I remember first playing Zelda 1, walking straight to the first level right away. Maybe I was just lucky, or maybe the map design was so clever that it tilted me in that direction.
No, it was because the came with a map leading to the first level printed on a piece of paper.
Quid Pro Quo means "An equal exchange or substitution." I believe the more modern translation which even preserves the poetical quality of the original is "tit for tat".

The cannon in the former link was point of great controversy here in the early 90s because Austrians sold those to Iraq AND Iran during the First Gulf (Iran-Iraq) War. You know, because we are a Neutral country. Trust an Austrian when he calls something hypocrisy. We know that in and out.
>(Just out of curiousity, are you allowed to own >them?) It's the standard sidearm for our police.
It is rather hard to get a weapon license (which allows you to OWN a firearm, and transport it to the gun range or hunting grounds), and almost impossible to get a "weapon carrying permission" which allows you to carry it on your body.
If you have one of those permissions, it's no problem to have a Glock though.
Prediction: Under the premise that "Scouring" scenes have been shot at all, some "Extended DVD Collection" will contain the "bonus" ending scenes.
Short cuts fasing in and out with some slow happy music playing, and at the end a four-line dialogue when Frodo joins the elves and Gandalf leaving Middle Earth.
Agent Smith is the only "human" in this world. He's the one spreading himself like a virus replicating himself over and over until the Matrix will finally get overloaded and fail.
Why should it? Smith simply hijacks existing programs/matrix_personae, he is not a forkbomb.
How about protocols like BitTorrent? Although I might "share" a file, I never give away the whole thing. I only offer very tiny bits of a file to anyone who asks.
AFAIK, copyright law permits giving away small"excerpts" of copyrighted materials.
So provided I never permit upload of the whole file to a single downloader, would I be in the clear?
... and I'm serious, how come for the last 15 or so slashdot story headers (and the text below too) I felt like going "fuck you, that dosn't concern me at all".
There is no way to save this post to go be mod'd into "-1 Flamebait" oblivion anyway, so I'll just post my theory: I don't live in the land of the alleged Land Of The Free.
BTW, if you're offended by this, don't bother to reply. Please.

This is true for very true values of false.

Yeah, well we make other great stuff too.

I haven't a clue if this is right; it could be a start, but probably isn't.
True, true, and true.

So are centipayments - a micropayment is not 5 cents , 10 cents (decicent) , but fractions of 1 cent, milli for 100ths micro for 1000th.
Except if we're talking U.S. Dollars' cents they sould prolly be called something like furcents or sixthcents.

It is full of Cynism. Sarcasm is what sometimes makes it beareable.

Yeeah. Right.
