Let me be the first to tell you to RTFA: Again, you can't even play when you have the retail cds in a drive unless those programs / virtual drives are removed.
Plus, I understood (and I guess everyone else here too) this fact by reading the/. piece alone. "Got Alcohol 120% on your system? You're a pirate! We don't want you!"
Can't the makes of the virtual drive software sue UBI? Cmon, anyone can sue anyone in this country... let's all have some fun!
Wow... that is a very simplistic way to put things. "New York doesn't have guns: crime high. Vermont has guns: crime low. Let's give people guns and crime will lower, weee!"
Mod me down on this if you will, but this is the same as saying "I have a fishbowl and I'm straight. You don't have a fishbowl so you must be gay."
My boss one came to me saying that he wanted us all to shutdown IM in the office. "It's too distracting".
I asked him how much phone usage dropped after IM. If IM was being used "just to chat" so was the phone, but with IM people could keep working while talking about the latest Survivor episode or American Idol qualifiers. Phone usage for personal purposes dropped to almost zero.
Of course that didn't stop him from keeping with the IM blackout plan.
Multiplay was fun! I would click on my friend's character, which would put mine in "guard" mode. Sit back and relax. Nothing to do. My char would auto-attack anyone attacking him and heal him any time necessary. I did NOTHING for a whole hour.
A DM-module, a-la-NWN would be very welcome on DS2 tho.;-)
What about Fable? I hear there is a new trailer around, but only for registered members of IGN and Gamespot. A BitTorrent link would be much appreciated.;-)
Well, you actually *can* change jobs with your H1B. The visa belongs to the employee, not the company. Of course you have to stay in the same field (IT) etc. but you can find another job.
And do I have to remind everyone that if a company offers less-than-market pay to a H1-B candidate the INS rejects the visa application?
US companies are always saying other countries subsidize local products and that everything should be a "free market", "competitive", yadayadayada.
Now the rest of the world is exporting labour. It's called offer-and-demand. Welcome to the capitalist world.
Same here in "The Big Nada" (aka Winnipeg) with Shaw.
If you guys think "a la carte" == cheaper, wake up. This is a new way for cable companies to make more money from you.
Every single new channel here is "a la carte" for $3/month (same bulk prices as described by LordOfYourPants). I pay $3 for TechTV. Meanwhile all those channels they know people would cancel if they could are bundles with "good" ones in packages, so if you want TLC/Discovery you have to take Family Channel and The Golf Channel.

I second the motion to add Bioware to the list. :)
Don't miss Video computer system.
I will never understand why people feel an overpowering need to force their religous beliefs on other people.
Where I come from this kind of behaviour is called multi-level-marketing.
I am pretty sure he means "around the world". But bleh... who cares about the rest of the world?

Not being a SW-novels reader I ask: would Jedi Academy qualify as Expanded Universe game?

What I did? Installed one with a boss-key. ;)
Sure, after all spammers are all legal companies in the USA ready to pay taxes.
It looks to me that most (good) board games these days are translated versions of German games.
This could not necessarily mean that boardgames are not as "an important market" in the US as in Europe, but it says a lot...
So "American protestors" should just shut up not because they would get killed for their ideas, but because they are NOT?
And we finally have proof God is, indeed, Brazilian...

I was going to ask when theme parks were going to start to use this technique, but I guess this answers it all...
I also find this site very complete. And I have my own picture of a Toynbee from Philly. ;-)
And you smell like pee and poo. And my father can kick your father's ass in a second.
In other words, just in case you don't get it: people... grow up, OK?

That's the price for a console game. I feel that pain everytime I play my XBox version of Morrowind... no mods at all. :(

What about the US start using the metric system for all other measurements first? Then we can talk, OK? :)
How many feet does a mile have again? Geeeez...
And since when the american govt cares about the rest of the world?
Just wondering... Is this the digital equivalent of the American right-to-own-a-gun?
/. and I never do that ! :)
This subject is so absurd that made me actually post something on
