I completely agree with Sliders. I really loved the series. But at the time Prof. Arthuro died it went downhill, fast. At a certain point it was only about those "aliens". A real shame.
I don't know Lua, except for its name. But I do know UnrealScript very well (the scripting language of the UnrealEngine), a language that was written with games in mind.
Lua is just an interpreted programming language right? So you still need to create bindings from the game to the Lua environment. How difficult is that to do? How does Lua compare to using Python (for example) as script language? What makes Lua so great? Nothing about that in TFA, just some examples where it's used.
The current ESRB rating is flawed? Please tell me, how is it flawed? And how could the ESRB playing the game more than once before rating it even change anything (specially in the case of San Andreas).
I finished the game and I didn't see any "hot coffee" in the whole game. Granted, I didn't install the patch to enable it (which was released after the game was rated and released). How could the ESRB make their ratings more comprehesive? Do the need to include graphical examples of what they mean with "Intense Violence"?
If you don't understand the current rating your are mostlikely too stupid to play the game anyway.
(24 yr old nerdy programmer that also playes games a lot, including very extreme violent games that according to some will make me kill people just for the fun of it, that isn't to weak to start a fight but never has, never got any ticket, except movie, train and amusement park tickets, for anything. But if you don't listen to me I might even consider to hunt you down and shove my opinion down your throught, or maybe not;) )

Does that mean I will have to start shaving on a regular basis?
I prefer MUTT http://www.mutt.org/
And I use Zoe to search through my mail (not that it happens that often), all I need is Zoe inside my MUTT
Does this mean we can import and play the HD-DVDs of movies that have yet to come out in the theatre here in Europe? (without special hardware)
I wonder what the movie industry thinks about this.

PS, this doesn't hold up on Debian systems:
apt-get install mysql-server
vs
apt-get install postgresql
the latter is less typing.

You'd think, but why make the games cheaper when you're getting the money anyway.
If you ask me, neither one should be in control.
Crap, I renamed the user "Administrator" to "root"
They've got a serious David and a serious Ben. But no Sam?
It's it an unsuccesful attempt to violate IP rights? Afterall, you will never be able to get the complete package.

No attack? what about brute force? It's an attack, not a good one, but it is an attack.
Guess now I really have to start seeding files. Thank you for spoiling it for me.
Does this make things easier for computers?
Would be very nice to have a performance boost at the math level for 3D calculations.
I wonder how many times Jack Thompson visited this site.

uk.com isn't a TLD, so who cares. Why do you want a ?.uk.com domain anyway?
How are they going to earn that back from a "free" VoIP service?
Let's create another bullshit top X list or otherwise our visitors will go away.
How long until the top 10 of "top 10 lists"?
Tell everybody to type in the URL instead of clicking on it.
Nobody is going to type those long URLs, so they won't even visit those pages.

mysql has 5 letters
postgresql has 10 letters
so clearly, postgresql has twice the letters, a clear victory if you ask me
