Yes, Eve is quite pretty, but that wears off kinda fast.
It's actually getting a graphics face lift, but that is unfortunately tied to Vista and I'm afraid I probably won't get to experience it. (Yep, going to be duel client engines, but they promise to maintain both...)
Eve has some similarities to UO in regards to characters being decided on skills and there is no limit to what you can learn. However, skill points are earned in real time whether you are playing or not. The luxury of having a persistent universe, but without the draw backs of investing horrid amounts of time. You can still enjoy the game if you are just a casual player. This in itself I believe is CCP's one true niche in the world of warcrafters.;)
Give it a try and if you happen to like it... give Trade Consortium a buzz.
Though I would honestly say this is Code Fear Mongering...
The question depicts a scene in which no one can maintain the core bits of the system and then attempts to align that vision with some current hacks.
Yeah, people do odd things sometimes and usually they have a reason. Just because one practice is available does not mean the entire future will take that path.
The most beautiful thing about systems is they can be abstracted on some level or else we would all be lost in a sea of machine language.
Case in point, while not everyone can design and build a motor vehicle from scratch... it's not beyond the reach of man. However, despite all of the intricate complexities of a vehicle will still manage to design and produce them. I wonder why even horribly convoluted software couldn't take a similar approach. (However, I do have my doubts that we will reach that stage in my life time)
Well that is of course the explanation to the whole article summed up!
a) It probably stinks and/or doesn't have pretty graphics. b) They would not be wasting so much time with a game if they could demonstrate such signs of intelligence.
All of the companies we pushed to those "other" nations where labor and emissions laws were significantly weaker are definitely going to listen to us now.
Sure amigo, we are producing less green house gases today! Whatever you say homes.
This is exactly the type of BS I've been talking about!
Look, I bought those seats for an 82 Mustang and they had better fit the new 06.
Ford knew what they were doing when they changed the internal design around and those changes were made entirely to punish the after market product lines.
3. I don't know if I would say confusing... just a little packed... but completely manageable.
4. Hell, all of mine auto-updated with Firefox 2 and worked.
5. I suppose it's a problem, but I just don't run into that often I suppose.
6. I can search and my yahoo account seems to work. Good enough for me!
7. Now, only having used it for about 3 days now I don't really see anything out of the norm. I have had plenty of wigged out FF cases, but that seems to be relegated when I have 80+ tabs open. You betcha. I was kinda happy to see restore tabs on crash and I sorta cringe at reloading a lot of that, but with a six meg pipe I don't feel it.
8. I always wondered why history was buggy with multiple windows + multiple tabs. Speaking out of my ass here, it seems like it should report back in a syslog fashion to the originating process. Maybe it's done that way now and if so... I demand royalties!
9. I was never keen on integrating apps with the browser. I mean, I had to break that addiction when I came to FF and now we are regressing! Let's fix it by gutting it! Honestly, I shouldn't really comment here as I don't use RSS very often.
Has anyone here used the script to make a fake boarding pass? Me, I took a look at the head line and didn't even dare look at the page. I had the feeling it was going to be a bit messy.
I was just wondering if anyone used it and had a visit from the ever so friendly FBI.
Finally, someone was dumb enough to rock the patent boat silly.
Granted, these will probably be killed due to certain issues... like aformentioned blurb mention.
However, it might just be enough to get more people/read common man/ to take notice that something is just a bit wrong. Unfortunately, I don't forsee any great changes to come until wealthy men start losing out to those less fortunate. A good ol' fashioned robin hood approach to the matter could very well upset things just enough to make some real changes.
I will make it quite simple. Rich people don't care if poor get poorer. Rich people don't care if they lose wealth to other rich people. Rich people do care if they lose wealth to poor people. You just can go around upsetting the natural balance of things.
Yes, over the top a bit and a bit absurb, but I think I can get a few people behind my new campaign slogan.
My interest is a little peaked, but they made no mention of details.
If it happens to have either a good amount of fixed storage or expandable storage I'll be happy. Provided the sound quality is good and comes in stereo. Toss in some external controls and I'm a happy camper.
I flipped through some reviews a while back and the only few details reviewers fixate on are either mp3 playback and whether or not it has expandable storage. (no reviews on quality, controls or if it's capable of anything but a single earbud.)
With all of that, I admit the article isn't very newsworthy as it seems to be just an industry buzz piece, but it did get my attention. So now I'll probably peak around for Sprint phones that meet my humble requirements.
Once you have the algorithm you can obviously do anything you want.
I believe that is how they reverse engineered a worm some time ago. If it did not find it's command host it would look to the next generated hostname in it's list. While the domain may not have been registered it would have gone down the list checked generated host after another until it found it's home again. The problem is, once you understand the algorithm it isn't difficult to step ahead of the path.
I can't remember if it was a list or a calculated name based on some globally available parameters... but that is of course the gist.

I use a form, but the e-mail address is kept on the server configs.
A simple form with subject, reply to and message body is then whisked away to a general account.
At that point, it is at our discretion to reply and give out email addresses.
No harvesting possible...
Except when your fellow co-workers send you a lovely e-greeting card! BAM!
Instant harvesting.
All that time you spent setting up those web forms and hiding delicate information from the public... WASTED!
Now, get yourself a good spam filter because no matter what you do... you will be assimilated.

That really doesn't work that well...

I called the power company once and I said the power was out due a transformer blowing.
I said, I just watched the transformer produce some fairly nice fireworks and they might want to come fix it.
The lady told me as soon as they could find the transformer they would take care of it.
I had to repeat myself, I just watched it blow... would you like the address?
At that point she realized I wasn't calling in to complain, but rather report the location.
Nah, they really do need those nano-gadgets

It's a conspiracy!
Not in video games!
Take your hippie ways back to the 60's and leave my virtual worlds alone.
I want cutting edge, razor sharp, earth shatter reality.... and I want it to gut your belly so I can watch the virtual steam rise from the wound.
Now, off with you and your voodoo symbology!
Oh I get to chime in as well!

I can hear a WoW troll shouting -- "For The Hurd!"

Well, if I have to be complete... I wouldn't mind getting myself a little bit of the fifth element.
Sheesh...
Sounds good on paper... hopefully someday it will be true.
Or...
Last man alive, someone just knocked.
I wish I had mod points.

Except...
I bought a rather nice chair for around a $100 nearly four years ago. It's still in great shape and still as comfy as ever.
I had to look around for one that was built nicely *roomy too*, but it was worth the time and testing.
Anyhow, sure you could blow $500 on a good chair or put in some diligence and save a good bit.
It's that primitive hunter's instinct inside of us all!
Just remember, you keep what you kill.
I do hope the trolls pick up on this one.
We need a relevant up to date troll topic.
Trolls are so behind the times with their Natalie Portman fixation.
Maybe where you live that's true...
With a nick like Frosty Piss... I really don't wish to see your work.
Just not my cup of tea... --- Look at the size of that pun!
I couldn't resist.
