There is currently a "non-scene" working release available on torrents and such.
Basically someone repackaged the game (manually done some tasks that installer should have done automatically) in a matter of hours.
Question is: why do paying customers get to wait for the replacement "plan" to be put together? Why isn't there a downloadable fix put together by developers? Clearly it doesn't take much time to make.
"Purchase it straight away" button, or something along those lines... We are a community where the mindset of "can't make profit? Litigate !" - and it is only getting worse.
"Kimberly's writings were safe, and the thieves didn't appear to have broken into her e-mail or other personal folders."
How, exactly, do you break into a personal folder? Is double-clicking it called "breaking" in these days? I thought the conventional term was "opening"...
"Why not bypass the Mac..." - because local area networking (even 802.11) is quite a bit faster than your average broadband line? Therefore the videos on a mac could be in high resolution/high quality ones, as opposed to stuff on youtube and such.
Why is it "cooler" to compromise a server than it is to find and report a vulnerability? And, if one is so set on doing some damage - why go after a free service??
Well not really. The guy was known for his snyde and sarcastic remarks towards the machine, and for using a wrong power supply, to underpower the robot on purpose. If i was in robot's...err...shoes, i'd do exactly the same, given the opportunity.
I guess it depends on whether your boss has a sense of humor or not. Come to think of it, it also depends on whether you are indeed "doing jack" all the time...
There are disturbing chat rooms in any chat medium that supports "rooms" as such. However, if my memory serves me right, there used to be a part in MOTD on IRC servers that said something along the lines of "IRC is an unmoderated medium"... If Yahoo is not a moderated place either - who is a judge of what is shocking and what is not? Not that i am advocating sick stuff, and not that i don't see how they (Yahoo) can give in to litigative pressure.. but still?
Happy BD, to the lot of them. Interesting to see how some of them have grown into being huge companies (amazon), and continue to develop, others being manhandled by opposition (Netscape)illegaly, and yet others outdone by fair competition and still being in business (yahoo).

Go Kiwi ! Real proud to call this country my home, and of the people who make it the way it is.
Reminds me how Ali G was wondering why ATF are using dogs, instead of dolphins, who are much smarter.

Technology is a supplement, it is not meant to replace common sense.
Geographically, would it be in Soviet Russia, by any chance?

I don't really have much to say on the matter...but why on earth are there no posts at all? Surely not everyone is like me ?:)

"Just the entirety of the world's knowledge, idiot" -- Well, that will obviously exclude any of your input :)
Finally i'll be able to download the intraweb to my harddrive!

So, who is going to be the first one to welcome our new intestine-crawling robotic overlords? Oh wait...
And how much would one need to spend on the cooling system for this baby ?
I better hurry, because i haven't yet downloaded everything from the *current* intarweb !
So THAT is why....um....nevermind. :)

Those 6 acres on the moon i just bought from them - cannot be developed on?
what about using "should of" instead of "should have" ?
Just as stupid as "your" instead of "you're/you are", methinks.

Gotta rehash own brain... read the above as According to Peter Jamieson, head of the British Pornographic Industry
Now witness the firepower of this fully armed and operational /. battle station
