!" at some kid just because the kid opened a window.
I have two blogs: my gay-ass blog where I talk about my feelings and my past and my memories, and my political blog with a pretentious name where I speak at length about political stuff which is usually out of step with the 'hot button' topics of the day. Want to hear about defecits? I can help you out.

Because self-righteousness is a greater opiate than Marijuana, and lets the government get away with far more things than Mary-Jane could.

I bid you good day, sir. I BID YOU GOOD DAY.
Any reputable Electronic Engineering course would.

I think, in a grand corporate tradition, we have to ask:
"Is it our problem? If we tell you to go fuck yourselves, will it come back and bite us?"
It's funny that corps want *US* to live by human morals, while *THEY* try to sue 13 year old little girls. Sorry folks, two can play this game.
That's ok. Through lobbying, both media lobbies have effectively stolen fifty years of the public domain.
How about we call it even?
Thousands or millions in debt from an RIAA lawsuit would suck more.

Today I fed my cat. Maybe I should do it more often so it isn't so noteworthy as to end up in my blog.
My Mood: Brooding and depressed -- what else?
Interesting that you totally skipped the part where I have SOLD items at a fraction of their value.
You're just more self-righeous human trash. This conversation is over.
Yes...Buying goods, then selling them at a markup full time is a crime... ...
I've bought AND sold items at a fraction of their market price in the past year. Nothing unwholesome about it; sometimes you need money fast.
According to you, I'm a fence, and probably a thief too.
Yeah. Lay off the self-righeousness.
