From TFFAQ: The game's starting point is set some time following the latest movie (i.e. Nemesis). However, there will be missions with storylines and characters from other parts of the Star Trek franchise.
If you had a choice of time settings it would probably be good. Limiting it to TNG era and introducing time travel leads me to believe that they should name it BitchFest- 'cause that's all they're going to get.
What were they thinking when they decided to use a non-descriptive term?
Even though this requires a tinfoil hat, I wonder... Could it simply be a passive-agressive response to pressure they don't want to endure any longer? Basically giving the T-Mobile types what they want but at the same time hamstringing the implementation such that it dissappears from relevance shortly after introduction. Or perhaps make the TLD so obtuse that the support for it wans and it never gets introduced.
Granted it requires an uncommon level of shredness, but still...
The cor problem with remixing is that it takes something already created to make something new and different. Once everyone is doing it, then the core pieces used to create the remix will gradually dissappear. Someone, somewhere has to be making original content- otherwise there is nothing with which to cut and paste. As more and more of the arts become cut and paste, the more degenerative they will become. I think remixing is indicative of less creativety, not more.
Indeed, it is by far the most superior form of networking out there for applications where the uptime must be literally 100%.
Not trolling, but genuinely curious as to what requires 100% up time? When I think along the lines of hospitals, they still have a mainly human workforce, banks close, and the military's systems would have, I would think, extensive redundancy built in in case of battle damage. So what am I not thinking of?
how am I ever going to build my rampaging mini-bot army, without devoting my Gauss-gun budget to portable hotspots...
Not only that, but you'd be comitting the same faux pas of so many other EOs (Evil Overloads)- a central node whose destruction wipes out your army. Believe me, the Trade Federation is seriously regretting their use of WiFi over imbedded instructions.
Obviously, but in addition to denying SCO's motion to Amend, Judge Kimball also set a date this Fall by which SCO must declare with specifity the items on which it will be relying to make its case.
And that friends, is where the nuts hit the grinder.
Of the people I know who get into this simple easily played and dowloaded games, all of them are female. Now granted my universe is small compared to, say, the US as a whole; but I do wonder if the reason the game companies can't seem to court female followers is because they already have the games they are looking for.
It was actually the same ID used maliciously 50 million times. Why the Social Security office SSN 123-45-6789 to Mr. John Smith of Main Street is beyond me...
I realize that most of the/. crows has an anti **AA stance and to a certain extent I do as well. However, it is people like this who cause the damages cited by the **AA types, which in turn lead to the heavy handed **AA policies. It is nice to see those most responsible for the problem caught. Good riddance.

I think it depends on the demographic you are after. I don't think they are shooting for 18-24 year partiers;-)

Considering that a good portion of populace is still fighting against evolution, I think it might be pathalogical at this point.

They considered shortening it to ".mob" but the Mafia threatened a class action for TLD squatting.
I am so stealing this for my .sig. Thanks!
.frog, .kraut, .limey, etc...
And it took me here. I don't get it though, what's so bad about that that they have to write a whole book about it? Weird.

Get an account for everyone. I have 50 invites for you if you're interested;-)

Ah yes, nothing more ironic than pointing out a classic blunder while simultaneously failing to close an italics tag. w00t!

I believe this, or a similar topic, has been covered to death in the "polls" section.

Keep in mind that for every Monet, there's half a dozen Thomas Kincaides.
Let's see him worm his way out of this!
A good start.
The best thing about Lwayer jokes? Easily adaptable to any circumstance;-)

I think any language that pronounces "Svenska" as "Swedish" would ultimately be difficult to master;-)

I can only imagine how well GTA: San Andreas is doing over there...
I wonder how many geeks will try and book room 575?
