I don't think this is a good thing. The Internet relies as much on give as take, and pushing a download-only network is a horrible concept and would hurt everybody involved in the long run.
I agree, however in the case of "last mile" providing, I don't see it as that bad. If you have something to publish, get some web hosting space.
"Women... in essence are more of a gatherer/collector more than they are a visceral hunter-killer. They tend to be more detail oriented, preferring subtlety and complexity over overt skull-crushing over-the-top carnage and mayhem"
I believe this statement,
seeing that my wife's two favorite games are Final Fantasy Tactics and FFT-Advance.
Was the role of the Merovengian explained? I thought that to be clever/significant to be included in Reloaded, being that the Merovengians (in real life) are considered by some to be the holy bloodline.
Yeah, you'd think with the data storage people saying "it decays too quickly" and the environmentalists saying "it doesn't decay quickly enough", someone, somewhere would find a solution.
I long ago ripped my entire CD collection into 128kb MP3s. But I loathed to sell them afterward (legality aside) because I wanted perfect sources around "just in case".
Sure enough, I got it in my head that 128kb was too low, and re-ripped into 256kb MP3.
Realizing the limitations of MP3 even at high bitrates, I re-ripped again into 192kb WMA 9 (whatever you think of Microsoft, WMA 9 is an awesome codec). These rips are virtually indistinguishable from the source CDs. But I'm keeping my CDs for that next format.
I saw Don Box show C# to be a gazillion times faster than C++ doing simple integer math, but what he _really_ was showing (unbeknownst to the VB-heads in the audience) was the wonders of garbage collection.

"That's right!" agreed Geek Website #2. "You'll have a national Geek Web Site strike on your hands!"
"And who might that inconvenience?" said The Rest of the World.
"Never mind who it will inconvenience! It'll hurt, buster, it will hurt!" yelled Geek Website #1.

I've had bandwidth like this for ages between my CPU and RAM.

I'm sure 100% of those are Konquerer users with forged headers.
*rolls eyes*
I keep mine in topsecret.txt.
...is which one of my co-workers contributed to that article.

the pre-level sequences are potentially spoilerish
Yeah, I hear they're releasing the book of the movie before the premiere as well.
Ok, so I'm not funny.
If the patent goes bye-bye, can Microsoft get their $521 million back? With interest?
I'd recommend aspiring developers play BAD games as well. A few minutes with N64 Superman will teach 'em what not to do.
Gads! For a minute there I thought my JonKatz filter broke.

Yes, I'm obsessive compulsive.
They see through things like this.
Safest. Bet. Ever.
I'll gladly volunteer my pager for autoclave survival testing.
He had created a class that did nothing but expose a method to increment an integer. Then he new/delete'd the instantiation over and over again.
Doing this, the C# version was considerably faster - but all that was doing was showing the wonders of garbage collection.
Ah well, .NET still is pretty nice.
I now will be referring to Mandrake's distro as "Cheese Eating Surrender Monkey Linux".
As a person with ADHD, I say... ooo! Look at the butterfly!
Now how about comparing Java with .NET?
Wouldn't they be building a "boot camp" then?

That, and now we realize how badly we were getting gouged paying $49.99 for E.T. on the 2600.
Yuck.
