When Luke gets to be 16 there will be a 3-4 episode arc devoted to the cruising culture of Tatooine. Set against the backdrop of his friends signing on to fight in the Galactic Civil War.
I worked in a call center for more time than I would like to admit, and every month or so a new policy like this would come down the pipe. As an act of civil disobedience I made solitare my wall paper, and removed all my icons.
EA used to have a couple of great space adventure games, Starflight, and Starflight 2. The original fit on a single 3.5in disk, the sequel took 2 disks.
Rather than giving children laptops, why dont we work to stabilize thier countrys by helping people become better farmers, teachers, doctors.
Just a thought.
Its either, an FPS/Driving/Sports/or a MMPORG. Rename, Repacakge, Repeat.
I dont mind buying a game new for 50 bucks if its something that will entertain me for a while, but there has been nothing thats grabbed my attention in a long while.
I am unwilling, however, to pay 50 dollars for a game, and then have to pay 10-15 dollars a month for the previledge of playing with my friends online.
How does this process, and biodesiel, compare to E85 in terms of production costs, energy density, and impact on food supply?
Given that the H2O powered fuel cell is the holygrail of power systems, wasn't there a push awhile back to use Ethanol and its easy to break hydrogen bonds as the "fuel" for the fuel cell?
I could see this used as a tool to void warranties. OnStar alerts you to a say a bad sensor, but the vehicle is running fine, then a few months down the road some thing happens to the engine, like a thrown timing belt that bends the camshaft, and suddenly your non compliance with that bad sensor has voided your warranty.
To paraphrase the best bit of evidence proving the moon landing happend:
It was the hieght of the Cold War, if we didnt go to the moon the Russians would have reported the hoax as propaganda...
It takes only a few seconds to alter the default Save as file formats. Set them to thier nearest M$ equivalant, and Im betting only in the rarest of cases will you have compatibility issue with Word/TXT documents.
Im betting the move was not so much a cost savings measure, but more of a "the old man aint happy with it",
I recall seeing an article on/. a while back that covered how computers in the classroom are ruining education.
We should teach kids using the pen and paper method. First teach how its done before we give them a tool to do it for them.
I personally won't buy my child a laptop (recertified or new) until they are responsible enough to care for it.
How many people of the lowest here - the sales and support employees could be saved by dumping say the top 3 wage earners at HP.
Having had to call the support line at HP for a faulty bit of hardware recently I have to say they need more phone agents.
We have acheived a level of comfort that people are happy with, and more convienience is now seen as extravagance.
The big innovations, the ones that change our culture fundamentally are going to come at a cost that most people are afraid to pay. Namely religous beliefs.
Stem Cells, Cloning, Space Exploration, Quantam Computing, all these courses of study have the ability to alter views on creation itself.
And most people are not willing to pay that price.
I hope these "zombies" are the classic Romero lumbering type, because I have read Max Brooks' Zombie Survival Guide, so I can deal with classic zombies.
But if they are the "New, Improved. Reimagined" fast running Zombie, we're screwed.

Last month I got a letter from my bank questioning my transfer activity, I had apparently made too many transfers(8) from my savings to my checking.

The original Playstation controller, it fit my hand, and I found it intuitive. I found it so nice I bought a PC version from Gravis
SNES controller - again I liked the fit of the unit.

I still break them out every few months to play.

I have maybe 50-60 steel pennies from WWII. Why not make them out of something else like steel, or plastic?

Fry got the shaft - no way 'The Thunderbirds', and BSG TOS should be rated higher than Futurama
Our "old school" teachers are retiring and with them the Paper, Pencil & Practice method that worked so well for so long.
Teach kids how something is done before we give them the tools to do the work for them.

Isn't this the niche that a good Student Union fills?

If you want to fight anti intellectualism in this counrty lets fund our schools better, AND remove ridiculous, rules governing what is taught.
Reward students who succeed.
Don't dumb down the curriculm. Itelligent Design is not science
Today was sysadmins day and all i got for my aggrevation was a lousy t-shirt.

Unless you want to go to jail.
IIRC the planet from Pitch Black had 3 Suns
Or was that moon of a gas giant

I agree with you there - 3 boards never a problem.
