You have a point, but not counting RtCW, when was the last time they released a game with a decent single player story line and character interaction beyond blowing brains out?:)
I know:) But it was ripe for the pickings - I mean, what was the latest non-multiplayer id Software game? Quake 2? Yipee kay-aye, martha fokker. That game's single-player ain't quite the Shiznit.
I hope they've come up with a brilliant single player game as I'm sick of the focus on multiplayer these days. (Which is one of the reasons I'm so looking forward to Doom3)
Hypertext exists specifically for the use they've implemented it. While I'll admit that the terms they underlined were... stupid... at least they had the decency to try. Static pages with no links defeat the purpose of the World Wide Web, as they choose to disconnect themselves from it.
Well, I haven't read the article... but... have you ever tried booting an OS from a RAMDisk? I hear people liked doing that with Windows 3.1 - sort of an instant-on feature. While that sort of blazing speed is unnecessary for most storage needs, it would make operating systems less susceptible to hard drive induced interface lag. And stuff. STUFF!!!
Hey, we have the resources and the technology. But the only real reason to go in to space is to colonize, and there aren't enough Canadians for that.:)
I mean, we have millions of square kilometers of uninhabited land (and some of it is even liveable!), we don't really need to colonize.
I think he's just bitter about the indented code blocks.
I know tons of people who think that Python is the best thing since sliced bread, though my personal preference leans towards PHP. But then again, I'm only working with web interfaces currently, so (IMO) PHP is a tad better-suited to that.

Yes. Hence the use of the sarcasm detector. :)

I smell a sequel ...
About Schmidt 2: Cyber Patrol
Mm ... sex, drugs, and alien orgies. Everything the college years need.
In soviet russia, we sell our FEET for FOOD!
Hmm, I think you broke my sarcasm detector.
Gordon, there you are. They're waiting for you in the test chamber, Gordon.
... :)
I hope they don't go all hollywood on this and do it as a "prequel". Although, that would be quite amusing

THIS POST ISN'T DISCONWEBULATED
Need I remind you that this is *SLASHDOT*?
Naw, I wouldn't blame it on a bad mood. You make excellent points. To summarize:
"Bunnies have teeth. Teeth are for chewing. Duh."
Dogs chew, too. I lost a set of headphones to a dog once. Haven't yet lost anything to a cat.
I feel a sudden need for a link to that picture of the bunny with a pancake on its head.
I was referring to the blue and white stars. I don't have a problem with the windows. :)

No, I meant the blue and white stars on the orbiter. Icky. I want it to be CANADIAN. :)
Same thing :)
And to all those folks who say it's an "ugly aircraft", they need to remember that it's a *spacecraft*. And it's actually *two* craft.
Although I think the paintjob is ugly. Paint a red maple leaf on it or something, it would look way better.
I want to get me one of these ... :)
(And yes, I know that Kirk never said "beam me up scotty")
... look at my user ID! It's too high, someone already took "beryllium" ... :(
And they don't do anything with it, either. Gimps.
As long as people are A) retarded or B) don't listen to corporate policies against this, social engineering will always be an effective tool.
People.
Are.
Stupid.

Doesn't get worse than that, people.
"Hose", like "long rubber hose"? Never buy any drugs from a punkass whiteguy named that. :)
I think the name you're referring to is "José".
And aren't neighborhood crack dealers usually named "Jesus"?
I mean, to buy those CPUs retail would cost about $2000, so this is a really good deal.
... what's that? this is JUST for the OS? Bugger off. That's insane.)
(Wait
I wouldn't want to be their marketing people right now.
