I'm sorry, but fuck you and the horse you rode in on, you cluless bastard. If it takes a gun to the head or a golf ball sized chunk hafnium to keep these freaks in line, so be it.
No sadly "they" just hold the same attidute you. This isn't ment as a troll but the problem clearly is that people see weapons as the answer.
just remember if you fight fire with fire you are going to burn a hell of a lot of innocent people in the process
considering the amount of money nindento will likely invest into the suit and how much they woudl expect to sell they are at a minimal disadvantage and when you consider that their defence is much stronger now this would be the best move for them. clearly they have had legal advise on this.
This is'nt just about honor though. MyDoom is inconvincing and costing millions of people who are in no way involved with SCO, which if we encourage would make us worse then them.
the advantage of the "holes" is that it allows you to have other applications visable in the background and offers far more flexability. just beceause you personally may not have a use for it dosn't mean that there isn't one.
and most people who use image editors dosn't do graphics proressionally
playing a game where you kill simulated people is significantly diffrent to honing your skills to kill. while playing games like counter strike may have impackted on the individuals violent reactions i am sure there are many more influences that contributed more to the individuals violent reactions.
games may impact upon us but they are not solely capable of distorting a mind to such an extent.
at 30 points that's only 3 goals and as there are three goal hoops and only one keep it makes the snitch too insignificant. i think that 150 points might be a little too high but i does need to be a ratehr high amount becease i imagine it can't be too difficult to score particually (as you might note in some of the books players have caught the snitch and not won).
umm it wasn't the british publishers who changed it it was scholastic (the us publishers) as you might note the book was first released and written in Britain, so i'd say it's a fair chance that they're not the ones who made the changes.
actually it's all becease nintendo australia don't think that's what the australian public wants. we never got harvest moon 64 beceaes they seem to think we don't want to play heavily japanese games. unfotunatly this means we only get hte really big games or so it seems and the games i really want to play never come out here.
what about the massive amounts of shoujo in existance which is often very much not sci-fi. there is also a load of medieval anime too. i won't bother to mention hentai
lain was reletivly deep, yes a lot of the stuff was taken from ideas (largly early mac concepts) but there was some real depth in the plot largly derived from lains interactions with society.
no i'm sure a number of the others were published becease if you look in the cover of some of the earlier publications it mentions the other books writen by tolkien. unfortunatly i believe they must have gone out of print as i have been looking for a few of them since early highscool.
though when i was somewhat younger i did read the father christmas letters (my first introduction to tolkien)
that seems quite prabable. as far as i could tell the rerelesce of the playstation was just PS1. also to my knowledge that's why they called hte original the PSX rather then just the PS. though this is just my interpritation of it.
is a games quality judged by the killing and blood in the game. yes i enjoy "mature games" (fallout) but i also enjoy a number of games that are viewed as childrens. so i don't see why everyone makes such a big deal about this issue. how good a game is should be based on it's gameply rather then if it's mature or not.
yes but being untested the risk is in if it will work (plus most modchips are tested), microsoft are making sure if it works you won't be able to go on.
yes but the x-box still works. you're just banned. it's a very diffrent scenario. becease you can look at the car and see, or test the car and see but with the x-box you don'tknow untill you try to get online. plus it need not be banned, microsoft delebraty ban it.
if the car manufacture made it so that the car would do that when submersed in water when it woudln't have had they not tried delebraty done so then i would blame the car manufactur.
and so i would blame microsoft.
As for modded xboxes banned on XBox Live, I think that is fine, but as one is subscribing to a service, I would certainyl hope that refunds would be offered to people who bought the service and were unable to use if for any reason.
i also think that it's unfair that people are blocked forever. them saying that once someone has been found with a modchip they should be banned forever beceause they're deemed untrustworthy. particually if someone installed one in order to play games they imported rahter then illegaly copied games, which to my knowledge are still legal here in australia.
what bothers me most about this is that people may have bought an x-box to play online modded it for either linux or inported games and be banned and thus they essencally bought the product under false pretences. while i dought that would be sufficent to permit legal action it still is wrong that it was announced only once people started getting banned.
as the article mentioned it is unlikly that the cost of the sims will decrese becease of the advertising deal. this means that the users don't benefit from it but get stuck with annoying product placement.
bullshit do you know how much origianl hentai sex is not fuzzed out. i don't know where you got this from but i assume you've encounted very little hentai. go to some japanese hentai sites and translate them through google (not that you need them translated) and i'm sure you will find at least one that's not censored.

i thought that was the point of the post. in refrence to the graphite cracking the dimond anvil.

and i assume that they wanted to give people passwords to edit the sites and allow people to create new sites.

thus proving that god exists, yet since god refused to prove his existence that in turn proves god does not exist
It's as insulting as us watching spagetti westerns and referring to Americans as cowpokes and asking for glasses of redeye and sasperilla.
you mean americans don't do that? well i guess i sure am glad that there are no stereotypes about us australians.

using their modded XBoxen to build an underground, alternative gaming network. Now that'd be a hack!
what would be even better is if you required a modchip to play. now that would really piss them off

well i guess Godzilla or Gojira was originally thought up as a result of food so you may be right. a little background info
