The last time they patched was the Great Flood. People complained about the downtime and the fact that most of the characters on the server being deleted. Since then, the developers have tried not to do any patching because of the extreme problems encountered.
You will never find the WWW! In fact, there is no WWW, and anyone who says otherwise is a lying pig infidel! The Marines will never find our WWW, and there are no Marines there now! Now go away, or I will beat you with my shoe!
TVTorrents.com does this now. To download a.torrent, you have to be registered. Once your main download is going, it keeps track of bytes uploaded and downloaded, and if you're leeching or seeding.

I don't know if it's enabled yet, but the plan is to not let you download if your point total drops below 0.
The site is having processing power issues, but seems to be holding up "ok". It's a great place to get some good shows from, though.

With bittorrent, if the file isn't complete, you can't play it at all, not even the first bit.
hehe, when I was stationed over there, I bought a bunch of movies in Kuwait city... great place for illegal copies, since the police really don't give a darn about it.

Look in the phone book under "government services"... it's generally on pages with a blue border or sidebar.
Would watching the Wizard of Oz while playing Dark Side of the Moon be illegal too?
When I got my copy of Chasing Amy signed by Kevin Smith, he didn't say anything about him owning it... (:

Only thing I use altavista for any more is the babelfish... are there any other free automated translation services out there that work better?

DSL shares bandwidth too, before it gets to the final switch and out to their house. Same effect, just different way of doing it.

You obviously missed the episode where he got his driver's license from Marge's sisters who happen to work in the DMV.
