By that token, we're also allowed to download/upload any movie which has been broadcast via OTA digital tv.
Sure, getting a DVDSCR 2-3 weeks before the movie releases in theater is wrong, but pretty much any movie > 18 months old is fair game.
Overusing placebo makes people resistant thus making them useless! We all know what happened when we overused antibiotics! We don't want the same thing to happen to placebo drugs
Getting resistant to sugar pills... large portion of the population at least overweight or obese... I'm not sure where the drawbacks here are
Alright then, how about translucent measuring tape that can, at the push of a button, change its display between metric and imperial?
Perhaps one that can add/remove its sub-units of measurement
I.e., if viewing imperial, show only the per-inch markers, add 1/2 inch, add 1/4 inch, add 16/inch, etc..
Similarly with metric, start off at dm, breakdown to cm, mm.
What if we were to now make this translucent retracting display partially refractive (or even better, change the refraction index on-the-fly). Now you could have a magnifying tape-measure that can display the units of measurement scaled to the level of magnification.
Aren't public libraries in your city/town funded by municipal taxes?
I know where I grew up I could get a library card for free in my hometown, but would have to pay a fee if I wanted a card from the neighbouring city.
Similarly here in Toronto, they have fees but if you show some sort of identification (license, bank statement) that shows your address is in Toronto, they waive the fee.
Even if you're a renter, i.e. not paying property taxes, your landlord is paying property tax on the unit you live in, so it's covered.
The difference is (as an Aion player), this 1.9 patch.
With the exception of (2), they're changing everything.
1) Quests give more XP
3) Drop rates are being increased
4) New group-finding/LFG module is being added. It looks a lot to me like FFXI's grouping system, but a lot of fellow players (who came from a WoW background) say it looks a lot like WoW's new system.
With regards to (2), though, I've found that grouping is actually actively encouraged. You can get XP much faster (after level 15) by grouping and running outdoor mob-city zones or instances than you can soloing.
I find it more like FFXI, where if you don't group, you'll get bored and quit, than WoW, where you can get to 80 without grouping.
No, it is directly related to the firmware update.
Granted, noone is forcing the USAF to upgrade the firmware and remove OtherOS support from their currently running PS3s.
Should the existing hardware, the fat PS3s, that the USAF already has fail, then they need to be repaired. Sending them in to Sony would have the unit repaired, and the firmware updated to the latest GameOS-only.
As such, they're not so concerned over not being able to buy new parts (many places cannot buy new parts for their existing systems), but maintaining existing ones.
"A small number", at 10 grand each, is still a hefty chunk of change.
The 2,500 PS3s that they currently have, even at $300 each, is already 3/4 million, but at that price the USAF can have any number of coders working with no additional cost-per-seat licensing.
That additional 10k-per-head wasn't factored into the original RFP which was authorized by the PHBs.
(As an Australian, I'm proud of the fact that we're the only country in the world to have federated in -peace-, not by killing. I don't want to -have- to get violent to support my rights.)

Hi, and welcome to Canada. We also federated in peace.
Of those three, I run only adblock, without issue.
Sibling runs only NoScript, without issue.
Looking at the TorButton extension page, though, it seems there are a lot of bugs in it.
As well, by its very nature (instead of just altering the data feed from servers, like NoScript/Adblock, it actively modifies what FF is doing), I'd guess it could be TorButton.
Again, though, YMMV.
Perhaps there's some other underlying application screwing with things. Potentially not even related to FF.
I think this is a case of YMMV
I've been running Win7 x64 for close to a year (beta => retail), and never had a case of FF crashing, except the odd time when a huge PDF is being loaded through the Foxit PDF plugin.
Perhaps it's one of your extensions that's causing the issue, and not the application itself.
Well, obviously it's to nuke the site from orbit, you know why. Then again, They might just want us to think that. They always do...
Although that is the only way to be sure, it probably isn't for orbital WMD deployment.
Launches usually occur during the day, but they mostly come out at night... mostly.
NASA claims that faking the moon rocks to a degree where they would fool the scientists examining them would have been more expensive than the actual moon landing.
To which I reply it probably would have been.
It was probably cheaper just to buy them off, though.
"Sure, those are real moon rocks, pay no attention to the USD1M increase in my bank balance, or my new tax-exemption status"
I'm not sure what the 2D representation of a torus would be..?
Depends on your perspective.
Viewed from the top (with respect to the hole), it would simply be a circle.
Rotate 90-degrees and it would be a filled-in rectangle.
45 degrees between those two points, two concentric ellipses (or potentially a single filled ellipse, depending on the thickness of the toroid).
Bringing that same toroid up to 4d is the difficult part; we as humans have no actual visual reference to a 4th dimension, in the same way that we can reference a 3-dimensional object in 2 dimensions from different angles.
yea, because there are millions of factories slaughtering cattle and chickens, WE SHOULD DO MORE AND CLUB SEALS IN THE HEAD.
Clubs gotta club, not allowing them to is denying their most basic reason for existance.
If you'd prefer, I can stop clubbing seals and club you and your loved ones...
Now let me get back to the acts that let me fulfil my violent tendencies without resorting to harming other humans.

Bring on the Place-Bo-brand medicinol.
Wii has emulators for every older console available for it, and the classic controller is closer to those older controllers than an xbox-controller.

Easy; "Colonel"
...your cable box is a tuner, albeit a digital one. I use a TiVo which has Netflix streaming built-in.
I think he meant that he doesn't use the built-in ATSC digital tuner that is incorporated into most modern HDTVs today.

How many 'O' do you have in a whoosh?
42.
...what?
or is there some other factor taken into account?
Of course there is, the Ultimate factor.
While technically, you're correct; I was speaking more in terms of campaigns than specific events.
To clarify, USA nuked Japan in only one war.

What problems can't a nuclear explosion solve?
If there are any (and that's a pretty big if), my guess would be that sacrificing minions would be the next logical course of action.
Of those three, I run only adblock, without issue.
Sibling runs only NoScript, without issue.

Yeah I noticed that after posting, and even had a retraction posted within seconds; I guess it didn't submit (or I forgot to click, or something)
In truth, Google doesn't directly convert distance/time to distance/volume. Semantics, really.
I was right, out of context, I swear!
</palmface>
...the good ole USA would have been facing the Japanese on their own.
Someone set them up the bomb...
Oh... wait...
It doesn't directly convert to Rods/Hogshead, though
